Goddess that the Drow and other Dark Fae worship.

 

Lower Castes - The lower Castes are the Non-nobles of Fae kind. They are usually the servants of nobles or royals, and their lives are more difficult than the Seelie and Unseelie. The Lower Castes are a wide range of different kinds of Fae.

Mage - A Mage is a Male human who is born with magical abilities. Although most Mages class themselves as Supernaturals, due to their difficult past with other humans. Most Mages belong to a Coven, but not all.

 

Necromancer - A Necromancer is someone who has magic that involves communication with the dead – either by summoning their spirits as apparitions, visions or raising them bodily – for the purpose of divination, imparting the means to foretell future events, discover hidden knowledge, to bring someone back from the dead, or to use the dead as a weapon. Sometimes this can be referred to as black magic.

 

Seelie - Ruled by the Summer Court, and, to a lesser extent, the Spring Court, the Fae of the Seelie Court are those who are of a generally amicable predisposition. Despite this, they are prone to mischief and are known to overreact (by non-faerie standards) to situations. The Court is primarily populated by the Lower Castes of Eladrin, Elves, Gnomes, and Hobgoblins.

 

Seer - A human who can see into the future. Usually they keep themselves to themselves. They can get premonitions from many things, and about many people, even ones they don’t know.

Shadow Courts - There are things in Faerie that not even the Fae of the Unseelie courts deign to dabble in. The realm is home to both dreams and nightmares and none more personify the latter than the Shadow Courts. Nebulous and not well understood, existing on the fringes of Faerie are creatures of darkness and gloom. It is said that Lolth reigns over these enigmatic lands and creatures. Rumors claim that some of the other Fae gods may have some influence in this aspect of Faerie, too, however. Although the shadow realm exists within the context of Faerie, most things that come from it are not considered to be Fae in nature.

Shapeshifter - Shapeshifters are supernatural beings who can transform into an animal. The animal they can shift into depends on if they were changed or born. Most born shapeshifters take on the same animal as their parents. Changed shapeshifters shift into the same animal as those that infected them, they also have a harder time when it comes to their bodies getting used to shifting.

 

Skinwalker - A type of Shapeshifter who can shift into any form of their choosing. They find it easier to shift into more humanoid figures, like other people that they have met, although they can still shift into their chosen animal. Unlike the average shapeshifter, their shifts do not become less painful as time goes on.

 

Spring Court - The Spring Court is seen as the much "calmer" ones to the benevolence of the Fae compared to Summer. The Fae of this court are generally polite and bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. These Fae are more apt to lure humans in with sweet dew. They also have blossoming curiosity. The Spring Court is strongest during the ends of winter and throughout the spring season, despite the Summer Court having reigned. These Fae are peppy, quiet, seductive, emotional, and vernal obviously. The epitome of spring.

 

Summer Court - The Summer Court represents what people see as the benevolent side of the Fae. The Fae of this court are generally considered more polite or mannered, albeit they are still very capable of cruelty (but will be more hush-hush, or subtle about it). The Summer Court has free reign over summer solstice and spring equinox months, and are strongest during that time. Needless to say, the Fae of this court are frivolous, venereal, hot-headed and what have you. They are the epitome of summer.

Unseelie - The Fae of the Unseelie Court tend towards malevolence, and are guided by the lords of the Winter and Autumn Courts. The Unseelie Fae are often merciless and are likely to be aggressive without provocation. Most people in Faerie know to avoid involvement with the Unseelie, though doing so can prove difficult when such Fae are extremely skilled at misleading those they interact with. Eladrin, Changelings, Drow, and Spriggans are the most populous Fae among the Lower Castes.

 

Winter Court - The Winter Court represents what people see as the malevolent side of the Fae. The Fae of this court frown upon humans. They're more inclined to talk about their open cruelty. This makes them look none other than evil, however one chooses to define evil. The Winter Court has free reign over winter solstice and autumn equinox months, and are strongest during that time. By and by, the Fae of this court are sensible, chilled, dark, baleful, and what have you. They are the epitome of winter. They are Unseelie.

 

Witch - A Witch is a Female human who is born with magical abilities. Although most Witches class themselves as Supernaturals, due to their difficult past with other humans. Most Witches belong to a Coven, but not all.

Chapter One

 

Melissa

"You realize that it’s really fucking rude to ignore one of the few people that acknowledges your existence, right? Come on Mel, you know that nobody else can talk to me. I’m so bloody lonely and I’m only asking for you to talk to me. What's so bad about that? It’s just plain cruel to snub me when you know I don’t have anyone else."

I try my best to ignore the strange man waving his hands in front of my face, trying to catch my attention, but it gets harder and harder to do so as the days draw on. Don’t get me wrong, I'm not an uncivil person, but when the
