The Gentry
Choose your side







Seelie


or



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.

Rules: are pretty basic.
1. no god modding
2. no chatspeak
3. no characters that can kill you with a glance. XD
4. i'm playing the Unseelie King, soooo, no touchy.
5. just have fun, y'all. and get into the fun and dark woulrd of faeries. >D

Can I be Queenie Seelie? And a Seelie faerie? And a wizard?

*works on bios*


Name: Queen Psyche Marin
Age: 18
Kind: Seelie Royal Wind Faerie
Appearance:

Personality and Background: Psyche [Sy-kee] is the young Queen of Seelie. At age 16, when her mother passed away, she became the youngest queen of her time, and still rules to this day. As much as she misses her childhood, she had practically been brainwashed into thinking that sacrifices must be made all for the welfare of her people. Although she is an effective ruler, she's still young and sometimes tends to be gullible, especially involving handsome, young courtiers and her sheer interest in humans. She's still looking for a suitable husband and king, too.
She's a kind and patient queen. She likes to meditate and stay in quiet, peaceful spots to think of good advice to give people, but she also knows when to have fun with her friends (rarely >.>). She also refuses to fight with the Unseelie, thinking that fighting is a complete waste of time, effort, power and blood.

Name: Malificent Kamoritovia
Age: 19
Kind: Enchantress of the Unseelie Court
Appearance:

Personality and Background: Malificent is one of the many enchantresses in the Unseelie Court. At first glance, she may look Seelie, but don't let outer appearances fool you. She has the features of an angel, but she's far from it. It's more like -- evil to the core. She's ever loyal to the King and trusts no one but him, not even her own family.
She's cunning and witty, and can easily tempt those weak of heart, especially the humans which she considers mere pasttimes to entertain herself. She knows how to use her powers, that they come with a price, but she doesn't mind in the least. She's as cold and dark as the havoc she creates, but she can still smile (or rather smirk) about it proudly.

Name: Calidore Taluvere
Age: 20
Kind: Wizard. From Britain. :]
Appearance:

Personality and Background: [ Write this up soon xD ]

He is a knight in the army of faeries for the Unseelie court, and he has been king for over 3 years in faerie time (Meaning like, 10 years in human time) He is cold and only talks to whoever walks up to the dias and wants to talk business about the gentry and his advisors. He sometimes likes to accept sacrifices of animals or of other faeries. He likes to feast all day and all night and he is actually looking for a Queen. He finds himself looking for devious and fun and evil kinds of girls.

Background info: He was born a changeling and his mother gave him up in search of living in the Seelie court. He grew up wandering the land of Faerie and soon found himself in the court of the Unseelie. He lived there for many years until he found himself fit enough to be in the army for the court. He is one of the descendants of Lord Dagda and his son, Midir. He was crowned King at age 17 and has been leading the court since.

Extra: He has an assistant named Lutie. She is his only friend around the fiends of the court. She helps him with everything.

At the age of eleven she received her acceptance letter to Hogwarts; which shock her parents since they thought she had no magic ability. After much thought, they reluctantly allowed her to attend Hogwarts. At age fourteen, she was given heartbreaking news that her heart was in the first stage of congestive heart failure. Upon hearing the news, her parents came to a decision that they need to leave the stressful and chaotic life of London. Three months later, the Grey family moved to the peaceful little town of Bedford, England. During the first mouths after moving, Parker refused to speak to anyone and because of that she came to somewhat of an understanding. She came to understand that just because her heart was being to fail didn't mean the end of everything, it was a reason to really live. After successfully graduating Hogwarts, she had planned on getting a job at the Daily Prophet. But when her father was killed under mysterious circumstances, she was offered his former job which she gladly accepted.

You're all in! Hope to get this up and running soon guys! :]

Fatey! This is tooo good a story to resist.


I am working on my bio, but I'll be joining as a Seelie Faerie. Pwease!



Your name: Mysti Featherdust
Age: 17
What kind of faerie you are: Moon Faerie
Which court: Seelie

Appearance:


Personality and History: Both of Mysti's parents had died when she was about ten years old and they had left her more than enough to live on for the rest of her life. Her uncle and aunt looked after her and she grew very fond of them and they loved her like their daughter, but when Mysti was fifteen, both her uncle and aunt had dissappeared. She searched everywhere, but she couldn't find them. About a month later, she discovered that they had been killed. Mysti was devastated. Now she had no family and she was very much alone in the world. This is why she never opens up to anyone. She doesn't want to get close to anyone because she fears she would loose them too.

When you look at her, you will realise that Mysti is delicate. Everything from her touch to her heart is delicate. She is someone who feels when others get hurt and never thinks ill of anybody. She has a very soft voice and she hardly ever raises it. She isn't shy, but doesn't talk much and rarely discusses her her feelings with anybody, yet her personality is pretty obvious. Whenever she is unhappy or upset she hides it from everyone, not because she thinks displaying such emotions is a disgrace, but because she doesn't want to worry others. She is innocent and has a soft spot for cute looking boys, whether they be faeries or humans, but these crushes are always a well kept secret.

May I join as two unseelie fairies?

Lia

SOOOOO SORRY.

I've been so busy these past few days. Meh to school.

Starting it up soon. Like tonight or tomorrow.

I'm so sorry! School takes over lives... 0_o Here's my bio (finally)..

[:Zaneeta Louise Osgood:]

name: Zaneeta Louise Osgood
nicknames: Most people just call her Zaneeta, but her best friends call her Lo.
which court: unseelie
kind of fairy: fire faerie
age: 16
date of birth: May 13

history: Zaneeta actually spent the first part of her life with her parents in the Seelie Kingdom. She hated every minuet of it. It became obvious how different Zaneeta was from the rest of her family and the Seelie Kingdom and they tried for a long time to change that. But once Zaneeta found out that her uncle lived in the Unseelie Kingdom she ran off to live with him when she was only about ten years old.

personality: Zaneeta is incredibly manipulative. She will do just about anything to get what she wants, even if it does hurt someone. Though, for her that's just a perk/plus in getting what she wants. A way of entertainment... Zaneeta has this very sweet and innocent look to her along with a cute girlish giggle and her soft, gentle voice. People who don't know her would think she's a little angel. Not the smartest one, but an angel none the less. Well that would make them horribly wrong. But Zaneeta wouldn't want them to think any differently. She uses their little-known knowledge of her to her advantage. She isn't the most patient being, but she is fairly good at keeping her temper down. Overall, Zaneeta just likes to have fun. For her that could range from hurting someone to going to a loud party.

eyes: She has dark brown, almost black eyes, but up close there seems to be a light gray color over that.
hair: Zaneeta has white blonde, curly hair that reaches a little bit below her shoulders. Usually she wears it up in a ponytail with her side-swept bangs hanging in her eyes. Whatever she does with it, it is always well done.
height: She is very short... Somewhere in between 4'11" and 5'.
build: She is very thin and has small bones giving her a fragile appearance
complexion: pale

appearance:

I hope that's alright...

Lutie was mad. Where was Finvarra? He wasn't on his throne, nowhere on the dias, not even in upstairs in the mortal cemetery they are under. She flew past a few trolls who were being barbaric. As usual. She noticed a few piskies, like herself, over eating some grapes, the last Nucklelavee, seeing as they were all killed in the last war, over and taking delight in the music. And where oh where was the king?

She rolled her eyes and flew up in the air and went over to the dias and escaped in the hallway door next to the throne. She sighed and flitted around the halls in search of her friend, love, and lord. Where was he?
