divinya is admittedly a bit on edge today. their nerves are frayed and exposed, eyes wary despite their normally aptly trained neutrality. it had been quite a while since they'd faced an armory alone, in quiet reverance; longer still since they'd let off some bottled up steam. their senses have always been on high alert, but with their recent lack of sleep, it had increased tenfold. it's with that anxiety that they react on instinct when they notice someone following a bit too close down a mostly empty street. without turning, they place a hand on their hip, a stance that isn't so much threatening as it is a quiet warning. "if you intend to follow me, you'd do best to be a little more subtle."

‘ rahul kohli, cismale, he/him, 35 / 350 , illyrian ’ ― cauldron save you. it seems kieran acharya has finally made it to the capital, the second in command from the autumn court is said to be imaginative and is said to describe themselves with the smell of freshly falling leaves, chaotic baking afternoons full of messes, clashing swords and swear words echoing through the woods, healing and calming auras filling hearts close by and with all of this in mind their impulsive nature always seems to get them into trouble. may the mother hold them as they navigate this unthinkable time.
full name: kieran visha acharya nicknames: kie, kier age: 35/350 date of birth: gender: cismale pronouns: he/him sexual orientation: bisexual faceclaim: rahul kholi hair color: black eye color: dark brown height: 6'4 tattoos: illyrian tattoos (and some he'll never share) signature scent: vanilla & lavender
background:
kieran doesn't remember much before basic training. or perhaps it's that he doesn't want to remember. his whole world was based around his illyrian training. as a kid, all he could remember was picking up a sword and learning to fly. even the stress of learning how his wings worked was pushed so far back in his head that he couldn't tell you how all of it happened. but he was good at it, incredibly good at it and he knew it. kieran knew his strengths and weaknesses and made sure everyone else knew it too. despite all of this foolishness, the autumn court gave him a home. they allowed him a place to live and be himself.
he joined the autumn army, needing to find a kinship with others. kieran wanted to show his love to the court that gave him a life. but it was the best decision he'd ever made. there, he found his best friend, suho, the one that he'd do just about anything for, no matter what. rising through the ranks, kieran forced himself to train harder and harder each and every day to become as strong as he could.
but not everything was always so easy. kieran was far too impulsive for his own good and always found himself in sticky situations. but kieran was the kind that could always find a solution in any situation. and not just a generic solution, but instead, he came up with the most creative solutions he could. they were all incredibly creative, but at the same time, really bizarre.
due to him being horribly impulsive, kieran found himself constantly covered in scratches and bruises, and as a result, learned how to take care of himself. his knowledge of bandages and herbal tea remedies were always helpful to any type of healing he needed. in fact, he was incredibly proud of himself for it.
when suho became high lord, kieran, while shocked, knew that no matter what, he would support his best friend. becoming the second in command, he made sure to do the very best job he could. and her loves his life. it's everything he could want.
personality:
kieran is very impulsive, always wanting to go on an adventure, try something new, or in reality, do something really foolish. but he's very imaginative and loves to come up with new ideas for almost everything. he's very kind, loving, and sweet, but he does have rage issues and can freak out over the smallest thing. when he does, he tends to grumble and groan in gibberish and only suho knows how to get him out of it. his spontaneous nature isn't always a good thing and gets him into quite a bit of trouble.
there's more, but my brain tired.

