Fairies

**Fairies** are magical beings that reside in a realm parallel to the mortal realm, known as the Magical Realms or the *Enchanted Kingdom*. The realms are separated by a thin veil, that can be crossed through portals in the*'in between places'*or*'Tween places',* such as doorways and shadows. The Fairies have a royal family and rule over the kingdom. Their natural enemies are trolls, who seek to take the kingdom for themselves.

Fairies are good beings in nature, as they are kind-hearted to children, whom they often befriend. However, they are also quite mischievous and like to tease adults by stealing and hiding their belongings. All children can see fairies until a certain age, when they lose their innocence.

Fairies create a magical dust known as *fairy dust*, through which they, and others in control of the dust, can achieve various magical things. Fairy wings are used as ingredients for certain potions, and were stockpiled by the Montana family during their feud with the Callaways.

## History

When a group of trolls tried to take over the Magical Realm, they kidnapped the fairy princess Thistle to force the fairy King into surrendering his Kingdom. However, Thistle was found and saved by a young girl named Kate, who kept her safe and became her friend. Kate was found by Phoebe, who took her to the manor. While the sisters were first hesitant to believe Kate, they eventually found out, through old drawings, that they could see fairies when they were younger and befriended a fairy named Lily.

In order to see Thistle, Prue and Phoebe were hit with fairy dust, which reverted them to a childlike state. However, the Trolls eventually kidnapped Thistle and Kate and tried to burn them. The Charmed Ones then cast a spell that would allow them to see the fairies again, since the dust had worked out, and saved Kate and the princess. Thistle was then returned to her Kingdom.

### Other Fairies

A Fairy Queen was captured by Skreek and then killed by the Necromancer, who took her life force to sustain himself.[1] Another one appeared alongside the rest of the magical community to seek protection when the Titans broke free from imprisonment. She used fairy dust to help free Paige, who had been turned to stone.

A fairy was among the magical beings seeking to pull Excalibur from its stone.Another fairy was cursed into an old woman by the Wicked Witch and asked Paige for help. She later helped the sisters find the lair of the Spider Demon.

Fairies were one of the many beings to help the Charmed Ones fight Zankou after he invaded the manor.[5]

When Paige was preparing to tell Henry that she was a witch, she summoned a fairy to ask her to return Henry's lost keys. Some time later, a fairy asked Piper for help when demons attacked, but she was under the effects of Grams's Ring and brushed him off. When the fairy was vanquished, Piper came to her senses.
