The Fae, also known as Fairies or Faeries, were a class of magical humanoids, often winged and pointy-eared.
History
In the Strange and Wonderful House
The Strange and Wonderful Room's Anteroom was lit by a “chandelier” whose light source was actually a group of fairies who sat on the fixture. Their falling fairy dust created a magical pillar of cold white fire in the centre of the room, into which guests to the House could step to find themselves transported to the room of their choice. (PROSE: Our Strange and Wonderful House: The Anteroom)
In Abúi's universe
In one universe, fairies, or more accurately “faeries”, were naturally small, frisbee-sized pixies, but could shift to human size using “size glamours”. One, Abúi, who ended up stranded out of her home dimension. Abúi's kind of Fairies had dragonflike-like wings, sharp teeth and large, pointy ears. They were less concerned with nudity than most humans, although they still wore clothing as a default. Abúi's body was covered in intricate blue tattoos, although it is unclear if this was representative of general Fairy fashion or a particular quirk of hers. (COMIC: Incognito)
In the world of Little Noodlington
When trying to get Abúi back home, Sven Allestädes once accidentally landed her and Tash Spicer in a distinct fantasy world, in a magical forest that was part of a kingdom centred on the city of Little Noodlington. The people of Little Noodlington were exclusively magical humanoids of various species. This included a fairy, Jai-Jai. Although outwardly similar to Abúi's kind, there were a number of differences between the two which Jai-Jai soon took notice of. Jai-Jai's wings were somewhat different, and she had a greater knowledge of magic, thinking that Abúi was not “a proper fairy” for not understanding some “obvious” principles about spellcasting. Unlike Abúi, she called herself a “fairy”, as opposed to a “faerie”. Jai-Jai displayed the ability to turn into a small glowing orb of light while flying, and to create an invisible “wall of force” with a wave of her hands, although it was not strong enough to withstand the sheer physical force of a raging Troll. Jai-Jai acknowledged that her best friend Sprite, a nymph, was a superior spellcaster to herself. (COMIC: Enchanted)
In the Prime Universe
In the Prime Universe, “faeries” up to mischief were among the beings one might meet in the Forest. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)
In the Collapsed Cosmos
In the Collapsed Cosmos, there existed a realm of Faerie, home to many different kinds of members of the Fair Folk. They were ruled by a Queen of Faerie who was a former lover of Jenny Everywhere. These fae were of human size as a default, and did not usually seem to have wings, but had specific traits, such as hearing sound frequences that no other beings, mortal or immortal, could perceive. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)

Alistair Neezley once claimed that one of his adventures saw him being cursed by a “cheesecake fairy”. (PROSE: The Winter Quests)
