Fairies today are thought of as little or human sized Winged Humanoid with butterfly wings, that fly around in a sea of sparkles, and have magical powers (including granting wishes). This is not the original concept; genuine folkloric fairies are alien, dangerous, powerful, and not always winged. Although these vary depending on the story (hence the trope title). Much like Demons, what classifies as "Fairy" is often as varied as "Mammal" or "Alien". Four standard forms stand out, however: A tiny humanoid, usually with insect wings, between one and twelve inches tall. Variations other than size include skin or hair colors, the type of wings they have, what they wear (if anything), and often whether or not they generate their own light. These are usually called some variation of "fairy", "sprite", or "pixie". A small, often old-looking or childlike, humanoid between one and three feet tall. Leprechauns are the most common type seen, but other types such as brownies, redcaps or spriggans are often common. Gnomes and even goblins may also fall into this category. An inhumanly beautiful/graceful human-sized humanoid, often with pointed ears. Usually an elf in all but name with more overt magical nature or ability than your "standard" fantasy elves. Sometimes they are that work's version of elves. Other common variations are water (often called nereids or undines) or tree/forest fey (usually called nymphs or dryads). Others may have animal features, such as a stag's head, goat legs, or a fox's tail, or plant features like wooden skin or vines wrapping around their body (especially nymphs/dryads). These always seem to be near or at the top of the fairy totem pole. They'll usually be called some variation of "fae" or "sidhe"note pronounced "Shee". Animal-like beings that often verge on Animalistic Abominations, typically with a taste for human flesh or souls, or, barring that, are harbingers of doom or bringers of disease and hardship. More benign ones may be benevolent (or, at the very least, not actively malevolent), but, like most fae, should be approached with great caution and a good deal of knowledge of what you're getting yourself into. They are often also shapeshifters, though this is not a hard-and-fast rule, while others may be Mix-and-Match Critters or have some anthropomorphic traits. Common examples include pucas, water horses, and barghests/black dogs. They also may or may not be exclusively female. Regardless of size, many fairies also have wings, usually iridescent or butterfly-like. Whether or not they have wings, and what kind they have, are often another difference between fairy species'. But these are hardly the full extent of what Fairies can be. Just as Dragons can encompass many related creatures, fairies can include other mythological/fantasy creatures such as satyrs, nymphs, merfolk, and even trolls, ogres and giants. They often hang around with animals (especially Unicorns), which might possibly be Fay (or the equivalent) themselves. A common form is a Fairy Godmother, who gives characters help with wishes. Although modern stories will heavily add Be Careful What You Wish For. Borrowing from British mythology, Fairies are often divided into Courts. The most common are the Seelie or Summer Court, and the Unseelie or Winter Court. Summer fairies are usually depicted are being more benevolent (for a given value of benevolent), and tend to include types like Sprites, nymphs, satyrs and high elves. Winter fairies on the other hand are typically seen as wicked, and include types like redcaps, boggarts, trolls, and dark elves. This isn't always a case of Always Chaotic Evil, however, and it's just as possible for a summer fairy to kidnap a child as a winter fairy is to save you from a blizzard. Some works play it straight, while others see it as lighter and darker shades of Blue and Orange. Fairy Tales often involve fairies, at least they do nowadays, but that term comes from Madame d'Aulnoy's Les Contes de Fées. The original folk tales seldom involved them, and even if they did, it was only in Western European folklore.note The Brothers Grimm expurgated all the Fees in their first edition on the grounds that they were French, not German, folklore. A Super-Trope to: Alien Fair Folk: Either fairies who look like aliens, or aliens mistaken for fairies. The Fair Folk: These kind of fairies may very well not be harmless, and this can range from impulsively acting without consequence to outright wickedness. Fairy Companion: A fairy that hangs around a particular character, most often giving help in various ways. The quality of the help may vary. Fairy Dragons: Diminutive dragons with fairy wings, often directly linked to fairies in some manner. Fairy in a Bottle: For when playing high-stakes roulette by trapping a demon or a genie just won't do.... Fairy Godmother: A fairy patron who grants a limited number of wishes and looks out for a particular character, but doesn't generally stick around to do so. Fairy Devilmother: Pretty much same as the above, but on Evil. So, even if the effects of any wish isn't technically an outright curse, it's still going to be as dangerous as one. Fairy Sexy: Smokin' hot fairies; actual fire optional. Fairy Trickster: This or any of its sister tropes, and The Trickster. Fauns and Satyrs: Wingless, goat-legged fairies notorious for their appetites. House Fey: Brownies, hobgoblins (traditional ones), house elves, Christmas elves... all domestically inclined, usually small, often helpful, always protective and not to be taken lightly. Or insulted. Leprechaun: The most common Irish, as well as male fairy in fiction. Our Gnomes Are Weirder: The largely Forgotten Fair Folk who tend be short, greedy, and weird. Our Nymphs Are Different: While strictly speaking originating in an entirely different mythical tradition, nymphs of various sorts are often classified as fey in fantasy settings. Our Pixies Are Different: Wings, size, glow, abilities, clothes, weapons and meanness may vary. Peeve Goblins: Beings (often but not always fairies) made up to explain life's inconveniences. Griping About Gremlins: Tiny, malicious fairies notorious for disassembling machinery. Spark Fairy: No need for a phone or a flashlight with these dots of light flying about. Beware possible heightened fire risk or dazzling. Will-o'-the-Wisp: Also balls of a usually colder brand of ethereal light. Can be used as guides, if you like. Bad, bad, bad idea, though. Tooth Fairy: Leave a tooth under a pillow as you sleep and gain a coin. And, perhaps, free Nightmare Fuel. The Wild Hunt: While many cultural variations exist, British Isles variants are almost always made up of fairies. See also Our Elves Are Different, for a type of fictional creatures originally closely tied — or synonymous with — fairies but which in modern fiction has become something else entirely. Compare Our Angels Are Different and Our Mermaids Are Different. Not to be confused with a euphemism for gay men. |

Plantasia: Holly, the player character, looks almost exactly like a normal human, albeit with pointed ears and pink hair. She can apparently pull clothes out of nowhere to disguise herself as a human, as seen in the intro of the game, and can make multiple shovels, watering cans, weeding tools, and extermination tools work simultaneously on the field, depending on how many of the tool she has and how many are available for her to use at the time. She can also fly or at least hover, despite having no visible wings. | |

In Ni no Kuni, fairies are odd lumps with varying shapes and sizes (though even the tallest ones are shorter than human children), have a love for comedy, speak in welsh accents, frequently use the word "tidy!" and are a all male with the exception of the Fairy Godmother, who is a mountain-sized face that holds what looks like a kindergarten inside it, where she keeps the egg-shaped baby fairies until they are old enough to fend for themselves, after which she proceeds to fire them from the chimney on her top so they can land on a nearby river. | |

