Have you ever heard of the Lenan Sidhe? I admit I hadn't until I did some research. This Fae is said to be a cross between a muse and a vampire! Quite the combination.
Often depicted as a beautiful woman, she finds a human lover and inspires them to create poetry, song, or prose. But she has an insatiable hunger and gradually drains the life of the person, taking his life force. Also known as the Fairy Mistress, she often helps her lover find success, before their untimely demise. It makes you think of all those famous writers who died young after brief fame... There are so many story ideas that could be written about this type of Fae. Is she malevolent? Or does she drain them by accident? Would someone willingly agree if it meant finally finding fame? This Fae has also been shown to be a man too, so it can work for all types of relationships. Happy writing!
