A Brief Primer on the Formorians
(first off the Fomori from werewolf and the Fomorians are
two completly different things. Werewolf came out first and called dibs on the name.There is no
canon relationship tohugh.)
STORY TIME
back when man first lived in nomadic tribes in caves and
around camp fires they began to tell stories to one another
and mankind's dreams finally began to take shape. They we
primitive people concerned about survival, food, sex, and
other basic primal urges. From this primal collective
unconcious the Formorians were first given form. They were
massive creatures of pure dream power, all storm and fury
with the power of the elements at their command. First came
the Green Court which is believed to have been created
perhaps before man was even man as we know him. Some say
that it is not the dream of man at all but something older
than that. The dream of life itself, the dream of surviving
and increasing in number at all cost. It is an alien dream
that modern man cannot fathom, it is the deepest darkest
part of our primal natures. Next came the Red Court full of
violence and hatred and bloodlust. The urge to kill is one
of the most basic urges. kill or be killed. Finally came
the White Court. It represents the beginings of
intellectual evil. Killing not for the sake of killing but
for the pleasure of doing it. Torture and deceit. It is the
most human of all the courts.
When man began to create civilization its dream changed.
Man became more evolved and began to learn and strive for
loftier ideals than primal urges. It created concepts like
love and honor and beauty. These dreams formed the Tuatha
de Dannan. As civiliation and enlightnement grew so grew
the power of the Tuatha and everntually there wasnt enough
room in the Dremaing for both the Ancient Formorians and
the Tuatha. Both the Formorians and Tuatha learned to
harness the power of the Dreaming and create on their own
without the aid of man. The created children in their own
image. This is the birth of the Adhene and Kithian.
When it was time for War the adhene and the kithian had to
choose sides. some followed choose to follow their
forebeares and some changed sides so fight agaisnt their
masters. The Terreskonta on the War of Trees (depending on
who you ask) was fought and tore the very fabric of the
dreaming and the mortal world alike apart. In the end the
Tuatha were triumphant and the rest i think you all know.
i hope this has been helpful
