[[File:CAS Fairy icon.png|left]]'''Fairies''' are a playable [[life state]] that arewere introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural]]''. (Technically, [[Faerie Queen Mara]], an [[NPC]] vendor from ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', was a fairy, but Fairy was not a playable life state.) FairiesThey first appeared in the official announcement trailer for the expansion.<ref name="Official Trailer">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BbSSWzNpVU Official Trailer]</ref> Before they were officially announcedthat, there was a patch ([[The Sims 3/Patch 32|1.32]]), which accidentally leaked visual effects files of fairy wings.<ref name="SimsVIP">[http://simsvip.com/?page_id=8081 SimsVIP Supernatural Spoilers] post</ref>
 
==Fairies in previous games==
[[Faerie Queen Mara]], an [[NPC]] vendor from ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', and the [[Summerdream family]] from ''[[The Sims 2]],'' could be considered fairies as they feature physical traits such as pointy ears and - in the case of Mara - wings. However, since the life state was not introduced yet, these are purely aesthetic, and at most, play a role in storytelling.
 
==Overview==
Line 17 ⟶ 20:
*A Sim can become a fairy by getting a chance to '''receive a Fairy opportunity''' when '''searching for fairies''' in the Arboretum.
*There is an elixir known as the '''''Bottled Blessing of the Fae''''' which can turn a normal Sim into a fairy.
**A Sim with level 10 of [[Alchemy]] skill can mix this elixir at the alchemy station by having red toadstools, sunstone gem and fairy damseldust in their inventory.
**Check an elixir consignment shop as the shop may have the elixir, but not on a daily basis.
 
Line 43 ⟶ 46:
 
==Abilities==
Fairies live longer than normal Sims just like [[werewolf|werewolves]] and [[vampire]]s. Like vampires, young adult and adult fairies have a [[lifespan]] that is five times as long as that of a normal Sim, whereas young adult and adult werewolves have a lifetime that is 1.5 times as long. They move at an increased rate as they fly around. They shrink to their natural form to perform interactions that they can't do when normal-sized. They are "natural born tricksters", tricking Sims using different interactions.
 
Fairies are very good gardeners. They have benefits in [[Gardening (The Sims 3)|Gardening]]. They can also build their [[Charisma]] skill at a faster rate.
Line 52 ⟶ 55:
 
==Magic==
Fairies, like witches, have a magic meter that depletes every time they use their abilities. It can be found under their headshot when they're selected in the Sim's skewer. It informs the player how much remaining magic power their fairy has.
Fairies are able to use magic for good or bad. When starting out, they will have a very limited set of magical abilities. As they gain their ''Fairy Magic'' skill, they unlock new abilities and benefits slowly.
 
As their magic powers drain, fairies should maintain the magic meter in order to continuously use their abilities. They can slowly wait for a while to refill the meter or they can fill their meter at a faster rate by drinking Pollen Punch, riding the train in a train set or relaxing in a Fairy House. They can also instantly replenish their meter to full by drinking the ''Essence of Magic'' [[elixir]]. If all of their magic power is used up, it will take normally six hours to refill completely, enabling them to use magic again. During these six hours, they will have a negative moodlet. <!-- It is unknown if they cannot refill at a faster rate and instantly replenish. -->
Magic is not infinite, so when fairies use magic, they begin to lose magic powers. They have a magic meter which is similar to the meter [[witch]]es have. The meter can be found under a fairy's avatar in the game interface. The meter shows how much magic power they have left.
 
===Fairy tricks, traps and power===
As their magic powers drain, fairies should maintain the magic meter in order to continuously use their abilities. They can slowly wait for a while to refill the meter or they can fill their meter at a faster rate by drinking Pollen Punch, riding the train in a train set or relaxing in a Fairy House. They can also instantly replenish their meter to full by drinking the ''Essence of Magic'' [[elixir]].
Fairies are able to use magic for good or bad. When starting out, they will have a very limited set of magical abilities. As they gain their ''Fairy Magic'' skill, they unlock new abilities and benefits slowly. Although fairies are "natural born tricksters", not every trick will be successful. Sometimes, their tricks will fail, causing some negative effect to either the fairy, the affected Sims, or both.
 
====Powers====
If all of their magic power is used up, it will take normally six hours to refill completely, enabling them to use magic again. During these six hours, they will have a negative moodlet. <!-- It is unknown if they cannot refill at a faster rate and instantly replenish. -->
* '''(Level 0)''' ''I Can Fly:'' self interaction, that boosts the [[Fun]] motive.
* '''(Level 1)''' ''Flight of Felicity:'' grants another Sim to fly like a fairy instead of walking, as well enabling "I Can Fly" interaction.
* '''(Level 3)''' ''Fairy Repair:'' allows the fairies to repair objects with ease, possible without being electrocuted.{{confirm}}
* '''(Level 4)''' ''Bloom:'' an interaction that accelerate the growth of a plant to its next stage. Sometimes can backfire and cause weed to grow on the harvestable plant or even kill the plant. Regardless of which instance, the ability can also be used to resurrect the plant back to life.
 
