Four Courts
"The Four Courts may seem like they're at each other's throats, but rest assured: they are. And it's worse than you think."
~Seak Beardo Von Shmit of Abide and Seak's Bizarre Bazaar
Structure
The Four Courts Leagueis led by representatives from each court, forming a council that mediates disagreements by consensus. Each court has equal standing, and decisions are made based on a tangled web of motives and intrigue.
The Four Courts that make up the league are:
Dreamfrost
Bloomdance
Radiant Court
Hollowvale
Culture
The culture of the Four Courts is nominally one of celebration and cooperation, with each court contributing its unique traditions and customs to the alliance. In reality, it's part social mixer, part posturing contest, and part viper's pit of intrigue.
Public Agenda
The Four Courts alliance seeks to maintain peace and stability in the Feywild, promote cooperation and understanding among Fey creatures, and protect the natural beauty and balance of the Feywild. Their stated prime directive is to "Avert another Feywar," an event that nobody remembers and no evidence exists for ever having happened.
Assets
The alliance has access to the magical resources of each court, including the ability to influence the seasons themselves. This gives them considerable power and influence in the Feywild.
History
The Four Courts alliance was established long ago, during a time of great upheaval in the Feywild. The leaders of the four courts came together to form an alliance, recognizing that their individual strengths were stronger when combined. Since then, the alliance has endured, serving as a symbol of unity and cooperation in the Feywild.
"Harmony in Diversity, Strength in Unity."
