Sugar Fairies

Sugar Fairies are winged pseudo-marsupial humanoids who are native to the land of Bloomeria, more specifically, the zone of The Sugar Steeps.

Sugar Fairies are a species of Fairies. Like other Fairies, Sugar Fairies are of minuscule size, roughly 5.3 to 6.3 inches tall.

## **Description**

Sugar fairies are born with the gift to extract sweetness out of anything.

Sugar fairies have cheek markings that can range from circles to swirls.

## **Wings**

Sugar fairies have dual layers of incredible intricate chiffon like white wings that glitter like sweets and sugar drops. The outer protective layer of the wings is usually translucent and is only one piece for either side. The inner wings are opaque and usually have four sections, like many fairies.

## Reproduction

Sugar fairies copulate much the same as any other fairy. A functionally female fae and a functionally male fae copulate, resulting in the fertilisation of an egg within the female. This egg will develop and gestate till it has been about a month, at which point this is where sugar fairies differ from most other fae.

Similar to Wild Fairies in part, the growing baby must be birthed and find its way to a pouch to continue development, mostly assisted by the parent giving birth. However, where sugar fairies differ from wild fairies is the baby does not go into a pouch of the initial birther, but rather the male involved in the reproduction.

When a functionally male sugar fairy impregnates a functionally female sugar fairy, the female will produce a type of scent signal to the male, which will activate the male's paternal instincts, and they will stick around by the carrier of the foetus till term, at which point the male begins carrying the baby in a pouch, and no longer feels the paternal instinct to stick around the female.

An adult male and adult female sugar fairy both possess mammary glands and are both able to supply milk to their young, outside of a pouch, once the baby has grown enough to be out. (Time that takes pending. Vague description of what's goin on in that POUCH).

Through the duration of the males' pouch pregnancy the female will have her body preparing slowly for when the child is ready to get out of the pouch. When the baby is ready to be out of it (getting good with words), the female will be ready to supply milk, as will the male.

It is said Sugar Fairies are intended by nature to be the best at co-parenting. But some speculate that the nature of the fae both being able to supply milk that nature has prepared them to be the perfect single parents.

## Behaviour

Sugar Fairies function as everyone in Bloomeria, under a matriarchal society. However, sugar fairies differ in severity.

Through Bloomeria there have been many small-scale men's rights movements, but most are perpetuated by some of the men, and even the women of The Sugar Steep.

## History

The race of sugar fairies was a race born in war; specifically, The Cumulo Civil War (AKA, The Birth War), of 84H.R-184H.R. They were created, it is speculated, in the year 101H.R, as the result of a spell that was meant to attack and kill a collective of Wild Fairies, went wrong, and instead filled an entire section of land (The Sugar Steeps, then known as The Offcut Republic) with properties of sweetness; a spell which also seeped into the people.
