[@Prince of Seraphs] Ah, you have an excellent idea there.  Yeah, the person originally used is a species I came up with that is similar to fey in that debts must be paid, but they place a great deal of value on not owing anyone anything -- so saving a life is generally something that must be repaid with a serious promise.  Then again, doing unasked favors is rude in their society, so.  ^.^;;

Yes, I think having her summoned with an accidental blood right works better, and she's angry at being summoned, and angry at being put in a dangerous situation even if she doesn't get hurt.  ^.^

A few further thoughts.  I'm reading through some of the old thread, and it's sounding like season-born fey can be human, originally?  For example, what I've seen of Feoras -- human parents, but he's full fey and even the ruler of Summer.  I'd understand if one parent was fey, that the child might also be fey, but it's possible for a full human to turn fey as well?  You touched on this in your post (I wrote most of the stuff below the line before I saw it), but Feoras very definitely has at least one human parent, possibly two, and the way season-born fey is listed, it sounds like half-fey or adopted humans (though it might just be adopted wild fey) fit that category.  Ugh, it'd be a shame if I have to get rid of Max's healer powers altogether, as I doubt they have up-to-date medtech in the fae realms...Maybe a powered crystal or something, a very /weak/ artifact...but those are rare, so why would his mistress have one, and why would she give it to him?  >.<  Open to ideas, here.

I'm not completely clear on Seelie/Unseelie division, as that's usually a personality thing but if I'm understanding correctly, then if your parents are one or the other, you're supposed to stay on that side -- and in that Court.  Unless there's a coming of age where you choose for yourself or something, I'd think that would lead to a mix of attitudes on both sides, though perhaps kindness from Unseelie and deliberate nastiness from the Seelie is frowned upon and done on the sly.  As for adjacent courts -- Spring/Summer, for example, or Summer/Fall -- it's just DM rule that they don't mix and have kids?  Is there very little travel between the different courts at all?  I know visitors would be met with at least some suspicion, but are they actually all but forbidden?  That's going to make it hard to trade -- or spy, for that matter.  A distrusted visitor is a better spy in some cases than someone that has to sneak around everywhere.

Falk is Tengvan?  It's not explicitly stated anywhere, but they're both listed as Autumn King, so I'm guessing yes, and that Falk is the publicly known name.


Sorry if I'm picking at things and asking a lot of questions.  >.<  I'm trying to get a feel for the setting.
