The Tir Na Nog is OUT!!!!!

Nothing new right?

Now that FASA has gone to great deal to spell out the fate of
Ireland, I noticed something was missing....

!!!!!!!! LEPRECHAUNS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, they are a pretty powerful myth. Most of the others
have made it into the 6th world- The Wild Hunt, Lycnathropes,
Vampires, etc..

What about the wee folk?

I have been toying with a strange idea that is way out in
left field.

I was considering designing current leprechauns after free
spirits. The only thing is that the Power of the Myth (tm)
compelled them to gain certain spirit powers over others.

For instance, perhaps a King of the leprechauns would have
the power of Wealth, in the form of a pot of gold.

Subsequent leppers :) might be forced, by the power of the
myth, to take on Hidden Life (a Pot of Gold), wealth, etc...

Ideas? Comments? etc....
