The Faerie


Vassal
xxxxxSer Artegal is a vassal of House Gwydion, born from a tryst between King Arthur Pendragon's bastard, Tom a'Lincoln and Caelia, the Faerie Queene, Sidhe of House Gwydion. As Sidhe kinain, he's walked the middle ground between the Mundane and the Dreaming for a millenia and a half, blessed/cursed with immortality by virtue of his mother's blood and ancient faerie magicks. As such, he's lived through the times before the Shattering, then through the Interregnum and the Resurgence (Changelings with Remembrance should feel free to mail/page if interested in ginning up backstory) and now into the Autumn. He serves House Gwydion faithfully and competently, assisting in their affairs both of the Dream and the Mundane.

xxxxxDamsel in distress needs rescuing from dastardly Dauntain? He's your man. Dragon (or other pesky chimera) needs slaying? This is your guy. Need a Champion to stand for you in a Trial by Combat where cold iron might treacherously come into play? He's the one you call. The forces of Banality giving you trouble? Look no further. Assuming that the cause is just, of course. He IS Gwydion, after all.


The Mundane


Not Much Going On ... Yet!
xxxxxHe's spent an equal time in the Dreaming and the Mundane over the course of his long life, with his time in the Mundane taking place at key moments in history on this or that quest for reasons that remain largely mysterious even to him, though they are known to his House and liege. The most recent time that he was seen walking the Mundane was during World War II, where he was deployed to defend Albion's interests during the war and fight against the supernatural soldiers that Hitler's Third Reich had assembled. Why has he reappeared now, and in Prospect of all places? Only time will tell.
