Fey
Fey refers to a vast number of races under a general umbrella of somewhat magical races having connections to nature and the realms of their origin.

In many realms Elves are classified as Fey and conversely in many realms Fey are considered elven races. The specificity of the difference depends on the shadow under consideration.
Entish
Entish is a general name for sentient plants of many kinds that do not sustain themselves through magical means. Some forms of sentient plant life are magically intelligent, possessed of spirits, or recipients of magical intellect and do not fit in this category.
