Light Faeries
Gnomes
- Gnomes are considered good "light" faeries although some are very mischievous
but not in a harmful way. Though they do tend to take things without asking and
without returning them later. Gnomes look like small men standing from 10 to 18
inches tall. Their hair is curly or sometimes straight up without any facial
hair. Thier faeriy powers of gnomes are invisibility, and heat and cold. Gnomes
can be invisible when and how long they want. This power works only on humans
even though other faeries can see through gnomes. Also if a gnome dies his heart
will turn invisible. Any dark wizard that consumes the heart will gain the
ability to turn invisible.
Elves
- Elves are very
tall and beautiful cretures. Thier average height are 6 to 7 feet, Some happen
to be muscular with a wide waist and wide shoulders for male. Their ears are
have pointed tips and their eyes are pretty much slanted upwards. They are
thousands of years old, although gnomes happen to be even older.
Brownies
- They are about a foot in height, wearing clothes rarely ( mostly around humans
though). when wearing clothes female brownies wear pleasing tops yet not lowcut.
Their skirts have some space to allow movement. They do not wear shoes that
often because they like to feel the earth benieth them, although if they do wear
shoes they are very lightweight. They sometimes wear cone-shaped hats that are
made of soft material. They make sure never to cover their ears with their hair
as they are very fond of their ears, seeing them as beauty. Their clothes show
what area they live. They also have very lovaly singing voices and always seem
to be carrying around an instrument. Imitating sounds of nature with their
instruments.
Devas
- Devas are
similar to angels. They help to direct the gnomes and others who work to protect
mother earth. They protect areas from the humans and others. When an area they
protect is very hurt, it gives them pain and they have to stay there till the
end. After they return to help out mother earth in any other way possible.
Sprites
- Are beautiful, tiny creatures with wings that are shaped like butterfly wings that
reflect many colors but are also usually transparent, but they can change their
wings colors if they please. They are very playful creatures though they are
ancient but filled with spiritual wisdom.

You should have faeries huddled around in excitement, although the faeries have found your basket of goodies do not expect your gifts and nik naks to be gone. Faeries live in a spiritual world so they will only take the spiritual goods from these items but will leave the outer shell of your goodies .If you want any respectful faeries to stay around for a long time, make sure to replace these goodies often.
