There are many things that could be said of Aífe Ealabhàn, Queen of the Seelie Court, and not all of them are especially good: Flirtatious, dramatic, and a primadonna to the core, the Queen is often perceived as vain and unserious, concerned only with matters of beauty, decadence, and maintaining the status quo.

To tell you the truth, however... despite her silly and sometimes vapid disposition, the Queen has a tenuous relationship with many in her court—particularly the loyalists of the old regimen, whose own figurehead still roams the palace halls. They all love Aífe's flair for fashion and find her bombastic antics an entertaining spectacle, but her reign and rise to power has been cloaked in mystery, murder, and so-called divine intervention from the very start. Given this, one must begin to wonder... is she truly as she presents herself to be, or is it a facade to mask something more sinister?

Perhaps the truth is somewhere in the middle. Then again, considering the state of the Unseelie Court... maybe there's another reason Kings are dropping like flies.

Flannán mac Lugh, the newly crowned King of the Unseelie Court, is said to be the spitting image of his father, Lugaid—a traitorous, heretical madman to the Seelie, but a rebel hero and god among men to his people. No matter where your loyalties lie, though, there is a sense of apprehension in respect to Flannán's sudden ascension to the throne. After all, though Lugaid was venerated for his uprising against the hegemonic tyranny of the noble houses, the people of Tír na nÓg are weary of war. Alas, with the crowning of a younger King—known to be brash and temperamental, and tasked with upholding the legacy of his legendary father—some fear that the tentative peace between the Courts grows more fragile by the day.

With that said, Flannán is himself an elusive figure, with more than a few mysteries to his past. For one thing, following the war, it is said that he spent a great deal of time away from the Unseelie's new capital... but some suggest that it was not by his choice. Yet, if it is true that the young prince was once an exile, one must wonder why.

Little is known of Keagan's past—almost certainly by his own design—but what is known is that he distinguished himself during the War of the Courts as someone with a knack for intrigue and espionage. Due to this talent, he quickly scaled the ranks of the Seelie Court until he reached his current position: Máistirúin, or Master of Secrets. With his keen senses and control of the will-o-wisps, little happens in Tír na nÓg without his knowledge. If you ever need to find him, you should probably check next to the Queen of the Seelie Court, Aífe, as they are close confidants.

Keagan's position at court likewise means he is at the centre of numerous rumours. Some whisper that he may have been involved in Aífe's crowning, while others allude to a past connection with a Seelie noble that didn't end well. Regardless, there is more beneath the surface of this mysterious man than first meets the eye. Do you dare dive deeper?

Keagan Máistirúin

Maeve came from humble beginnings, having grown up an urchin in the midst of a brutal war, but she would come to make a name for herself in the province of Murias for not only her fighting prowess, but how she chose to use it: Not for glory, nor personal gain, but for the little people left behind in the chaos of war. Whether she is retrieving stolen goods from bandits or helping the King of the Unseelie keep the promises his court made to the people, Maeve is well known among the peasantry as a protector of those who cannot protect themselves; beloved for her kindness, fortitude, and willingness to jump into the fray.

However... there is a murkier side to her reputation as well. It is no secret that Maeve played a huge part in turning the side of the final confrontation between the Seelie and the Unseelie, and the results were... bloody. Some claim that in the fight's final hours, Maeve sprouted wings and descended upon the field with such fury that none who stood in her path stood for long. Perhaps this is why some call her the Morrigan.

Robin Goodfellow (neither good nor a fellow) is an ever constant, if perplexing presence in the Unseelie Court. Though the Unseelie are well known for the unusual curiosities among their ranks, Robin stands unique for the fact they are a relative newcomer, having played no part in the War of the Courts. Rather, they instead imposed themselves upon the lot, and no one has yet managed to get rid of them. Still, it would be untrue to state that the shapeshifting fool is wholly unwelcome. In fact, it is often said that the only reason the fearsome King Lugaid never skinned the fur from Robin's back is because they were the only one to ever make the rebel King laugh, while daring to insult him to his face, no less.

Still, despite their joviality and devil-may-care attitude, Robin is capable of far more than most are willing to acknowledge. Shapeshifting, teleportation, and a silver tongue... These are not common gifts among the Tuatha Dé, nor even the Druids. To Goodfellow, though, they are as effortless as breathing... which does make one wonder. Who, or what exactly, is Robin Goodfellow?

Shae was the child of loyalist servants who attended to the royal family of Tír na nÓg, and were expected to follow the same path when they came of age. Yet, life has a funny way of turning duty on its head. During the War of the Courts, Shae's family served at the Crown Princess' stronghold, and were present during the fateful attack that led to the princess vanishing without a trace. Shae was the last person to see her, and indeed even helped her escape the stronghold during the fray, but sadly the two unlikely friends were separated. While the Seelie Court believed the princess to be dead, Shae decided to enlist as a soldier in hopes of finding her behind enemy lines.

These days, Shae now lives a quiet life of isolation as a guard, but secretly they have never ceased in their search for the Lost Seelie Princess, even in the face of ridicule... and perhaps even their own peril. After all, many in the Seelie Court have gotten used to the new, post-war administration, and don't take kindly to Shae's propensity for stirring up long dead trouble.

