| “ | We flourished. In the soil of those birthing woods we were molded anew. Once, we were the leftover scraps of a race nine times decimated. We had been nothing. Through our vengefulness, we became something. But when our essence is to lay waste, to obliterate, to raze, what could we become? We became the weapons that were never used against us. We became engines of the destruction we sought. We became bombs. |

| “ | It is this that makes our interactions with They-Who-Swore-To-Protect of paramount importance. Names have power, and without them, we remain trapped in this gilded cage. A Name, any Name, even a borrowed one, means we will be whole enough to leave. This is why we must interact with those who drove us to this place, and why they must replace us here. We take their Names, and thereby take their place outside. Then, and only then, can we be free. | „ |
| ~ The Faeries in "Most Beautiful Things". |
The Faeries, or the Fae, are supporting antagonists in the SCP Foundation series based on various depictions of the Fairies from folklore. They are an ancient magical race currently inhabiting the dimension of SCP-4000 after losing all of their names following their failure at destroying the Foundation.
They play important roles in the "From 120's Archives" and "Project PARAGON" canons.
History[]
(Note: Due to the lack of canon in the universe of the SCP Foundation, it is up to the reader to pick which part of the group's history is canon for their headcanon.)
Possible Origins[]
From 120's Archives[]
The Fae Empires' Six Citadels.
Around 300 000 years BCE, the Faeries alongside the Children of the Night and humanity evolved from one common ancestor, and became the three dominant species on the planet. The Faeries led by Queen Mab and her sister, Aurora, formed a vast empire that stretched throughout the world and connected all Faeries as one nation worldwide, founding six grand citadels Arlende, Brasilveen, Yefshara, Fernafaun, Neonachlar and Fata Morgana, each representing a different side of their race.
Meanwhile the Faeries took control over both humans, who were put into habitats to act as entertainment, and the Children, who were used as slaves. Eventually, the poor who had been oppressed by the aristocrats fought back under the leadership of Mab's sister, leading to Mab using her powers to help the royals win, but the Children and the humans took advantage of the chaos and decimated the royals' palaces. In the aftermath, Mab was killed after temporarily losing her powers, while the Children became the next dominant species before humanity also overthrew them with Mab's help whose spirit lived within her corpse.
Project PARAGON[]
At the beginning of time, as the two opposite forces known as "IS" and "IS NOT" created the entire universe, the very first beings that came to inhabit the newly created Earth were the Faeries formed from the remnants of IS before being followed by the human race led by Adam El Asem. During Asem's reign in the city of Audapaupadopolis, he took a star from the sky and transformed it into the powerful Crown of Apollyon.
The Faeries seeing this act as a terrible and unforgivable sin to their goddess Titania, attacked the human race, but were repelled by Asem and his sons. Refusing to let Asem get away with this, the Faeries prayed to Titania and wished to grant them a mean to bring him down for good. Titania answered by creating the Children of the Night which were sent by the Faeries to destroy Audapaupadopolis and capture Asem. The Children were successful in this task, but despite serving their purpose perfectly, the Faeries ostracized the Children due to their resemblance to humans and left them at the bottom of their cities.
After Titania found out of the Faeries' mistreatment of the Children of the Night, she betrayed the Faeries and became the Children's goddess, allowing the Children to overthrow the Faeries and take over their cities, turning the captured ones into their slaves who were used as playthings. Years following this, the Faeries were attacked by the House of Apollyon which wished to expand their territories outside of Old Europe and into the Faeries' lands. The House was able to slaughter a number of the Faeries and kidnap a fairy princess, but after being taken by them she used her magical powers to put a curse on the House, causing the kingdom's disastrous downfall. After the Flood caused by the sorcerer Noah killed most of the Children, the Faeries were able to free themselves while surviving the Flood.
The Factory[]
SCP-001:O5[]
In 1911, after the newly founded SCP Foundation took over The Factory, the Faeries tried to warn them of the horrible threat posed by The Factory, but were ignored forcing the Faeries to go to war with the Foundation and The Factory. Despite their best efforts, the Faeries were able to destroy the Foundation, and kill most of the O5 Council except for O5-1. Cornered by the Faeries and having no other choice, O5-1 was forced to make a deal with The Factory, which was possessing the corpse of James Anderson, and rewrote history, reviving the Foundation and making them the winners of the war who proceeded to retaliate by killing most of the Faeries. As a result of their defeat, the Faeries lost their true names and were forced to flee to SCP-4000 where they became trapped, unable to leave unless they got a name from someone.
SCP-001 (Ralliston's Proposal)[]
In 1908, Mab from beyond the grave manipulated James Rollander into building The Factory in Poland where her body was put inside a room. After employing a number of people to work for the Factory, Rolland began offering human sacrifices to Mab in order for her to fuel the Factory with magic. After the newly created SCP Foundation discovered the Factory around 1911 they tried to investigate it, but this eventually led to the Great factory purge in which Mab, under the guise of her sister, used her powers to slaughter most of the remaining Faeries who opposed her, while the survivors had their names taken by her. Those who were able to retain their names due to their loyalty to Mab would form the terrorist group known as the Triumviraté who wished to resurrect Mab and the Fae empire.
