One of the most eagerly anticipated new features in The Wild Beyond The Witchlight are the new options for character creation. “It sort of blends it all together, but gives the DM license to kind of lean one way or the other, to sort of give it the atmosphere that they know their players will respond to most.” “It’s not all whimsy, but it’s not all dark, Brothers Grimm,” Perkins said. Their temperament and demeanor will help to give color and nuance to player-generated campaigns, and provide freedom and flexibility for Dungeon Masters.
The Feywild is ruled by powerful creatures known as the Arch Fey, entities that have used the elasticity of the realm to carve out their own personal domains. But if you’re feeling happy and joyous, and you’re dancing around in the glade, you might find that the flowers in the glade seem to sway or dance with you that you can exert as a creature of the Feywild some influence over your environment.”
If you’re feeling sad and you sit next to a rock in the Feywild, an expression of sadness might actually form in the rock or the clouds overhead might start to take the shape of a sad face. “The plane itself has almost a transformative quality,” Perkins said. In any case, your DM could certainly decide that being able to fit through tiny spaces means you can use that same ability to slip out of ropes or manacles, but it would have to be their choice to allow that.Illustration: Nikki Dawes/Wizards of the Coast via Polygon I assume this ability represents switching between a smaller pixie-sized form and a larger form that's more suitable to dealing with the human world, something like the fairies in Disney's Sleeping Beauty, but since the Fairy doesn't have any sort of innate reduce magic, that seems questionable. It doesn't actually say the fairy has innate size-changing magic, but I'm pretty sure they didn't intend that Fairy characters can bonelessly squish through small openings like a slime or fire elemental. It's unclear from the UA article what Fey Passage is actually supposed to represent in-world.
However, it is reasonable that handcuffs sized for a small creature are bigger than an inch across, and if you can fit your whole body through a one-inch space, clearly your hand should be able to do the same. Squeezing is generally about moving through spaces that are too small to effectively fight in, not dealing with being tied up or handcuffed. Fey Passage does not inherently allow you to escape from restraints if it did, it would say that.
