And here lies the thread to explain our more mortal species here on Midnight Shadows. If you have any questions, feel free to ask an admin!
HUMANS:
The human's are pretty self explanatory, they are your every day people just like you and me. For the most part, normal humans have no idea that the Fae exist, they cannot see them and when they do see them, they appear to be entirely normal. There are the random cases where humans accidentally stumble "underhill" as it is called, or are taken there by the Fae. Humans tend to be enchanted by them, because of their magic and their looks and often can be taken in by the glamors that they weave.
From time to time, Fae to take humans as "pets." Certain Fae have the ability to use their magic to enchant humans further to make them slightly obsessed with them, though often humans only stay for a "year and a day" as the old lore goes. Though once they have eaten Fae food, they are pretty doomed...after eating the food of the fae, all others taste like sawdust.
SIGHTED HUMANS:
Sighted Humans do not carry any of the delusions that regular humans have. They can see right through any glamor that the Fae can weave, and even when the Fae are trying to remain hidden from human eyes, the Sighted can see them. Sighted humans get the trait from one of their parents, and it travels through a family line. It is not something that just springs up some day, usually it goes back for generations. Sighted Humans are taught not to look directly at a Fae, because that would give away that they know the Fae are there and thus give away that they are sighted.
All children are sighted until they reach the age of ten, this is because children still believe in Fairy Tales ^_^
