what are some seelie court subclutures
This is a subject I haven't developed very well yet, so I only have a couple of concepts at the moment:
Mockmutts: Kobolds who magically disguise themselves as dogs to beg for food. In the Seelie Court, kobolds are an oppressed underclass that is not allowed to leave their slums until after dark, when the elves and most other peoples are asleep. Because of this, begging on the streets is not very lucrative for them.
However, some kobolds have learned to transform themselves into dogs so they can sneak out of their slums during the day and beg rich people for food. The Seelie people are much more sympathetic to a hungry dog than a hungry kobold, so they usually feed them.
Mockmutts have tight-knit little gangs, where they run organized rings to gather food and sometimes even steal things in dog form. There are heavy consequences if the Seelie Guard catches on, so they must swear loyalty to eachother, promising not to rat the whole gang out if they're caught.
Pearlies: Pearlies are simply Seelie citizens--usually elves and adhene--who pride themselves on keeping their communities free of dark magics like necromancy. Wherever there is morbid activity, the Pearlies are there, clutching their pearls, waggling their fingers, and snitching to the Guard. They're basically nosy Karens who want to police everyone's behavior. They are determined to win the Purity Olympics(tm) by acting holier-than-thou and morally superior than everyone around them. They hate anything that glorifies death, violence, depression, or other morbid subjects. They wear a lot of white, gold, and pastel colors as a display of their moral purity.
Sometimes they do helpful things, like exposing truly disgusting and illegal activities. But mostly they just complain because they think today's media is too violent, kids curse too much, etc.
