Do Fey have a particular race or ideal they dislike?
Best Answer
Traditionally, that would simply be other fey. Fey are often divided into two or more “courts,” usually “seelie” or “summer” vs. “unseelie” or “winter,” though going with a court for each of the four seasons is not uncommon either. The Courts Seelie and Unseelie were used in Dungeons & Dragons, including the 3.5e that Pathfinder is based on. Seelie is “good” and unseelie is “evil,” but these terms mean different things to fey than they do for celestials and fiends. They are much more about the natural forces of growth and decay than they are about morality, and in any event their fey minds are near-completely alien to mortals’. Fey Courts are often highly political, as the name might suggest, and in D&D the courts have a strong presence in interplanar politics.
However, Golarion specifically eschews the fey courts, instead having the First World of the fey “ruled,” as much as such a word applies to the fey, by the “Eldest.” The Eldest are like demigods, and have a lot of ability to shape the First World so their realms are similar to the divine realms of the gods. But most of the First World isn’t really under the sway of any Eldest in particular. The First World doesn’t engage with planar politics, and so the concept of an “enemy race” does not really apply to them.
In the section on Armor for Unusual Creatures, it breaks it down into humanoid vs non-humanoid, but as we can generally see from creatures like centaurs and driders, they have a trait called "undersized weapons" which allow them to use weapons as fit for a medium humanoid. Most GMs I've seen (including me) have said that if the creature wears armor, its fit for a medium-sized humanoid as well. This isn't backed up in RAW as far as I can tell, but it isn't far out of the realm of possibility.
I'd see the armor section as more of a body-type rather than race-type classification. This also covers more "standard" races that are non-humanoid, like Aasimar and Tiefling.
Spells
Spells explicitly targeting a type of creature go by race-type, not body-type. So they are playing with the same restrictions as any race with the "outsider" type, such as Aasimar and Tiefling, in that spells that target humanoids do not work on them. For instance Enlarge/Reduce Person will not change their size, but on the flipside Charm Person also has no effect on them.
When an article of magic clothing or jewelry is discovered, most of the time size shouldn’t be an issue. Many magic garments are made to be easily adjustable, or they adjust themselves magically to the wearer. Size should not keep characters of various kinds from using magic items.
There may be rare exceptions, especially with racial specific items.
You see, the rules insist that any character should be able to use most magic items. Size should not be an issue.
How you narrate it is up to you and the DM. Either you say the potion magically shrinks to appropriate size, or only a small portion of the liquid is sufficient to make the magic work (and the rest of the liquid nonmagical), your variant. Rules are not made to limit your imagination, only to make the game properly balanced. Just make sure that the effect of the potion does not change.