The Three Good Fairies and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty appear alongside Miss Nettle; Tinker Bell (due to sharing continuity with Peter Pan), which may possibly also include the Pixie Hollow fairies; fliegels (such as Grotta), the small, obnoxious and pesty, prankster kind of fairies; fairies from the Mystic Isles (including the Sugar Plum Fairy), where fairies can age and have children, have to earn their wings by winning the Fairy Cup, and seem to have an attribute system similar to the Pixie Hollow fairies' talents, albeit much more broad (such as being Dream Fairies); fairy godmothers like Cinderella's or Ruby's (Tizzy); and Merryweather mentions having wanted to be a tooth fairy in one episode | |

My Little Pony: The G3 and G4 iterations have fairy-like creatures called "Breezies". Basically they're ponies with antennae and insect wings, much like stereotypical fairies. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic also has changelings, who are closer to The Fair Folk. They resemble a cross between winged-insects and partially decomposed corpses of ponies. They have the ability to perfectly mimic a pony's appearance (although their nasty personalities give them away) and can become more powerful as they feed on someone's love. Their favorite tactic is draining the love from others that is intended for the one they captured and copiedwhich is what they did to Princess Cadence before her wedding. |

Les Voyageurs Sans Souci: Ted's idea of fairies is influenced by the tales of his Irish grandmother, who grew up in the Victorian Era. So, when a young girl wearing a strange winged costume flies into his room, Ted believes her to be a fairy, and he assumes she is friendly, well-meaning and English-speaking (since he believes fairies must come from Ireland). | |

Eberron finally nails down what the fey actually are. They have a lot of elemental traits (but that's covered by elementals), they have a lot of nature traits (but that's covered by plants or magical beasts), and even some malific or benevolent traits (covered by fiends or angels). This is because fey are living stories. A treant is a living tree, but a dryad is the idea of a living tree—which is why they are far more humanoid. Many parts of Thelanis (the fey plane) are absurd or completely illogical because they don't actually have to make sense; they are a story, and have no need to exist outside of that specific plot or idea they embody. Of course, problems arise when the fey end up in the mortal realm, where logic and physics are more important than theme and dramatic tension. | |

The Dungeon Keeper series: Fairies appear as heroes (and therefore, usually antagonists to the player) in both games. In both games they are humanoid with dragonfly-type wings and fly, but are of a similar size to human heroes. They are potent spellcasters and fast-moving but rather weak in combat and have few hit points, making them both Glass Cannons and Fragile Speedsters. In both games, they can be converted to the player's side. | |

Harry Potter: Fairies are non-intelligent creatures that, while humanoid, have lifecycles akin to insects, laying eggs and then metamorphosing from larvae. They have weak magic which can be used to ward off predators and are very vain; wizards often use them as decorations the same way that Muggles might catch fireflies in a jar for light. The good press Muggles give them is a matter of some confusion to wizards. | |

John Golden: Fairies can create pocket dimensions in computer networks. This necessitates humans called "Debuggers" physically entering them in order to slay the fae within. Otherwise they might play havoc with the data around them — or steal the souls of users. | |

In Shining the Holy Ark you can capture various types of "pixies". The Pixie a blond that looks like she's wearing a swimsuit; the Fairy a "traditional" looking fairy; the Succubus a green haired woman that shows a lot of ass; the Incubus a male fairy and the Leprechaun who looks as you would expect. You would collect each type and unleash them just before a battle to cause quick damage. The direction the enemy would enter the screen would indicate which type of fairy to use. Once you had all 50 pixies you could visit the queen of the pixies to get a magic wand that would allow you to attack with all 50 pixies at once, no matter the direction the enemy entered the battle. | |

The Seven Deadly Sins: King and his sister, Elaine, are long living child-like wingless humanoids capable of levitating themselves and other things. King, though, can transform himself into an older, fatter version of himself as he sees it as a form of respect when dealing with royals and others. | |

The five main characters of Fairy Ranmaru are all fairies who are disguised as humans. As fairies, they don't look much different from humans aside from having wings and Pointy Ears. The fairy world they hail from is ruled by the Fairy Queen and runs on a Hive Caste System, with each of the fairies hailing from one of the five fairy clans. | |

In The Dresden Files, Faerie is more of a descriptor for certain kinds of creatures from the spirit world, particularly the ones that originate from the region called, well, Faery. The most prominent of the fay races is the incredibly humanoid, achingly beautiful, frighteningly amoral Sidhe (pronounced as "She"). Others run the gamut from tiny, pizza-loving pixies, to hulking trolls, to centaurs and humanoid Billy Goats Gruff, and even possibly Santa Claus. Everything that shows up in the books that's not a mortal, vampire, deity, or demon is likely a kind of Faerie. All of them are burned by iron. Of course, to the Sidhe specifically, being called a "Fairy" is considered to be a slur, similar to calling a human an "ape". | |

Well World: The Faerie are a species of glowing insect-like beings with humanoid faces, living in colonies consisting of many tiny lesser specimens and a single large queen. They are native to the hex of Ivrom, where the local rules of physics give them abilities that are, for all intents and purposes, powerful magic. They are cruel and manipulative beings, delighting in tormenting and transforming unfortunates who stumble into their clutches, and once threatened to overrun a great deal of the Well World before the Markovians acted to limit them to their hex. Faeries who made their way to Old Earth were responsible for myths of fairies, witches and evil spirits. | |

Iolanthe: Fairies are immortal beings who look like human-sized 17-year-old girls with wings, though they have the ability to shrink, and are ruled by a queen. The title character, after marrying a mortal, has a half-fairy son named Strephon, taking the "half" part quite literally: His top half is fae while his bottom half is mortal, meaning his legs will eventually age and die while his top half looks young forever. Part of the plot's confusion is that Strephon's fiancé catches him embracing his incredibly young-looking mother and assumes the worst. When he later explains that his mother and all of his aunts look like attractive young women, we get this exchange: |

Discworld: Strictly speaking ,the Nac Mac Feegle, being small humanoid beings from Fairyland, probably count as fairies. They prefer "Pictsies". Several other weird beings that are probably fairies appear in The Wee Free Men, mostly based on Richard Dadd's painting "The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke". Discworld mythology also counts any supernatural being who exists to bring something or take it away as a fairy. The Tooth Fairy is the most famous, but Hogfather introduces the Hair Loss Fairy, the Veruca Gnome, and various others. In the same book Ridcully off-handedly mentions "them little buggers that live in flowers, used to collect 'em myself as a lad". The Tooth Fairy, meanwhile, mostly employs humans to collect teeth these days, though their actual species is boogeyman. The actual Fairies, so-called, are portrayed in Lords and Ladies and are very much The Fair Folk; people are afraid of them, they are very dangerous, and they have a Queen and King reminiscent of Titania and Oberon in some ways, and horned gods like Cernunnos in others. This trope in itself is actually a major plot device in The Science of Discworld II: Fairies, as described above, are horrendous monsters that prey on human imagination from their parasite universe, but their intervention is needed to give the humans of our Earth the spark of creativity that gets civilization started. However, allowing them to keep interfering results in Earth being locked in Medieval Stasis, with reason and the scientific method never catching on. The solution? Make sure that William Shakespeare writes A Midsummer Night's Dream, which permanently changes the human perception of fairies to be comical and harmless, rendering them incapable of influencing us further. |

