"And we fairies, that do run
By the triple Hecate’s team
From the presence of the sun,
Following darkness like a dream,
Now are frolic. Not a mouse
Shall disturb this hallowed house."
William Shakespeare

Titania, Queen of the Fairies
Protector of the Forest, Her color is Green
Member since 2002

Titania was not always a fairy, and she was not always known as Titania. She was born as a human called Hera (named after the queen of the gods). When Hera was a child, she lived with her grandmother in a small cottage in the forest. Her grandmother always warned her against the fairies of the forest, but a dancing colorful light of Diana, Queen of the Fairies, soon lured her. The queen grew fond of Hera and they would meet every night to dance in the moonlight. Diana finally decided to take Hera into her realm and turned her into the Green fairy because of her name (Hera was the Queen of the Gods and she ruled earth, therefore she was "mother earth"). She renamed the child to Titania, to start her new life as an immortal.

Time went by and Diana and Titania became close and ruled the kingdom together, until one day Kind Obrey returned from war. He also became very fond of Titania, and wanted to take her as his new bride. Diana was becoming old and could not birth any sons to continue his line. However, he needed to get rid of Diana first, so he turned her into a Fern Tree. Titania knew what had happened, but was forced to marry the King Obrey but vowed to seek revenge on her companion, Diana.

Time passed and Titania became very lonely and bored with Obrey, and there were no new plans for the dethroning of Obrey. He had been off to his brother's Kingdom arguing over the position of his nephew, Oberon. Obrey needed to find a successor before he was to pass on the kingdom. Titania would go with his elderly King to visit his brother's kingdom and she became dear friends with Oberon. They would write to each other every day, and decided that it was time for Obrey to end his career as King. They grew supporters from both of their kingdoms and 100 years later, Obrey's crown as taken by Oberon.

Because Titania was born a human, she would go back and disguise herself to visit her home. There, she met a human named Tamlin and they became friends. Titania enjoyed her visits because she was able to experience the human world in which she left as a very young child. Tamlin and her feel in love, but when he asked her to run away with him, she decided not to because she loved her king Oberon and also her subjects. However, she was pregnant of Tamlin and even though she loved him dearly, she had to end their romance, and never return to the village. She had the half human, half fairy and had her counselor take him away.

Titania chose to forget about her son and continued on to rule as a great Queen. Years later she heard a rumor that her son was alive but in trouble. Titania went around to different elders and asked if they knew of anyone that could help her locate the child, now, adult. Finally, she heard of a fairy named Thimble that knew how to track down children. Titania was able to track Thimble down, and asked her to help her find her missing son. Thimble agreed to help Titania, with the understanding that she would work with her, for the rest of her reign. Titania agreed and made Thimble her Chief Advisor.

Years later, she discovered that her son, Tim Hunter, was alive and but was taken by a group that painted their skin with black and white stripes. Titania quickly returned to her small Village to find that Tamlin had become very weak from the heart she had broken. She told him of the news, and he went to save their son, but died in the battle. Tim is still captured and Titania has made yet another vow to save the one she loves.