Possible Endings[]
SCP-001 (Ihp/Locke Proposal)[]
As a result of Site-100's manipulation, Allison Eckhart was brought into SCP-4000. This cross-test resulted in SCP-4000 and the Faeries getting the identity of Allison Eckhart, but because of Eckhart's semantic identifier, all of the Faeries inhabiting SCP-4000 entered in a quasi-comatose state, while the other Faeries who had retained their names weren't affected.
SCP-6800[]
When the Church of Maxwellism led by Saint Hedwig discovered SCP-4000 and its inhabitants, they came to the belief that the Faeries were enemies of their god WAN and so they began slaughtering them. The Maxwellists then proceeded to use the Faeries' bodies to forge an anomalous metal named Pygnite which they believed would help them reassemble their god. As they kept forging more and more Pygnite out of the Faeries, a powerful blizzard began forming on Amazon as a result of the ashes formed from the burning of the Faeries. The SCP Foundation upon discovering what the Maxwellists were doing decided to remain neutral since they did not care much about the Faeries' fate and the Maxwellists actions posed no threat to them or the Veil of Secrecy. However, as the blizzard expanded over the entire world, the Foundation and Prometheus Labs took over the Pygnite production from the Maxwellists, since the metal was able to help people resist the cold caused by the massive blizzard, and began hunting the Faeries to extinction and began vivisecting the remaining ones in order to harvest their organs and body parts as they could regenerate over time before eventually dropping a nuke within SCP-4000. This would later lead to the few remaining Faeries such as Ekhart to try and take revenge on all of the groups responsible for the decimation of their race.
GASLIGHT, GATEKEEP, GIRLBOSS/No Return[]
After former cult leader Damien Nowak, who sought to bring humanity, the Faeries and the Children of the Night to live back in harmony, was resurrected by the SCP-5572 phenomenon and became Nobody, he went to SCP-4000 where he destroyed a portion of Mab's essence which was responsible for the current state of the inhabitants. Following this accomplishment, a number of Faeries trapped within SCP-4000 had their names returned, but others remained nameless due to Mab still being alive, causing Nowak to go hunt down the rest of Mab's body. Following this, the Faeries began fighting over the election of the new leader to govern them.
When the event only known as SCP-6500 began neutralizing all of the anomalies due to the Foundation containing most of them, in the "Emissary's Path" the Foundation rechristen itself Vanguard and deliberately caused a "Broken Masquerade" scenario in order to stop SCP-6500. In the new state of the world, various Faerie communities revealed themselves to humanity, and with help of Vanguard the two races were able to coexist with each other.
Physical Appearance and Characteristics[]
The Faeries were a species scientifically known as either Homo sapiens sidhe or Trans stellaris, which mostly looked identical to normal humans, but with notable differences. As Homo sapiens sidhe the Faeries were taller than humans, possessing ethereal wings, big black eyes, pale skin, and hair colored after nature. As Trans stellaris the Faeries were smaller than humans, possessing light green skin, and six eyes positioned in two vertical columns. A subspecies of the Faeries resembled women with ears pointer than those of elves and possessing green skin.
After losing their names, the Faeries also lost their true form, resulting in them undergoing changes in physical structure when unobserved and often resembling animals. The Faeries also possessed reddish-green blood and according to a vampire working for Ambrose Restaurants in Transylvania the Faeries' blood is very sweet. In modern times a mixture of a iron and heroine named Spiegeleisen was forged as a highly addictive drug for Faeries.
The Faeries of Doèshyatoan took a variety of vastly different forms which included:
- Wild House: Faeries that perfectly resembled normal animals except for their ability of speech.
- Hearth-rakers: Small, furry creatures that protect human dwellings.
- Flower-maidens: Faeries with a wood-like body and flower hair.
- Thin-Not-Men: Asocial Faeries that appeared like pale, faceless humanoids.
- Moth Princes: Enormous nocturnal moths whose presence warned of incoming disasters.
- Summer Lanterns: Enormous predatory lightning-bugs that used their light to mislead their prey.
- Diggers: Gentle Faeries that resembled moles and lived underground.
- Big Blue Eyes: Faeries with large blue eyes.
- Skatcha-Skatcha: Annoying Faeries that are named after the sound they made.
- River-Cat: Mischievous Faeries that resembled serpentine otters.
- Too-Big-Prick: Faeries with Bovidae heads and extremely long penises, and would cry in self-pity.
- Moss-Beard-Men: Wise Faeries with rock-like body and moss hair.
- Basket-Mothers: Faeries that resembled emaciated, filthy women and kidnapped children.
- Spirit Lights: Faeries that took the form of luminescent clouds.
The ancient Faeries that lived in the Spire Star were divided in different sub-species:
- Elves: scientifically known as Sidhe Tumuli, these Faeries more closely resembled humans, lacking ethereal wings though they still possessed pointed ears and large black eyes, and their skin varied from extremely pale to deep black. They wore cloaks of pure silk composed of gold and colorful threads and leafy crows, and lived in Brasilveen.
