Aethia

The current Battle Faerie. Weilder of The sword of flame and the sword of ice. The previous Battle Faerie, Valeane, was unable to solve the riddle of the swords and lost their power.

Always in the battledome looking for a challenger. She will reward pets with great fighting abilities.

In olden times of war this magical creature was said to help inexperienced pets learn to defend themselves and on rare occasions teach the strongest ones a lesson they would never forget.

Of course not, there wasn't a hero, there was heroine, battle faerie, warrior princess. Forged in the heat of battle, this faerie had to defend and save many innocent lives. Who knows, in legendary times, she suddenly disappeared never to be seen again. It is said that she will appear to a world when danger looms on the horizon, who knows what is in stall for neopia.

This exquisite creature is not as defenseless as she may seem for she is the legendary battle faerie. In olden times of war a magical creature was said to help inexperienced pets learn to defend themselves and on rare occasions teach the strongest ones a lesson they would never forget. Once peace was brought to Neopia the Battle Faerie disappeared. Nobody knew what happened to this strange creature, it was thought that she simply flew off to another realm where battles were still raging.

So why has this mystical Battle mistress returned? Maybe she can sense the arrival of the battledome and wishes to once more resume her role as chief battle advisor to Neopets. Maybe she heard a small pets cry for help and decided to start teaching the younger Neopets some attack and defense skills, maybe she just felt like traveling....who knows. But one thing is for sure. You will be seeing a lot more of the Battle Faerie in the future and if you are very lucky she may even guide your pets to be supreme fighters.

The Battle Faerie can take on many guises and is just as happy on land as in water. She mainly adopts this appearance when visiting secretive sea creatures such as the Peophin and the Kiko.

The Battle Faerie's trusty steed, Legacy, is rumored to have once been a normal Uni, but in return for its loyalty the Battle Faerie transformed him into the splendid Stallion he is today. When the Faerie is traveling long distances across strange or dangerous lands, you may see Legacy in battle mode, decked out in his almost impenetrable armour. If you see him or the Battle Faerie in full armour, be very wary. This means she is ready to fight and even her sparring blows can seriously damage an unarmed pet.

Battle Faerie appreciation day was on...?
