The Third Race/Oberon's Children
The Third Race, also known as Oberon's Children, were magical, shapeshifting, and often fickle creatures and fairies from around the world. They were not all literally descended from Oberon, but he was their leader and he governed all of the Third Race strictly. They possessed incredible powers, were immortal, and had a fatal weakness to iron. Regardless, as long as they were in the real world, Oberon forbade them from interfering in human events.
