Fae Lore

Light Fae Lore:

On par with witches on magical power, fae are some of the most influential races in this world. Where all the other races have some sort of democratic clan or pack, fae are the only ones with a monarchy passed through generations and bloodlines upon death. The king and queen (The Queen’s lineage being the royal blood) rule their kingdom in a mystical kingdom of similar feeling to the hallow.

The fae kingdom can be accessed through portals of nature, protected from humans and anyone else they may not wish to enter. Spells protect these gateways so a person's true intentions can be detected upon attempting to enter. If less than positive, entryway can be denied.

Other nobles and family have influence within the castle and how the kingdom is ruled, often again linked to bloodlines and the older family lines once again.

Faes have two forms like other races, human presenting and magical/fae presenting. Their fae form glows almost and sparkles with magic; their ears of course turn pointed, their wings are outlined and form again from magic, and their skin is dotted with swirling shapes of light that represent the markings of light power. They can fly of course and also have the slight ability to see others' auras and magic, linking to emotions, darker or lighter magic and intentions.

They are considered to be a rather old race; their kingdom a beautiful secret world with high homes and large trees, the sun shining through, and the area constantly sparkling with magic

Their enemies? Dark fae, who are their complete opposites through and through. Dark Fae Lore:

It is wholly unsure how the dark fae came to be, though legend has it that the sister of the queen ruling many many years ago was a corrupt and evil person, using dark magic to hurt others and gain power.

A plot to kill her sister began and finally the dark magic took over her completely, her heart turning tainted. She was defeated after a hard battle, and banished to the underground of the kingdom to stay. It is believed all those who sided with her, and used her dark magic, as well as her children all became so tainted their light fae self was so overcome that they became the dark fae.

Dark fae in appearance are similar to light fae; their pointed ears, aura reading, bloodlines and the like. However, their skin is much darker and grey when they change form, all cracked and tainted. Their wings glow with dark magic, crackling and snapping like lighting and their form flares with a shadowy-like magic.

They are regarded as evil; that all dark fae are tainted, corrupt and forever scheming. However, as time has passed more dark fae not originating from the older bloodlines have appeared, suggesting maybe it is just a simple mutation. Many refuse to accept that, saying anyone who may become or be a dark fae even if from a light fae bloodline, are evil and someone to avoid and banish.

The dark fae now have their own society within the underground, or more so known as The Cove, refusing to follow any of the Queen’s authority.
