The '''Grey Faerie''' is [[Faerie]] in [[Neopia]] which has had her wings removed, destroying all her use in magic. Introduced to [[Neopets (website)|Neopets]] through a [[Neopedia]] article on April 18, 2003, to date there is only one known Grey Faerie (originally named '''Baelia'''), although their may be more in hiding.

As told in a the original Neopedia article, Baelia was stripped of her magical powers imprisoned by a [[Dark Faerie]] named [[Jennumara]]. She was freed by [[Tavi]], a mountain climber who tricked the lock of her cage. It is said she would regain her powers when she received a new name. | ||

On April 18, 2003 when | On April 18, 2003 when the Grey Faerie Neopedia was released, an image of a [[Bottled Faerie]] with the Grey Faerie inside was found on the servers, raising speculation about Baelia and a possible plot. This suspicion was raised when [[The Neopets Team]] revealed in a [[Neopian Times]] editorial users would "be hearing more about grey faeries soon", hinting there were many more Grey Faeries.[http://www.neopets.com/newnt/index.phtml?section=editorial&week=90] Since that time, no news about the Grey Faerie has been released, making users wonder if the plot has been abandoned or resceduled. | ||

Users have the option of [[Rainbow Pool|colouring]] their [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] ''Grey'', which is a design similar to the Grey Faerie released on April 9, 2004. Key traits of the Grey colour include red and baggy eyes, weak body movements and looking sad even when happy. Unlike the Grey Faerie, Neopets or Petpets coloured Grey do not lose their ability to use magic, as made apparent by Neopets use of [[Faerie Abilities]] in the [[Battledome]]. Because Grey is just a colour and just looks sad, a Neopets's mood isn't effected when coloured or if a ''Grey'' Petpet is attached. | Users have the option of [[Rainbow Pool|colouring]] their [[Neopet]] or [[Petpet]] ''Grey'', which is a design similar to the Grey Faerie released on April 9, 2004.
