Fairies are one of the sentient races native to Medius, found mostly in the Southern Woods of Fragaria, and more rarely in other locations such as St. Curtis.
Physical Features[]
Fairies are tiny furry humanoids that resemble insects, commonly with the general appearance of butterflies, moths or bees. They have beige fuzzy bodies and long ears. Their hair can be any color, but will generally match their wing or body color. Their hands and feet possess four and three claw-like digits respectively. Some Fairies such as Willow and Eve seem to glow in bright colors, for reasons yet unknown.[2]
Their insect-like traits are part of the fairy's natural defenses which allows them to blend in among the local fauna when seen from a distance; their appearance is an emulation of winged insects in the area they were born. Moth-like Fairies have fuzzy antennae instead of smooth ones, bee-like Fairies have stingers and striped bodies.
Behavior[]
For the most part they seem to be no different from the other races of Medius in that they have a diverse set of personalities; though they seem to be even more reclusive than even Jakkai as they tend to avoid any contact with the outside races. As such, most Medians see Fairies as a mythical race, to the point they might capture them as to sell them on the black market, which only fuels further mistrust and seclusion. Fairies who do open up to other races will only reveal themselves when needed; they appear to be amicable and helpful, even to strangers.
Lifespan[]
So far, in the case of Duster, Fairies seem to age just as naturally as every other race. However it's unknown as to how long they can live up to; though with the Fairy Queen it's possible they can live for a very long period of time.
Powers and Abilities[]
Fairies are physically weak but seemingly have significant Magical power. They are known for the following:
Fairy Kiss: Fairies have the ability to mark people with a sort of invisible protection charm by kissing them on the nose. It prevents the Fairy Queen from killing them (at least not right away) as the Fairies show trust in whoever they kiss and possibly would not want them killed. This protection can be sensed from a distance, and beings such as the Guardians are also able to sense it.
Fairy Language: Fairies are so far the second known race to have their own native language. It's possible for other Medians to understand it and Fairies in turn can learn Lingo. Unlike Angelic, which is represented by blue text in the comic while having a rune lettering system, the Fairy Language has yet to be spoken aloud.
Flight: All Fairies, despite their continually unique appearances, have the ability to fly using the large wings on their backs.

Fairy Queen[]
Fragarian Fairy Tales tell that the Fairy race is ruled by a powerful queen. The queen is said to hunt down and kill Medians who harm her subjects, leaving only the victim's skull behind, covered in pink glitter. This can be prevented (somehow) by having a Fairy kiss someone, as if placing a protective charm on them to prevent the queen from killing them.
Trivia[]
- In the Southern Woods, Fairies are hunted by Sprite Snatchers as food.
