Who's your favourite Awnsheghlien?
I know some people enjoy the Gorgon or the Raven. But who is your favourite and and why?

Rhoubhe
Why?
He´s special in that he is more of a sad character then a true villain. Sure, he is an absolute terror to the neighboring peasants and quite evil, yet in a way he is like the spurned ex boy/girlfriend who begins to do everything to destroy for the one who left them.
He welcomed the humans to Cerilia, made several human friends, and when they started to cut down the forest, invade sidhe lands, he went to his friends, asked them to stop. They ignored him, alternatively to make him even more"human" laughed at him, or beat him up, likely killing sidhe he loved.
So he went over into hatred. A hate that as Rhoubhe is immortal, have raged since, yet its not born from lust for power as with most awhnsheglien, but from sadness and a feeling of beeing betrayed.

Oh, I like Teodor Profiev, because he is borderline. He is not awnshegh yet, but at the same time he is not ehrshegh. The blood of Azrai runs through him, willing him to use it, but he must avoid giving in. He is a great opportunity for DMs to tease and perplex the players (ours did!).
The Spider is another good one because of the twisted personality. It knows what it is now, but what it came from is another question. Quite what sort of person it should be perplexes him.

The Serpent.
I love the idea he's able to grant spells to his clerics, as if he has reached at least a demigod status....Michael Roele's spirit will cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war...

That's a tough one, I'll have to get back to you on that.
One law, One court, One allied people, One coin, and one tax, is what I shall bring to Cerilia.

Right now, I would say my favorite as a Player and a GM is "the Magian" and it has a lot to do with how he's played.
He is intelligent, methodical, and ruthless when necessary. He has a way of appearing to be a savior to some and the devil incarnate to others. He's a mage of great power, but also has some lieutenants that are quite capable; a force to be reckoned with on any level.
My second would be the Spider; the insanity makes him interesting and unpredictable; it's his moments of lucidity that can make him down right terrifying.d'estre bons et leaulx amis et vrais ensemble et de servir l'un 'autre envers et contre tous

Difficult one...there are so many to love!
Rhuobhe...never cared too much for him until recently. He never got to shine properly. Not until he was finally killed by Braedonnal Tuare and that poor elf inherited Rhuobhe's curse. So it was acutally Rhuobhe's death that finally made him a star, allowing me to highlight how the Manslayer had tired of 'life' and willing gave it up to find some peace. How his killer knew, even before the fatal blow, that his fate would be no different from Rhuobhe's. Knowing that he would fight the curse tooth and nail, and try to do right, but that he must eventually succumb - or do as Rhuobhe and pass it on. No fairy tales with happy endings for these fey.

The Sphinx made an interesting appearance in one of my games; the regent of the PETG, wanting to expand his holdings East got involved with him. Was finally able to cure his poison-induced madness. The result was an intelligent awnie who felt indebted to the PETG regent. So he allowed the PETG into his lands. There were some Anuirean regents who found this rather odd...diplomatic relations with an awnshegh and all - for even though the Sphinx was no longer a raging beast he was still accursed and not an entirely good person. None of the Sphinx subordinates liked the treaty. Interesting mix of magic, madness, divine blood, gold and diplomacy. Very nice side-story.

The Spider. It spits, it jumps, it scuttles from side to side while spinning its little web. There's no reasoning with the creature, and even should you kill it, you need to work harder than Van Helsing in a transylvanian brothel to keep it that way.
Its also *always* there. Smack dab in the middle of everything, ready to send out innumerable hosts of creepy-crawly shit to scare the children and regents of the South Coast into the next week. And of course, like every good half-creature, its bat shit insane. It's like all of the best Lovecraftian tales gathered into one bundle of Anuirean joy! Gooo spidey!