Lily from Resonance Days has all the hallmarks of modern depictions of fairies, being an inhumanly beautiful elf-like woman with gossamer wings. She's even the head of a hidden faction who live in a forest! She's actually a witch, a former Magical Girl (who in this setting function like a Human Subspecies) who lost her memories in death and retains one inhuman trait from her old form, and her witch remnant happens to make her look like a fairy. And like The Fair Folk, her kindness and beauty is all a front hiding her true nature as a callous slaver and drug dealer who uses her Compelling Voice to turn her victims into lovestruck slaves to her every whim. | |

In the Torchwood episode "Small Worlds", fairies are actually children snatched out of time and turned into creatures humans initially see as light, but who have a true form of a gremlin-like monster. They choke people with rose petals that wrong the children they'd chosen to join them and spontaneously cause severe weather. Side note: their scientific name is "Homo fata vulgaris". | |

Homestuck: Tavros is mildly obsessed with insect-winged, Peter Pan-esque fairies. The narration usually goes out of its way, on occasions when these come up, to point out the fairies' dual attributes of being a) lovely, and b) fake and imaginary. Trolls who reach the god tiers develop transparent butterfly-like wings tinted with their blood colors; some, such as Tavros' ancestor the Summoner, seemingly grow them naturally. Trolls with such wings are often described as or referred to as fairies. |

In Faery: Legends of Avalon, the titular faeries come in various shapes and sizes. The player character is small by human standards, but there are faeries who are even smaller. Their wings and other attributes vary, but are generally insect-derived (dragonflies, butterflies, etc). They can also be a variety of colours — your own character can be particularly striking, if you use the character creator. They range in attractiveness from Fairy Sexy to Gonk. | |

My Vampire Older Sister and Zombie Little Sister has various kinds of fairies, both humanoid and non-humanoid, though the only one to make an appearance so far is the Leanan Sidhe. Leanan Sidhe can designate a human (or multiple humans) as their lover, giving them inspiration but draining their life force in exchange. They are also invisible and intangible to everyone and everything that isn't their lover. | |

In Amagi Brilliant Park, the vast majority of the workers at the titular theme park are fairies. Some of them look like cute, bipedal talking animals (which they cover up by pretending to be people in mascot costumes), while others appear mostly human, and all of them have magical abilities of some kind. Their existence depends on keeping the park open so that the energy from people's happiness can keep them alive. | |

The Mortal Instruments: The fairies are one of four known races of downworldlers, but they're considered the strangest of them. They are considered the common descendants of angels and demons. In general, they are as beautiful as angels for that reason, but at the same time as evil as demons. However,m the books also show less beautiful fairies, and only very few of them are really as vicious as demons. There are generally two groups of fairies. Some of them look very inhuman and have distinct features of animals and plants, almost always humanoid. The other group, the nobles among the fairies, look much more human-like. More like the third type (see above). They resemble typical elves, but often have horns, claws, wings, tails, or other animal features, and sometimes even plant characteristics. In some cases they look just like elves, except that they have unusual hair, skin or eye colors. In addition, they are also considered very pretty. They organize themselves in royal courts (Seelie and Unseelie), but most fairies move around alone, without belonging to a certain royal court. Etiquette and decency are very important to them. They are also known for their cruel sense of humor, and for being particularly insidious. Often, they offer a pact and their magic to a person, but later put it in. They cannot lie, but they formulate their words in such a way that there are loopholes. Because they can become hundreds of years old, they gain a lot of wisdom over time, as well as guile. They are physically very strong, and they also have sharp senses. In addition they have a magic, which is almost unique, and can be very powerful. They often use their magic to pretend to be human, but some humans still recognize they. They also have several weaknesses. Cold iron, rowan wood and salt weaken they. Likewise, someone can gain power over a fairy when he knows their true name. Fairies are slow to multiply, and so that their bloodlines do not weaken, they often exchange human children for their own weak children. For unknown reasons, the children receive magical powers in the fairy kingdom, and after a while they turn into fairies. Fairies can also have common children with humans. If this child grows up among humans, it differs only slightly from other humans, but still has some fairy features, such as pointed ears, or can detect magical illusions. Unlike full faeries, half-faeries can lie. As the half-fairy grows among fairies, she develops the same powers as other fairies. At the same time, she is much less affected by the weaknesses. Half-fairies, unlike pure fairies, can also lie. The child of a shadowhunter and a fairy is also a shadowhunter, albeit with fairy traits. Officially, most fairies are bisexual. For creatures with keen senses, such as vampires and werewolves, fairies smell like dead flowers. |

Stranger And Stranger: The fae are taller than humans, gifted with a powerful type of magic called a Blessing,rarely have wings, and tend to isolate themselves from humans. For example, the fae of Duircean, where the book is set, live in a forest. The fae also practice something called "snatching", where they cast a spell over a human child to turn them into a changeling faerie (which they actually have legal right to do). | |

Exalted: The Fair Folk are natives of the Wyld, the unshaped ocean of potentiality outside of Creation where things like "physics" and "causality" are foreign concepts. Unlike most other beings, the Fair Folk don't have a Motivation. Rather, they have something they adopt as a passing fancy, a role they enter into because it seems dramatically appropriate at the time. Oh, and they eat souls. Basically, they're role-playing gamers, Creation is their gameworld, and your PCs are just NPCs to them. Unsurprisingly, they have a hard time with concepts like empathy and consequences. | |

Proof: Fairies are dangerous carnivores that can easily kill humans in swarms. Female fairies are only a few inches tall; males are ''much'' larger than humans and have no wings. Their society and behavior is fairly insectoid, in that the females dramatically outnumber males, males are eaten after mating, and giving birth is fatal for the females. | |

Maleficent: "Fairy" is used to identify any magical creature that inhabits the Moors. Fairies range from Winged Humanoids like the title character to small pixies to Plant People, and all manner of water, dew, and stone fae. Like in actual folklore, Cold Iron burns them and is their one true weakness, a fact which is a major plot point. | |

