Editing Aethia

[[Image:Aethia HTD.gif|frame|right|Aethia's ''How to Draw'' final image.]]

'''Aethia''' is a [[Faerie]] who currently bears the title of '''Battle Faerie''', wielder of the ''Sword of Flame'' and ''Sword of Ice''. Always in the [[battledome]] looking for a challenger, rewarding and teaching [[Neopet]]s with great fighting abilities. Aethia seeks to teach others to protect themselves as other Battle Faeries have done before her. 

==History of the Battle Faerie==
Much of the Battle Faerie is shrouded in mystery. It's widely known though that the Battle Faerie appears when danger looms, ready to defend those who are too weak to stand up for themselves. It's also known ''Battle Faerie'' is a title warrior born Faeries take, although how many Battle Faeries there were and who they were is unknown. The only known Battle Faerie besides Aethia is '''Valeane''', the previous one before her. She was a student to Shyvara, and daughter of Dreeana.

Long ago, in times of war, the Battle Faerie taught inexperienced Neopets to defend themselves and on rare occasions fought the strongest to teach them a lesson. She was also said to be the leader of [[Fyora]]'s army. The Battle Faerie disappeared for a time when peace returned to Neopia, but reappeared when the Battledome returned, perhaps sensing her skills were needed again.

Another common trait of all Battle Faeries are the ''Sword of Flame'' and ''Sword of Ice'', which have a riddle inscribed upon the blades in ancient Faerie language. Valeane was unable to solve the riddle of the swords and lost their power.
