Faes were one of Asheron's Call unused creature ideas (The word "Fae" is also another word for fairy [1]). They were possibly the inspiration for the creature that is now known as the Remoran based on comments made by the artist behind the Remoran:
- "we will also be introducing another brand new creature – the deep sea dwelling Remoran (some of you may recognize this creature; it has been a part of our data for years though it did receive a substantial facelift)!"[2]
- "Remoran and Margul had basic beginnings in some very old assets that inspired the actual in-game monsters."[3]
Two images, one found in the AC data files and a screenshot (named Faes.gif) from the Asheron's Call beta site look very similiar to the Remoran.
