Well we have a Dragons, and werewolves.

But this one is even weirder, Just what makes something "Fae" in nature. In apperance I find very little to compare them together "even the pointy ears and bug wings are not constant features"

The Furre Fairy Mab from DMFA comic strip

Red Cap.

But that's more like gnomes, isn't it? It looks a little like the norwegian "nisse".

Red Cap: A malevolent goblin, redcaps are easily distinguishable for their namesake red hat and fiery red eyes. Their caps are red because they dip them in the blood of their human victims. Redcaps wears iron boots, but are swift on their feet. They reside in castles and watchtowers along the English-Scottish border, however, they move their residence often to avoid detection. Redcaps have sharp eagle's talons with which they kill humans. Short and stock, redcaps have long white beards and look like old men. Like any goblin, all that is needed to repel them is the use of holy words.

Yikes. That's nowhere near our little'uns. Although they have the same red hats (pointy in our case). I wonder if there's a connection?

I include red caps and fairies in the same family tree: "Little People."

There's a pic somewhere that shows a tree with different branches occupied by different species, but I can't find it.

EDIT: It's an illustration by Robert Ingpen.

The Red cap is an evil Goblin, This means one of the little people. Which raises the question is being little a requirement for faedom? The Mab above is human sized but has the wings, antenna, and powers of a fairy. The same can be said of Fairy Queens and vampiric Fairies like the Dearg-Due.

I have a hard copy of the illustration...but I need a scanner to digitize it.

The Bendith Y Mamau ("The Mothers' Blessing") is a rather unpleasant clan of Welsh fairies. They are ugly creatures, and sometimes regarded as the result of interbreeding between goblins and fairies. They steal children and substitute them for their own ugly ones, called Crimbils. Through the intervention of a witch, the parents can regain the stolen child, who will remember nothing of its time with the Bendith Y Mamau, except for a vague recollection of sweet music.

The Cluricaun are a solitary fairy who rob wine cellars and ride sheep and shepherds dogs the live long night-found panting and mud covered in the morning.

true form of the character
http://www.missmab.com/comics/Vol240.htm

A legendary pagan deity who roams the woodlands of the British Isles and Europe. He usually is depicted as a horned man peering out of a mask of foliage, usually the sacred oak. He is known by other names such as "Green Jack, "Jack-in-the-Green" and "Green George." He represents spirits of trees, plants and foliage. It is believed he has rain making powers to foster livestock with lush meadows. He was frequently depicted in medieval art, including church decorations.

Green George, as he is usually called in spring Pagan rites, is represented by a young man dressed head to foot in greenery, who leads the festival procession. In various festivals, Green George, or an effigy of him, is dunked in a river or pond to ensure that there will be enough rain to make the meadows and pastures green. It is also believed by some the Green Man shares an affinity with the forest-dwelling fairies since green is the fairy color. In some locals of the British Isles the fairies are called "Greenies" and "Greencoaties." In the myth of "The Fairy Children," there appears two fairy children, a brother and a sister, who have green skin and claim to be of a race with green skin.

In German (Teutonic) folklore, kobolds are spirits who dwell in mines and who like to torment humans. They are tricksters and not inherently evil. Like Robin Goodfellow, they may either help or harass humans, for unknown reasons. In the 16th and the 17th century, they were usually depicted on paintings as little devils with a conical hat, pointy shoes, a hairy tail, and bald feet instead of hands. In the class of fairy-like beings, they are considered to be the most dangerous and most ugly. Some sources suggest that kobolds are related to the Brownies.

The Mimis are rock spirits of Arnhem Land in northern Australia. They are very thin creatures, for they live in the tiny crevices of rocks. Because they are so thin and fragile, they keep a close watch on the weather for a strong wind might blow them away, or even break their bones if they emerge from their hiding places. Mimis only leave their homes to seek food, usually roots, but a man passing by might be eaten by them.

Hobbit: a three foot tall human species whose fossil remains were discovered this last year in Indonesia. prooving that little people have existed with in human history and the locals believe that these fossils prove that their little people lore is true. Funny how science ignores any mythical creature until someone stumbles on proof of it.

Pixie

The intelligence of these creatures have never been determined either way. They definately have some intelligence though. They are a form of Fae which tend to be hedonistic, taking a sometimes sadistic pleasure in playing cruel jokes on passerby and anyone in the vicinity. Savage tribes are particularly vulnerable to these forest pests, but they hit travellers, and are often found in the Sanctuaries. They vary in size from the size of a needle, to the size of a small cat.

A pixie.

Huli-Jing "fox fairy"
actually its a bad translation as the name actually means Exquisit fox. Its a mystical fox demon "covered better in the Ktsune thread"

What does this mean?

There is another Thread in this section called Kitsune and other fox demons that covers this type of being better. The shadow is the Huli-Jing and it is possessing the woman.

Not official, but rather one comic strip writer's idea of what Fae arein relation to their own fictional universe