- Undine: scientifically known as Sidhe Naiad, were Faeries who possessed more muscle and blueish skin. They wore tunics and kilts, along with leather, pelts, chainmail and armor. These Faeries were obsessed with war and fights, lived in Yefshara. After their citadel sank into the ocean, the Undine evolved to their new environment, now possessing gills, fins which used to be their wings, and transparent green skin, while glowing in various colors based on their emotions.
- Dryads and Sprites: scientifically known as Sidhe Norn Napaea, were Faeries that took care of their flora and fauna respectively. The Dryads' skin resembled wood, fungi and pome fruit, had vines, leaves and flowers for hair, and petals for wings. They could live in any harsh environment with just water, and were immune to natural poisons and toxins, though they can be easily be burned. The Sprites had animalistic characteristics, skills and mentality, along with being able to shrink their sizes. They used to live in Fernafaun.
- Pùca: scientifically known as Sidhe Stellaris, were the denizens of Neonachlar, possessing three pairs of eyes, mint green skin, colorful hair and dragonfly-like wings. They were skilled craftsmen and manufacturers, creating star-themed product and wearing regal, flowy, exotic and vibrant clothing. The Púca, or the Pixies, would later be transported into the Oneiroi reality.
- Changelings: scientifically known as Sidhe Leanan Hesperides, these Faeries appeared nearly identical to the common species, with the difference being that they had a more elegant form, porcelain-like skin, colorful eyes, silky hair, and colorful transparent enhanced wings. They wore silky suits and dresses, while always being barefooted. They lived in Fata Morgana and were regarded as the most beautiful of all Faerie species.
Powers and Abilities[]
The Faeries were highly advanced in thaumaturgy/magic and some were experienced reality benders. The Faeries could use their powers for a variety of things except for the traditional fairies. In addition, the Faeries were notorious tricksters and manipulators, being capable of outsmarting unsuspecting or careless people and easily tricking them in order to achieve their goals. As according to folklore, the Faeries were immortal as they never aged but were also highly allergic to iron which proved to be very harmful and toxic to them. According to Veronica Fitzroy the Faeries can draw power from ceremonies and rituals similar to SCP-2852. It is also said that they, or at least a subspecies of the Faeries, can inhabit both the physical and spiritual planes, and often used their powers to prey on unsuspecting people to feast on their souls.
After having lost their names, the Faeries had also lost their identities and forms associated with their stolen names and became imprisoned inside SCP-4000. As a result of losing their true appearance, the Faeries were transformed into forms that often resembled animals of humanoid shape. However, the loss of their names also allowed the Faeries to achieve nomenclative and nominative powers, allowing them to steal other people's names and identities and manipulate their newly acquired names as they wish. After stealing someone's name people would start to see the Faerie as the same individual whose name was stolen, while the original holder of the name would be forgotten and be unable to be identified or recognized. Despite acquiring a new name, the Faeries wouldn't be returned to their former selves as the names weren't their's meaning that they didn't represent the real identities of the Faeries. Because of this when interacting with the Faeries people should use inconsistent epithets in order to avoid the harmful effects of the Faeries and SCP-4000.
The Foundation managed to find a thaumaturgical loop in dealing with these issues. They sent MTF Rho-5 comprised of eight personnel all named "Ricky Vasquez" to SCP-4000 where they allowed one Faerie to steal the name. However, because the name Ricky Vazquez was a fake name that others could use, the Faerie was unable to take their place, causing mass disturbance throughout the forest. The Faeries are not the only beings capable of nomenclative magic, as the group known as the Unnamed Lords, which included Mr. Night, who own various Great Shucks, are also able to manipulate their and other's names.
The Faeries also used a magic golden powder known as Truth Glamour, which could discern truth from lies. When used in a spell, the user is able to determine if a claim stated by someone was true or false. Truth Glamour could be extracted through extraction spells and implementation on a spell of truehood. The Summer Court had been the main source of the dust, but since its dissolution Truth Glamour had diminishing.
Culture[]
Hierarchy & Structure[]
The Cycle of Seasons.
Not much is known about the social hierarchy of the Faeries. On one account it was said that the Faeries were ruled by monarchs who acted as conduits to their gods while some primogens, such as princes and princesses, led a loose governorship of their lands.
On another account, the Faeries had always been ruled over by the evil Queen Mab and her benevolent sister, both representing the Unseelie and Seelie Courts. The aristocratic Faeries who directly obeyed the queens stood above the poor ones who were treated as slaves like the ancient humans and Children of the Night. This hierarchy was soon demolished when Mab's sister led the oppressed people in a revolt against Mab. As stated by Alistair Vemhoff, the Fae were free folk who continually changed to match with the ever-changing reality.
