The Chateau Sans Pitie is a legendary castle in
Halfling lore. In their legends, it belonged to an evil knight from the
Feywild who would lure women to him by virtue of his great wealth, power, and beauty. He would woo them, court them, and then murder them on their wedding day. Eventually, a clever Halfling lass was his victim, and she tricked him and all his guests into drinking a toast to her honor that she had poisoned. Although she herself had to drink the toast and die, her will left all the riches of the castle to her heirs, who became famously wealthy.
Whether the Chateau Sans Pitie actually exists or not is a matter for some conjecture, but a mysterious castle does lie in the Feywild and many ghosts do haunt it, dressed in wedding attire.