Sofia the First: The Three Good Fairies and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty appear alongside Miss Nettle; Tinker Bell (due to sharing continuity with Peter Pan), which may possibly also include the Pixie Hollow fairies; fliegels (such as Grotta), the small, obnoxious and pesty, prankster kind of fairies; fairies from the Mystic Isles (including the Sugar Plum Fairy), where fairies can age and have children, have to earn their wings by winning the Fairy Cup, and seem to have an attribute system similar to the Pixie Hollow fairies' talents, albeit much more broad (such as being Dream Fairies); fairy godmothers like Cinderella's or Ruby's (Tizzy); and Merryweather mentions having wanted to be a tooth fairy in one episode Elena of Avalor: Orizaba is a moth fairy. She is resembles a deathly pale woman with giant moth wings, and due to being a nocturnal being who can only survive in the shade (especially during solar eclipses), she is Weakened by the Light. She's also a powerful magic user whose power would otherwise surpass that of the Big Bads and could only be defeated by the ancient Maruvians in the previous solar eclipse by stalling her out until the eclipse ended. |

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell takes The Fair Folk and adjusts them to fit the Georgian-era setting. The basic concept, as one of the many easy-to-miss footnotes explains, is that logic and magical ability are diametrically opposed; humans have great powers of logic and very little magical skill, while Faeries have tremendous magical power but most of them would be considered severely mentally ill by human standards. Accordingly, they don't even need wings since they can travel wherever on Earth they want via the King's Roads, and they wear clothes that are made of broken dreams or are "the color of heartbreak" or that sing or scream. They also have tremendous powers that no human can fight while simultaneously having a wide variety of Weaksauce Weaknesses, and are shown to stay out of human affairs less for the standard reasons than because they just don't care — they'd rather be at their all-night balls. In other words, they're a Shadow Archetype of what human British society was like at the time. | |

Moonflowers is a Fantasy Kitchen Sink set in Ireland, where the traditional version of The Fair Folk are Nature Spirits... and The Wild Hunt is a hundred-strong group of warriors terrorizing the rural areas, whose leader the Horned Hunter is the Anthropomorphic Personification of predators. They cursed the Asian-American protagonist and her family to impending death in a ritual hunt called the Fairy Raid, which has pissed off a growing number of deities. | |

Pathfinder: Fey are the natives of the First World, the collected amalgam of the gods' rough drafts and experiments left behind when they created the material world. The fey themselves descend from those experimental beings, including both variant versions of creatures included into finished creation and beings that never left the metaphorical sketch pad, or otherwise embody aspects of the natural world — dryads are embodiments of arboreal plant life, for instance, while gremlins embody entropy and the tendency for complex systems to break down. The First World's status as something the gods left behind also places fey apart from the cycle of life, death and afterlife — fey don't have souls and are usually reincarnated in the First World after death, although ones that perish in the material world risk permanent death. They're consequently unused to thinking in terms of mortality or permanent consequences, giving them a rather alien mindset from the point of view of mortals. | |

Dungeons & Dragons. This list contains just some of the canon and fan-made species. Pixies are noted for being one of the few truly playable high ECL (basically you get racial abilities instead of a higher character level) races, thanks to their strong racial ability scores, invisibility, spell-like abilities and flight. As of Heroes of the Feywild, Pixies have become an official PC race for 4th Edition. Along with Satyrs and Hamadryad. In Arcana Evolved, the fairies are made when either "Loresong" or "Quickling" Faen, essentially Elves and Halflings, secrete a sticky substance that becomes a chrysalis, and within 7 days time, the faen permanently metamorphs into a Spryte. Mystara: In the supplement Tall Tales of the Wee Folk, a centaur scholar claims that fairies are, in fact, the Immortals (gods) of a previous iteration of the multiverse. They helped nurture and preserve the Sphere of Life when opposing forces dominated the cosmos, and will do so again when the present Life-dominated reality yields to the Sphere of Death in an ever-repeating cycle. Until then, the fairy folk — pixies, sprites, leprechauns, sidhe, wood imps, drakes, brownies, pookas — retain their immortality but their power is diminished. Eberron finally nails down what the fey actually are. They have a lot of elemental traits (but that's covered by elementals), they have a lot of nature traits (but that's covered by plants or magical beasts), and even some malific or benevolent traits (covered by fiends or angels). This is because fey are living stories. A treant is a living tree, but a dryad is the idea of a living tree—which is why they are far more humanoid. Many parts of Thelanis (the fey plane) are absurd or completely illogical because they don't actually have to make sense; they are a story, and have no need to exist outside of that specific plot or idea they embody. Of course, problems arise when the fey end up in the mortal realm, where logic and physics are more important than theme and dramatic tension. |

The World of Darkness: Both Changeling gamelines make heavy use of the Fae: Changeling: The Dreaming splits its changelings up into Kiths; the Kithain, European-style fairies, range from Boggans to Nockers to Pooka to Redcaps to Sidhe to Trolls. And that's just the Kithain — you've got the Nunnehi (Native American fae), the Inanimae (elemental embodiments), the Hsien (Asian "small gods")... Changeling: The Lost has the True Fae, which are so different from one another as to give you whiplash. Not only that, but every single of them ends up different over the years; what may have been a man-eating giant a century ago could turn into La Belle Dame Sans Merci (or Baba Yaga). There's even a True Fae transforming robot (his alt is a motorcycle). Then you have the changelings, their escaped servants, who are split up into Seemings (general patterns of their durances in Arcadia) and Kiths (specified durances). A Ogre kept in a charnel pit may turn into a Gristlegrinder or an Oni, a Beast kept as a falcon may be a Windwing or a Cleareyes, or a Wizened forced to maintain his Keeper's estate may turn into a Chatelaine or a Drudge, or some combination if you use optional rules. And then you have the hobgoblins... |

The Legend of Zelda: In the original games, fairies simply restored hearts. Starting with the The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, the Great Fairies can also grant gifts, like extra powers and more item carrying capacity. In Majora's Mask we meet fairies who have been broken apart into dozens of littler fairies, and you had to restore them. Wind Waker introduces the Queen of the Fairies, who looks like a little girl. Also, they constantly switch from being winged to wingless and having insect-like antennae or not. And of course there's the spark fairies seen from Ocarina of Time onwards with the little butterfly wings. The true form of Veran, Sorceress of Shadows and Big Bad of Oracle of Ages, is that of an evil fairy. |

Willo from Paladins is a fairy who looks like a plant-based organism, with her clothes and body appearing to be merged to a certain degree. She may be the size of a small child, but with her wand and seedlings, she's a powerful damage champion that specializes in explosive area damage. | |

In The Iron King by Julie Kagawa, faeries are born from the dreams of humanity and sustained by humans and other fey remembering them. This leads to you having not just the traditional fey (The Fair Folk) represented by the Summer (Seelie) and Winter (Unseelie) Courts, but the Iron Fey that named the series. The Iron fey are born from dreams of science and technology, of innovation and industry, and thus are not only immune to iron, but are essentially walking faerie krptonite. They also do not try to capture you in favors as much as the "oldblooded" fey, as they call the older fey species. Ferrum, their first king, was born when mankind first started to forge iron. | |

