Preferably CN, this being will be the antagonist for a war against the main LE society of my campaign - the 'home city' of the party.
The antagonist society - which this being has become a huge influence to - is mixed with humans and elves making the bulk of the citizens. I'll be taking the antagonist to CR 15-17, most likely, with a handful of CR 7-9 guards. This fey has recently come into power there.
The first aggressive act was taken by a privateer vessel, taking a magically enhanced merchant ship heavily laden with valuable cargo (owned by a merchant prince of the LE city). The campaign is set in a huge chain of islands. The antagonist fey was behind this capturing.
Ideas for the fey, and/or the guards?

For the Fey I suggest the wild hunt Archer/scout from bestiary 6 they are CN whit a cr of 13/15
As for the guards I have a question are the need to be fey, humans or elf? And are npc class, combat class or combat magic class?
If I use Wild Hunt,I'll definitely have to reflavor them, but thanks for the suggestion. Likely, the 'guards' (perhaps more like underlings) would be other fey, but I'm open to suggestions.

An Atomie with a bunch of character levels.
Mouser swashbuckler 1 / eldritch scion magus (aberrant or black blood) X
Size diminutive, but with bloodline powers and the Longarm spell gets a 10' reach, can flank enemies whose square he's in, can move through and stop in enemies squares if they're size small or larger.
There's probably things that would make it even more effective, but that's a start towards a memorable and annoyingly effective enemy.

While I appreciate the input,this character isn't meant to be an "encounter" as much as they are a presence in the background. As the party tends more chaotic, and the campaign is a sandbox, they could end up working for the character against their home city.
At any rate, the CR means they would be a long time from being able to be a reasonable challenge.

Fair enough, but I still think that taking a low CR fey creature and piling class levels onto it might be a good choice for your "bad guy"
Seconding VoodistMonk on the Erlking

Also consider the Tunche
https://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/monster-listings/fey/tunche/
Both CN Fey, Tunche CR 17, Erlking CR 18
If you're willing to go off CN or to alter an alignment, the Hamadryad is CG Fey CR 15.
