NAME: Eilwedd
And then came her ladies, one two, three,
All radiant by her side.
"Come hither," she cried, "sweet bonny knight!
Take a fairy for your bride!"

Lovers: Her husband Daerian and her lover Kit
Other relations: Cousins: Kabn (f) and Tantokal (m); Grandchild Tmor (m), Great-grandchild Sûriontin
Abilities: Playing on other's emotions, pitting people against each other.
Personality: The only use Eilwedd has for the feelings of other people is as amusement as she uses them. She loves to manipulate others, especially if someone gets hurt by it. She stole Daerian from Lillana solely to destroy her life (and prove that she's better at attracting men). She's extremely overprotective with her children, and directs all her vengeance towards those who would oppose or harm them. It is a point of pride for her that her claws aren't visible in her manipulative intrigues.
She is very posessive, and considers her children as hers, which accounts for her protective stance. But she does have genuine emotional attatchement towards her illegitimate daughter, Kedhi. As soon as she realized this she made sure that Kedhi was smuggled to the most remote region of Faërie, to be brought up by commoners. She did this because she was sure that if anyone ever found out that the Ice Queen of Dikara ever had true feelings for her child they would use it as a weapon against her. This would most assuredly destroy both Eilwedd and Kedhi, something she cannot risk.
She was also quite disturbed by the affection she felt, and responded instantly by removing the cause for these feelings from her presence as soon as possible to prevent further feelings from ever developing. The whole affair was very confusing for Eilwedd, and she has worked hard to make sure as few people as possible know about her exiled daughter. Not the least because she could easily become an heir to the house....
Ambitions: To destroy as many relationships as possible without being caught. Become Queen. Make sure that Kedhi lives a happy life. Break her personal record for most relationships ruined with one plot without being discovered as the culprit behind it all.
Fears: That her daughter Kedhi will get entangled in the courtly politics, only to be used against her. Losing one of her children.
Likes: Candy and sweets of all kinds. Men.
Dislikes: Lillana, the children from Daerian's first marriage. Gold, which she thinks looks tacky and tasteless.
Habits: She hums when a plan is in action. Sucks peppermint pastilles when planning something.
Occupation: Matriarch or Dikara
Tresured posessions: A bag of pastilles which is always full. Her collection of wedding and engagement rings.
Quote: "I'm so happy to see that you're still together. I was afraid that his little affair would ruin your relationship. Oh, you haven't heard? I thought everyone knew..."