‘ zeeko zaki, cis man, he/him, 35 / 350 , high fae ’ ― cauldron save you. it seems ersham farraj has finally made it to the capital, the scribe/scholar from night court is said to be insightful and is said to describe themselves with spilled ink, the smell of old books, actions not words, sleepless nights and with all of this in mind their withdrawn nature always seems to get them into trouble. may the mother hold them as they navigate this unthinkable time. 
STATS
full name: ersham farraj nickname(s): he hates nicknames, but feel free to try it and see what happens! age: 35/350 date of birth: january 12 (capricorn) gender: cis man (he/him) sexual orientation: heterosexual job: scribe/scholar of the night court traits: insightful, organized, ambitious, withdrawn, cynical, grumpy abilities: typical high fae powers
APPEARANCE
faceclaim: zeeko zaki hair color and style: black, short and well-kept just like his beard eye color: brown height: 6'5" tattoos: none piercings: none
BACKGROUND tw death
the oldest of three and the only son, ersham was raised by very involved diplomat/emissary parents who were lauded and loved by those most important in the night court
they had envisioned him as a strong soldier or as an emissary like themselves, but he was never that type, preferring to keep to himself and his books
he took care of his younger sisters and learned all that he could
he became a scholar of numerous subjects and an incredible writer, able to read and write many ancient languages and speak eloquently on many topics
when his middle sister, shula, was still quite young, she went on a trip with their parents because ersham refused, telling his parents that there was no way he could follow in their footsteps; on their journey, they were attacked and his sister was killed
ersham blames himself and the guilt lays heavy on him to this day though it was decades and decades ago — maybe if he had gone like his parents had wanted, none of this would have ever happened
despite his guilt, he kept on in his studies, growing up to serve the court with his gift of scholarship
PERSONALITY
a very hard worker and academic, incredibly smart and helpful with pretty much any thing
but is incredibly bad at maintaining healthy relationships, is afraid to get close to anyone  
insomniac, partially because of his tireless work and partially because of... poor mental health
not very friendly, will turn on the little charm he possesses if he absolutely has to, but he likes to keep to himself and is largely a grump
quiet, says more in what he does
man of few spoken words but MANY written words
still has a very strained relationship with his parents, loves to be the family disappointment 
close with his sister, but, of course, that bond is a bit strained just due to the blame he puts on himself for shula's death
distrustful of most things and people just in general
WANTED: friends (he is bad at friendship but he is loyal!), other academics, enemies?, the donkey to his shrek (very grumpy shrek coded), people he's protective of (probably in hidden), would really love an ex he royally messed things up with probably the only person he's ever been serious about — anything !! fr! let's goooo

‘ aron piper, cis man, he/him, 26 / 260 , high fae ’ ― cauldron save you. it seems atlas caadlawon has finally made it to the capital, the lord from dawn court is said to be independent and is said to describe themselves with loud laughter, paint-stained clothes, crooked smirks, calloused hands and with all of this in mind their chaotic nature always seems to get them into trouble. may the mother hold them as they navigate this unthinkable time.
STATS
full name: lord atlas godwin caadlawon nickname(s): atty, whatever else you want to call him he isn't picky age: 26/260 date of birth: february 2 (aquarius) gender: cis man (he/him) sexual orientation: bisexual traits: independent, creative, outgoing, chaotic, impulsive, childish abilities: healing, high fae powers
APPEARANCE
faceclaim: arón piper hair color and style: naturally brown, but he often dyes/bleaches it — currently brown and cut short eye color: hazel height: 6'0" tattoos: several along his arms, back, chest, and torso piercings: ears, probably at least one nipple
BACKGROUND
the youngest of the caadlawon clan, atlas was born too early, small and sickly (the irony for the court known for its healing), a true "runt of the litter"
despite being tiny and scrawny growing up, he kept up with the other children, never wanting to be left out or left behind
his abilities developed slowly, his healing has never been as good as his older siblings and he knows it probably never will be
when he was younger, his father put a lot of pressure on him to succeed and make the family proud, but atlas has never been very good at the diplomatic and 'official duty' things, his father eventually kind of just gave up on trying to form him into any sort of useful heir
he was left to his own devices much of the time, picking up painting as a hobby, he's a great artist and expresses himself best through art
he doesn't have much direction and feels a little bit lost, but he is Trying (sometimes)
PERSONALITY
he's not necessarily a troublemaker, but wherever he goes chaos kind of follows in his wake
annoying little brother energy for sure
he's very outgoing and disorganized and all over the place
not much of a filter, talks way more than he probably should
loves to have a good time and uses his privileges as a lord to do so
he ADORES his siblings, truly, and feels bad that it seems he has so much less responsibility than the rest of them and really DOES want to make them proud; he tries to spend time with them as much as possible and tries to be of any help
feels like his dad didn't really care about him and ignored him and so has some really fun, cool abandonment issues in regard to that lol
he's just a bit of a hot mess
but gets verrrrry locked in with his art, if he's painting he usually can't be pulled away easily
very flirty, very fun
not a lot of forethought goes into any decision he makes
WANTED: flings, hookups (past and present), close friends, confidante, a crush perhaps, enemies, people who tolerate him and his annoyance... idk anything please!!! (will try and formulate a REAL list stay tuned)

