The Sidhe
The Sidhe are the most human looking of all the fey. Their hair can be any colour, and some Sidhe have patterns of leaves or flowers in their hair, while others have hair that looks/feels like metalic substances. They have tri-coloured eyes and luminous skin. Shades of skin include pale white, black (true black, not dark brown), pastel shades, brown, and tanned (known as sun-kissed, a rare colour in the Seelie Court). Seelie Sidhe generally have creamy or golden skin and ligher, more vibrant shades of hair colour. Unseelie Sidhe have paler or darker skin. Since they accept Sidhe that are exiled from the Seelie Court, members of the Unseelie court have a range of hair colours. The traditional Unseelie shades are black, red and other 'darker' colours.
All Sidhe are willowy and taller than the average human. They are also physically stronger and breed slower than humans. They are magical beings who specialise in glamour and have hands of power.
They are comfortable with their nudity, and touch each other for comfort without it becoming sexual. While humans always view touching and nudity as something sexual, this is not the case with Sidhe. Some Sidhe have particular power over emotions or lust.
Cold iron and steel can harm and kill a Sidhe. They heal quicker than humans, and can heal any injury made by weapons of any other metal. Sidhe cannot survive a bullet through the chest though. The killing blow is usually one through the heart.
