Jaebrin
Jaebrins are fey whose fearsome teeth belie an impish nature. Their powers of enchantment, and their immunity to those same effects, make them tricky opponents and untrustworthy allies. Jaebrins are outcast drifters that enjoy tricking and entertaining mortals. Jaebrins were formerly the jesters of fey courts. Fey nobles delighted in enchanting jaebrins to perform silly or weird acts. For their part, the jaebrins reveled in their role, seeing entertainment as a great service. Eventually they built up a strong tolerance to enchantment. For a number of centuries, they hid this fact from their masters and learned to fake being under the sway of enchantment. In time, fey noble after fey noble discovered the ruse and lost interest in the jaebrins. The forsaken fey were shamed into self-imposed exile. Jaebrins now make their way as merchants, charlatans, and swindlers. Others bring merriment as bards, and a few exploit their talents by becoming sorcerers. Such jaebrins might even seek the excitement of adventuring.
