There are 6 basic Faeries, each corresponding to one of the 6 magical elements of Neopia: [[Air Faerie]], [[Dark Faerie]], [[Earth Faerie]], [[Fire Faerie]], [[Light Faerie]], and [[Water Faerie]].
:''This article is about the beings. For the [[colour]], see [[Faerie (colour)]].''


The Faeries of Neopia decided to award the most adventurous and courageous pets with special gifts. If you think your pet is up to one of their challenges, then it may well be granted extra experience, strength, health, immense riches, or even a stash of rare items. All you need to do is complete their challenge. Each one requires a certain item which you must find and then return to them in order to complete your quest. On completion of your Quest, the Faerie will decide which of your pets is worthy of her reward.

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. Faeries are [[Wikipedia:Humanoid|humanoid]] in appearance and have slightly pointed ears. With the exception of the [[Wikipedia:Mermaid|mermaid]]-like [[Water Faerie]]s, all faeries have a pair of wings on their back that give them the ability to fly. If these wings are removed, the Faerie loses its power and becomes a [[Grey Faerie]].


=Spell Faerie=
Although they can be found in many places across [[Neopia]], faeries are most readily encountered in [[Faerieland]], a kingdom ruled over by [[Fyora]] the Faerie Queen. Some faeries set quests for players, rewarding them for retrieving certain items. Players may also encounter Bottled Faeries, Faeries that have been captured by [[Balthazar]], that will [[abilities|bless]] a Neopet if freed by them.


Spell faeries are tiny magical creatures that live in [[Neopia]]. Meeting one is said to be very lucky indeed, as they can bless your pets with all sorts of powers and abilities. A pet must be strong enough to control the faeries spells though, so if your pet is inexperienced then the faerie may just fly away. There are many different types of faeries with differing powers, abilities and temperaments. Faeries range from the elusive [[Air Faerie]] to the playful [[Water Faerie]]s that inhibit the waters, lakes and streams of [[Neopia]].
As magical creatures, Faeries are capable of changing their size from being larger than most Neopets to being small enough to be caught in a bottle. Their size is also indicative of their power: large faeries tend to be more powerful faeries. Faeries have played roles as heroes and villains Neopian history: for example, the [[Space Faerie]] saved Neopia from [[Dr. Sloth]]'s [[Arrival of Virtupets|mutation ray]], Queen Fyora imprisoned [[The Darkest Faerie]] for a thousand years, [[Psellia]] rescued [[Jeran]] during the [[Battle for Meridell]]. Furthermore, as discovered during the course of [[The Faeries' Ruin]] plot, the magic of the faeries keeps mysterious dark wraiths from invading the land.  


Spell Faeries can be found in a number of places. Although you will rarely find a wild spell faerie (if your pet is quick enough, they may be able to catch wild faeries) because they are extremely hard to catch and need a quick and witty catcher. You will often find caught bottled up spell faeries in the magic shops and in auctions, trading posts and shops. These caught spell faeries yearn to be released back into the wild with their friends so in return, if you release them, they will grant your pet magical powers. However, if your pet is not strong enough or not experienced enough, then the faerie will not be able to bless it and will fly away.
==Types==
The most common faeries are associated with one of six elements:

*[[Fyora]], the Faerie Queen
*[[Jhuidah]], the Island Faerie

*[[Taelia]], the Snow Faerie

Lastly, when a faerie losses her wings and her magical powers, she becomes a [[Grey Faerie]].
 
==Bottled Faeries==
{{main|Bottled Faerie}}
[[Image:Bottlefaerie fire.gif|right]]
Sometimes, an unfortunate faerie will be captured by [[Balthazar]] the bounty hunter and imprisoned in a small glass bottle.  These bottled faeries act as tradable [[item]]s on the [[Neopets]] website.  They are sold at [[Neopian Magic Shop|Kauvara's Magic Shop]] and are also sometimes given out as prizes for certain [[game]]s, such as the [[Alien Aisha Vending Machine]].  If a [[Neopet]] releases a faerie from its bottle prison, the newly freed faerie will grant blessings to the Neopet that freed it.  These blessings can then be used to purchase [[abilities]] at [http://www.neopets.com/dome/abilities.phtml Aethia's Ability Academy].
 
==Faerie Quests==
:''Main Article: [[Faerie Quest]]''
 
Faeries sometimes give out [[quests]] to users via [[random events]].  During these quests, the requesting faerie will ask the user to find them a specific [[item]] without using the [[Shop Wizard]] or the [[Super Shop Wizard]].  If the user brings the faerie the requested item, the faerie will reward them for their hard work.  There are currently thirteen type of faeries that give out quests.  Each type of faerie requests a different kind of item and gives out a different reward.
 
In addition to this, users can also obtain separate, on-demand quests from [[Jhudora's Bluff|Jhudora]], [[Illusen's Glade|Illusen]], and the [[Snow Faerie's Quest|Taelia]].  All quests obtained from these three faeries have strict time limits, but they also allow the use of the Shop Wizard.


*Famous Faeries: [[Fyora]], [[The Soup Faerie]]
==Trivia==
*Games: [[Faerie Caves II - Fyora's Quest]], [[Faerie Crossword]] [[Faerie Bubbles]], [[Faerie Cloud Racers]]
*Early faerie artwork did not have faces - although [[The Neopets Team]] explained that faeries have always had faces, they just hadn't always drawn them.
