Nicknames: King of the Fae, Lord of Shadow, Wraith of the Forest

Hometown or where you were born:  The Enchanted Realm

Current Residence:  The Enchanted Realm

Age: Time holds no count for me

Class: King

What do you do, your main function in life/society: I am the watcher and caregiver of those of the Enchanted Realm

Have you ever gone skinny-dipping / do you know how to swim: The answer should be clear.

Do you make fun of people: That would be unkingly of me, besides, one should already know their place.

Favorite Color: The shade of twilight. What better hour is it than that which the sun hath no quarrel with my shadows?

Have you ever committed or been convicted of a crime: I break my own rules, but when you create them you are allowed to break them.

Closest friends/How did you meet: My closest friend is Brodd the troll. He has long been a welcomed friend to my forest.

One Pillow or two: I prefer to sleep on a grassy knoll under cloudy sky. Pillows are simply a mortals way to capture the comfort one gets while sleeping on such bedded earth.

Pets: One could say Puck is more a pet than a servant. Sadly, nothing suits him better than the fleas he bares.

Favorite Type of Music: Music is music, a thing of translucent beauty.

Hobbies/Pastimes: I spend much of my time wandering in the cities and towns of the mortals. Their antics and ways of life are fascinating.

Personal Hygiene: Enchanted folk are hardly separate from Mother Nature herself and could not possibly call earth unclean. So neither dirt nor dust could label us unkept.

Favorite Food: I enjoy the blackest of olives.

Are your parents alive, do you get along with them: I was simply created, a true testament to Mother Nature's magic.

If your parents are dead, when and how did they die: 

Favorite place to relax: There is a forest wherein ruins of a long decade city of men lies. Within this forest is a clearing, and in that clearing stands the remnants of a church which now stands covered in moss and grass. There is a stone bench in its center, that is where I relax in silence and solace.

Favorite Holy Day / Why: Beltane, the beginning of the summer half of the year, a time for forbidden joy and festivals.

Favorite Drink: Wine, though it is much better when given to a mortal, for they find the ground less sturdy and their language less important.

What's your bedtime: I sleep when I tire, which may be oft depending on the events of the day.

What, if anything, do you usually wear on your feet: The body and earth were never meant to be separate, though Puck has recently found a pastime involving my toes and his heels. So the fairies made me sandals to protect my feet.

Are you married or single: I am wed to the breathtakingly beautiful Titania, Queen of the Fairies. The mortals have created a word to describe the pure happiness we both share, love. And still the mortals have yet to understand or imitate the worth of the word.

Do you have a family / who are they: My family is those around me.

Favorite Entertainment: I love to create mischief in the mortal realm and watch as they struggle to make sense of things.

Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up: Since I have always been as I am, I could not say.

Least Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up: 

Favorite Sport: I enjoy racing with Titania through the mortal streets, of course I give her a head start every time.

Most Humiliating Moment: When Titania and I met it was a foggy afternoon in a meadow. When I went to approach her as she danced I stumbled on a rock and nearly lost my stride. I do not think, however, that she saw, but at the time I knew not and was certain she would laugh.

Proudest Moment: Being King, there are never any moments to not be proud of, with the exception of topics concerning Puck. But the moment I was proudest, was the day I wed Titania.

Craziest Person or silliest you know: I must say there is a mortal who clads himself in brightly colored costumes and dances feverishly, sometimes on his head. He juggles and sings and often looks to be mocking another.

What do you look for in the opposite sex: I could find no perfection in another like that I found in Titania. She has stolen my heart and my deepest love.

In our Hierarchical Society everybody has somebody "over" them, Who is your immediate "overlord" Mother Nature is above me.

And how do you feel about that person: I spend great lengths of time with Mother Nature in council, for she is wisest of all.

Favorite Sport to watch: I enjoy watching those mortal jousters. I admit, I did have Puck and Brodd attempt to recreate the sport but one can imagine how that faired.

Do you remember your first kiss: Of course, it was the same day Titania and I met. When our eyes met through the fog I forgot all else and could think of nothing but the beauty that stood before me. After length, I could stand it no more and our lips greeted one another before our words.

Do you keep in touch with your childhood friends: Indeed. Those in the forest travel quickest on foot and reach the many distances of the land with haste, one can never go without seeing a friend of old.

Where is your favorite "Vacation" spot: India. I took Titania there long ago and ever since we visit oft.

Have you ever been overseas: I have been in every direction known to fae.

Do you have Dirt/Mud floors or Stone: The earth contains these all, and the forest is where I live.

What is your bed made of: All things of nature, only there will you find true comfort.

How many people sleep in your bed: Titania is the only other who may share my bed.
