The Gentry
Choose your side

Seelie

or

Unseelie

Welcome to the world of Fairy

Choose your side, quickly
Before the ghouls will have your head
Or the misty little piskies steal your bed
Or if the Nucklelavee's will take your blood
Or when the Leprechauns will steel your gold

There are two courts in the land of Fairyland. One is the Seelie; Honorable, loving, fight for your dignity, court. Or the Unseelie; malicious and evil, rude and cunning, court.
This is the start of a war between both courts, and both courts are doing drastic things:

Bringing the witches and wizards that have Fae blood in them into the war.

The Tuatha De Dannan was a race of faerie dieties and they lived in Ireland where Lord Dagda ruled. The druids played a part in their history, and so did witches. Now the fairies are needing more help from them. They issued spies in the Ministry of Magic to help find the descendants from the old race and they need more people to join this gentry.

Choose your side.
Wisely.

Seelie

Quote:

The Seelie have a reputation as the guardians of fae traditions. They see themselves as peacekeepers, proponents of courtly love, protectors of the weak and embodiments of the ideals of chivalry. They tend to be traditional and often conservative in their outlook, preferring the tried and true over the risky and innovative.

Most Seelie seek the reunion between the mortal world and the Dreaming, and would like nothing better than a return to the time before the two realms split apart. To this end, many members of the Seelie Court consider the gathering and preservation of Glamour to be their sacred duty, a process of reawakening in mortals the ability to dream. Though they may consider the Unseelie Court their greatest rival, Banality is their greatest enemy.

The Seelie code

Quote:

The Seelie Code

· Death before dishonor.

Chivalry still lives. Honor is the most important virtue, the source of all glory. Personal honor must always be kept stainless. Sometimes death is the only path which can erase a mark of dishonor.

· Love conquers all.

Love lies at the heart of the Dreaming. True love transcends all and epitomizes what it means to be Seelie. Courtly love best expresses love in its highest form, although familial love and love of companions also serve as pure embodiments of that exalted virtue. Anything is permitted in the name of true love.

· Beauty is life.

Beauty is a timeless, objective quality that, while it cannot be defined, is always recognized for itself. Beauty is the muse of creation, the ultimate flowering of the Dreaming. Once found, it must be protected, for it is both eternal and fragile. To die in the service of beauty is an honor and a privilege.

· Never forget a debt.

One gift deserves another. The recipient of a gift is obligated to return the favor. Likewise, a curse should be returned in kind. An oath of friendship should be answered with a corresponding oath. Never refuse to aid anyone to whom you are indebted. Never forget a kindness... or a cruelty.

Unseelie

Quote:

Where the Seelie dedicate themselves to preserving the traditions of the fae, the Unseelie style themselves as mockers of those traditions. They stand for the principles of constant change and impulsive action. They have a reputation for fostering war and madness, despising those weaker than themselves, and valuing freedom and wildness over any chivalric code. The Unseelie see themselves as radical visionaries, bringing about vital change and transformation through whatever means necessary, including violence.

Most members of the Unseelie Court believe that the Dreaming has abandoned them, and, therefore, that they owe no special loyalty to it or to their lost home of Arcadia. Unseelie fae use Glamour for their own ends, to gain strength and personal power and to further their political ambitions. The Unseelie feel that they should be the masters, rather than the servants, of the Dreaming.

Unseelie Code

Quote:

The Unseelie Code

· Change is good.

Security does not exist. The slightest of circumstances can transform a king into a peasant. Nothing is certain in a world where change is the only constant. Embrace change or else fall before its onslaught. Chaos and discord rule the universe. Adapt or die.

· Glamour is free.

Glamour is worthless unless used. Hoarding Glamour makes no sense, since it is an eternally replenishable resource. So long as humans exist, there will always be dreamers - hence, there will always be more Glamour. Acquire it by any means possible, and you will never be without a constant supply.

· Honor is a lie.

Honor has no place in the modern world. It is a fairy tale constructed to cover the essential emptiness behind most traditions. Only through enlightened self-interest can any truth be attained.

· Passion before duty.

Passion is the truest state of the fae spirit. Follow your instincts and act on your impulses. Live life to the fullest without regard to the consequences - they will come about regardless of what you do. Youth passes quickly, so have fun while you can. Death can come at any time, so live without regret.