Gunnerkrigg Court has "Regional Fairies". They have spots on their shoulders showing which "region" they live in. They learn magic and make their own wings, and they don't gain names until they've come of age. City Face shows the regional fairies offering important advice to pigeons and magpies. Their dialogue hints that they don't distinguish between lengths of space and lengths of time — and the twin sisters Ogee and Torus can never be seen at the same time by humans, because they occupy the same space and time, but at different periods along a non-linear time scale. | |

Mystara: In the supplement Tall Tales of the Wee Folk, a centaur scholar claims that fairies are, in fact, the Immortals (gods) of a previous iteration of the multiverse. They helped nurture and preserve the Sphere of Life when opposing forces dominated the cosmos, and will do so again when the present Life-dominated reality yields to the Sphere of Death in an ever-repeating cycle. Until then, the fairy folk — pixies, sprites, leprechauns, sidhe, wood imps, drakes, brownies, pookas — retain their immortality but their power is diminished. | |

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz: L. Frank Baum wanted to distance his "American fairy tale" from the old fairy tales of Europe, so he went out of his way to make his fairies very different. For instance, none of Baum's fairies fly, with only a couple possible exceptions. Fairies in Baum's universe are on a god-like level, immortals ruling over various aspects of nature (an entire pantheon is given in Tik-Tok of Oz). | |

Peter Pan: Fairies — especially the complicated character of Tinker Bell, a friend of Peter and a great enemy of Wendy at the same time — are very important. It is said that since they are so small, they can only hold one emotion inside themselves at a time, and hence are totally consumed by it. Like insects, they also don't live long; Tinker Bell is dead within a year of the Darlings leaving Neverland. Peter Pan In Kensington Garden, which was basically Baum's rough draft of the above, has a whole host of fairies living in the titular locale. They're more benevolent, lacking Tinker Bell's emotional issues, and return Peter's flying power when he loses it. They also have a custom of marrying with the bride jumping into the groom's arm. |

Book of Imaginary Beings: Fairies are beautiful but mischievous beings that appear in legends all over the world. They can be the same size as people, taller or no more than three feet tall. They kidnap people and imprison them underground, and the Italian fata morgana creates mirages with which to confuse sailors and make them run aground. While they may take mortal lovers, they will often kill their partners once this whim passes. They are fond of song, music and the color green. | |

A society of fairies appear in the Spellsinger novel The Day of the Dissonance. They look like classic tiny winged humanoids, but they're too heavy to fly, and they occasionally have a craving to eat passing travellers. Tom-Jon quickly realises that the issue is their typical diet (nectar and ambrosia are pure sugar), but since they refuse to change it, he instead teaches them the strange magic of "aerobics". | |

Middle-Earth Role Playing: "Fairy" is a general term used to refer to the lesser Maiar, mostly ones who are tied to nature in some way. Many played some role in shaping the world during the Elder Days, although a few are comparatively more recent spirits. Almost all the ones remaining in the world are tied to guardianship of something, usually a specific place or landform. | |

Discworld mythology also counts any supernatural being who exists to bring something or take it away as a fairy. The Tooth Fairy is the most famous, but Hogfather introduces the Hair Loss Fairy, the Veruca Gnome, and various others. In the same book Ridcully off-handedly mentions "them little buggers that live in flowers, used to collect 'em myself as a lad". The Tooth Fairy, meanwhile, mostly employs humans to collect teeth these days, though their actual species is boogeyman. | |

Godforsaken: Faeries are puckish and whimsical magic creatures resembling tiny winged humanoids. Some might only perform a silly song or follow people for a while, flitting around and asking questions like an annoying young child. Some are crueller and delight in stealing clothing, equipment or prized objects. A few are downright malicious and, under the guise of a helpful guide or a pretty light in the distance, lure lost travellers to their dooms. The less malicious ones can be bargained with using offerings of sweet foods or wine, but still tend to have short attention spans. | |

Pokémon have always had a few creatures that are based on fairies and fairy-like creatures. Many of them are small adorable creatures like the Clefairy, Roselia, and Snorunt lines. All of them belong to an egg group (a classification of Pokemon that can breed with each other) called the Fairy egg group (including Series Mascot Pikachu). It wasn't until Pokémon X and Y that Fairy was introduced as an actual type in order to combat the overpowered Dragon-types, and many older Pokemon were given the new type. These range from the previously mentioned Clefairy line to more mystic ones like the Ralts line and devious ones like Mawile. The Fairy-types introduced in later generations include the elegant and stately Flabébé line, the mischievous key-stealing Klefki, the Cutiefly line, which approaches the traditional Winged Humanoid image by way of being a humanoid bee, and the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas, a massive deer and effectively a god of rebirth. Outwardly malevolent ones were also introduced, namely the soul-eating Morelull line, the silent, territorial, witch-styled Hatenna line, and the violent, aggressive, and mischievous Impidimp line. Fairy-types are vulnerable to Steel-type attacks, as a nod to fairies' weakness to Cold Iron, and to Poison-type ones, representing nature's weakness to pollution. And then there's Galarian Weezing. A pair of floating sea mines stuck together (as with normal Weezing), now sporting top hat shaped chimmneys and moustaches of pea souper smog. And it's a Poison/Fairy type. | |

Godzilla: The Shobijin, Mothra's twin fairy companions, stand about six inches tall and are able to teleport short distances as well as understand what the monsters are saying... oh, and they can summon Mothra as well to aid them. In the "Return of Mothra" films, they are accompanied by Fairy Mothra, essentially a toy-sized Mothra that acts as a guardian and transport. | |

Touhou Project: Fairies are depicted as being childlike in both appearance and personality. However, they possess Resurrective Immortality, as when they die they will just respawn elsewhere. Gameplay-wise, this makes them the perfect Mooks for the heroines to mow through. In general, fairies are pranksters, childish, and have limited capabilities to learn from experience. They're also at the bottom of the ladder when it comes to power (with some exceptions, like Clownpiece). Setting-wise, fairies are actually the embodiment of life and nature, and thus have the power to control lifeforce (they're just too stupid to realize that). A lifeless land will become a lush, fertile land when fairies inhabit it. Special mention deserves to go to Cirno, one of the franchise's more popular characters. She calls herself the strongest being in Gensokyo, but is only a Stage 2 boss at best; on the other hand, it has been noted by other characters that she's abnormally strong for a fairy. She also calls herself a genius, which is only true when compared to other fairies, since she's literate and her attention span is slightly longer than average. Since she's immortal like all fairies, her Gaiden Game Fairy Wars doesn't use a Life Meter, but rather a "Motivation Meter", and if it empties she forgets what she was doing and wanders off to do something else. | |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy: A fairy gives the player an item that enables them to breathe underwater. Final Fantasy III: They inhabit the Living Wood and will give the player a gift if they save their home. They appear as enemies in Final Fantasy Legend II and III'. Final Fantasy Tactics: Faerie is a summon and heals the party. She has wings of a bird rather than the traditional dragonfly or butterfly wings. There's the recurring summon Sylph that appears either as one or a group of fairies. The traditional attack "Whispering Wind" drains HP from the enemy and gives it to the party. In Revenant Wings Sylph instead deals non-elemental damage with "Aero". Final Fantasy XIV reintroduces Sylphs as a beast tribe that reside in the Black Shroud who tend to shun human contact outside of one village. The expansion Shadowbringers also introduces fae folk in the region of Il Mheg, including the Pixies, mischievous sprites that like to play games and pranks with any mortals that cross their path. |

