Fíodóirúin, is the Fae goddess associated with secrets, spiders, and deception, who has been seen to have established themselves as the matriarch of the Autumn Court, while serving as regent for their younger brother, the Autumn Prince. Fíodóirúin is therefore seen as the patron deity of the Fhómhairnacha, and as a major deity and leader within the wider Elven Culture and Faerie Pantheon. Within wider mortal society, Fíodóirúin's position as lady of secrets has placed her as a respected deity within Roguesfolk and drawn comparisons with the Ancestor Laer, her association with spiders has left mortals weary to endanger or kill the arachnids, especially within more Faerie oriented societies.
Origin and Early History
Most have concluded that Fíodóirúin is the daughter of the former Autumn King, Féasóghear and brother of the young Prince Láibhar. For many centuries Fíodóirúin was thought to be the heir-apparent within the Autumn Court on the basis of her age, however when Féasóghear was slain during the Second War of the Courts his will instead placed the younger and infantile Láibhar on the throne. Fíodóirúin deeply resented this and attempted to assert herself as sole regent; making use of her talents in espionage and deceit, Fíodóirúin constructed a web of puppet-lords within the Autumn Court, most notably Básamhain the Harvester and Bándiagóir the Speaker. Once the loyalty of the Council of Autumn had been secured, Fíodóirúin pounced and had herself named sole Regent of Autumn, where she became the absolute de-facto leader of the Autumn Court, in the name of her helpless brother.
