HISTORY

A cunning creature from the otherwordly realm of Faerie, Amadan was the servant and court jester of Faerie's Queen Titania. Much like his own compatriot Puck, Amadan was neither good nor evil. He was only loyal to himself, and played vicious games of manipulation just for the sheer pleasure of it. It was Amadan who befriended Titania when she was still a human girl named Maryrose, and arranged for her to be a queen just so he could gain power himself. Since then, Amadan stayed by his queen's side, being loyal to her because it gained him. His influence on her was enormous.

When Amadan was on the run from an angry mob for having lured Molly O'Reilly to the Farie realm, the Faerie known as Yarrow offering him a means of escaping the mob by having him turn into stone. Once Amadan had turned himself into stone Yarrow tricked him by beheading him herself.
