Fairies are humanistic looking creatures with insect wings who are typically small in size. Some can be human-sized however, and they hold larger responsibilities as a result.
Abilities and Occupations[]
Most, if not all fairies, can perform many types of magic. These range from transformation spells to pixie dust that can make others fly. However, the human-sized fairies wield stronger abilities while the smaller fairies are mostly limited to their dust. In addition, the small fairies have a bright glow which makes them especially visible at night.
Individuals such as the Fairy Godmother also hold major businesses dedicated to manufacturing potions and spells. In contrast, fairies such as Tinker Bell are similar to common bugs, being eaten by frogs and ramming into walls. They are however still intelligent creatures, showing disgust when Shrek and Fiona fart in a mud bath.
