Headcanon while Iโm at it:
Titania more or less โsleepsโ while waiting inside the amulet between masters, so she seldom sleeps while under contract. Partly because she doesnโt feel the need to, but mostly because she doesnโt feel safe enough to. If she happens to allow herself to sleep in your presence, consider it one of the highest forms of her trust.

โ Titania was once a follower of Aaravos. She, too, believed humans could and should learn magic. However, she never anticipated that it would be dark magic that they gained, and never practiced it for herself.
โ Mostly unknown, those that knew her referred to her as โThe Evenstarโ or โThe Evening Star,โ Aaravosโs younger and lesser skilled counterpart. Fully content to let the archmage take the limelight, Titania herself was ignored by history.
โ A short while before the revolt that lead to Aaravosโs imprisonment, a human, becoming adept in the ways of dark magic, turned on Titania. Hungry for power, he used dark magic to seal her into a magical relic, an amulet, turning her into a tool to be used over and over.
โ While described as a โgenie in a bottle,โ Titania is not an actual genie, and cannot grant wishes. The term only describes her relationship to the amulet. Her physical form and abilities are the same as any other elf.
โ Titania is both mortal and immortal. Her soul itself is bound to the amulet, trapped within. When called out, it is only her body and mind that are freed. Titania can and does experience pain and death.
โ When Titania does die, her active contract is nullified and the amulet becomes inactive, unusable for as long as it takes for her body to decompose beyond recognition. Depending on the circumstances of her death, this may take months. The quickest solution is to cremate her body, reducing the amuletโs โcooldownโ to as little as a day or two. When the amulet is inactive, the ruby within it will lose all colour. While her body does not retain the marks and scars of her deaths, she remembers all of them clearly.
โ The only arcanum other than that of the stars she has connected to is that of the moon, and her skills with such are limited. Her focus is mainly on illusion magic, changing her form in whatever ways necessary to carry out her contracts.
โ She is called from the amulet by reading the short passage engraved on the back, โI command thee.โ For elves and other magical races, this can be simply read forwards. For humans, it must be read backwards, becoming essentially its own spell of dark magic, which can take a toll depending on the user.
โ Once called out, Titania has โone cycle of the sunโ or 24 hours to forge a contract with her master. Failing this, she will be forced back into the amulet and the process must begin again. Once a contract is formed, it will last for as long as it takes to be completed, unless it is nullified.
โ A contract can only be nullified under the following circumstances; Titania dies - her master dies - the person or object she is sent to retrieve or protect is killed or destroyed - a target she is sent to eliminate is killed by someone else first.
โ Titania may have contracts with several people at once, but each person may only form a contract with her once, unless it is nullified. A forged contract cannot be changed. Should a master change their mind, they may โresetโ the contract by killing Titania - but she will not do this willingly, and she will resent anyone that forces such a situation upon her, save for very specific situations.
โ After everything that has happened, and the way she has been treated by some during her time in the amulet, Titania dislikes humans, despises dark magic, and feels Aaravos is to blame for her struggles. Should she ever meet him, he should not expect a warm reception immediately.
โ The amulet does hold other secrets, and a skilled mage, dark or otherwise, might just be able to discover them.
May be edited at any time. All headcanons in this post are tentative and any RP partners with issues with one or more headcanons should discuss it with me - I do have alternatives and workarounds. Titania is not related to Aaravos, nor does she canonly have any relationship with him other than comrades. This can however be altered for plots, as can her opinion of him.
