The Darkest Faerie was the main antagonist of the game. The game opened with [[Jerdana's Orb]] falling from the neck of the Darkest Faerie statue, and she escaped her imprisonment. She washed up on the shores of [[Meridell]], and set out to get revenge on Fyora. She started by possessing [[Illusen]] and went on to taint the entirety of the kingdom - save for Tormund, who had been given a charm to protect him. | The Darkest Faerie was the main antagonist and eponymous character of the game.

She surprised Fyora and took over the flying city - the only people immune from her magic were Roberta, who had been given an amulet like Tormund, and an Aisha the Darkest Faerie thought looked familiar - in fact, she was Jerdana. Roberta escaped Faerieland and united with Tor, recognising that he had the companion amulet to hers. | ||
The Darkest Faerie employed the [[Gelert Assassin]] to pursue them, but he was unable to stop them reaching Fyora's wand, which had been used to imprison the Darkest Faerie the first time around. When the pair brought the wand back to Faerieland, however, The Darkest Faerie disguised herself as Fyora so that they would give her the wand, then used it to trap the real Faerie Queen in a bottle. Tormund and Roberta escaped through a portal to Altador, a city it was believed the Darkest Faerie had destroyed before her imprisonment. | The Darkest Faerie employed the [[Gelert Assassin]] to pursue them, but he was unable to stop them reaching Fyora's wand, which had been used to imprison the Darkest Faerie the first time around.

The heroes returned from Altador as the Darkest Faerie started the city falling over Meridell. Using Jerdana's Orb, which they had recovered while in Altador, they turned her back to stone and freed Fyora, who used her wand to make Faerieland fly again and save both cities. The Darkest Faerie's statue was kept in Faerieland, where Fyora could keep a close eye on her. | The heroes returned from Altador as the Darkest Faerie started the city falling over Meridell.

During the Altador Plot, users were guided by a series of puzzles to restore the city's history, which had been concealed by Jerdana to prevent the Darkest Faerie rewriting it, with herself as sole founder. These puzzles involved finding constellations representing each of the twelve founding heroes, include the Darkest Faerie herself. The clue to her constellation is the first one to be found, and is in the markings on the door of to the [[Restive Tomb]]. | During the Altador Plot, users were guided by a series of puzzles to restore the city's history, which had been concealed by Jerdana to prevent the Darkest Faerie rewriting it, with herself as sole founder.