The Fae Empire ruled by the Queen twins was founded on cultural norms, philosophical ideals, governmental power, and architectural traditions. Ancient Faerie architecture was brutalist, simplistic and monumental. The early Faeries didn't have an architecture of their own as they originally rejected the idea of living inside stationary and physical homes due to considering the environment around them their true home. As the Fae Empire grew, the Faeries began constructing buildings through the use of slaves instead of magic to display the power they held over other races, but due to lacking the concept of buildings their structures turned out to be bizarre and uncomfortable. Later on, their architecture was influenced by that of Alagadda which resulted in quite disturbing structures that would be completely lost to time. Their empire was comprised of numerous settlements, cities, villages and kingdoms, each with their own differing customs, cultures, and peoples. Out of all these areas were the six cities that were collectively known as the Spire Star. These cities were the core of the empire, held great influence over the Faeries and left a deep impact not only on the race but the entire Earth. These great cities were:
- Arlende: the supreme capital of the Empire where the queens and their court resided. It was the very first city built by the Faeries way before the establishment of the empire. It was the largest and wealthiest of all cities, where the rich indulged in pleasure, festivity and the finest attire, while the commoners either lived in the slums or were forced into slavery. Arlende became the center of the civil war that occurred between Mab and the Inventor, and as a result it was completely destroyed, leaving only ruins where Rollander would build his factory.
- Brasilveen: a center of knowledge and learning where most of the libraries, institutions, observatories, archives, universities, and museums were located. The denizens put logic and reasoning before impulse, and were governed by a royal court of magicians. The city was allied with the Inventor, and following several destructive wars it was rebuilt as Hy-Brasil.
- Yefshara: a city constructed on a layer of ice formed over the Baltic Trench. A resort city famous for its pleasure, luxury, relaxation and entertainment which included taverns, brothels, spas, and gambling houses. It was also a place for battle as there was a massive colosseum where warriors could fight for fun. The city was governed by one of Mab's daughters, and because of this the denizens sided her during the civil war. Unfortunately, during the war, the ice that held the city slowly melted, causing it to sink into the ocean. Thanks to their magical evolution, the denizens transformed into water-breathing creatures, and as result the city became a underwater metropolis where concept of lies ceased to exist. In the ensuing years, the denizens would come into contact with the Vikings, leading to the Faeries incorporating parts of the Nordic Vikings' culture into their own and renaming their city Niflheim.
- Fernafaun: the most unique of the six cities, this city rested on the Emerald Isles and no artificial buildings were erected, instead living structures were naturally grown from plants. It filled with greenhouses, farms and gardens where plant and animal life could live peacefully. Because of this, it was the place of the empire's largest farmer’s market. Its government was similar to a meritocracy, being guided by a group of respected and talented individuals led by the Grand Meadow-Keeper elected by the denizens. During the civil war, the city remained neutral, providing supplies to both sides, though secretly the citizens hoped for the Inventor to emerge victorious. Thankfully, it wasn't really affected by the war, and instead the city was transported to a pocket dimension, and throughout years its people would come into contact with humans, influencing the formation of Ireland, though for most of time the citizens were forced to retreated to their city due to invading forces.
- Neonachlar: a city that at night resembled a sparkling ocean filled with diamonds and had the most beautiful view of the night sky, with the structures comprised of transparent crystals. The lives and culture of this city centered around the stars and their goddess the Star Mother. It was governed by the Mistress of Heavenly Glamour and her daughter the Princess of Wishful Desires. During the civil war, this city was originally allied with Mab since its matriarch was a member of the evil queen's court, but the mistress was secretly a lover of the Inventor and because of this it soon switched sides. As it was about to be destroyed by Mab's forces, the Star Mother intervened and transported all of the city to the Oneiroi world where it could only be accessed through dreaming.
- Fata Morgana: the most glorious and beautiful of all cities, founded by the Inventor herself on the ocean connect with Paradim's beaches through a long massive bridge. This city was a place of creativity, beauty, and wonder, where nature and progress existed harmoniously, it thrived in art and entertainment as concert halls, theaters, art museums, resorts, exotic dining halls, and aquariums were prevalent throughout, and everyone was treated equally. It was the only city that mostly lacked Mab's corruption and even a few of her subjects revered the magnificent city. However, as the civil war was about to start, Mab wished to destroy the city due to defying her, but not wanting to invoke her people's ire she instead opted to destroy the bridge that connected it to the rest of the empire. As a result, the citizens of Fata Morgana didn't participate in the war, though they still feared the incoming threat of Mab. Wanting to protect the city she built, the Inventor gave its ruler and her lover a flower that transported all of the city to pocket dimension where the citizens could continue to live peacefully while still observing what was happening in the world. Deceased Faeries reincarnated as humans would find their way back to Fata Morgana where they would regain their previous identities, and as years passed it would reopen for the Unveiled world to see in all of its glory.
The Faeries to this day have an ontological legal system of Courts, each pertaining to the four seasons Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring, was known as the Cycle of Seasons. One could appeal to the Cycle in matters of that which IS (SCP-6471), CEASES (SCP-6401), IS NOT, and BECOMES (SCP-4000).
