@ UmbraLux: Any thought as to what "court" these would be?Why would they be tied to just one?
@ UmbraLux: Any thought as to what "court" these would be? Wyld fae?
Don't think you'll ever have a master list - there are too many legends to pull inspiration from. That's a good thing! :)
From what was said in one of the novels, not sure who said it, it seems like a Fae's court is usually determined by their personality. It seems that destructive fae lean towards Winter while nurturing do Summer. If they fall in a grey area, then I'd say Wyld.Yes, I see court affiliations as essentially political or personal with a feudal outlook. Differing races and species of fae will often serve in multiple courts. A personal relationship, as subject to feudal lord, is more important than the overall political picture. If a fae lord switches alliances, so do his underlings and sworn subjects. That said, fae don't change easily...and neither do their affiliations.
