The icy fey are bound by no leader, though there are several who have great power in their realm. The Prince of Frost is by far the most powerful and vicious of the winter archfey. His court, when he bothers to convene, is known as the Winter Court and is filled with his allies of the long night and cold, dark ice.
The Winter Court is associated with wintertime and midnight. It symbolizes death, the end of journeys, and the clearing of the old to allow new life.
The Winter Court is ruled by the Prince of Frost. The Winter Court's hierarchy is comprised of any Fey creature with Fey blood.
The Court of Winter chills the blanketed by thick blinding white snow, rugged mountains and leafless skeletal trees. Freezing winds howl over the landscape of the Winter Court.
The Winter Court is under the cold grasp of the arrogant and brooding Sisters of Lament. Their pale skin and frosty white hair give off the aura that they are ghosts walking through the snow. Their Eladrin features are cold and their gaze freezes the warmest heart with just a look. Their dull gray gown flows behind them smoothly and their head is adorned with a jagged crown made of ice. They were once members of the Court of Summer along with the Prince of Frost until their sister fell in love with a mortal and thus changing them all forever. Their names since changing courts are Mourwind and Soulsorrow. They despise mortals as a mortal is the cause of their current state.
The Ice Lords and Ladies of the court are cold and prickly. Just like the court of summer, the Court of Winter has many members all cold and calculating. Very few of the Courtiers seem friendly enough to interact with. Majority of the members take on the appearance of pale Eladrin, Boggles, and Elves.
The Main Court, Fortress of Frozen Tears is built upon a snow-covered mountain and is made completely from Ice. Warm furs are used for decoration only slightly livening up the court. Stiff chairs made of Ice are covered with dark velvet cushions for comfort. Even with the small decorations, the court seems hollow.
The Prince of Frost was once a member of the Winter Court, after his death and resurrection, he became free of the Feywild allowing him to pursue other desires. Koliada, the Winter Witch is another famous member of the Court of Winter. She desires to spread her influence all across the Feywild and for this reason, makes rash deals with many creatures, deals that mostly cause her to lose more than she gains.
Felsa, The Slumbering Queen is also one of the Winter Courtiers. There are many tales of her tricking children into calling her through a song allowing her to manifest where the song is sung and put the adults into a deep slumber while the children play with her. While the adults sleep their life-essence is drained by Felsa, once she has had her fill she moves to the next place.