The inhabitants of Doèshyatoan had an oral law code known as Uganugurrit which mediated their relationship with the Faeries. This code contained calculations of the calendar and holy days, performance of hospitality rituals, requirements for gifts, appropriate behavior, environmental stewardship, and recompense for transgressions. This allowed the Faeries and humans to maintain a peaceful relationship, and help each other when dealing with common threats.
Religion[]
Not much is known about the Faeries' religion, apart from that they worshipped some deities such as the goddess of Earth Gaia, possibly SCP-4043 or SCP-6789, and the goddess of Stars and Wishes Titania. Although Gaia was the central figure in their religion, the Faeries favored Titania over her. It is implied that the Faeries also worshipped SCP-4971-▽, SCP-4812-S and SCP-INTEGER as their deities. The religion of the Sidhe in Three Portlands mostly comprised of ancestor veneration which made up 12% of the total population's religions. Alistair Vemhoff had also said that back in the day the Faeries after death preferred to cremate their bodies in order for their ashes and souls to be freed, and burying a Fae in a grave was considered an insult as it would be interpreted as them being anchored to the world forever.
According to the Fae Myths and Legends the Foundation's Department of Mythology and Folkloristics had gathered from the Sidhe Lounge, the Faeries were part of a religion known as the Children of the Stars. This religion was a form of astral worship similar to Fifthism, that of the Ortothans and the American Counterculture of the 60s. The religions claimed that the Faeries aren't to the Earth but rather they originated from the stars or a planet and were led to Earth by a messianic figure who would return and bring them back to their home in the stars, although some believe that the Faeries were literal stars that were shaped by a god. However, the prevalent school of thought in the adherents is that the Faeries' ancestors originated from a universe that preceded the current one but it still exists as the Oneiroi world, as a result the Faeries regarded the Oneirois as divine. Symbolism used by the religion depicted the Faeries as moths being led into a star or nebula by their deity who bears resemblance to David Bowie. This religion had been mostly lost through time but it is slowly being revitalized by Pyotr Xilgwyn who formed a commune which preach for love and regularly meditate, but are regarded by most Faeries as an outdated cult.
Language[]
The Faeries spoke an unknown language referred to as Fae with the word "Triumviraté" translating to "we will prevail", but were also fluent in old versions of Irish, Welsh, and Gaelic. The Sidhe in Three Portlands spoke Modern Celtic, while SCP-2932-A spoke Quechuan. There was a dialect referred to as New Old Fae, in which the word springazgeyne roughly meant Spring Again and was the antonym of fe-eal-len.
The Faeries inhabiting Anxeqaamat apparently spoke the language of Icheya which was similar to Bragh Do, Ng!tu and T'áátsíí.
Relationship with other anomalous factions[]
The Faeries are hostile to the SCP Foundation due to them working with The Factory to massacre them and take away their names. However, most Foundation personnel don't understand this hatred due to the aforementioned events being classified information that was kept secret from them by the higher-ups.
During an occult war happening in the dimension of Avalon in the year 1884, the Sidhe population, with the help of the British Occult Service, evacuated the dimension and made a deal with a genius loci in order to create the interdimensional city-state of Three Portlands to act as their new home.
The Global Occult Coalition has made a treaty with the Faeries named the Athurian Charter that neither race would harm the other unless one attacked. When the Foundation captured one of the Faeries' unicorns, the GOC broke inside the site containing the unicorn in order to not upset the Faeries.
When the Unusual Incidents Unit discovered the island of Hy-Brasil, the then-current king allowed the organization to establish its headquarters on the island.
Although referring to the Faeries as "friends" and together crafting the Blue Lily Chains as a sign of friendship, a large number of the Serpent's Hand regard them as hostile misanthropic monsters who hate humanity for no real reason and believe that they deserved to have their names lost. Despite this, a Fairy couple found refuge in the Wanderer's Library where they were seemingly welcomed.
Elewynn and Erelynn once helped the Man with the Upside-Down Face of Herman Fuller's Circus of the Disquieting in saving one of the poor circus members from the wrath of Herman Fuller. In gratitude, Manny repayed them by getting "Dr. Jaspers" stolen name from The Factory with the help of Isabel Wondertainment V and Iris Dark.
The former subordinates of Miss Moon from the interdimensional kingdom of Alagadda would often travel to SCP-4000 in order to be free from the evil of the Kingdom and interact with the Faeries. The Hanged King himself regarded the Faeries as disgusting creatures.
The Triumviraté once opened a false restaurant in SCP-5373 under the guise of the Ambrose Restaurants franchise in order to trap unsuspecting Faeries and bring them to SCP-4000.
After the Faeries arrived in the Greenleaf region of Corbenic where they formed their nation of Wielka Altana, the Three Moons Initiative decided to leave the nation be and not establish any form of communication after learning of their hostile nature and that they were under the protection of the Corbenese goddess, Konarwidz, although they would have diplomatic discussions when in cases it became necessary. However, in SCP-6944 it's revealed that the Fairies had secretly spied on the Initiative to gather more information on a version of SCP Foundation.
