The Little People

Sometimes helpful, sometimes harmful, fairies were once both feared and revered for their magical powers and winsome ways. The Little People is an excellent source for historically accurate fairies and includes:

• Information on fairy characteristics, culture, and their interactions with humans
• A unique perspective on how fairies differed among Celtic regions
• 3^rd Edition stats for all the famous ones you know such as Oberon, Puck, and the Leprechaun
• A system for creating original fairies of your own
• Suggestions for incorporating fairies into your campaign

Not some "bold, new vision" of the fey, these are the fairies as they were perceived by the people who believed in them.

The Little People is a supplement for the book Celtic Age and benefits from being used with certain custom mechanics introduced in that book. Originally published in 2002 by Avalanche Press, this classic is being brought back into publication by Tabletop Adventures.

What is this?

Tabletop Adventures has acquired a line of historical fantasy material previously published by Avalanche Press, Ltd. and we are excited to be re-issuing this classic series of sourcebooks from 20 years ago. While the game mechanics offered are those of the 3^rd Edition of the “world’s best-known roleplaying game,” the excellent historical material and its fantasy applications could be useful with any system.

Aside from the ‘packaging’ and certain legal bits, the text is identical to that found in the original books published by Avalanche Press in the early 2000s. The writing and the conventions (including, for example, the designation of Open Game Content) represent the styles of the early years of 3^rd Edition and should be approached from that perspective.

Many of the original covers had artwork that was suggestive (or even provocative), so as a nod to that, each book of the series is being reissued in a ‘plain brown wrapper.’
