 Fauns
Fauns possess an interesting blending of traits; they are mischievous but not hedonistic like satyrs, and are refined yet not fastidious like humans, elves or many of the other "civilized" races.
Fauns instead quest for new experiences and inspirations for their inner muse, although they are also attracted to objects of great beauty such as jewelry and artwork.
Faun adventurers tend to invest the majority of their spoils into a small number of highly ornate items (such as musical instruments or magic items) and give the leftovers to friends or donate them to charity.

 Vampire, Suki Rae, Paula Obe, FAUN FABLES
The tunes of Faun Fables also echo the mischievous mythos of the group's namesake: reed-playing Pan, the Greek god of forest and meadow, a Dionysian reveler with a lusty streak of abandon.
The simplicity of Faun Fables' music is deceptive; it acts as a modest backdrop for the endlessly complex worlds embodied in McCarthy's every vocalization.
This depth is brought into striking relief on the a cappella number "Beautiful Blade," where McCarthy and Frykdahl multitrack their voices into undulating chants, evoking an eerie hymnlike ambience that falls somewhere between the hypnotism of the Bulgarian Women's Choir, Led Zeppelin's near-mythic mysticism, and an operatic netherworld.

Trials were held secretly and usually conducted in Latin by the clergy; the accused was held incommunicado and sometimes languished for years between his arrest and his trial; no cross-examination by defense counsel was allowed; there was no court of appeal; and the accused was punished secretly.
The Marble Faun is also much concerned with Italian art, at least with sculpture; this fact and also the circumstance that historic spots are picturesquely described, have made something of a glorified guide-book of the romance.

 The Dancing Faun of Pompeii
his captivating faun was standing in the center of a pool before one of Pompeii's most sumptuous houses when the ash and lapilli of the 79 A.D. eruption of Vesuvius completely covered the doomed city.
His laughter, his dancing, his agile vibrating figure were hedonistic symbols of the full life sought by the wealthy Romans although he was probably brought to Italy from Greece where he had been a product of the rococo tendencies of the late Hellenistic age.
By this time fauns, once portrayed with the legs and hooves of a goat, had assumed a human body with only a short tail and abbreviated horns to identify them with the mythological creatures.

 Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun
Stéphane Mallarmé's poem L'Après-midi d'un faune ("The Afternoon of a Faun”), written in 1876, inspired Debussy, at about the time he turned 30, to conceive an orchestral work in three parts, to be designated respectively Prélude, Interlude and Paraphrase finale.
A performance of such a triptych was announced for Brussels in March 1894, but it did not take place, for Debussy never got beyond the most rudimentary sketches for the second and third sections.
The Afternoon of a Faun (all the title the piece really needs) was in fact Debussy's first significant work for orchestra, undertaken at more or less the same time as his first important ones for the stage (the opera Pelléas et Mélisande) and in the realm of chamber music (the String Quartet in G minor).
