The mythic stories of fairies often have them playing tricks on humans, and that ain’t far from the truth. Fairies very rarely flutter about sprinkling magic dust on people and granting wishes. Naughty fairies is redundant.

But people have weird ideas about naughty fairies as well. There’s two schools of thought about them these days: the lore, and the lure.
Naughty Fairy Lore
Yeah, there’s plenty of stories about fairies who play tricks, steal sugar, and tie your hair in knots when you’re sleeping. Tiny footprints in the butter and all that. Eh. The stories don’t do justice to the reality, if you ask me. Can’t stand fairies!
Melanie told me about mosquitos. (They don’t bother dragons.. our hide’s too thick.) Fairies are like that. Naughty fairies. Yeah.
Naughty Fairy Lure
Do a search on Google for naughty fairies and, chances are, you’ll end up with a bunch of women wearing fabric and glitter wings strapped to their back and not much else. Porn for the pimply teens clutching 10-sided dice in their parents’ basements?
Hmm…. Anyway.
Naughty fairies exist. Fairy = naughty fairy. And most of them don’t look that great before several mugs of ale.

Birds of Myth and Legend – The Phoenix
Most people are aware of the amazing regenerative properties of the phoenix, or firebird. This mystical bird was described in many ancient cultures from Phonecia, Egypt, ancient China, and even Africa. It was used in Christianity as a symbol of the rebirth and ressurection of Jesus Christ as well. This bird is usually described as gold and red. It lives for 1,000 years and then bursts into flames and dies to be reborn from the ashes.