During the Irish War of Independence, several Faeries from Hy-Brasil who were suffering from the war decided to flee to America alongside Irish immigrants by joining the Irish-American criminal organization known as Chicago's North Side Gang which benefited from their nomenclative magic. However, the organization came into conflict with another criminal organization the Chicago Spirit, which led to the Faerie members being killed by the Chicago Spirit's leader Richard Chappell who expressed disgust towards them.
A Fae named Queen Maven acted as a muse for a SWJC? commune in Lichtenberg. After she was kidnapped by the Fourth Reich of the Obskuakorps the SWJC? went to war with them to take her back.
Many myths and legends describe how the Faeries and collaborated with various demons from Hell due to sharing some similarities. Although it is possible that it was untrue, because of this prejudice countless Faeries were slain which drove them to make deals with demons that resulted in the Faeries becoming their servants.
The cyborg Faerie named S'amh Armh worked for the Primordial mercenary group.
Three members of Parawatch once encountered a Faerie appearing as an androgynous Proprietor who inhabited various abandoned barbershops where it not only offered a free haircut but also changed their bodies to how they wished deep inside.
Goldbaker-Reinz Insurance Group Ltd. doesn't want to have anything to do with Nomenclative manipulators as they are the leading cause of identity fraud. On the other hand, the insurance company provided purchased coverage to victims of these manipulators, using the Akashic Identity Hash to locate these victims.
After the Foundation managed to banish a large number of the Chaos Insurgency to SCP-4000, several Faeries stole all of the Insurgencts' names while others that remained would attack the now nameless operatives.
SCPs Associated with the Faeries[]
- SCP-001 (Bright's Proposal): The Factory created by James Anderson, which produces anomalous objects and feeds on the suffering of its workers. When the Faeries attempted to destroy it, The Factory made a deal with O5-1 and rewrote reality into making the Foundation kill most of the Faeries and taking away their names which were written on scrolls currently stored within one of The Factory's facilities.
- SCP-001 (Ralliston's Proposal): A version of the Factory built by James Rollander north of Krakōw, Poland above the ancient ruins belonging to the Faeries. Inside the Factory was a room designated SCP-001-B which contained Queen Mab's body designated SCP-001-C who was fueled by human sacrifices. When the Faeries attempted to destroy Mab she instead manipulated the events resulting in the slaughter of the Faeries and took away the names of the survivors.
- SCP-001-B (Another djkaktus Proposal): An entity resembling Winnie the Pooh created by Administrator Milne's reality bending son Christopher. The entity proceeded to create various other smaller entities designated SCP-001-B-1 resembling the Faeries which served to bring honey for SCP-001-B to feast on.
- SCP-562: A phenomenon occurring on internet chat sites in which some of the Faeries use several accounts to convince people to participate in their party. If subjects agree to join the party then the Faeries would transport them to their dimension in which times passes faster than on Earth, causing attendants to partake in the party for the rest of their lives and after dying of old age their bodies would be found near forests.
- SCP-615-J: A Faerie resembling a middle-aged Caucasian man with long matted hair and wearing oversized Florida Marlins jersey, and previously inhabited SCP-4000 before being later banned. He would abuse the Faeries rules to steal valuable stuff from people in order to gain enough money to buy bear.
- SCP-649: A match box of blue tipped matches that when lit it emits coldness and snow instead of heat and sparkles, and can cause illusions in the snowy mists it manifests. SCP-5925 held another identical box of these matches.
- SCP-860: A blue key which when used to open any door, the opened door would lead to a dimension designated SCP-860-1 which resembled a forest surrounded with blue mist and containing various creatures and phenomena. This key was previously under the possession of the Faeries who would use it to go hunting inside SCP-860-1.
- SCP-953: A sadistic kumiho who enjoys killing people and can transform into a nine-tailed fox. It is possible that she is a member of a race of Faeries since an elder Taoist was able to imprison her by swallowing her essence which was analogous to her name.
- SCP-1000: The entire species of Bigfoot known as the Children of the Night. They were created by Titania at the behest of the Faeries to bring down Adam El Asem. However, as the Faeries mistreated them, the Children fought back, overthrowing the Faeries the same way humanity would overthrow them.
- SCP-1323: A dimension which can only be accessed at various points in the British counties. This dimension contains a fairground consisting of an exhibition hall, a livestock pavilion a sideshow, a variety of information and ticket kiosks, food stalls, and wandering entertainers.

Despite the warnings of the Faeries the Overseer did exactly as the entity wished but as he refused to give it his real name the entity instead used his deceased son's name to use for its plan. The Overseer eventually sacrificed himself to trap the entity within his mind and keep it from destroying reality.
- SCP-6001: A microscopic portal to a parallel universe in which the Foundation collaborated with the major groups of interest and established worldwide peace.

When the U.S. Department of Defense's occult branch PENTAGRAM found out about the existence of SCP-6672 they created SCP-6672-1, a hypercomplex biological eigenweapon derived from the thaumaturgy of the Children of the Night which was used against deities, in order to defend themselves from 6672's attacks. However, when the two weapons clashed with one another, it resulted in SCP-6672-C becoming imbued with the Children's magic and leading to the consciousnesses transforming into a deity referred to as SCP-6672-Ω who decided to use their powers to do good in the world.
