Faeries

Faeries, also known as the fae, are tiny, mysterious creatures who dwell in the woods.

Characteristics
Faeries are rarely ever seen, even by other mystical creatures like the naga and centaurs. They dwell in the woods and keep to themselves like the elves.

There are many types of faeries. Calling one a faerie isn't exactly correct as their are many species of faeries. It is unknown what the differences are between faerie types. Even Miss Simone, Carter's lead scientist, couldn't tell what type of faerie Abigail was.

Fairies often hold parties and celebrations at dawn, when their magic is strongest.

Nature
Faeries are peaceful creatures who possess no malice or hatred towards other species. It is unknown if they are shy or just wish to stay away from other species. They are also not forthcoming with the knowledge of their ways like some intelligent species who showed their civilizations to humanity, like the centaurs and goblins. However, they will share their secrets with a faerie shapeshifter an even give her some of their magic like the glass ball. It is possible for humans to make contact with faeries as Carter's scientists did get a faerie blood sample; the source of Abigail's powers.

Faeries are curious and according to Abigail, they sometimes use their magic to ride around inside people's minds to see the world beyond the forest without being seen.

Physical Features
Faeries are humanoid with the similar physical characteristics and colouring. They are the size of a twelve year old child's hand. Their ears are pointed and their skin glows. Like the fairies of storybooks, faeries have shimmering, translucent wings. They are shaped like a butterfly's and patterns and colours may vary. Abigail's wings are bright blue with veins of gold. Smart clothes worn by a fairy will glow just like her.

Powers and Abilities

 * Flight: Faery wings are not just for show. With them, they can dart through the air with the speed and agility of a dragonfly.
 * Light: Like fireflies, faeries radiate light. It shines from within their skin. If a faery wears smart clothes, her clothes will gain her light.
 * Night vision: Faeries have excellent night vision and are most active at night when most species are sleeping.
 * Hot spot sensing: Faeries are among the first creatures to sense hot spots of magic after a phoenix rebirth. They can sense where they are. Other species may follow them to find these magic replenishing areas.
 * Faery magic: Faeries have their own form of sorcery which is strongest at noon. Their magic is affiliated with the mind and memories. They can enter a person's head without alerting the person and see through that creature's eyes. Faeries can do the reverse and let another creature see through their eyes. Faeries can also craft charmed glass orbs which have the power to unlock forgotten memories.
