'''Faeries''' are magical female creatures which inhabit [[Neopia]], added to [[Neopets]] on January 14, 2000. 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]].
[[Image:Faerie quest hub news 2011.jpg|right|frame|Just a few of the faeries that inhabit Neopia.  From left to right: an [[Air Faerie]], [[Delina]], [[Queen Fyora]], a [[Water Faerie]], and a [[Light Faerie]].]]


Faeries are sometimes viewed as items when they are imprisoned in a bottle. Captured by [[Balthazar]] or some other faerie hunter, these faeries give your [[Neopets]] special abilities depending on the pet's stats as a way of thanks for freeing them.
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.  
Some faeries, refered to as '''Spell Faeries''', can bless a users [[Neopet]] with magical abilities. A pet must be strong enough to control the faeries spells though, or the faerie will fly away if the Neopet is inexperienced. Each of the 6 different Faeries can grant a different set of abilities.


Spell Faeries can be found in a number of places, Although you will rarely find a wild spell faerie because they are extremely hard to catch and need a quick and witty catcher. If a Neopet is quick enough, they may be able to catch a wild faerie. You will often find spell faeries caught in a magic bottle, possibly from the actions of [[Balthazar]]. These caught spell faeries yearn to be released back into the wild with their friends, and in return for releasing them, will grant a Neopet magical powers. However, if the Neopet is not strong enough or experienced enough, the the faerie will not be able to bless it and will fly away. Bottled Faeries can be found around Neopia as a [[Random Event]], or simply bought from [[shop]]s, the [[Auction House]] or [[Trading Post]].
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.

|}


==Faerie Quest==
There are also several unique faeries that do not simply belong to an elemental type:
''Main Article:'' [[Faerie Quest]]


The more powerful Faeries of Neopia will sometimes come forward to users or Neopets and ask them to get something for them, reaward the most adventurous and courageous pets with special gifts. Those who choose to comply with the Faeries demands will need to find that certain item and return to her. On completion of the quest, the Faerie will decide which of your pets is worthy of her reward.
{|align=center
|-valign=top
|width=200|
*[[Aethia]], the Battle Faerie
*[[Fyora]], the Faerie Queen
*[[Jhuidah]], the Island Faerie
|width=200|

*[[Mira]], the Space Faerie
*[[Taelia]], the Snow Faerie
|width=200|
*The [[Library Faerie]]
*The [[Soup Faerie]]
*The [[Tooth 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.

*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.
