Fae NPC of the Seelie Court
Seelie Fae have just one "True Self"; this is who they really are in their heart of hearts at all times. They also have four Facades (what their personality appears to be on the surface); one to wear for each season. Each of these Facades remains the same every year, so if a Seelie Fae appears to be a Leader this Spring, they will surely be a Leader again next Spring. These seasonal shifts in personality can catch those unfamiliar with the Fae off-guard, but those who have known them for many years have long-since grown accustomed to their friend's "eccentricities."
True Self (Permanent): Curmudgeon: You're irascible, and cynical and vocally so. Joy and laughter? Bah, humbug! You are happiest when someone does something stupid, as you predicted that they would.
- Facade during every Spring: Hedonist: Live for today, because tomorrow may never come. You are happiest when you have a great time, or manage to fully express your enthusiasm for life.
- Facade during every Summer: Follower: You're happy to help the leaders to accomplish their goals, and stabilize the group with your support. You are happiest when your group accomplishes something due to your support.
- Facade during every Autumn: Competitor: There is no greater thrill than the thrill of victory, and you'll do anything to feel it. You are happiest when you win a contest, formal or informal.
- Facade during every Winter: Jester: You are the fool, the comic, the smart-ass, who's always looking for the humor in a situation. You are happiest when you lift someone's spirits, or ease their pain with your humor.
Fae NPC of the UnSeelie Court
Unlike the Seelie, an UnSeelie Fae has more than one "True Self"; they have four. These remain the same during that season each year. Unlike a Facade, which is just an act put on for the benefit of others, these True Selves are who the UnSeelie really is at heart during that particular season. UnSeelie also have a Facade for each season, but it almost never remains the same from year to year. They randomly take on a new Facade every time that there's a change of season. This truly makes the UnSeelie the most unpredictable of creatures.
True Self every Spring: Confidant: You like and understand people, and like to give advice. You're usually good at it too. You are happiest when someone confides in you on a personal level. - Spring Facade this Year: Autocratic: You must be in control of all situations at all times. You are happiest when you maintain control during a situation and succeed.
True Self every Summer: Child: Whether you actually are or are not a child in chronological age, you haven't grown up emotionally, and prefer to let someone else take care of you. You are happiest when you can act carefree, and people help you with no apparent gain for themselves. - Summer Facade this Year: Show-off: You are flamboyant as hell, and love to be the center of attention. You are happiest when you dazzle or impress another person.
True Self every Autumn: Autocratic: You must be in control of all situations at all times. You are happiest when you maintain control during a situation and succeed. - Autumn Facade this Year: Scrupulous: Honesty is the best policy; integrity is the greatest virtue. You are true to your values, and to everyone around you- all the time. You are happiest when you remain completely honest through a situation where it seems dishonesty would have worked better-and then it turns out your way was for the best.
True Self every Winter: Bravo: You have little tolerance for weakness, especially in yourself. You could be a proud warrior, or a just plain bully. You are happiest when you intimidate or physically force someone to back down, or do what you want them to do. - Winter Facade this Year: Optimist: You can always see that silver lining, despite the dark cloud looming in front of it. You are happiest when your conviction that all will turn out for the best gets the group through-and it turns out that you were right!
