Biography[]
Early Life[]
Titania Hilda Fay was born on Tír Nan Óg to Blaith, Fairy of Flowers, a pureblooded Sylvan, and Chilaun, Witch of Horses and Archery, a Mongol and Scythian. She was raised during a turbulent time in history. Even so, she had a good life.
As a princess, Titania reluctantly accompanied her mother on a diplomatic trip. After one particularly boring meeting, she went on a nature walk to get away from the humans. Bear hunting was common at the time, and she encountered a bear hunter on her walk. The hunter had already killed the mother and was about to kill the bear cub. This enraged Titania, and she attacked the hunter, slashing his face and arms. She never knew if the hunter survived or not as she immediately grabbed the bear cub and flew out of there. From that day on, she raised the cub, who she named Tréan, and made him her familiar.
At seventy, she was married to Obeira.
When the crimes of Kysa, Obeira's older sister, were discovered, she attacked Obeira and Titania in their bed, intending to use the the former's fear of her to give herself enough power to kill their mother. Kysa was warded off, but her attack resulted in the death of Tréan, and she took his body when she fled. The next time Kysa was seen, she'd turned Tréan's skin into a shawl. From that day forward, Titania had an ever lasting hatred for Kysa.
After Kysa's imprisonment and Hel's death, Obeira became queen of the Arctic Fairies. They couldn't simply incorporate the fleets into Tír Nan Óg as that would've caused an uproar and, likely, a rebellion amongst the Arctic Fairies. Obeira and Titania were forced to come up with a different way for them to rule both nations that would allow the fleets to keep their national identity. They came up with the idea of an empire. The fleets would still be the fleets, but they and Tír Nan Óg would be apart of a greater unified whole, the Sylvan Empire.
During mid 15th century, she instituted what would be come known as the Academic Revolution. This revolution was an overhaul of the Sylvan language, then known as the fairy language, to simplify the language and writing system to make it easier to learn. This reformation was spurred on by the invention of the printing press, which she quickly had her agents go an examine so they could replicate it. With this invention in their hands, Titania instituted compulsory education for sprites (children before they develop their powers), being the first country to do so and bringing literacy up from 27% to 43% in the first few years alone.
Titania went onto have five kids with Obeira, and the two of them were longest serving queens in the history of the Arctic Fleets and Tír Nan Óg.
She abdicated her throne to Morgana in the 1700s and died in 1806 from cancer, ascending to godhood. She now exists as a bear guardian of the European forests.
First Contact[]
First contact with an alien race occurred during her mother's tenure as queen, but she was there to witness it. The Tritons were experimenting with their gate technology and ended up on Earth. A Tír Nan Óg fishing vessel encountered them, and once they realized what the visitors were, they brought them to their queens, Queen Blaith and Queen Chilaun. Chilaun, ever the distrustful one, wanted to banish their entire kind from the planet. Blaith was more open to the idea of forming a relationship with this alien power. A young Titania wanted to dissect them, which both of her mothers shot down. They ultimately decided not to take action against the aliens but also not to move too quickly with any offers of alliance.
Appearance[]
Titania had green eyes, a similar color to Diana's, dark brown curly hair, similar to Morgana and Morrigan's hair, and an ashy complexion. Her wings were reminiscent of fangs or blades. As a result of mutagenic nature of Terrestrial Magic, she had claws and fangs, and certain hair follicles produced quills, particularly on her head.
She typically wore a green and purple dress with a leather-lined hood to cover her quills in crowded areas.
Personality[]
If you were to ask multiple people to describe Titania, you would get multiple different answers. She was cordial to most, but if she perceived that she was being disrespected, she would swiftly put them in what she saw as their place, especially as she got older. (In modern vernacular, she could be a bit of a Karen and had quite the ego.) She put on a dignified mask to hide her true savage nature.
As a politician, she was cut-throat, making sure that no matter what happened, the empire would come out on top. She cared greatly for her people but little for her own soul in comparison. The political world she lived in was unforgiving, and sometimes, people needed to be removed from the picture for the safety of a nation. She would create and send out beast constructs to do her morally ambiguous dirty work. That way, only her soul would be damaged, and her people would be safe.
As a spouse, she was highly attentive to her wife. Growing up, Obeira was frequently an afterthought due to her sister's condition and being the second born. Titania wanted to make sure Obeira never felt that way with her. She helped her learn how to be a queen and helped her through her anxiety and panic attacks.
As a mother, she loved her daughters but also had extremely high expectations for them all. This resulted in a slightly complicated relationship with her daughters. Most notably, she would frequently get on Morgana's case for not making eye-contact, no matter how many times her daughter expressed how uncomfortable it made her. She was also very protective of her children, especially Morgana. With the prophesy of the twins over their heads, she did everything in her power and went to every measure to keep her safe, which Morgana would describe as overbearing and annoying. Even with her overbearing nature, she could be gentle with her daughters. She helped Morgana through her depressive state and accept her disability.
As an animal fairy, Titania adored animals. During her reign, the castle could best be described as a zoo. She is the reason why the Sylvan Empire is at the forefront of animal rights protection. She liked animals a lot more than humans.
Powers & Abilities[]
Titania had all the standard abilities of a Terrestrial Fairy, and as an animal fairy, she had the standard enhanced senses, claws, and fangs. She had the ability to create beast constructs out of any non-living solid material.
She was most famous for her creation and use of the Beast Aura spell. She created the spell to compensate for the largest drawback of the Beast Transformation spell, the rather uncomfortable, borderline painful process of learning a new transformation. Beast Aura bypasses the need to acclimate one's body to a new form by removing the need to transform entirely. The user focuses the beastial energies of Animalia into their aura instead directly into their bodies, shaping their aura into the desired animal and gaining its powers. This requires far more skill than Beast Transformation.
Fairy Queen's Curse[]

Items[]
- Imperial Crown: when she was queen, Titania wore the Imperial Crown. When she abdicated the throne to Morgana, she passed the crown down to her. This item is made of silver and three blue pearls. It dates back to the first fairy queen, created for her by some of her most devout followers, and has been passed down as both a symbol of power and wealth and a meditation focus. The silver of the crown has the ability to promote the wearer's inner wisdom and intuition and protect the wearer. The three blue pearls have the ability to enhance the wearer's psychic abilities and clear the wearer's mind of the lies of self-doubt and to promote tranquility of the mind and the wearer's courage. The crown also represents the people's trust and loyalty to the queen.