Will you escape and return home with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind? <h2 class="bb_tag" >MEET THE CAST</h2>While trapped in this strange and storied land, you meet six members of the Tuatha Dé Danann (&quot;Tribe of the Goddess Danu&quot;), split evenly between the rivalling Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Who will you trust, befriend — romance? In either case, you'd best be careful. Fairies are a capricious sort, and liable to pull you into their own agendas...<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2070170/extras/ae1718acc3f353a0f1e9fd0cffc24017.avif?t=1778443979" alt="This is the profile for Shae Féarglas, the Honourable Soldier, voiced by Lev Rodriguez Shivers. Their description reads: &quot;Shae is a guard for the Seelie capital of Temair, but strangely, they remain stationed far beyond its walls — deep into the woods, living alone at an outpost that hasn’t been properly manned since the War of the Courts ended. In truth, they are in exile: Shunned by the ruling class for continuing to insist that the true heir of Tír na nÓg, King Anraí’s long lost daughter, is still alive and trapped behind enemy lines. They would know; they saved her when the Unseelie stormed her fortress. Nevertheless, in spite of ridicule and risk of punishment, Shae upholds their duties: To patrol and monitor Loch Bél Dragain, a waypoint between the old world and the new, for any surprise visitors...&quot; The personal quote from Shae reads: &quot;You know if you just tell me what you&#039;ve been trying to do, I&#039;d help you.

His description reads: &quot;Keagan is the spymaster for the Seelie Court, otherwise known as the Master of Secrets — a title he earned, and in effect created, due to his exemplary work in the latter years of the War of the Courts. Some might even go as far as to say the upstart was instrumental in preventing the Unseelie’s conquest from coming to fruition... But, as with many of the favourable claims whispered about the Máistirúin, it is difficult to say for certain how organic they are. After all, his spies are everywhere — small, fast, industrious will-o&#039;-the-wisps that answer only to him, and allow Keagan’s prying eyes to reach far and wide. Perhaps even into the Unseelie Court as well...&quot; The personal quote from Keagan reads: &quot;Now come, let your dear friend Keagan take you back where you belong.&quot;" width=1200 height=675 />KEAGAN MÁISTIRÚIN: The Seelie Court spymaster with a plethora of enemies.

Her description reads: &quot;Queen Aífe, first of her name, is the current monarch of the Seelie Court, but there are those who’d rejoice to see her deposed. To the poor downtrodden, Aífe is perceived as vain and melodramatic, too decadent and altogether undeserving of the power she wields. Yet, paradoxically, she finds little favour among her kind at court as well: Her social and economic ideas are too novel, too unorthodox, and flagrantly oppose the millennia of precedent set by druidic law. Then there is the matter of her curious ascension to the throne; a secret affair marred by rumors of regicide, dark magic, and even a touch of divine intervention... If you believe such things, of course. In either case, it leaves one wondering much about the elusive character of Aífe Ealabhàn.&quot; The personal quote from Aífe reads: &quot;Sometimes longing for that which never was can be just as painful as longing for something lost.&quot;" width=1200 height=675 />AÍFE EALABHÀN: Queen of the Seelie, a rumoured usurper falsely ordained by the gods.

Her description reads: &quot;Maeve is a hero to the people of Murias, and a symbol of hope in uncertain times. Having gained fame as a lone warrior prior to joining the Unseelie war effort, Maeve is beloved for her desire to defend the defenceless no matter their beliefs. To that end, her esteem was initially a vexation of the Unseelie’s: As the rebel cause struggled to gain ground against the loyalists, Maeve saw it as her duty to protect the folk caught in the fray, even if it meant standing against firebrands like Flannán. None know for sure what ultimately caused Maeve’s change of heart, but the impact of her choice is clear: Not only in the Unseelie’s final battle, where she alone turned the tide, but in the minds of the people now willing to reconsider the Unseelie’s prospects for the future.&quot; The personal quote from Maeve reads: &quot;It&#039;s not a lot, but it helps to know we&#039;re in this together.&quot;" width=1200 height=675 />MAEVE TROIDUAIR: An Unseelie folk hero endowed with incredible power.

Yet, despite the many similarities between father and son, there are those who remain wary of revolutionary’s heir: Some proclaim him to be a fanatic, too eager to take up his father’s mantle and return Tír na nÓg to war. Others will claim the opposite: That Lugaid saw weakness in his son, and thus had him banished in all but name for decades. No matter what one thinks, however, this much is clear: The road ahead for Flannán is precarious, and neither he nor his kingdom can afford any missteps.&quot; The personal quote from Flannán reads: &quot;This story is bigger than you and your desires.

Their description reads: &quot;Robin Goodfellow, above all else, is a menace to anyone who crosses their caprine path, but that doesn’t mean the trickster never plays favourites. This is, in essence, the working theory for why he’s taken up residence in (or rather under) Caisleán na nDaoine: The grave and self-serious Unseelie make for wonderful targets of all manner of mischief and japery, and King Flannán — for all his grumbling — can at least make use of her political ambivalence and many cunning tricks: Shapeshifting, leyline-hopping, and a silver tongue like no other... Really, if not for Robin’s seeming lack of interest in doing anything of true importance, one might even consider them dangerous. But what’s wrong with a little bit of danger anyway, if it means having all that much more fun?&quot; The personal quote from Robin reads: &quot;But don’t worry!
