Greetings scribes. I return!

A player character in my portal-hopping game has been attempting to Contact Other Plane to meet an archfey- any archfey- that will accept their contact and admit power for a certain fey ritual. This has failed repeatedly for both the standard saving throw versus insanity that the spell forces- but also it has failed due to the mage using an erratic magic item to allow them the ability to cast the Contact Other Plane spell in the first place. This went on for days in-game (spanning adventures across the material planes, the outlands, and the hells) which gave the impression that NONE of the Archfey are taking calls from this mage.

Then, one picks up the phone. I improvised and said this Entity sounded as if they were under the effect of Imprisonment. The idea being that this is an Entity that cannot normally be contacted by magic and the Mage had stumbled upon an intentionally forgotten immortal creature by blind force.

I am creating a murky, inky-dark male Archfey that is despised by all courts- a dangerous Half-LeShay sealed via Minimus Containment and left on a pedestal in some fey realm. Their parents would be a LeShay and the Queen of Air and Darkness. I'm not sure if it makes more sense to have the child be created before or after the fall of the Queen. What comes to your minds, Sages, if I suggest you conceive of a child of Rose and Diamond?

[Alternative Path]
Ghaunadaur is included in the Dark Seladrine in this classic art piece. I do not treat the Elder Eye as a mere sylvan lord, but if he posed as one for a time he may have had a child. Any LeShay who courted him must have been absolutely mad..
