Creatures of the Kingdom of the Summer Court

In the Kingdom of the Summer Court, the Fae are considered of one species. Don't tell them this but they are the same species as thier own.....let's call them "opposition" in the other Courts. Now, just like the humans race as a whole is a species and yet there are variations of us in different ethnicities, Caucasians, Asians and the like, so too are the Fae divided from one another and yet bound to one another. You have the commonly heard of subsets of the Fae: The Little Folk. You know the kind. Pixies (mean little buggers, they play practical jokes on humanity and other Fae), dwarves (compact, short and mighty, they reach maturity at age 3 and have gray beards by 7 love shiny things and can't appear in sunlight or risk being turned into stone), gnomes ( earth elementals that live below ground and guard the treasures of the world. Wonderful metal Smith's particularly of swords and breastplates) and leprechauns (NOT the Lucky Charms dude. Irish Fae who are very cunning and found amongst clovers). Then there are the, for lack of a better description, we'll call them the NOT Little Folk. Some of these are easy to picture, Dryads(Creatures that dwell in trees, preferably Oaks. Druids used to address them for advice and wisdom), Nymph (They live in every tree. Protective of thier groves so don't piss on that tree.), Elves (top dogs of the Courts. Trooping fairies.), trolls (Do NOT go over that bridge!), Kelpies (Water faries that can take the form of whatever thier victims, ehem you, finds pleasing, take them under water, drown them and eat them), Selkies (take the form of a seal and don't bother humanity but at times take a human as a mate by finding a relic that allows them to live on land or thier mate to live underwater), Satyrs ( Lustful drunken woodland God's according to the Greek mythology and Romans but many are Fae as well), Beansidhe (think Banshee ghost but Fae version), Goblins (atrocious Fae and malicious), Hob Goblins ( Friendlier and like to live in houses, solitary for the most part), Red Caps (The most evil of the goblins. Live in ruined towers and castles. They dye thier caps red with human blood), Sylphs (Think Tinkerbell. Air fairies. Transparent and surrounded by a glow), Salamanders (NOT the lizard. Fire fairy. Live in fire.) Undines (Water fairies. Found in Forrest pools and waterfalls. They enjoy singing), Rock Fairies (Live in Rocks and very wise), Phouka ( they appear in various animal forms and are thought to be unsafe, think of Loki's drinking buddies and you get the gist), Brownies (House fairies, be nice to them unless you hate your house) the list goes on. One would be wise to remember that just because they are considered of the same, let's call it "enthic" background, does NOT mean they are all identical in appearance. That would be racist of you and not to mention, in the presence of ANY of them, VERY, VERY bad for your health. Oh and there's the humans who walk around oblivious to them all.
