@GoshGollyWow Just realized that even though Nightcrawler and Meggan evoke fairy elements, technically Brian is the fairy in "Excalibur." The Welsh/Brythonic term for Fairyland is Annwn, "The Otherworld." Brian's father is from Otherworld, so Brian is half-fairy.
The colours of the Welsh fairyland, Annwn, are white and gold. As a result, fairies generally have pale skin, blond hair, and pale yellow eyes. Someone born in Wales with such features was often mistrusted, suspected of being secretly a fairy changeling #SuperstitionSat
Annwn, a "traveling hunter," in her own words. Betraying her affability, she is still veritably a hellhound; during her stay in any town, at least one member of its populace will die unnaturally and inexplicably. She will always evade accusations of her involvement with a smile.
@ohheckitsbeck In which Squinch falls down a well & finds Annwn, the Faerie Kingdom. Beep is offscreen going, 'Oops, I'd better save him.' Happy Birthday!!
In Wales Cŵn Annwn, the 'Dogs of Annwm', Lord of the Underworld, hunt the souls of the dead across the sky. According to tradition the howling of these dogs foretold death to anyone who heard them.

Pwyll was whisked to the Welsh Otherworld for killing one of its King's stags. Arawn, King of Annwn, offered Pwyll a deal: live as Arawn for a year and let Arawn live as Pwyll for a year, and he would ignore the stag. So they switched. #WyrdWednesday

In Welsh mythology, Cŵn Annwn were the spectral hounds of Annwn, the otherworld of Welsh myth. They were associated with a form of the Wild Hunt, presided over by either Arawn, king of Annwn, or by Gwyn ap Nudd as the underworld king and king of the fair folk.

Annwn, the mirror of our world, a place where dreamers walk in their slumber. But a place as full of dangers as it is wonders, a place where dreams can kill you...

Y’all, I’m awful. I forgot to post chapter 3 of page 38, in which Lili introduces her neighborhood as Arawn’s Woods, names after King Arawn, first notable king of Annwn, the Faerie Kingdom of Welsh mythology. I am so sorry, y’all...
#TheValeofWales, Chapter 3, Page 36. In which Annwn, the Welsh Faerie Kingdom, is finally name dropped!

Taliesin's Cad Goddeu (Battle of the Trees) describes a fight between Gwydion and the Welsh god of Annwn, Arawn, in which Gwydion brings the trees to life to fight for him. The fight breaks out after Amaethon steals a dog, a lapwing, and a roebuck from Arawn. #FolkloreThursday
Arawn is the King of the Otherworld in Welsh Mythology, encountered in the First Branch of the Mabinogion by the hero Pwyll when both were hunting. Pwyll finds himself in Annwn, the realm of Arawn & meets the Otherworld King’s hounds (white dogs with red ears)
