Fey Day

Fey Day was an event held during the vernal equinox (Ches 19). It represented the veil between Prime Material plane and the faerie realm of the Feywild.

Description
The barrier between the Feywild and the Prime Material Plane was weakened on this day and the influence each realm had over each other was at its height. While rural areas were trepidatious and held many superstitions on this day (avoiding the forests, leaving confectionery treats on their porches, and the like), in Waterdeep it was a day of celebration.

The nobles hosted lavish masquerades, while the lower classes attired themselves in homemade disguises and went around soliciting temporary access into the celebrations in exchange for entertaining the crowds. All costumes were those of fey beings and the greater powers of the Feywild, such as Titania, Damh, Squelaiche, and others of the Seelie, and conversely Unseelie, Courts. Anyone not looking to have a good time was cautioned to stay home, as those in the streets were looking to evoke joy.