‘ tati gabrielle, demi woman, she/they, 28 / 280 , high fae ’ ― cauldron save you. it seems kaida hathaway has finally made it to the capital, the mercenary from the winter court is said to be bold and is said to describe themselves with the bitter burn of rum as it slides down your throat / the perfect throwing knife / crafted personas worn like an outfit and with all of this in mind their manipulative nature always seems to get them into trouble. may the mother hold them as they navigate this unthinkable time. ; written by honey.

sexuality  .  pansexual
occupation  .  mercenary
species  .  high fae
loyalty  .  the winter court
height  .  5'7"
𝐝𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬
(  tw  :  infidelity  )
love  is  such  an  interesting  little  concept,  something  that  kai  has  absolutely  no  interest  in  after  she  watched  it  ruin  her  mother.  their  birth  into  this  world  was  never  planned,  a  happy  surprise  on  her  mother’s  end,  a  unwelcome  on  her  father’s.  a  lord  of  autumn,  he  was  already  wed,  planning  to  have  children  with  a  wife  of  his  own…  the  beautiful  lady  of  winter  was  never  in  his  plans  either.  astrid  hathaway  was  a  beauty  of  her  own,  youngest  sibling  of  the  hathaways  and  eagerly  traveling  around  prythian  before  agreeing  to  settle  down  with  one  of  the  suitors  her  parents  picked  for  her.  meeting  nathan  ashway  and  being  swept  off  her  feet  wasn’t  what  she  ever  expected  when  she  came  to  the  autumn  court.  he  was  married,  she  knew  it  was  wrong,  but  astrid  fell  head  over  heels  for  the  charming  lord…  only  the  love  was  not  returned,  the  man  using  her  for  nothing  but  a  bit  of  fun  before  he  started  his  own  family.  the  night  astrid  announced  her  pregnancy,  he  demanded  she  leave,  and  announced  wishing  nothing  to  do  with  the  babe  they  created.
broken  hearted,  astrid  returned  to  the  winter  court  where  she  would  raise  kaida  alongside  their  cousins,  never  falling  in  love  again  and  preaching  the  dangers  of  it  to  any  who  would  listen.  kai  took  those  lessons  to  heart,  placing  their  own  under  lock  and  key.  years  later  their  father  reached  out,  but  it  took  decades  before  kai  even  deigned  to  reply.  she  visited  autumn  once,  meeting  her  cousins,  half  siblings,  and  father  for  the  first  time.  it  didn’t  go  horribly,  but  the  visit  was  cut  short  when  kai  got  a  contract  that  pulled  her  to  the  capital.  their  job  always  came  first,  something  they  would  not  waiver  on.  they  never  visited  autumn  again.
in  their  youth,  a  former  general  in  the  winter  court  took  an  interest  in  the  angry  little  child.  he  took  her  under  his  wing  and  trained  her  to  be  the  perfect  little  weapon.  a  child  shouldn’t  love  getting  knives  as  presents,  but  it  was  one  of  the  few  things  to  bring  a  smile  to  kai’s  lips.  becoming  a  mercenary  for  hire  was  never  quite  what  her  mother  envisioned,  but  there  was  no  changing  kai’s  mind  once  it  was  set.
kai  is  whip  smart,  a  schemer  and  a  planner  even  if  people  might  not  expect  it.  they  play  the  game  of  chess  while  everyone  else  is  playing  checkers.  she  has  little  fear  in  her  body,  a  bold  and  brash  fae  with  little  to  worry  about  and  no  shame  whatsoever.  kai  likes  to  poke  at  people  for  amusement,  loves  getting  under  someone’s  skin.  deep  down  she  possesses  the  ability  to  be  loyal  and  caring,  but  right  now  that  only  extends  to  her  cousin  demetria  and  her  mother.  
despite  growing  up  in  winter,  her  powers  far  more  align  with  that  of  autumn.  her  fire  magic  is  the  strongest,  followed  by  astral  projection  and  ice.  they  have  no  real  skill  in  memory  manipulation,  but  that  could  be  due  to  refusing  to  even  try.  mind  magic  creeps  them  out.

...𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚛𝚎𝚜𝚝 𝚒𝚜 𝚑𝚒𝚜𝚝𝚘𝚛𝚢
you were born out of wedlock so you were what your mother calls a mistake , but you don't know this until you've hit maturity. you presumed the man your mother married was your father, but you learn later your mother simply hid the truth from you
your mother had fallen for the former spymaster of the winter court, while he was a high fae in good standing, he would not choose between the woman he loved and his duty. your mother doesn't want this life, to have her husband at the beck and call of the high ruling family , she wanted to start a life together away from the court
so when she's pregnant with you, she keeps it from your father considering his refusal to leave the court as a rejection of her, and marries a tilted man quickly to pass you as his child. it seems that does not satisfy your mother, your a constant reminder of how the man she loved picked his duty over her, abandoned her. she does not give you affections, she gives you harsh words and what then your tender young mind believes to be a form of tough love from your mother
your mother raises you to be a wife, a proper lady, to marry a titled man and drills into you constantly not be foolish. you certainly do not want to marry a stranger. you wanted much more out of your life, you wished to be what your father ( unknown to you at this time ) was to be a part of something greater, to serve your high family as an an inner circle as the spymaster. you lived along side your father for years and never knew who he was. it seems as if neither did he, and when you do learn, its too late, he has left the winter court. for a time you leave the court as well, you run off and join the army when your mother and stepfather go behind your back to arrange a marriage for you
your time in the army has taught you much, it's there you hone your abilities, and you return when you learn that the high lord of the winter court has perished. when you return, you remain in court, working hard to prove yourself to the new high ruler of the winter court, to your high lady that you would serve her exceptionally, to you there's no greater honor than following in your biological father's footsteps and serving your home
years have gone by and you have no contact with your mother and you find no reason to after all that you've experienced at her hand. but your status as spymaster to the young high lady demetria allows you to search for your father, when you are not tied to your duty, you spend your free time searching for him

‘ nicola coughlan, cis woman, she/her, 30 / 300, high fae ’ ― cauldron save you. it seems eowynn caadlawon has finally made it to the capital, the lady from the dawn court is said to be bubbly and is said to describe themselves with faint laughter lines adorning tired eyes, warm as the sun and burning bright as one and fields of sunflowers and with all of this in mind their stubborn nature always seems to get them into trouble. may the mother hold them as they navigate this unthinkable time.
statistics :
label: the philanthropist.
positive traits: bubbly, loyal, empathetic.
negative traits: stubborn, scatterbrained, idealistic.
orientation: bisexual, biomantic.
gender: cis woman ( she / her pronouns ).
age: 30. 300.
species: high fae.
position: lady (sibling to high lord).
court: dawn.
abilities: high fae powers, healing
mbti: enfp.
zodiac: cancer.
noteworthy features: fiery red hair, bright eyes, soft freckles across her nose, warm smile.
introduction :
you are the second eldest caadlawon, not the high lady, and you were thankful for that. you never wanted that kind of pressure, you knew that despite your best intentions, you would have never been cut out for that sort of responsibility or stress. growing up, healing came naturally to you. it came to you just as walking and talking, as if it was something you were inherently supposed to do as second nature. this of course sparked the attention of your father who wanted nothing more than to use your proficiency in healing to expand that to others, to help create a dawn court that was " unstoppable " due to their ability to withstand such illnesses & injuries. you hated it. at your core all you ever wanted to do was good and you felt as though you were only doing the opposite. when sera was born and she took to healing just as easy as you did, you were immediately protective of her, fearful that your father would move on to give her the same treatment. it was only when she developed more and more abilities that you became incredibly worried, knowing how he was doing the same he had begun to do to you, to her. and her powers were stronger, so you could only imagine. you did everything you could to keep her safe, stepping in whenever possible. but it was never enough against your father, unfortunately. you can only hope that you had done something to at least make things a bit better. all your life you have wanted to be useful, you have wanted to use your status and abilities for good. and without your father in the picture, you finally could. now you are much of a philanthropist for the dawn court, often traveling to other courts when illnesses arise and need healing, and mentoring many within your own court, teaching them healing so that they may go back and spread it and help others. you work closely with medics and faes from all walks of life to help train them in healing. you are incredibly bubbly and charismatic but stubborn and stern when need to be. you are warm and inviting, always ready to lend an ear to anyone. due to the fact that you are doing what always seems to be a million things at once you tend to be a bit scatterbrained too, sometimes forgetting commitments and overbooking yourself. your family is everything to you, and you'd do whatever it takes to keep them safe and happy. at your core you are a helper.
wanted connections:
first love, ladies in waiting, oldest & best friend, those she mentors, enemies, more tbd !

𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐢𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 ;
you are the last of your siblings to be born, and are the apple of your father's eye. you want for nothing, a spoiled and rotten girl from a young age. anything you wanted, you got. anything you dreamed of was put into motion.
tutors and the like did not interest you, you were nowhere near the high seat and took off from your lessons at every chance you had, it is a miracle you can read and write
from a young age you had a longing to wander, you felt the thrill of being lost but also never felt more in your element when you did so
the court of nightmares was your first play ground, you had gotten lost within its depths for weeks on end, always coming back the leader of the wolf pack, once you knew every edge of the hewn city you turned to velaris, once again getting lost within its sparkling city lights. you did not wander into the mountains, even you had sense that that would not end well for anyone but still you looked upon it with so much wander so you turned to those you had visited and asked for stories and tales of its peaks
when you are old enough you leave the boundaries of the night court to visit the courts below your home and its years before you are back within its boundaries
you learn more about yourself and others, loving the wind in your hair and the dirt beneath your finger nails
but once you return you lock yourself in your room, not coming out until there is a child within your arms. you do not tell your family of the father of the child, never. you are protective of your daughter, only allowing a handful of people into her daily life
that was three years ago and now you have a little traveling buddy but now you keep to the streets of velaris and its wonders

you are born by steel and steel you remain for the rest of your life
you come from humble beginnings, your family working within the spring court's manner as you were left to explore the fields, streams and towns of the spring court
swords, and everything sharp or pointy interested you from a small age. you worked and trained tirelessly to perfect everything from form to technique
traveling is something that called to you when you were young and in your yearer years you did so, from north to south you travelled
becoming general meant everything to you, your hard work paid off, though the deaths you have caused weight painfully on your heart, and soul

BIO.
born from an affair between an illyrian general and a high fae lady from the court of night, a married lady whom already had a family of her own. unfortunately for nyx her mother does not survive the birth of a half illyrian babe, leaving her alone with a father who never wanted her to begin with. the man hated everything the little babe represented, a woman who he believe to be weaker and a half breed.
nyx had an older brother from her fathers first marriage whom she grew up with, the boy although he was only a few years older than her always tried to be the buffer between father and daughter. always tried to distract the man. not having their father's attention was always best.
even though he did not believe nyx would sum up to anything he forced her to train from a very young age, sometimes she felt he did it to punish her. as if she was the one to blame for have been born, and born a woman nonetheless. but she harden like a good warrior. sometimes when she showed progress she could almost see pride in her fathers eyes, but it never truly shown throuhg.
it was a surprise, not just to herself but to her father and brother when she began to move up the ranks of the camps. although nothing she could do would compare to the success of her brother, at least she wasn't looked down like a bother, at least she could pull her own weight.
she had gone to scope the human lands in orders of their high lord, see how the humans were fairing, gather information and things of the sort. that's when she met her, the most gentle woman of bright red hair and eyes as green as the threes in spring. she was taken by her almost instantly in a way she had never know she could, and she relished in it. she escaped there to see her any chance she could, any second she could manage. she was far too in love when she realized an immortal should not love a human.
nyx had planned to take her to the cauldron, if she was made fae they could truly be together. but she did not counted with her father finding out, his already shameful daughter had fallen in love with a human, the kind he detested the most. when nyx had taken her lover to the cauldron they had almost made it, almost however wasn't it making it.
her intersect them, fury in his eyes and going straight for the kill. nyx did everything she could, she was a good fighter but she could never do anything against her father's wrath. by the end of it nyx had lost everything she had ever cared for, her love, her father, and her wings. nyx managed to deliver the final blow to her father filled by the rage of losing her other half, but he had already destroyed her wings and she knew she would never fly again.
she never returned to the camp, nor night court soil. her heart blackened and hardened, she wondered from place to place for years before she settled in the court. at first she had been taken in by the king, but it had been his queen whom had stolen her loyalty without hesitation.
II. EXTRAS & OTHER THINGS
nyx misses flying quite a lot but there is nothing anyone can do for her wings. she has them mostly strapped to her back at all times, although with her being half fae she has mastered hiding them away which she opts for most of the time.
she has sworn off every emotion, and although she is really good at pretending the girl feels too much too strongly.
even in the illyrian camps she was often called a witch, something she enjoyed and has embraced even in the capital.
CONNECTIONS.
half older brother; he always tried to protect her from their father, even though her temperament never helped much, she hasn't seen him since the dark day she confronted her father and only she walked away.
half siblings on her mother side; nyx has always known they existed but has never met them, how they feel about her and her origin is upt.
old friends; from the night court, from the camps, or even from the human realms or someone who knew her late beloved
flings; self explanatory, she has a heart of stone but she ain't death

