The '''Faeries''' are an all-female race of magical creatures that inhabit [[Neopia]]. They were first introduced to the [[Neopets]] website on January 14, 2000. Faeires are [[Wikipedia:Humanoid|humanoid]] in appearance and have slightly pointed ears. With the exception of the [[Wikipedia:Mermaid|mermaid]]-like [[Water Faerie]]s and the wingless [[Grey Faerie]], all faeires have a pair of wings on their back that give them the ability to fly. While most faeires appear to be roughly the size of a normal human, [[TNT]] has stated that faeries can use their magic to shrink at will, becoming small enough to fit inside of a bottle. This shrinking power was explictly demonstracted by the [[The Four Faeries|Four Faeires]] in [[Neoquest II]]. Faeires are known to be very long lived, or perhaps even immortal. Queen Fyora, for example, is at least one thousand years old. | |||
==Faerie types== | |||
Within the world of Neopets, there are six types of faeires, each of which correspond to one of the six magical elements of Neopia: | |||

==Bottled Faeries== | |||
Faeries are sometimes captured by [[Balthazar]] or some other faerie hunter and imprisoned in a bottle. Bottled faeries act as [[item]]s and can be traded. If a [[Neopet]] releases one of these faeries, they may be granted a special faerie ability. There are six sets of abilities that can be granted, one for each type of spell faerie, and a pet must be of a high enough level to control the ability the faerie is trying to grant, or else the faerie will just fly away. these abilities become useful for fighting in the [[Battledome]]. | Faeries are sometimes captured by [[Balthazar]] or some other faerie hunter and imprisoned in a bottle.

As well as the more common spell faerie, there are also six extra-powerful versions of each faerie called the Uber Faeries. They, along with the [[Faerie Queen]], the [[Fountain Faerie]], and the [[Space Faerie]], grant [[quests]] to users, asking for specific items in return for altering a pet's stats. Originally, users could request to do a Faerie Quest but because people abused the privilege they were changed into random events on October 2nd, 2000. | As well as the more common spell faerie, there are also six extra-powerful versions of each faerie called the Uber Faeries.
