Fairy

**Fairies** are small insect-like beings with the ability to use magic, fly and grant wishes. They are often seen as benevolent protectors of nature and mortals.

## Description

### Appearance

Fairies are known for being very small compared to humans, each being similar in size to a small bird. They generally have a humanoid form, with the exception of their wings and feet which resemble those of a bird, their antennae, which have an insect-like look to them, and can come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, their ears which are pointed thus having an elf-like look to them, and their eyes which are often described as being very large and expressive.

### Characteristics

They are most well-known in both the mundane and supernatural worlds for their characterization as cunning and cruel sense of humor, as well as their delight in tricking others. They frequently characterized as seeking to bargain with mortal beings, offering someone their heart's desire but never mention that said desire comes with a terrible cost. They are committed to notions of honor and etiquette. While they are always exactly to the letter of any promise they have made, they deliver these results with great irony and often use clever wordplay to their advantage in order to create loopholes for them to exploit.

They are unable to lie. They might, however, tell what they believe is true, even if it is not. They may expertly weave lies into sentences by using methods such as not telling the whole truth, letting others assume things, or not correcting the people with whom they're speaking; this does not, however, apply to the half-fairies who possess the ability to lie as easily as any other being. Fairies are also capable of manipulating one another. There have apparently been times when these either playful or serious manipulations, specifically resulting from problems or conflicts between powerful fey, bleed into the world.

## Powers & Abilities

* **Magic** - Fairies are incredibly powerful magical beings, being apparently "all about energy."
* **Spell Casting** - Leprechauns have been shown to make deals, like crossroads demons, to cast spells.
* **Dimensional Creation** - It appears as though Faeries are capable of creating alternate "pocket" dimensions, as seen by the plane of Faerie and the extra-dimensional nature of Hot Wings. It can be assumed that only particularly powerful fae or a number of them working in concert can create another dimension.
* **Dimensional Transportation** - Faeries can transport themselves and others to other dimensional planes. Mortals and fairies of lesser power require fixed portals to do so, but more powerful fairies may cross dimensions at will. Powerful fairies can banish people to other dimensions against their will, though less powerful faeries appear to require consent.
* **Shapeshifting** - Fairies can disguise themselves as beautiful humans. They can disguise themselves as beautiful and attractive humanoids. Though they have a certain degree of control over this ability, by default they attune themselves to whatever the ideal of beauty is on the frequency of the dominant species of a particular dimension (that is, they appear as classically attractive humans while on earth). They can also change shape from being human-sized to being as tiny as a tennis ball which glows of bright light, or more like larger fireflies. A fairy's true form can be a variety of things. They can be beautiful flower faries to dryads who are the souls of trees.
* **Invisibility** - They can only be seen if they want to be or by people who have traveled to their realm and returned. This ability continues to work, even after the fairy in question's death, meaning humans who haven't been to the fairy realm can't see their remains.
* **Telekinesis** - Some fairies, such as leprechauns, can move objects with their minds.
* **Healing** - Fairies have the ability to cure broken or withered plants; wounds, broken bones, low vitality, and even diseases and restore the emotions and spirits of others.
* **Photokinesis** - Fairies have the ability to project and control light and nature. Fairies and witches are the only species shown to possess this power. A Fae with this ability can channel nature through their body and project it in a concentrated and powerful blast of light which seems to manifest as kinetic force, conclusively throwing or repelling objects a considerable distance. Most fairies use this ability to attack an enemy. They can even turn the energy into an explosive ball that they can throw at their enemies, somewhat like a grenade. The light varies in color, from blue to golden, usually depending on the time of day; blue seems to be more common at night whereas gold appears in daylight. The ability has been described as "nature itself". Photokinesis is the central feature of the magic of some species of fairies and can be used for a variety of purposes beyond offensive explosions. Fairies can use their light abilities to sense things about other fairies and apparently render beings unconscious and bring a person back to consciousness.
* **Chlorokinesis** - Fairies can manipulate vegetation. Fairies can grow plants to enormous proportions in nearly any environment, and use them as weapons that can grab and attack with vines and roots, grow or retract thorns.
* **Psychometry** - Fairies can tap into the power of the past by connecting with the energy that exists in the universe. Through a connection to an object they can then enter the minds of those who were present in these areas.
* **Telepathy** - Fairies have the ability to read each others' minds and can read other peoples' minds as well. Faeries are able to read the thoughts of any sentient creature that gives off brain waves (which means it excludes vampires). They can receive images or sentences, depending on the person. If they concentrate, they can "turn off" this ability. If they focus hard enough, they can "enter" another person's mind and "reset" memories that have been tampered with, such as through mind control.
* **Glamour** - Able to cast vivid and convincing illusions in order to trick others, as demonstrated with the illusion on the fae world, making it appear more appealing and beautiful. This ability is very similar to their shapeshifting ability if not the same.
* **Magic Reversal** - It has also been shown that powerful fairies can break and reverse some weak magic spells cast by others.
* **Oneirokinesis** - They are shown to be able to enter peoples dreams and converse with that person when fairies both entered their slumber. For a vampire, drinking large amounts of fairy blood might trigger oneirokinesis. Fairy hybrids seem to receive dreams while they are in a coma.
* **Immortality** - Fairies are immortal beings.
* **Sacred Oath** - When Faeries make an oath or promise the fairy and other person must touch fingers and a photokinetic light will come through the promiser's arm. If the oath is broken, great dishonor is brought upon the faerie and their clan and is thus considered an act of war. Faeries also make pacts signing the contract with their blood. This is called "blood on vellum." This is said to be the most sacred of contracts.
* **Teleportation** - Some fairies can teleport from any location to another in the blink of an eye. Good fairies can take people with them. It is not known whether or not that they teleport to a different dimension for a short period of time and teleports back to the location that he desires.
* **Translation** - Some Fae possess the ability to decode and translate elaborate ciphers in an ancient form of fae script. This may be a photokinetic technique rather than a separate ability, as Fae refers to it as a "lost art".

### Weaknesses

As with many other supernatural creatures, fairies have weaknesses that can be used to defeat them. However, none of these methods were proven to be able to completely kill them; the only way to stop them is banishing them to their realm through a spell. However the above isn't completely true: if a fairy is exposed to a very strong electromagnetic field for enough time they will lose control of themselves and explode, as Dean was able to kill one by trapping the fairy into a microwave oven, however as the fairy in question was very weak, its unknown what affect it would have on a more powerful fairy.

* **Lemons and Limes** - Lemons and limes are poisonous to fairies.
* **Silver** - This can be used against dark fairies--as they burn when they are touched with silver. It can cause dark fairies pain and can kill them
* **Grained Substances** - If someone pours any substance that has a lot of grains in front of them, they have to stop to count each grain one by one. They remain fully aware while doing so, and are very reluctant about that weakness.
* **Iron** - The slightest contact could burn her skin, and prolonged exposure could weaken her dramatically.
* **Cream** - They also love cream, which, like alcohol, intoxicates them.
* **Magic** - Fairies are susceptible to the powers of magic. Fairies can be summoned, bound and banished by magic, once banished they are unable to return unless summoned again.
* **Radiation** - If a fairy is exposed to microwave radiation for a sufficient amount of time, they will explode.
* **Poisonious Bugs** - Fairies are seen to be very close with nature but if something as small as a bug comes in their way and attacks them, they could face a serious illness and die.
* **Fire** - Setting a changeling on fire will cause its body to rapidly burn to ashes.
