[Note: Aileana is not meant to be an accurate representation of the mythology/folklore she is based on.]
Despite being an Unseelie fae that feeds on human blood, Aileana isn't particularly malevolent. For the most part, she just wants to have fun. She is very mischievous, though, and loves to play pranks and enjoys tricking others. She can also be crude and a little callous, with a tendency to come off as rude. This is partly because she's spent much of her life alone and doesn't always know what's considered rude, but mostly she just doesn't really care. It's important to note that, as a fae, Aileana doesn't necessarily have the same values as humans. She's impatient and stubborn but doesn't get upset easily--however when she is upset, being around her is dangerous.
Aileana doesn't seem to really care much about others, but she does care a great deal about the forest and animals, and she has a soft spot for babies and children. Anyone who shares a similar care for those things can earn her respect, even if they're human.

Glamour
Like most fae, Aileana possess the ability to use a power known as glamour. Aileana’s glamour works mainly on humans (other species may be able to feel it, but it won’t affect them much). Its main function is to help her hunt, and to do that, she has to blend in with humans. So her glamour basically keeps people from noticing her less-human characteristics. It can be broken if her true nature is exposed–typically if they see her goat legs (which can’t be hidden by her glamour, so she covers them by wearing long skirts) or witness her transforming.
Aileana’s glamour is especially strong on people who are attracted to women/female-presenting people, and has the extra effect of making her incredibly alluring and nearly impossible to resist, as well as affecting the target’s judgement (note that this will typically only apply when she’s hunting). Anyone else is less likely to be affected the same way. They will still be fooled into thinking Aileana is human, but she won’t be as strongly alluring to them.
Aileana can increase or decrease her glamour at will. She usually will keep it low when she’s not hunting, using it only to blend in with humans and nothing more, and will increase it when attempting to lure in prey. She can also put her glamour into her voice to attract anyone who hears it, especially effective while singing.
Background
Aileana was "born" from a forest in Scotland. The forest itself is her "parent," and she has no actual mother or father. However, while Aileana lives alone in her forest, she is never truly alone. She considers the animals that live there her friends, particularly the herd of Scottish red deer that she watches over.