- SCP-6692: An anomaly affecting the words used to describe weapons of attacks used by the Foundation.

It is unknown what happened to them after the Foundation defeated the threat of SCP-6789.
- SCP-6800: A useful metal-like substance named Pygnite resembling pig iron made out of the faeries who still retain their sentience even after being turned into metal. When the Church of Maxwellism discovered SCP-4000 they supposedly heard the voice of WAN and came to the belief that the faeries were enemies to their god which lead them beginning to slaughter the faeries and turning their remains into Pygnite which they saw as holy and instrumental to the reconstruction of WAN. After the Foundation discovered what the Church of Maxwellism was doing following the mysterious appearance and expansion of the massive blizzard in Amazon designated SCP-6800-1, which was created from the vaporized water produced by the metal, they decided to collaborate with the Maxwellists and together began hunting the faeries to extinction in order to produce more Pygnite.

- SCP-7440: A bunker in the Ireland Wood Forest, England, created by the Faeries in the 18th century. It was comprised of five floors, each imbued with dangerous thaumaturgic and nomenclative hazards, with the first floor deliberately looking abandoned to dissuade enemies from searching for lower floors, while the other floors have a spatial anomaly that made them bigger in the inside in order to make enough room for the Faeries to feel at home. The Faeries that occupied the bunker were eventually all killed by the precursors of the Foundation's MTF Alpha-1.
- UNNAMED: A Faerie girl from Three Portlands who for the summer vacation went to Hy-Brasil with her family. However, during the festival of Lughnasa, a friend of hers died after being burned alive due to being stuck inside the burning bull effigy which was set on fire by the girl as part of the rite. Feeling guilty for what had happened, she ran away and in desperation she casted a spell on herself that made people unable to learn her true name, Kate.
- SCP-7665: A spherical treehouse near Gorizia, Italy in which people inside can look at SCP-4000 through the windows outside.
- SCP-7704: A magical dome of fire sitting on the Alboran seabed inhabited a being who can grant wishes to anyone that enters the dome. This being, designated SCP-7704-1, claims to have been a knight who had served the Spanish kingdom in past, participating in the Sack of Mahon in 1535 from which he was saved by Mab, but was then betrayed by her, causing him to transform into a Faerie while his estranged daughter lost her life to the evil Queen.
- SCP-7904: A magical large straw figure of a Swedish Yule Goat, named Gävlebocken, constructed annually on the first day of Advent in Gävle by a group of anomalous individuals with a grudge against the Foundation. It is indestructible and can only be destroyed by setting it on fire, but if not destroyed it would open a portal inside itself for the Faeries to leave SCP-4000 and cause havoc once freed.
- SCP-8120: A ritual created by occultist Lord Arthur Hadfield that utilized a collection of 169 occult artifacts, designated SCP-8120-A, to guide sailors to a pocket dimension, designated SCP-8120-B, that supposedly held an item that could be used to defeat Mab. The pocket dimension appeared like a magical reality resembling a sea with island and vibrant sky. To keep people from entering inside, it would force the intruders to face against their painful past. The pocket dimension was inhabited by the ghost of a Faerie who guarded the crowns of the Inventor and Mab which would allow the wearer to inherit the Earth.
- SCP-8225: A pocket dimension consisting of a vast near infinite land with a variable geography and a warm-summer Mediterranean climate, inhabited by various human species known as the Eshannu, coexisting with an array of nonhuman beings such as the Faeries who mostly live in the forested region of Atsàbyaru. The only way to access the dimension was through a Rosen-Fortune Bridge which required the pilgrims to abstain from consuming meat, alcohol, tobacco and engaging in sexual activity for three days before starting their journey on any westbound road, and walk for around a month during which they were to only consume water and a psychotropic fungus.
- SCP-8400: A noncorporeal Faerie entity that manifests himself on Earth by possessing bodies made out of birch bark, appearing like a humanoid with a deer skull for a head, while any document's content that gives him a name would be erased. Every five years he appears near populated areas to destroy them, liquifying any object or matter that comes across him to allow him to pass through, until the day was over at which his body crumbled. Having lost his name, the entity is unable to sustain himself on Earth, instead using his anger over not having a name to keep his body together, and is desperately searching for his name in order to properly exist again. Foundation folklorist Dr. Delaney Martlet would play with him a truth game of Chestnuts to keep him from causing any more damage. They played the game three times, in Kenmare of Ireland, Daleport of New England and near the Old Birch Tree, where in the latter the entity finally regained his name, that being Beithe.
- SCP-8899: A mnemonic and gnostic eigenweapon resembling a yew tree, created from a cutting taken from the Wanderer's Library. Capable of altering and rewriting all knowledge and memory on Earth, the Faeries created the weapon, intending to stultify humans and SCP-1000, who were currently fighting a war instigated by the Faeries. After its completion, the weapon was stolen by the human tribe leader, Ninmah, who used it to render SCP-1000 intellectually suppressed. The psychic trauma experienced by SCP-1000 killed a majority of them and resulted in accelerated plant growth worldwide, an event which later became known as the Day of Flowers. The weapon was later used by the Administrator to create the Veil following the Sixth Occult War.
