Fae
From Guiltypleasures
Fae, also known as Sidhe or Elves, are genetic descendants of Neutral Angels, cast out of Heaven. Fae are divided into two courts; Summer and Winter, and then the scattered Solitary Fae. Fae are regarded by most races as creepy at best, since normal moral concepts often cannot be applied to Fae. The Fae live in a parallel plane to the mortal realm, known most often as Faerie (also refered to as Underhill in some texts). Generally, Solitary Fae are the ones that interact most often with mortals, although most cannot tell the difference, and attribute their actions to all Fae.
Fae are immortal creatures, having no real end to their natural lifespan. Every Fae is born with an aspect/type, and the ability to use Glamour. They can interbreed with humans easily, and their children are fertile, allowing for glamour to pop up in odd places. Fae are generally ammoral, as they generally don't have much concept of 'good' or 'evil' besides what is relevant to them and the people close to them. Fae view lesser immortals, undead, and mortal creatures as lesser creatures, as a general rule, and the way they treat them depends on the Court the fae belongs to.
Fae are killable, although it's generally hard for creatures not on the same power rung as fae to do so. They are extremely susceptible to 'cold' (unforged) iron, which acts as a poison to them, and burns them to touch. Normal iron can make them somewhat queasy if it is pure, and in large amounts. The traces of iron in food does them no harm. Other than that, Fae are fairly resistant to damage, but are still quite killable by traditional mortal wounds.
The fae immune system is a curious thing, as while they tend not to catch major diseases like STDs and cancer, they can catch other illnesses. No extensive study of fae immune systems has been made, mostly because they don't care.

Twins/Triplets
Fae, like every bloody other society, have their own little superstitions and whatnot. Twins are usually seen as a sign of misfortune, since they're so rarely born, and twins working together can be devastatingly powerful. Imagine casting a spell with someone who knows exactly what you're doing and how to augment it without even asking. Twins are usually born with the same type, which usually doesn't help their case any. Now, the other major superstition I'm going to mention is time magic. Time magic makes people nervous, naturally...controlling a natural force that powerful is scary, after all. Fae typically shun those with time magic at best, and attack and harrass, if not outright kill those unfortunate souls at worse. As you might imagine, being born as twins with time magic? Not so good. Both twins and time fae have fairly low chances of surviving to even adolescence, and those that do tend to be rather bitter about the whole affair.
Triplets, however, while being even rarer, are regarded as a good omen, since good things come in threes. Thus, triplets are generally treated extremely well.
Subraces
The fae, much like any ancient species, have developed subraces, types of fae that aren't quite fae, but aren't something entirely different, either. Simple genetic mutations, recurring over generations and generations, are to blame, which has allowed them to use their glamour in different ways. For example, one subrace, the pixie, have channeled the magic to alter their size.
