King's Quest Omnipedia

The Fey brothers are the two brothers who own and run the Fey Tailorshop in Serenia.

They include the Tailor of the town, and his Employee. Their first names are not given.

Background[]

The Fey brothers are the shop's owners, they put the golden needle on display each year in conjunction with their annual clearance sale. It is mounted on a plaque telling the saga of how the needle was stolen and then returned by a king. Beneath the plaque is another prominent sign stating; KING GRAHAM OF DAVENTRY STEPPED HERE! This is apparently considered effective marketing in Serenia.

Fey brothers[]

Behind the scenes[]

The name Fey may be based off of Tammy Faye Bakker the wife of 1980's televangelist. Both Jym Baker and Tam Baker’s names were also inspired by the duo as well.

Istvan Fey was a programmer on KQ5NES.

An alternative interpretation could be that there are two brothers who are tailors but only one is seen in KQ5. The employee could be unrelated as employees rarely own where they work. However, it’s more likely that Peter Spear saw two people working there and was inspired to make them brothers.