Magic: The Gathering: Faeries appear in multiple sets and planes as diminutive insect-winged humanoids. They are typically aligned with Blue, the color of magic, thought and mentalism. In Ravnica, faeries are mischievous Blue-aligned tricksters who often play pranks on other natives of the plane. In Lorwyn, they're often particularly insect-like, with insectoid legs and antennas, and are cruel and mean-spirited tricksters. Unlike other depictions, they don't live particularly long, often just a few years, and spend their lives pursuing amusement, often at the expense of others. They're particularly fascinated by the dreams of other races, which they frequently harvest. The faeries and their Queen, Oona, are also the only creatures not affected by the Great Aurora that periodically turns the idyllic Lorwyn into the dark and haunted Shadowmoor and back. There's also a variant of faeries named groundlings, which do not have wings. In Eldraine, faeries vary widely in size and are divided into three types. Meddling fae are aligned with White, human-sized and very morally-minded, wandering around human lands to help or punish people based on their actions. Thieving fae, the most common type, are aligned with Blue, no larger than an apple and delight in stealing objects. Prankster fae, aligned with Black, are the size of human children, have batlike wings and yellow eyes, and are particularly malicious in nature. Regardless of type, they all live in the Wilds and are opposed to the five knightly courts. |

Fablehaven: Fairies are the standard tiny, winged and female humanoids; although most have the usual dragonfly and insect wings, some have those of beetles, locusts, bats and birds. They also have aa rather alien moral system and are ruled by a Fairy Queen who is in fact an elder unicorn. If kept indoors overnight, they will be transformed into hideous, wingless imps; it's revealed in the last book that there used to be male fairies once, but they were all transformed into the first imps. | |

The Fairly OddParents! is about fairies that have taken up the task of watching over a miserable human child in need. There is, however, a distinction between a fairy and a fairy godparent. Fairies are able to roam free in fairy world, living as they please. By going to the Fairy Academy, a fairy can become a fairy godparent and get assigned to a godchild. Fairy godparents have more power in reality warping than normal fairies, and are trained in happy wishmaking, as shown in "This Is Your Wish". The leader of the fairies is a muscular Arnold Schwarzenegger-inspired character named Jorgen Von Strangle. This is because creator Butch Hartman thought it would be funny to have the fairy leader be someone you'd least expect, and Arnold Schwarzenegger was the first thing that came to his mind. | |

Chronicles of the Emerged World: The fairies — folletti, in Italian — are diminutive winged humanoids very closely connected to magic and nature, and which make their homes in forests where other races do not go. They're a declining species in the series' time, as the Tyrant has destroyed most of the forests where they live and armies on both sides of the war are in the habit of systematically hunting them to force them to be scouts, jesters or mascots. | |

Most fairies in The Faerie Queene are pretty average humans and elves, except they are more beautiful, magical, and private than your average folk. Most of the "faerie's" we see are knights and royals (like the unseen titular queen), and it's not until in Book IV that meet a proper one in Agape, mother of the noble triplets and friend of the Fates. | |

The Dark Eye: Fairies are a varied group of creatures that originate from the fairy realm and can cross into Dere when holes open between the two worlds. They sicken and die if they spend too much time away from their home, however, requiring them to periodically return to the fairy lands to rest and recover. Blossom fairies are the classic tiny, butterfly-winged, forest-dwelling humanoid kind. They're the most common type and the ones most people think of when they think of fairies. They are all female, and wear clothing shaped like flower blossoms. Nymphs and dryads are larger and resemble beautiful humanoid women, and appoint themselves as protectors of ancient trees and of bodies of water, respectively. |

They're about 10 centimeters tall, don't have wings, grin stupidly constantly, have undefined supernatural powers, and really like sweets.

El Goonish Shive: Nanase's Fairy Doll Spell causes her mind to temporarily leaves her body to inhabit a tiny version of herself with wings. Great for communication/scouting, not so great for fighting. The introvert Dex gains summoning magic through mysterious means. His main summon is a fairy companion, since he's lonely. He acknowledges that she's not a real fairy, and is guided by his own desire for friendship. Susan has an item-summoning spell that, when she tries to summon one of Nanase's Fairy Dolls, winds up creating a fairy not unlike Dex's, which independently acts on the emotions and desires Susan herself doesn't want to express. Eventually, it's revealed that there are, in fact, real fairies. They're the "immortals" that have been part of the storyline all along. Why they stopped using that name is unclear, but Heka insists on continuing to use it, on the grounds that there's more than one type of creature with immortality and they need to have distinct names. |

Warhammer: Spites (often corrupted into "Sprites" in peasant folklore) are a kind of diminutive forest spirit found in woodlands throughout the Old World, and especially in the vast enchanted forest of Athel Loren. They're cruel tricksters with extremely nasty tempers, and not to be trifled with lightly. They're adept shapeshifters, and can appear as glowing orbs of light, tiny elves riding beetles or black birds or skeletal horses, diminutive winged humanoids, odd-looking forest animals or anything else they've a mind to. They also tend to gather around the mightier denizens of the forest, and can often be seen nesting among the branches of treemen or clinging to the bodies of forest dragons. | |

Strictly speaking ,the Nac Mac Feegle, being small humanoid beings from Fairyland, probably count as fairies. They prefer "Pictsies". Several other weird beings that are probably fairies appear in The Wee Free Men, mostly based on Richard Dadd's painting "The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke". | |