====Fairy trap====
Although fairies are "natural born tricksters", not every trick will be successful. Sometimes, their tricks will fail, causing some negative effect to either the fairy, the affected Sims, or both.
* '''(Level 2)''' ''Hair Dye in Shower:'' fairy trapping the targeted shower to briefly dye a showering Sim's hair with tacky color.
* '''(Level 2)''' ''Overflowing Toilet:'' fairy trapping the toilet to overflow when flushed.
* '''(Level 4)''' ''Outdoor trashcan:'' fairy trapping the outdoor trashcan causes garbage to blast off onto the rummaging Sim, leaving trash piles laying around it nearby.
* '''(Level 6)''' ''Sofas & loveseats:'' fairy trapping these seats will make the sitting Sim Sleepy and get them to nap on the trapped object.
* '''(Level 8)''' ''Mailbox:'' the fairy will set a fairy trap on the object, which will release a swarm of bees on the Sim that retrieves mail from the mailbox.
* '''(Level 9)''' ''LLAMA:'' Sim traveling with it will be transported to a random location instead.
 
====Fairy trick====
Fairies use auras which affect themselves and nearby Sims. There are several different auras, which have different effects. Some of these are:
* '''(Level 0)''' ''Chattering Teeth''.
*Aura of Soothing - Gives a positive moodlet
* '''(Level 0)''' ''Hot Head''.
*Aura of Creativity - Creative skills are easier to learn, and are learned faster
* '''(Level 4)''' ''Tummy Twister''.
*Aura of Body and Mind - Improves the rate at which Sims learn skills related to body or mind
* '''(Level 6)''' ''Skivvies:'' As the name suggests, casting it causes the Sim to change temporarily into humiliating underwear and in response embarrassingly try cover themselves up.
* '''(Level 7)''' ''Gold and Toads:'' Grants the "Gold and Toad" moodlet to victim of the prank, which will have the Sim frequently cough out either only a toad or fairy coin. As they collect the item it will accumulate over time in their inventory. This cannot be casted on Sims that are in their werewolf form.
* '''(Level 10)''' ''Inner Beauty:'' Projecting onto another Sim will change their facial features to zany deformed face. This effect lasts until Inner Beauty moodlet expires, but will be prolonged for another 24 hours for every mean interaction the Sim initiates. This cannot be casted on Sims that are in their werewolf form.
 
==Auras==
Fairies use auras which affect themselves and nearby Sims. There are several different auras, which have different effects. Some of theseThese are:
* '''(Level 0)''' ''Aura of Soothing -:'' Gives a positive moodlet
* '''(Level 1)''' ''Aura of Creativity:'' - Creative skills are easier to learn, and are learned faster
* '''(Level 3)''' ''Aura of Body and Mind:'' - Improves the rate at which Sims learn skills related to body or mind
 
If ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons|Seasons]]'' is also installed, fairies can cast Reviving Sprinkle using the [[Weather Stone]], which turns rain into flowers. All the gardens in the current world will be magically watered and fertilized, vanishing weeds off and revived dead plants. At the end of Reviving Sprinkle, a beautiful rainbow can be seen across the sky.
Line 76 ⟶ 99:
 
Fairies can give their fairy dust to Sims which can be used to remove the zombie's curse or give another Sim the ability to float.
 
Fairies also have their very own social interactions, being able to "Tell A Fairy Tale", "Talk About Flowers" and "Brag About Playing Pranks" to other Sims.
 
;To other Fairies
Fairies can also play round by the ''Fairy Frolic'' interaction. Similar to the ''Playful Pester'' interaction, it is performed by two fairies  when they  turn into their natural forms and play around.
 
==Offspring==
Line 100 ⟶ 125:
*Baby fairies don't have wings.
*There are several new moodlets related to fairies. Some show level of magic warnings, some are related to the [[Lunar Cycle]], and some to fairy interactions.
*The [[Summerdream family]] could be considered part of the fairies, because [[Oberon Summerdream|Oberon]] and [[Titania Summerdream]] are both fairies, and all of their ancestors have similar physical appearances, such as the elf ears. However, fairy is not a playable life state in ''[[The Sims 2]]''
*Like Vampires, Fairies age up 5 times slower than normal Sims.
*Fairies may transform to their natural form - small butterfly - and fulfill their needs in the Fairy House or Fairy Castle, like sleeping and eating (through drinking pollen punch). They may also throw fairy parties and [[WooHoo]] with other fairies.
*Fairies in ''Supernatural'' seem to have some references to fairies in ''True Blood''. For example, vampires get a "buzz" after feeding from a fairy like in ''True Blood''.
*There is one action a Sim can use on a Fairy called "Imply mother was a glowbug."
*In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', therewhile arefairies decorativethemselves fairydo orbsnot thatappear emitin laughinggame soundsas ina life state nor as NPC, a tiny fairy can be seen flying around [[Sylvan Glade]] appearing from time to time and even giggling. However, thethey hiddenonly lotserve inas [[Willowdecoration Creek]]and cannot be interacted with.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Spooky Stuff]]'' there is a fairy costume and regular Sims can dress like a Fairy.
*In ''[[The Sims 4: Realm of Magic]]'', [[spellcaster]]s can have non-anthropomorphic fairies as [[familiar]]s. They bear a strong resemblance to the fairies seen in the [[Wikipedia:Legend of Zelda|Legend of Zelda]] series.
*When a fairy is in their natural form, small bell-like jingles will play.
*If a Sim has the  '''''Queen/King of the Fae''''' Lifetime reward, fairies in their natural forms will fly around the Sim with their signature bells jingling, usually in 2s or 3s.
