{{ | {{Beta}}<blockquote>''Delicate, frail and fleeting, fairies boast higher magical prowess, evasion, and unmatched speed compared to humans. They hold high resistance to nearly all elements. However, their physical fragility limits them from wearing gear heavier than 1s, making bolstering defenses a challenge. A single substantial attack could place them in peril.''</blockquote> | ||

Diminutive, otherworldly beings. They have an intrinsic connection with magical forces, and even the rare few who shun magic can count on their keen senses and charming appearance. Their fragile bodies make them prey to anything that could catch them, but catching a fairy is no easy task. Players seeking to be less fragile casters should consider being an elea, nefu or lich instead. | Diminutive, otherworldly beings.

While they receive bonuses to DV and Perfect Evasion for physical attack, they are an innately unreliable form of defense. | ||
Fairies are considerably improved from how they were in Elona. While they are slightly slower than they were compared the baseline of a Yerles, they have gained innate levitation in Elin, and the way resistances factor into damage now make them much stronger than their Elona resistances. Furthermore, the stamina-based fatal hit protection mechanic introduced in Elin allows fairies to survive death blows so long as they have stamina, making their play somewhat more forgiving. Nevertheless, while fairies are more kindly treated in Elin than in Elona, they should still not be up in harm's way. | Fairies are considerably improved from how they were in Elona.

One might consider fairies to be good at ranged combat given their dexterity and perception scores, but finding suitable weapons for them are a problem given the equipment weight limit of 1s. Ether is a high-damage material suited for fairies, but difficult to come by. It's of note that throwing weapons are not limited by the 1s weight limitation, so that is an option. | One might consider fairies to be good at ranged combat given their dexterity and perception scores, but finding suitable weapons for them are a problem given the equipment weight limit of 1s.

However, the executioner, who uses mana as a second heart and becomes stronger as his strength decreases, is an exceptionally good match for the fairy. | ||
