Fairies G-K

Gorddu, Hag of the Hump
Originally dwelling near Glouchester, Gorddu took up residence on Twmbarlwm near Risca following the Resurgence. She is an enemy of both fey courts- her kind were hunted by Arthur with the help of King Gwythyr ap Greidawl and King Gwyn ap Nudd. She is the child of King Hafgan and Queen Gorwenn of Uffern and is a powerful witch. She looks like an extremely hideous and deformed old woman and will aid individual fey or humans but only for a terrible price and often proves treacherous. She has a tynged that protects her from all forms of death- except one.

Gwrach-y-Rhibyn
Another daughter of King Hafgan and Queen Gorwenn, she was once beautiful. She seduced a young Diangeuaw and ended up sharing in his curse when he accidentally made her into his first blood progeny. She moved in and out of the otherworld, hunting victims and continuing to develop her magic and became exceptionally old in appearance by the time she was taunted by Indrus' brothers and killed them and made him into her progeny, immediately abandoning him. She roves through southern wales, sometimes keeping company with Melyn-Goch but avoiding most other blood drinkers. She prefers the otherworld to the human lands and feeding from the fey. Her powers of mesmerism and glamour make her dangerous to even the fey kings and queens. Whereas Gordu has settled on one island but Gwrach-y-Rhibyn freely wanders throughout southern Wales.

Gwragged Annwn, the Lake Maidens
A race of fairies much like the Asrai in some ways. They like to live near freely flowing water, especially lakes. However, they are not hurt by the sun. Beautiful and desireable, they like to cavort with male fey and humans but are rarely malicious or harmful unless threatened. Many Lake Maidens are healers or seers and will happily use their powers to help anyone who approaches them and asks for help. Once a fey or human abuses a lake maiden, however, they will cast a minor tynged that other Lake Maidens will recognize. The rest of them will either hide from or attempt to drown someone with the curse mark.

Jili Ffrwtan
The Jili are short, buxom fey with amorous and indulgent appetites. They love to revel and are friendly towards humans and fey of any sort, but have short attention spans and often lie or forget promises and pledges. Jili can give birth to jili girls, faun boys, or fey-blooded human children- all of which they often abandon as crimbils.
