Rhysand is described as having short blue-black hair, like a raven's feathers and violet eyes with flecks of silver like starlight. He is incredibly handsome and appears to be arrogant, careless, and cold at first. Handsome, mysterious, and dangerous, Rhysand is the High Lord of the Night Court. Enemies due to long-standing bad blood between their families, Rhysand is presented as Tamlin’s foil. Rhysand fully embraces the dark side of his faerie nature. He does not shy away from truly evil acts, like leaving a faerie head in Tamlin’s fountain as an intimidation tactic. Once you are a friend, he will do anything for you.
