Lunaria

Entity Designation: FAIRY

Entity Class: Dungeon-Linked Fae – Type III Threat Level: Minimal (☑ Passive | ☑ Capable | ☐ Hostile) Zone Range: Dungeon Floors 900–1500 (Primary Nexus: Floor 1256-EZ) Height: 3'0" – 4'9" Weight: 40 – 89 lbs Affiliation: Treeborn Collective, Fairy Mother Network ✦ Overview:

Fairies are a small, humanoid race of dungeon-dwelling entities loosely aligned with elemental, fae, or plant-based energies. While colloquially described as “tiny magical girls with wings,” they are neither insectoid nor ethereal—fairies are fully corporeal, sentient beings more biologically aligned with flora than fauna. Despite their size, they are potent spellcasters and natural healers.

Though peaceful by nature, fairies are deeply reactive to suffering and environmental trauma. They have a strong internal compulsion to help those in need, regardless of personal risk, making them some of the dungeon’s most compassionate—yet tragically self-destructive—entities. ✦ Primary Habitat:

Floors: Dungeon Levels 900–1500

Core Settlement: Floor 1256-EZ – The Fairy City-State (unofficial name: Lusterleaf)

Fairies rarely appear outside this band except as wanderers or emissaries.

Reports confirm that all fairies originate from Floor 1256-EZ, with the city acting as both a cultural capital and a reproductive hub. ✦ Earthside Incidents:

Fairy translocation to Earth is rare and usually accidental. Results vary:

Scenario 1: Urban/High-Distress Zones

Fairies attempt to help the homeless, elderly, and sick.
Result: Collapse from exhaustion or death by pollution exposure.
Fairies are biologically incapable of filtering industrial toxins. Prolonged exposure leads to terminal shutdown.

Scenario 2: Remote/Natural Regions

Fairies survive longer (weeks to months), but eventually fall ill due to cumulative exposure to environmental pollutants.
Long-term survival on Earth is deemed non-viable.

✦ Temperament:

Alignment: Neutral-Good

Disposition: Peaceful, empathetic, extremely emotionally driven

Combat Behavior: Avoidant unless cornered or defending others

Fairies are not pacifists—they will fight if forced, but conflict causes them psychological strain. In most cases, they flee goblin encounters rather than engage, despite being capable of obliterating such threats with area magic. ✦ Biology:

Diet: Primarily herbivorous; capable of limited meat consumption (unenthusiastic)

Reproduction: Non-sexual. Despite possessing humanoid genitalia and the capacity for intimacy, fairies cannot reproduce biologically

Lifecycle: When a fairy dies, it returns to the Fairy Mother Tree as a seed-like soul. Over time, this soul is reborn via magical germination

Autopsies suggest that fairies are more closely related to magical plants than traditional mammals. Upon death, they petrify into twisted wooden remains, sometimes used as magical reagents by less ethical alchemists. ✦ Tameability:

Method Success Rate

Rescue from danger: Very High

Offer of food or aid: High

Direct party invitation: Moderate

Fairies practically tame themselves, drawn to kindness and need. Injured, starving, or lost adventurers often find themselves being nursed back to health by a helpful, sparkly forest mage. Once attached, a fairy becomes a loyal, powerful party support unit. Just don’t trust her with your credit card—she will donate everything to a phishing scam in Nigeria "because he seemed like he really needed help." ✦ Leadership Structure:

Matriarch: The Fairy Mother
A powerful, tree-bound entity located in the heart of Floor 1256-EZ. All fairies are born from her, and all souls return to her. She is revered as a living goddess and rarely communicates directly.

Cultural Role: Fairy emissaries will occasionally clash with Reapers over soul custody—Reapers collect for processing, while fairies believe in soul restoration. These confrontations are usually nonviolent but deeply passive-aggressive.

✦ Domestication Attempt Report:

Attempts to farm fairies on the surface have failed catastrophically. When Iron Crown researchers attempted to transplant Fairy Seeds to Earth:

Result: Growth of Pixies, a corrupted offshoot species

Pixies are flighty, hostile, magical, and bratty

Tameable under strict conditions, but extremely sassy

Some adventurers report “tomboy” variants with milder attitudes

✦ Quotes from Research Logs:

“We lost five fairies in a single week in New York. One tried to hug a guy doing meth in the subway. She died smiling.”
—UN Surface Contact Unit 14, Incident Report #A-14

“You haven’t lived until you’ve had a fairy hug your dying body and say, ‘Don’t worry, I’ll protect you!’ and then nuke thirty goblins with a spell shaped like a rainbow.”
—Adventurer Blog Excerpt, ‘Life in the Dungeon’

“Pixies are just fairies with anger issues and energy drink addiction.”
—Iron Crown Post-Mortem Cultivation Memo
