![]() For me, origin locations like these restore that missing element in spades. I think I like the presentation of these places as character origins because people sometimes complain about missing the "magic and sense of wonder" of gaming that they felt in their youth. Well, whatever else you might want to say about it, the Feywild isn't boring. Buried cities of malformed giants, twisted inside nightmare tunnels. Icicle-fortresses of glacial spires, keeping watch over a frozen land. Shimmering ruins that shift between worlds. Timeless forest cities whose very existence is art. ![]() Crystal stone towers that sparkle like starlight, with ancient noble houses full of corrupt and treacherous politics. I haven't necessarily been a fan of every 4e rulebook, but this one gets it right. Instead, story and new options are beautifully intertwined, with art and prose that complement the game rules perfectly. This book is a far cry from early 4e rulebooks that focused solely on rules and left out story. The Feywild takes the role as the traditional land of faerie, full of strange magic fey lords and ladies of incomparable power and foul, twisted things that prey on children and the unwary alike. In Heroes of the Feywild, players gain options for embracing the Feywild and using the world's bright reflection as a source of power. This extraplanar wilderness of deep forests and jagged mountains is largely unexplored for a reason, being inhabited by fierce beasts, vicious fey, and primal giants. ![]() Player's Option: Heroes of the Feywild (2011) does a superb job of tying characters into the primal power and untapped magic of the Feywild. ![]() The book explores what makes fey-themed characters so fun and distinct. ![]() Characters who trace their origins or backgrounds to the Feywild gain access to unique feats, powers, and mechanics. This book contains exciting new character builds and options that are thematically rooted to the Feywild, a wild and verdant plane of arcane splendor, full of dangerous and whimsical creatures. Player’s Option: Heroes of the Feywild enables players to weave elements of the Feywild into their existing and future characters, in much the same way that Player’s Option: Heroes of Shadow gave players reasons to explore their characters’ dark connections to the Shadowfell.