Delicious in Dungeon: it's explained in supplementary material that the fairies which accompany some of the Canaries are a type of homunculus and do not appear to be sapient. They're used as a form of magical walkie-talkie; anything said to a fairy will be telepathically passed along to another fairy of choice, which relays the message. An omake has Marcille discovering fairies are made out of semen, various herbs, horse manure, and other items, which is fermented into a blob-like fetus that needs to fed blood every day for forty weeks straight before it's viable. She's understandably revolted by the process and is immediately turned off from wanting one. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic also has changelings, who are closer to The Fair Folk. They resemble a cross between winged-insects and partially decomposed corpses of ponies. They have the ability to perfectly mimic a pony's appearance (although their nasty personalities give them away) and can become more powerful as they feed on someone's love. Their favorite tactic is draining the love from others that is intended for the one they captured and copiedwhich is what they did to Princess Cadence before her wedding. | |

Changeling: The Lost has the True Fae, which are so different from one another as to give you whiplash. Not only that, but every single of them ends up different over the years; what may have been a man-eating giant a century ago could turn into La Belle Dame Sans Merci (or Baba Yaga). There's even a True Fae transforming robot (his alt is a motorcycle). Then you have the changelings, their escaped servants, who are split up into Seemings (general patterns of their durances in Arcadia) and Kiths (specified durances). A Ogre kept in a charnel pit may turn into a Gristlegrinder or an Oni, a Beast kept as a falcon may be a Windwing or a Cleareyes, or a Wizened forced to maintain his Keeper's estate may turn into a Chatelaine or a Drudge, or some combination if you use optional rules. And then you have the hobgoblins... | |

Elena of Avalor: Orizaba is a moth fairy. She is resembles a deathly pale woman with giant moth wings, and due to being a nocturnal being who can only survive in the shade (especially during solar eclipses), she is Weakened by the Light. She's also a powerful magic user whose power would otherwise surpass that of the Big Bads and could only be defeated by the ancient Maruvians in the previous solar eclipse by stalling her out until the eclipse ended. | |

Child of the Storm has the vaguely Tolkienian Light Elves of Alfheim — to the point where Prince Faradei is described as the in-universe inspiration for Legolas — and the Faerie Courts of The Dresden Files, who are a fairly quintessential example of The Fair Folk, with even the 'nicer' Summer Fae being a bit alien. They aren't related — the former were pre-existing before the foundation of Yggdrasil, so over a million years old. The latter, on the other hand, were a prehistoric human population that found its way into the Nevernever and slowly evolved not just to use magic, but to essentially be one with it. | |

Their Midnight Revels: There are some differences in Miranda and Ariel's interactions with Thomas and Edith that are contrary to typical folklore portrayals. For example, nothing goes wrong when Edith and Thomas eat the food in Faerie, perhaps because they are enchanted already, or because Miranda and Ariel swore that they were under their magical protection, nothing would happen to them. Also Miranda and Ariel make it clear that nothing is being done with Edith or Thomas' free will. They ask them to join the Revels and later ask them to remain in Faerie letting them know all of the consequences beforehand. While O'Brien mentions the possibility that Sybil's child may be a changeling, one look shows that he is not, perhaps because Bobby was not taken by either his own free will or his parents'. Also, Miranda and Ariel’s characters evolve when they realize that they love Edith and Thomas. | |

Shadowhunters: Fairies are known as Seelies. They are among the Downworlder species (species that are part demon) and have the distinction of also being part angel. They cannot tell lies, but are still considered untrustworthy. Meliorn is a Seelie that has an affair with Isabelle and helps Clary and Jace open a portal to another dimension in "The World Inverted." | |

One, "la fée fagot" (the faggotnote In the British sense of "bundle of sticks" fairy), is the "tiny flying humanoid" type and grants wishes, but only to wood (Pinocchio is a frequent recipient/victim). The other, human-sized, is a lazy bum who uses magic to do everything without ever getting up from her couch. | |

Trials of Mana, faeries (spelled as such in-game) protect the Mana Tree and require Mana to live. They can harmlessly inhabit the head of a human, allowing them to live away from the Sanctuary of Mana for extended periods of time, but can't inhabit a new human until the chosen human dies. And the one faerie who follows around the heroes eventually becomes the new Mana Goddess. | |

This trope in itself is actually a major plot device in The Science of Discworld II: Fairies, as described above, are horrendous monsters that prey on human imagination from their parasite universe, but their intervention is needed to give the humans of our Earth the spark of creativity that gets civilization started. However, allowing them to keep interfering results in Earth being locked in Medieval Stasis, with reason and the scientific method never catching on. The solution? Make sure that William Shakespeare writes A Midsummer Night's Dream, which permanently changes the human perception of fairies to be comical and harmless, rendering them incapable of influencing us further. | |

The Weave: Called fairies, though technically they are more of The Fair Folk: Human-sized, very beautiful, pointy-eared, don't have wings (in default mode at least), can have unusual eye or hair colors and some non-human features (at least one of them has been seen with antlers), and all of them are capable of doing magic in some way, i. e. transform themselves. They are definitely not the sunny, wish-fulfilling sort of fairies, but more likely the sort of people who'd abduct you and leave you lost in the deep dark woods. | |

Atelier Series: Fairies are males the size of little boys and dressed in green. The only exceptions are their old village leader, and the hideous muscle-bound "fairy" from Mana Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy. Also, despite the fact that they don't age physically, faeries can age in personality. This becomes a minor plot point in the third Atelier Iris game, in which an npc gets majorly weirded out by a fairy talking like an old man. | |

The Fey and the Fallen: Most of the fairies we see are the Irish Tuatha Dé Danann, and they are in a war with Fallen Angels. Irish fey are vulnerable to iron, have clans and political infighting among themselves, and are capable of making Half-Human Hybrids. While other kinds of fey exist, they are from countries outside of Ireland and seldom seen in-story. | |

In the Pretty Cure franchise, all fairies are different. They don't even look remotely human, being Ridiculously Cute Critters instead, and every series shows another kind of fairies from different worlds. Most fairies can transform into something, e.g. Transformation Trinkets or humans, and some of them have special powers to support the heroines. A few mascots are able to fight, and two of them are even heroines themselves. | |

GURPS, being designed as a Universal System, supports all sorts of concepts of fairies, as appropriate to the setting. For example: Fairies in GURPS Fantasy are living illusions. Their magic can be as easily destroyed by iron as they are. Fairies in GURPS Thaumatology: Alchemical Baroque are a category of supernatural being who can take a whole range of weird and wonderful shapes — though manifesting as gigantic monsters tends to burn out their shapechanging powers, leaving them stuck as ogres, dragons, or whatever. |

Pan's Labyrinth: Fairies that look like flying praying mantises... which can shapeshift into more human-like shape when shown a picture of what they're "supposed" to look like. The Pale Man, a monstrous, child-devouring fae. |

Rifts: Faerie Folk come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. They can be less than six inches or up to three feet tall, cute or horrendous, friendly (for a given value of such) or mean, and have varying powers. And of course, this being Rifts and all, can take almost as much damage as a modern Armored Personnel Carrier. Also, don't eat their food. They seem to have a penchant for Visual Puns involving the name of their food and what Transformations or charm effects it causes. For example, Tarts tend to make women extremely amorous, Burgundy wine turns you that color, and you should stay the hell away from the Frog's Legs, unless that's what you want. | |

