Pixies are magical beings that spread whimsy and inspiration. There are hundreds of types of pixies in the world.[1] They are one of the nine original clans of magic who helped create the first Charmed Ones.
Overview[]
According to Harry Greenwood, pixies are well known to be kind and benevolent throughout the magical world, due to their innate power to spread whimsy and inspiration. While witches and demons are immune to a pixie's dust, other magical beings, such as Whitelighters, and normal humans are not.
Pixie Fledging Ceremony[]
When young pixies are mature enough to gain their wings, they perform a ceremony. They would put a token inside a box and whisper a prayer to the goddess of flight. Once the ritual is complete, the pixie's wings will materialize.[2]
Pixionaries[]
Pixionaries are books that detail about pixies of all kinds, and detail about pixie traps, which can be made using sweet things and shiny objects. A pixie can be lured into the trap when those who set the trap giggle in delight.

Trivia[]
- A pixie is a mythical creature of British folklore. The origin of the word "pixie" is uncertain; it could have come from the Swedish dialectal "pyske," meaning "small fairy."
- Pixies in the reboot series are similar to the fairies of the original series, where the Charmed Ones first met a fairy in the third season, and they helped protect her from a group of trolls with a little girl named Kate.
- While in the first season of the reboot, pixies are shown to take on their true forms (small, glowing creatures with large transparent wings) in order to fly. They resemble fast-flying balls of yellow light and glittery pixie dust. In the fourth season, despite there being numerous pixies in various episodes (Chloe, Annie, and Daphne Periwinkle, as well as the pixies present at the one year memorial honoring the victims of the Faction), none of them are shown taking on their true forms and are even shown to be able to manifest their wings to fly without taking on this form which leads to inconsistencies with how the pixies are portrayed in the first season. Interestingly, in the fourth season, none of them are shown generating pixie dust either, which is supposed to be a common trait amongst pixies.
- Pixies are one of the suits in the game of Elvin Poker.
- It is unknown if pixies in general were one of the nine original clans of magic who helped create the first Charmed Ones, or if it was more specifically a clan of woodland pixies.
