My MC is one-quarter Faerie, and his mother is half Faerie. The Fey in my world are like those in Celtic mythology--capricious, sinister tricksters who have no qualms against using their magic on humans. My MC and his mother both display emotional, mental, and physical Faerie traits. I'm having some trouble with the mental/emotional traits. I have a few established: inappropriate displays of emotion (like laughing at a funeral), violent mood swings, taking pleasure in tricking/playing pranks on others, alternation between intense focus and distraction. Do you guys have any more suggestions for traits?
Plus, I need some help showing my MC's "otherness" in his thoughts, actions, and judgments. What are some techniques I can use to give his narration an alien touch?
Thanks, guys!
