Oh, fae absolutely exist. I haven't met any directly, but I've met some who were stolen and came back. They're probably more shy about public knowledge than Kindred are, so keep that under your nicest demon hat. Otherwise, though, there's other theories. Blood mixing between two other clans, a curse, that kind of thing. All of them are just believable enough that it's hard to be sure of any one of them.

Sometimes it's very nice to be off your game, but I only ever smoke for that.
