The Widow of Wykmaren

[Le Noir Faineant]

Hello all,

I've been reading the VRG: The Shadow Fey these days, and I've got interested in the tale of the Widow of Wykmaren. Has anyone used this motif for his a game? - The basic idea itself is pretty old, I recall such a tale of eternal aging from Greek mythology.

So, what were your experiences, or, what would you make out of it?

Yours,

Rafael

So the Widow will remain alone and fade away...

Is that the story where her fey husband goes awol and leaves her to be tended by other fey. Not a bad idea for a curse or failed powers check.

Yeah, that's the story. I wonder how one could make this an adventure... My party will have to cross a *feywood*, and I think this could be a very nice encounter on the way...

Good idea.
I'm thinking of using it on a power hungry PC as a curse or power check. He's eventually gonna fail one its only a matter of time, and I use fey in my games alot more now that I got VRGttsf.

Ah, this VRG is really one of the book in the entire RL line, especially because so much info is so generic...
