The Summer Blaze Court

“Let the flames of passion burn away hesitation.”

Ruler

Lord Solandrin, Flame of Glory

Seasonal Domain

Summer — Passion, vitality, triumph, heat, and conflict

Overview

The Summer Blaze Court rules over the height of power and intensity in the Feywild. Governed by Lord Solandrin, this court embodies the fierce heat of summer, the drive to conquer, and the hunger to live fully. It is a court of warriors, lovers, and rebels—where every emotion runs hot and bright.
It influences Tarnith most during the Solstice of Flame, when magic flares wild and tempers run high.

Court Aesthetic

Their domain blazes beneath an eternal sun. Crimson banners flutter atop golden spires, and lava-fed forges sing hymns of strength. Fey knights clad in gilded plate duel beneath flame-lit trees, and laughter, music, and clashing blades fill the air.
Court members often wear red-gold robes, flame-kissed steel, or molten glass. Their presence radiates confidence and charisma.

Notable Figures

Lady Caldraya, Ember-Swan of War – tactician and poet of battlefield ballads

The Solari Blades – elite duelists whose swords ignite with conviction

Brannir the Bright-Eyed – fey emissary who negotiates with Tarnith’s warlords

Beliefs and Power Structure

The Summer Court values victory, love, strength, and willpower. Conflict is seen as a purifier of truth. Passion drives their decisions, and duels often settle disputes. While noble in bearing, many see them as arrogant or volatile.
They view mortals as kindling—full of potential, but often too timid to ignite.

Relations with Other Courts

Symbols and Relics
