Introduction:
A Pixie Fairy is a small wingless humanoid Fey monster less than half a standard brick length or smaller in height. Their skin can vary in color from pale pastels to full deep saturated colors. Pixie Fairies excel at stealth and are notorious tricksters, pranksters, and thieves. They have more pronounced facial features with large eyes and long ears. Additional unique features can be tusks, fangs, horns, and antlers. Pixie Fairies are notorious for stealing sweets. Although they seem harmless their pranks can sometimes be cruel or dangerous.
Investigation:
We spent hours sitting on the log, the music of the Satyr band kept us completely enchanted. Our fixation was interrupted when a curious crow landed near us. It started squawking and hopping around while bobbing its head. The crow dancing to the music made us laugh. It took us awhile to notice two odd details about the dancing crow. It had 6 eyes, an unusually high number of eyes for a bird, and it wore a small ornate saddle. As our curiosity started to reach a peak, a small voice spoke besides us, “He’s always a show off when he’s the distraction.”
Observations:
A small pale green Fey sat beside us. She wore a black and white mask with two antlers growing from the top of her head and a wild mane of white hair flowing around them. Our suspicions were immediately raised having recognized the Fey as a Pixie Fairy. Pixie Fairies are infamous pranksters and thieves. To disarm our suspicious unease the fairy removed her mask and introduced herself, “I’m the good fairy Robin Marcak of the free people. And this dancing master is my trusted partner, Shay Sool Carow, the Six Eye Crow.” My assistant and I relaxed a little as Fairy Robin Marcak ate some sweets. Alarmed, we recognized the wrappers from Beatrice’s candy shop of The Royal Academy of Sweets. My assistant had been keen on saving some to share with his family. “Hey!” my assistant exclaimed as he searched through his bag, “Those are our sweets, give them back!” She slapped down her black and white mask over her face. “The ruse is up!” Robin Marcak yelled, “Fly Shay, fly!” The pixie grabbed up the uneaten sweets and leapt from the log landing in the small ornate saddle on the back of the Six Eye Crow.
Conclusion:
Shay Sool Carow the Six Eye Crow, with the good fairy Robin Marcak laughing taunts at us, flew past right in front of us. My assistant and I jumped to our feet attempting to grab the little thief before she could escape with our sweets. We lunged forward only to fall forward onto our faces with a loud thud. Our shoes had been tied together! Robin Marcak’s mocking laughter echoed around us. We lifted our heads up just in time to see Shay Sool Carow let out a caw opening a small portal between dimensions allowing the pair to escape. We’d been had by the infamous Pixie Fairy prankster and thief, Robin Marcak.