- PE679/RE245/EM285: A meteoric iron named "Thunderbolt Iron" by Marshall, Carter and Dark Ltd. which could prevent the Faeries to move past it and nullified their magic. MC&D sought to sell it to various clinics, but when one of the clients, Cardoso Industria, began using it to prevent eco-terrorist Faeries from interfering with their deforestation of Amazon, the Faeries threatened MC&D about the consequences of this, forcing the company to cut ties with Cardoso and surrender the remaining iron to them as a sign of peace.
- KTE-6990-Mendel-Nimuebusterchild: A virus created by a Faerie terroristic group that can infect both animals and humans. Infected humans would transform into animals during the full moon and alongside the infected animals attack any human or human-related species.
- SPC-2615: A leprechaun capable of sustaining himself by inducing hallucinations in humans. He has been modified by the Shark Punching Center into inducing hallucinations of monstrous sharks to make its operatives more compliant, though this causes him great pain and starvation.
- Anomaly 306: A species of trees that grow in wet and magical areas and convert copper or iron absorbed from the soil into silver which coats their trunk and leaves and is immune to magic. Although allergic to it, the Kingdom of Hy-Brasil used the trees' metal to defend itself from various threats, such as the Aos Sí, Nuckelavee and Neamh-Mairbh. Later, as The Factory began mass producing the metal, the Faeries attacked it, prompting the Church of the Broken God to retaliate by banishing them to SCP-4000.
- SCP-PL-253: The KFC restaurant chain which had lost its name after suing a Faerie who owned a restaurant called "Częstochowa Fried Chicken".
- SCP-PL-259: A Fae who lived during the 13th century and was known publicly as Genghis Khan. He was a distant descendant of Queen Mab and united the Mongol tribes to form the Mongol Empire, which also became known as the Second Fae Empire. Following his death the empire crumbled but in modern times was brought back to life by GoI-120. However, he was left with brain damage, and could only revive the dead, causing him to form an army of undead soldiers and animals, designated SCP-PL-259-2, before being taken down by the Foundation and the GOC who bound him through thaumaturgical means.
- SCP-116-IT: A pocket-dimension accessible through three gateways of Ancient Greece architecture located below sea level in Messina, Trapani and Portopalo di Capo, Italy, and contained three iron pillars placed in a triangular shape one of which was badly damaged and being held by a being. According to plaque found within the being is a Faerie who had been punished for betrayal, but further study showed he was actually a human known as the legendary Cola Pesce.

Trivia[]
- The importance the names have for the Faeries seem to be based on the myths surrounding the concept of the true name. If someone found out about a fairy's true name then they would have full control over the fairy, but if the fairy found out a human's true name the fairy in turn would have full power over the human.
- SCP-4000 is also based on the Wonderland from Alice in Wonderland and the Land of Oz from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
- Protocol Eshu which details instructions in dealing with SCP-4000 and the Faeries seems to be named after Eshu from mythology.
- In the SCP Wiki the terms Fairies and Faeries are used to refer to the same species, with Faeries being used more often. However, these terms actually refer to two different type of beings. The term Fairies, which originated from Latin word "fatum" meaning "fate", referred to benevolent type of spirits who didn't wish any harm on humans, while Faeries, which originated from Gaelic word "fear shidhe" meaning "'man of the shee", referred to malevolent creatures who would kidnap human children and turn them into their slaves.
- In SCP-6125, the Foundation had classified the reality of SCP-4000 as part of the Realm of Hyrial, the first layer of the universe, or the Second Hytoth, and were able to use a portal of SCP-6125-Ω to access SCP-4000.
- In "Multiverse Threat Recovery Log: SCP-6936", which details various prohibited spells from different universes, describes a spell known as "Hands of the Butcher" which caused mechanical limbs to emerge from a portal harvest useful material from the universe it originated where the interdimensional group known as the "Black Priestesses of WAN" composed of Maxwellist Black Queens took over the world to harvest more Pygnite from the Faeries.
- When the Foundation used SCP-978 to take a photo of a Faerie, the picture showed the Faerie stealing the photographer's name, which became true as the photographer lost his name to that Faerie as a result of using SCP-978 within SCP-4000.
- According to the "List of Common Anomalous Misconceptions", the Faeries' history coincidentally resembled the works of J. R. R. Tolkien, giving rise to the rumors that he based his stories on them.
- According to SCP-7084, the Faeries also pay taxes within SCP-4000.
- In an alternate reality where the Veil of Secrecy was never established and magic usage was the norm, the Faeries still had their names and lived normal lives. When SCP-8079, a Scranton Reality Anchor designed to neutralize all anomalies, was transported to this reality and began causing mass destruction, the Faeries attempted to fix the problem, only for their names to be taken away.
- When UBU arrived on earth, the faeries sensing the threat closed SCP-4000 and left a parchment note reading "Good Luck!" in the entryway.
