F*** YES! This is a very accurate depiction of what a fae would make a deal for based off of stories made from different cultures. They may not always be the same similarities, but them being tricky like this is deep rooted in all of them.

And their twisted means makes the victim think it's their decision to sacrifice more and more, until nothing remains.

That is what make the Fae so interesting in concept. I'd hate to meet one, but they sure are great characters. They dont do it to be malicious; Malicious isn't in their vocabulary. All they want is to have fun; it's just their type of fun is less than... pleasant.

As Pratchett puts it - they would smash the world if they thought it would make an interesting noise as it breaks.
(Okay, that was talking about Elves, not Fae, but Pratchett's Elves are very much like the Fae you describe)
