Fae Coutris: Hidden Intentions, Iraticate Dances (IC) (Still Accepting)

[Zahrale]

@Dead Cruiser Again remember. these aren't English lords and ladies. they have their own hierarchy rules and expectations.

[Kaalee]

Name: Meliae
Race (Human or Type of Fae): Wood Nymph
Position (In court if you are a fae, Any fae outside of a court will be under extreme pressure): She's the Lady of Taiga of the Summer Court.
Age: Unknown
Personality (Fae type has effect): Some say she should be of the fall or winter court, for there are rumors of her ruthlessness. While she does have her moments, especially when unsuspecting humans find their way into the deepest parts of her woods, she reserves her true wrath on the ones who thinks they can take her forest from her. Otherwise she is serene, and even tempered. She enjoys life, and all that it brings.
Appearance: If she ever puts on a glamour(which she so rarely does), her skin and hair and eyes are the color of her bark. To match current time, she'll usually wear a green sleeveless blouse, a dark fur coat, dark jeans, and black boots. Otherwise, she's either an Ash tree, or in her Fae form, she's green with ivy climbing her body.
Background: Not much is known about Meliae, except that she's inhabited and ruled the Taiga forests for as long as most can remember. Even after she gave up North America, she still rules over the largest forest in the world. She doesn't come to court except when it's required of her, and holds her own court within the deepest parts of the Taiga forests.

Woops! I forgot! I mentioned the "Greater Courts" before, and ignored the "Lesser Courts". The greater courts are the Seelie/Unseelie and Season courts. They are first and foremost among the fae, but every king baron/knight/lord has a smaller ring of fae called a Lesser Court- with the highest ranking member in charge of keeps those specific fae in line, as part of their House/Dominion. much like English lords and Vassals or Serfs.

In example, a Kings lesser court would comprise of all the nobles elders and chosen warriors, Were as a Barons lesser court would have all of his kin, and those loyal to his family due to debt promises or domination.

@Zahrale

So like a king/queen of a lesser court is like king/queen of a specific fae race? I.E. King of the goblins, queen of the leprechauns...?

[Zahrale]

@Kaalee EEEEEH.... Imma do some lore hopping but I think theres a few holes in that char design- but I like the connection between ruthlessness and Summer. We didn't mention it, but summer can be just as wrathful, perhaps even Worse than winter, when it comes to defending themselves their belongings, or if they just decide your Ugly and don't deserve to exist... Yeah that's a thing.

@Emma Not quite the same subject- But THAT is an excellent point to bring up, The strongest of any one particular race is called first and foremost as "The Elder (fill in the blank)",except in court which then they are called (you guessed it) Barons/Knights/Lords, as they earned the title simply by Living. Most of the Elder Fae form their OWN court called "The Court of Elders" They dictate Fae Law, and Ignore the rules of the season and seelie courts- and in most parts are forbidden from helping the other courts.

In short: The Court of Elders are the ones that hunt you down, slaughter you mercilessly enslave and forcibly adopt your children, and or eat them if you so much as even THINK about breaking a promise, Theft, murder, or revealing Fae existence to Humans En masse; Along with pretty much whatever else they find offensive or unacceptable. And the kicker? even the Kings and Queens have to listen to them, as the Court of Elders are The most Powerful- Usually being (By Far) the oldest.

@Zahrale Like what kind of holes?

@Zahrale Like what kind of holes?

@Kaalee

Eh, I thought I saw one or two, but I don't think its a major concern, ill PM you if I find anything credible and useful

[Kaalee]

@Zahrale Okay! I feel like there are issues but I can't tell what because I'm not looking at it from an objective viewpoint so I can't see it. Annoys me every time lol. Just PM me if you have any questions or concerns

By the way everyone, Feel free to correct me, if you can find a more reliable source of information.

I have an amazing idea for my character, possibly and elder. I am basing her off a specific person/goddess though. Marzanna. What would I classify her race as? Deity, demon, Psychopomps, Nightmare, Spectre, Death, Reaper, Baku, Alp, Banshee, Succubus...? idk

[Kaalee]

A Mare would be the best fit

Yes i would say Daemons Exist, but i would argue against them being 'Fae' Daemons are more of a 'divine' being, and thus aren't the same thing.

@Emma

The closest two there would be Witch (due to the relation to Baba Yaga) and Banshees. Though Banshees are locked to winter due to being a form of spirit, and Unintentionally being evil. (The show "Lost Girl" would argue that Succubi are Fae, but the idea of a Succubus is a DEMON that feeds on Sexual Energy and Lust, Demons, are not fae, due to being a Divine being. but then Greek mythology could argue that Nymphs, being the daughters of gods and most fae-like beings being the offspring of gods and nymphs or some odd formation there-of that fae are in their own right divine as well, And the Arthurian tales hint at this as well, so ill leave this one to Runic. In short, Runic, Demons angels and other divinity 'kerfluffle' = Fae?)
