Summer Court
The Summer Court is the name given to both the higher court of Seelie fey and the geographic area of the Feywild in which they reside.
The lands of the Summer Court are warm, lush, and unspeakably beautiful. The spectrum of visible light acts in reverse from the Material Plane here; things that would normally appear red are violet and vice versa, things that would normally appear orange are indigo and vice versa, and things that would normally appear yellow are blue and vice versa. Green remains the same in both realms, and dominates the heavily forested landscapes.
Denizens of the Summer Court include Eladrin, pixies, and sprites. A few of the Courtless, particularly satyrs and goblins, make semi-permanent homes in the Summer Court.
The current Fool of the Fey of the Summer Court is Isabella Giocoso, known as the Exquisite Fool. She is the most recent fool to have been conscripted; her predecessor, the Wistful Fool, was obliterated by King Oberon almost immediately before Isabella's appointment.
Locations
- The City of Astrazalin, the largest city in the Feywild and the home of Titania and Oberon's grand palace.
- The Goblin Market of Astrazalin, a common first destination for mortals seeking to travel in the Feywild. The goods offered for sale by the goblin and pixie merchants are exotic and intoxicating to the point of tempting mortals lured in by the free samples to seek them out at the cost of all else in their lives.
Structure
The leader of the Summer Court is Queen Titania, alongside her consort King Oberon. The Summer Court is the largest and most organized formal court, with seats for ten archfey:
- Mab, Lady of Dreams, Titania's mother and a former queen of the court
- Verenestra, the Maid of May

- Flimandflam, the Proper Twins
- Galatea, Heart of the Stream
- Iolanthe
- Arobän, Prince of Grapes
