The Prince of Fools
Hyrsam (a.k.a. The Prince of Fools)
It is not uncommon for a Fey to be exiled from the Courts; Queen Titania is quick to remove anyone tainting her Court's beauty, and Queen Mab leaves anyone who can't keep up with the Unseelie behind. What is far less common is for an exiled Fey to be remembered after they leave the Courts, and even less common is to have this happen with both Courts. There is one being who has managed such a feat (or two, in this case) is Hyrsam, the Archfey Prince of Fools. The stories of how he was exiled from each Court are at this point countless, potentially by his own design. Hyrsam loves mischief and tricks above all, which range from harmless or life-threatening for everyone involved. Stories say he is incapable of taking life seriously, which to some creates a sort of allure-- and for others, likes the two Fey Queens, means that he is simply an annoyance. Still, he historically has proven to be a powerful (if unreliable) ally to those willing to tolerate him, especially if it means giving him a chance to stick it to one of the Courts.
