Queen Mab is a fantastic idea.

(obviously different hair)
Here's a cosplay avatar I'd been working once as Queen Mab from the Merlin movie!

YES~
The focus is on Fairy Revelation~

Each fairy represent different kind of... element? meaning? power? prize? wish?
with clues of course.
ooo... now that sounds like fairy hunt. XD

... I don't like... the sounding of... Mab.
Sounds like Nab. DX

Quote:
MERCUTIO: O, then I see Queen Mab hath been with you.
She is the fairies' midwife, and she comes
In shape no bigger than an agate stone
On the forefinger of an alderman,
Drawn with a team of little atomies
Over men's noses as they lie asleep;
Her wagon spokes made of long spinners' legs,
The cover, of the wings of grasshoppers;
Her traces, of the smallest spider web;
Her collars, of the moonshine's wat'ry beams;
Her whip, of cricket's bone; the lash, of film;
Her wagoner, a small grey-coated gnat,
Not half so big as a round little worm
Pricked from the lazy finger of a maid;
Her chariot is an empty hazelnut,
Made by the joiner squirrel or old grub,
Time out o' mind the fairies' coachmakers.
And in this state she gallops night by night
Through lovers' brains, and then they dream of love;
O'er courtiers' knees, that dream on curtsies straight;
O'er lawyers' fingers, who straight dream on fees;
O'er ladies' lips, who straight on kisses dream,
Which oft the angry Mab with blisters plagues,
Because their breaths with sweetmeats tainted are.
Sometimes she gallops o'er a courtier's nose,
And then dreams he of smelling out a suit;
And sometimes comes she with a tithe-pig's tail
Tickling a parson's nose as 'a lies asleep,
Then dreams he of another benefice.
Sometimes she driveth o'er a soldier's neck,
And then dreams he of cutting foreign throats,
Of breaches, ambuscadoes, Spanish blades,
Of healths five fathom deep; and then anon
Drums in his ear, at which he starts and wakes,
And being thus frighted, swears a prayer or two
And sleeps again. This is that very Mab
That plats the manes of horses in the night
And bakes the elflocks in foul sluttish hairs,
Which once untangled much misfortune bodes.
This is the hag, when maids lie on their backs,
That presses them and learns them first to bear,
Making them women of good carriage.
This is she!

Well you guys have some time to send me your name suggestions and I'll let you know when voting will begin.

Also does anyone have a name suggestion for our grand ball?

Oh and I started to work on a little back story. I will share what I have with all of you a little later this evening.

Hehehe, glad to see that some people like the name of my faerie OC.
I really like the name Viatrix myself, but I'm kind of bias.

It doesn't have to have a name, but I thought that it might be a nice touch if we do decide to add a storyline to the event.

Actually I think you did mab and I did lady of the lake, but we both had made outfits of each when collecting ideas on how to dress them. :]


A name for the ball might be good even without a storyline. All those fancy people are getting dressed to go to what? They probably would not be saying the grand Faeries reveal masquerade ball. .. needs something simple like the venitian ball I went to once. Simple and sounds fancy.