The Wandering Inn: Faeries only are seen in the world, when winter comes, as it is their duty to bring it to the world. Citizen of the world can't actually see their real appearances, instead of they only perceive a blue blur, thus don't think of them as actual people, but as a natural phenomenon. | |

La Sylphide (or The Sylph): The protagonist falls in love with a beautiful fairy with rainbow wings. He abandons his mortal fiancee to chase after her. Wicked Witch Old Madge tells him she is unable to be with him as she will always fly away. She then presents him with a magic scarf that will prevent her from flying away. It makes her wings fall off and she dies. | |

Sword Art Online: The second story arc introduces an MMO called ALfheim Online, with all players playing as fairies. By the end of the arc, everyone from SAO is playing, with each player using a different race: Kirito selects a Spriggan, a race that specializes in illusory magic and treasure-finding (making this race fairly unpopular, since neither skill is useful in combat). Leafa, the second story arc's deuteragonist, is a Sylph, and as such specializes in wind-based magic and high agility. Asuna plays an Undine. Her race's forte is support and healing magic and underwater combat. She also has an alternate Sylph character. Lizbeth selects Leprechaun as her race. While having no combat specializations, it's an ideal class for item crafters. Silica plays a Cait Sith. Aside from being agile, Cait Siths are the only race in the game that can be beast tamers. Klein rolls a Salamander, specialists in fire-based magic and possessing naturally-enhanced strength. Agil picks Gnome as his race. Gnomes specialize in earth-based magic and, among the other fairy races, are quite massive. |

Ars Magica: Fairies subconsciously take on roles from human stories and reenact them with (usually) unwitting humans to obtain the vitality they crave. This trait makes faeries difficult to combat (except by apotropaic magics) since in many cases their "death" is part of the story and only provides additional vitality. | |

In Charmed (1998) fairies can only be seen by children, though adults can see them if they believe and a spell can be cast to make them innocent again. Along with trolls, fairies live in "in-betweens" — windows, doorways, shadows — and thus are able to cross over into our world. They are able to do so freely during midnight when the world itself becomes an in-between. After the fairies' debut episode, the sisters apparently created a spell that allows them to see fairies from then on as they appear frequently in the series. They are also notorious for stealing things — which results in a funny moment when (taking Paige's advice too literally) the fairies return everything they ever stole from Henry, including things he lost in high school. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: "Fairy" is one of the twenty-odd monster types in the game, and encompasses fairies of all kinds as well as angels (as that was indeed the type's name in Japanese). It's also the go-to categorization for various otherworldly or supernatural creatures, from Lovecraftian alien abominations to crystalline constructs to magical idol singers. | |

Merlin (2008): There are several episodes with the Sidhe, a fairy race associated with the legends of England and Ireland. They're blue-faced and many carry magic staffs. A Sidhe can entrance a human and can be placed inside a human child to take full control later in life. The two in "The Gates of Avalon" had been banished and were seeking a human prince to sacrifice so the daughter could return to Avalon. Pixies, another race, sometimes work with them. Queen Mab makes an appearance in the Dark Tower episode. She is a mischievous trickster. |

Artemis Fowl: "Fairy" is a catch-all term for all non-human sapients who refer to themselves as "the People", which includes centaurs and demons, as well as unicorns before their extinction, as well as more obviously fey creatures like elves, pixies, sprites, gnomes, Gremlins, goblins and dwarves. Only sprites have natural wings (batlike ones, notably); other species have built mechanical ones, and they're a metre tall on average, although one character is said to be "barely half a metre" tall, on one occasion they're able to find clothes that fit a 13-year-old human (probably somewhere around 1.5 metres), so there's obviously a decent range, as with humans. In most People, magic gives healing ability, invisibility, hypnotism, and the ability to speak any language; only a few, called warlocks, can use it for anything more complicated, like playing with the flow of time. They also have very strict rules they must follow to use their magic. They have to perform certain rituals to recharge their magical energies, and forfeit their magical ability when they break certain rules. Each species also has certain unique qualities, such as sprite's wings, demonic metamorphosis, and dwarven Fartillery. The ability to speak any language, while perhaps helped along by a bit of magic, seemingly comes from the fact that the People's Gnomish is the ancestor of all languages (including American Dog). It's also noted that all of the fairy species evolved from pterosaurs towards the end of the Cretaceous. The presence of bony spurs on their shoulder blades is given as proof of long-vanished wings, although this makes very little sense when considering that pterosaur wings were modified arms, not an additional set of limbs. |

The Other Kingdom: In this universe, fairies tend to resemble humans in terms of height, coloring, and body structure but they have characteristics that reveal their otherworldly and magical nature. A fairy's glowing wings distinguish them from other mystical creatures. They aren't born with their wings but grow their wings at a certain age but the exact age differs from fairy to fairy. Wings may be a sign that a fairy has received her full powers as Peaseblossom seemed to lack any form of fairy magic when she lacked wings. They can change into a tiny orb of light the same hue as their wings. Fairies revert to this form instantly and without consent when they enter the Other Kingdom but a few can maintain their human-sized shape such as the Athenian monarchs. | |

In The King's Beard, fairies are a Mage Species of humanoids with pointy ears and small dragonfly wings, who seemingly live openly among humans, being seen as unusual, but not that remarkable. As his name implies, Sophie's father Wizzy is a Wizard Classic, but he's still considered a fairy. As an additional wrinkle, a fairy's wand is an Amulet of Dependency for them, and they die if separated from it for too long — even though it is very much possible for an unscrupulous human to steal a fairy's wand and use it for themselves. | |

In Polish comic book Lil i Put: Fairies have coal-black skin, humanoid bodies with what appear to be cross between antennae and horns on top of their heads. They live in dark caves, are technology obsessed and appear to be the most tech advance race in the land (to the point of making references to contemporary objects in contrast to the series' medieval setting) Their language sounds like ringing of a bell which is represented by drawings of bells in their speech bubbles (which leads to a lot of variation depending on what they're expressing at the moment. ) | |

In The Hobbit, the word "fairy" is occasionally used, but seems to be synonymous with elf, much as The Hobbit refers to "goblins" where the same creatures in The Lord of the Rings are called "orcs". It's possible Tolkien intended for Hobbits themselves to have some traits of faeries — a race of little people living where humans cannot see, with an uncanny knack for going unseen and a close kinship with the earth — are all traits common in older (read "pre-Disney") faeries. Meanwhile the Elves got the depiction of a forest-dwelling, Inhumanly Beautiful Race, which were the other most common traits. He seems to have dropped the child-stealing and Cold Iron bits altogether. |
