Unseelie Court
The Unseelie Court, also called the Gloaming Court, was an organization of dark fey creatures surrounding the Queen of Air and Darkness. The court's influence was felt far and wide across the Feywild.
The Unseelie Court accepted within its ranks any creature with any trace amount of Fey ancestry. As such, many creatures that could be considered monstrous, malformed, and even monstrous were openly welcomed within the Unseelie Court. Non-fey were rarely granted admittance within. While members of the court tended to be more intellectual they eschewed the trappings of civilization for a more natural environment.
Some fey Eladrin believed they could reincarnate as members of the Unseelie Court, provided they led an exceptional series lives and reincarnations.
One of the more notable groups within the Unseelie Court was the Dark Hunt, also known as the Wild Hunt after the phenomenon in which they participated. This group was a loose organization of the most skillful hunters among the Unseelie. The Queen sent them on all manner of missions to fetch various things or creatures for her entertainment, and they were expected to obey her commands without question.
Although mainly composed of fey, extremely skilled non-fey were sometimes permitted to join the Dark Hunt, such as its last known leader, an Elf called Ice.
