Evil Faerie vs Evil Demon

[mlangsdorf]

Elder Things are explicitly extradimensional creatures (DF2 Dungons p 21). Faeries are implicitly not extradimensional creatures (ibid). DFRPG is more explicit on Monsters p 14, specifying that Elder Things are not living things.

It's your game and you can do what you want at your table, but mundane Elder Things is a significant change from the DF and DFRPG rules. Fae being from the dream realm is a clever take, but it's also a change if Fae can be Banished by the spell.

The Elder Things in my game are Extradimensional but tied to mundane reality. When the Divine created the universe out of the primordial chaos, they shunted the Elder Things into other dimensions of the universe which overlay the mundane universe. So the Elder Things are basically in the mundane universe, just out of phase with it unless the stars are right. The heavens, hells and faerie realms are separate planes though.