siblings: one half sibling
𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐢𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 ;
you are the last child your mother ever had, and you think you are the first one as well. you always wished for a sibling, but your mother refused
growing up you were allowed to roam and do as you pleased, your mother felt more like a best friend than a mother
you grew up fast as your mother left for long periods of time for work and travel, but you were always left with food and money
you got a job at a young age, and have been working since, you have a wonderful work ethic and look to life experiences versus school and books. but it did take you once you were 18 to learn to read and write
what you lacked in book smarts you made up in your streets smarts and charm
the first thing you bought when you were able to was a new dress, it was the first thing you ever bought for yourself and was not a hand-me-down from your mother
working in the palace you worked your way to lady in waiting and came with seraphina from the dawn court to the night court
it was a huge change but you love the night court and can never see yourself leaving, though you followed seraphina to the capital now you wished you had been able to stay behind but still you are trying to make the most of it all

@ofcourtfablesarchive ... manon & open.
she   picked   up   her   skirts   and   decided   she   needed   to   run.   she   ran   through   the   hilly   fields   of   the   outer   part   of   the   capital,   her   braids   coming   loose   and   her   hat   falling   to   the   field's   grass   but   manon   didn't   care.   a   giggle   left   her   lips,   it   was   the   most   free   she   had   felt   in   days.   finally   she   stopped,   bent   over   trying   to   gain   her   breath   once   more.   "you   don't   -"   she   paused   out   of   air.   "happen   to   have   water   do   you?"   manon   asked,   seeing   feet   before   her   vision.

a spare to the autumn court, you are labeled that well before you understood that it was a blessing
as you grew you could not help but to be jealous of the eldest with all of the attention that was given to him, but as you grew into your awkward teen phase, you saw how much of a blessing it was not to have the weight of the autumn court on your shoulders
even with the jealousy, you were kind to your brother and all of the siblings that followed. you are good natured and helped to raise the younger siblings, even when they pushed you away
you do not know when the vision started, they always just were, the memories are there but there's a fog around them. when people ask they always except some grand story on their beginning and are always disappointed with the reality
after your 118th year you wonder what your life is worth, you are not the heir but the spare and another small pang of jealous consumes you, you are free to do whatever you wish ... but sometimes you wish your life had been decided for you, its an odd sense
when your brother ascends the seat of high lord you do everything that is asked for you and are there to help him in anyway you can
you turn to healers to try and make your hands busy, to learn what there is to learn, and once you feel confident in that you turn to your court's towns and visit them to learn their skills of wood working, black smithing, anything anyone is willing to teach you
your journey to gaea is one you do not like, having only briefly leaving the autumn court here and there, but there is a small buzz about you that lights you up, to see and learn new skills
