What sort of fey like things would you find living north of waterdeep, but just a bit south of the spine of the world?

If you are looking for fey creatures that live in cold climates, I would think of Frost sprites. But I'm sure there are references of fey creatures in some of the northern woods, like the Moonwood, in canon sources. Are you asking because you want further details over a pre-existing source, or is it a general question?

PS: The reference I give you is 2e, I'm pretty sure the Frost were converted to later editions. And with all respect to Tom Baxa (I'm not a huge fan of his artwork), ignore the art and focus on the description.

"Goodness is not a natural state, but must be
fought for to be attained and maintained.
Lead by example.
Let your deeds speak your intentions.
Goodness radiated from the heart."

Korreds live in the north. I'm sure satyrs and dryads and hamadryads also abound.

I've always wanted to see Korreds fleshed out a bit more; their god is extremely odd. Korreds dance like madmen to him once a week, giving him some of their life energy. Guests are forced to dance too, who give him even more of their life energy (unwillingly). He's essentially a parasitical soul-vampire god.

Does the High forest count? Its Northeast and a little south of the spine of the world.

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail
