Come now, you hadn't really thought that were just things such as Vampires and Werewolves in the world, now did you? There are many other sorts of creatures too as well. And so myself and Wish have decided to present you with the choice of introducing two new kinds of creatures.
Pixies and Faeries. This is up to you guys and so feel free to voice anything you may think, this will also be a vote. To decide whether or not we shall include these two creatures. We do have some information about these two creatures for you though, so below here we are going to explain a few things for yew. ^--^
The Pixies
Green skin, no wings, immortal, and glamour themselves to look like humans. The one thing they cannot change about themselves in the glamour forms would be their eyes, that are generally slits in the pupils, of either a bright color or a darker brown or black.
Doctors have claimed that when humans have this that it is just a defect, that sometimes occurs when the child is born. Though, of course, it has never been explained in full depth.
Things you should know: Pixies were once highly looked upon, in the kingdom of faeries, they were viewed as creatures that were highly respectable. That is, until they get the idea to create these rings, rings that the faeries seemed to dislike, to cover the appearence of who they really were, for the pixies and faeries to bring themselves out into the human world. Where metal and iron could very well be the death of them.
They did not want this change, as to where the Pixies did, and so they did the only thing they really thought that they could do. The court council decided to banish the pixies. Destroying their wings so that they would no longer have the ability to fly, which also meant that the pixies were now outsiders of a place that they had once called their home.
There were a few faeries that did join them in the making of the rings, probably the faeries that did most of the creation of the rings in the first place. They would be the shapers, the ones that can put energy into an object, or a spell. Because of them, the spells on the rings stayed intact.
They were once one of the higher rankings, and now they are at the bottom of the food chain, and while few remain in the kingdom that was once also theirs. Many have moved into the human world, after forging the medal and the iron together, and discovering spells to keep themselves protected. They have managed to survive in the human world for a few centuries now.
The Faeries
Contrary to popular belief, Faeries are not index finger sized creatures that flit around on gossamer wings. They are in fact perfectly normal sized, if not the tiniest bit on the short side. They are immortal like the Pixies, have green tinted skin like Pixies, odd eyes like Pixies, but unlike the Pixies they have the ability of flight. The wings of a faerie varies from one to the other, seeing as they decide what sort of wings they will have at their coming of age ceremony. It is the magic in the wings, not necessarily the wings themselves, that allows them to fly. Also, they have the ability to glamour themselves in order to look just like humans, although this can only last for certain periods of time and even when they are glamoured their eyes still remain the way they were before, just like Pixies.
Things you should know
Faeries are, for the most part, extremely vain, not to mention greedy. They are very cutthroat when it comes to their politics, and they have a caste system. At the top is their Queen, beneath her are the Nobles, beneath them are the Guardians, beneath that are the Shapers, and on the bottom are the Growers. Faeries do not have a plethora of magical abilities. They have one ability which is endowed upon them at birth, and depending on that power they get put in a caste. The Growers, those who make up the bottom caste, can manipulate plant life to varying degrees. Generally speaking they can make things grow faster, or grow in certain ways. Shapers are the faerie craftsman, with their Gift pertaining to the ability to shape objects. They are particularly good with glass work. Guardians have protective powers, such as the ability to create shields that can expand or the ability to move quicker than an average faerie. In addition, some Guardians have control over elements such as air, fire, earth or water. Nobles only have elemental abilities, and the gift of the Queen is unknown. Where exactly the Faerie Kingdom is no one knows. It is most likely underground seeing as they are incredibly allergic to the iron creations of man, to the point where it could poison and kill them. For some reason faeries have started to pop up, although it is rare for them to do so and they do not have the best knowledge of human customs.
Depending on the votes, is shall be finalized by this thursday. ^-^
