DFRPG / Re: Suggestions for stories of the Fae

The Changeling's mother is a Nixie who is presurring the Changeling to make a decision. Human or Fae. Mom had an annoying habit of showing up whenever and where ever the mood hit her. Usually caused a scene.
During character creation it was decided that the Emissary got Mom to leave the Changeling alone. They haven't really established how that was done and the Changeling doesn't know that is what caused the Emissary to become an Emissary. Basically his bargain to get Mom to go away, was to become marked by power. (Note: I think I'm confusing the templates he used. Unfortunately all my notes are at home...darn work! lol) He has the high concept of Friend of the Summer Lady.
So I opened the game with him receiving a package labeled: To: Changeline c/o Emissary. I figure if he's the reason she can't talk to her own daughter, then he can play messenger boy. The present was a birthday present to the Changeling. Nothing funky about it other than its fae made and very expensive. (At least at this point there isn't.)
So that's where we are. The Emissary has had an affinity for fae since he was a child (he's able to walk into the nevernever--I'm awaiting for the day I tell him that he's opened a door and stepped through into a field of flowers or something. He is used to accidently walking in his backstory, but it will be fun.).
I guess my issue is what would a fae want of a mortal? I know there are politics, but I have no idea where to start with that...
Oh and the Emissary has a fetch that has been popping up randomly through his backstory. He wants me to flesh out why, etc. I'm think the next time it appears it might be sent by mommy....
