Seelie Court

The Seelie Court (also called Summer Court ) was a highly selective court made up of fey creatures.

Description
The Seelie Court was home to an elitist and a high society of pure-blood fey and occasionally other creatures if they were of exceptional appearance and/or intelligence, but only if they had fey ancestors. This usually restricted the candidates to celestials and elves. Members discussed politics amongst themselves at meetings along with watching elegant performances from fey local talents.

Organisation and membership
The throne is a matriarcal monarchy, no man has survived the ritual called 'Rite of Succession' to access the thrones when they attempted to. When a pretender attempts and fails the challenge, they die.

The organisation was opposed to the Unseelie Court, because of a rivalry between their leaders.

Most of its members were of good alignement, even if it was not always the case.

Appearance
The Seelie Court was a reflection of nature, which can be explained by the link that fey had with it. A living ceiling was supported by ash tress, and glowing flowers among treetops brought brightness. The throne and the court were interspersed with jewels and gems.
