Fairies

**The Fairies**, **Fae**, **Fair Folk**, or **Faeries**. In the tales of fairies, at least according to the other tribes, they are more often than not mischievous creatures with dark and evil intentions, however that doesn't appear to be necessarily the case.

## Physical Appearance

All fairies are mostly human in appearance with some being composed of pure energy or resembling animals or elves. Fairies range widely in color and they can have hair colors a human would not have. Some fairies can fly with their own hair, and their wings are endless in colors and shapes, however it tends to show off what type of fairy they are.

## Magical Abilities

Each fairy has a specific power. The magic of every fairy is fueled by their positive feelings such as happiness, love, etc. Fairies are able to fly. All fairies know some basic, first level spells such as telekinesis, transmuting objects, and fixing minor messes.

Fairies can form a magical bond with Pixies, Selkies, and Fairy Animals.

## Weaknesses

Fairies are vulnerable to iron and silver. If someone pours salt or sugar in front of them, they have to stop to count each grain one by one. They also love cream, which, like alcohol, intoxicates them.

## Types of Fairies

* **Dark Fairies**: A Dark Fairy is either a fairy who has turned to the side of evil, or whose powers become fueled by darkness. A Dark Fairy may be a fairy who was corrupted by their negative emotions and uses evil magic rather than good magic fueled by light, or someone who was turned into a Dark Fairy through dark magic. Normal fairies who do bad things are not necessarily Dark Fairies.
* **Earth Fairies**:
	+ **Rustic Fairies**: The Rustic Fairies have the upper bodies of humans but have goats' legs with large hooves and have fur on their bodies instead of clothes. Their faces are flat with horse or goat-like nostrils and pointed ears, and do not seem to have any eyebrows. Their hair is shaped like horns. The wings of the Rustic Fairies are transparent, with borders of dark colors and spots of other colors. The Rustic Fairies have much physical strength and they can use their hooves to break rocks and cause avalanches. They are also able to heal. As fairies they may know first-level spells all fairies can learn such as, telekinesis, transmuting objects, and fixing minor messes.
	+ **Arctic Fairies**: Arctic Fairies have pale skin. Their lipstick color is either blue or green and their clothes are dark blue with fur. Their wings are reminiscent of icicles and they also have a green glow around their wings which presumably protects them from the cold. Arctic Fairies have the ability of ice magic in ways that they can project ice beams, blasts and shards, or summon walls made of ice. Like all fairies they can fly. Their magic is icy blue in color.
	+ **Royal Guard Fairies**: The Royal Guard Fairies are the Earth Fairies that guard and protect the castle of Tir Na Nog and its Queen. They also use poll like scepters as weapons. The Royal Guard Fairies have displayed the ability to fly. They also may know first-level spells all Fairies can use, such as telekinesis, transmuting objects, and fixing minor messes.

## Trivia

* Fairies originate in European folklore, especially from Celtic mythology, Germanic mythology and Slavic mythologies and from English folklore and French folklore, where they appear as human-like supernatural spirits or beings. In older legends about fairies, they were powerful beings who humans had to appease or seek protection from, and the modern depiction of fairies as cheerful beings with wings started only in the Victorian Era of British history.
