Titania

Titania's earliest known stories relate to her saving the infant god Lugh from death after being thrown into the ocean by Balor. In this time the Fey were largely a hidden folk, working in between the larger forces of the Eladrin, the Fomorians and Tuatha Dé Danann where they could, doing what was possible to influence events in their favor.
The Queen of Air and Darkness was born as the echo of Titania at her birth. The two were in opposition from the beginning, and when Una and Finvarra disappeared, along with the influence of the Tuatha Dé Danann over The Feywild, it created a power vacuum that the two were only too willing to fill. The Queen of Air and Darkness did not create the corruption within the hearts of the Fey, but in her heart it had deep roots, tendrils that spread to those closest to her.
Things began to grow hopeless for Titania's forces when her strongest allies- the Elves began to leave the plane due to the actions of the Fomorians. The Fey had pushed against the forces of the fallen titans once before, but with the Queen of Air and Darkness bringing further destruction and blight to The Feywild it became impossible to spare the resources needed to defend the Elves and survive. When the last remaining great clan of Shinaelestra took the dark gift of Pale Night, they routed the Fomorians, pushed them underground, and prevented the spread of Shabbith-Ka's influence. With the influence of the Outer Gods reduced, Titania and the Queen of Air and Darkness became the two strongest entities on the plane, which was always the intention of The Dark Lady.
The Queen of Air and Darkness called upon her General Cegilune and the other high members of her Unseelie Court. Auril was ordered to bring her forces South, pushing towards the Murkendraw, trying to eliminate any Seelie forces North of the great swamp, while Cegilune and the other hags participated in a ritual with The Queen of Air and Darkness and agents of Lolth. A sacrifice was placed upon an altar deep underground in the forest, East of the Lake of Dreams, an eladrin demigod named The Rose King would be the tribute, and his death sealed the fate of the entire plane.
The Feywild was thrown into chaos as the Plane of Shadows was overlapped with The Feywild, bringing forth the Long Night, a period of unending darkness in the plane and pressing chaos, cementing the rule of the Queen.
The Queen of Air and Darkness was not stopped by Titania and The Seelie Court. Despite all efforts whenever the two clashed neither was able to finish the other off, and even with a stalemate the Long Night was ever-present.
The Long Night could not be ended until the ascension of Tiandra and the creation of the new Fey courts.

Relationships

She is the wife of Oberon, the mother of both Verenestra and Damh, and her matriarchal role in her court is unquestioned thanks to their influence. She is attended by four sprites named Cobweb, Peaseblossom, Moth, and Mustardseed who are always nearby as well as a Human child that she keeps as an adopted son (although their name is a mystery to all but Titania and Oberon). Titania is somewhat distant from her granddaughter Tiandra, who feels as though she was forced to expel the Unseelie Court on her own terms.
Titania is considered the superior of each of the other courts of Fey as well and most evil aligned Fey at the very least regard her with respect. Titania was the twin of The Queen of Air and Darkness. Titania is opposed to Chernovog, Auril, and the remaining members of the Unseelie Court. She is also strongly opposed to Karontor and his fomorian followers, whose constant machinations against the denizens of The Feywild have been a constant threat.
