They would receive some minor expansion in 1996's "On Hallowed Ground", in the form of a clear-cut table denoting their areas of concern, holy symbols, and places of residence in the cosmological setting of Planescape. These gods first appeared in the 1992 sourcebook "Monster Mythology", which looked at the gods of the various non-human races. Then 5e rolled around, and all the Fae got lumped together into a single inner plane called the Feywild, which filled roughly the same cosmological niche as the Positive Energy Plane did in prior editions (emphasis on "roughly", since the Positive Energy Plane is still around, it's just been moved to "outside" of the Great Wheel rather than being part of the Inner Planes). In comparison, the Unseelie Court was located in Pandemonium, where it served as the underlings of the outcast fey goddess known as the Queen of Air and Darkness. They inhabited a wandering demiplane that shifts between the Upper Planes as it sees fit, mostly wandering between the Beastlands, Ysgard and Arborea. In the Great Wheel, the archfey were first introduced as the Seelie Court, a cluster of deities united by their shared patronage of various fey races. ![]() Part 1: Historical uses of the Archfey in D&D
