Fairy

When Papilio was on his deathbed, he created his legacy to live among his soul, hoping that one day, magic will once again be the dominant presence of the universe. At first they were the Papilios, now however, they are their own creatures now. However, after the unification, they decided to make fairies the official name for their species, previously only a term known to Mainland and the Dark Country.   Fairies are considered being of magic, having born and practicing magic throughout their lives, their best would be considered one of the most powerful species in the universe   Alternate Names:
Papilies, Ales-sapiens   Papilio-unum in latin literally means 'butterfly one'

Basic Information

Anatomy

Their anatomy are only fixed in their magical system but the rest are designed to be able to adapt to the environment in Papiliosidus but after the recent evolution of fairies, their adaptations seem to be fixed after 1,000,000 generations.   They have a head, a pair of eyes, one nose, one mouth, a pair of ears, a pair of hands, a body, a pair of legs and 5 fingers. They have the muscular, respiratory, skeletal, circulatory and auroral systems that follow their body shape.   Their previous incarnations used have wings according to the Magical Warrior levels and Umbras, Kampos are a sub-race of the Water Country which have tails that changes magically into legs on land and with webs between three fingers, Ignis have horns that grows out of their Temporal bone.   They are also known to be more resilient and immune to almost any ailments though they do still have illnesses.   They do not require that much oxygen in their body hence why their blood is multicolored but most commonly seen as greyish blue. But that doesn't mean they can survive completely without it.   Their vital organs are not like many species, for one, they have multiple vital spots so it is harder to kill one by just effecting a vital spot for the core and the head of the fairy is most important though one can survive without the other, two is required for a fairy to be in normal condition.   Their pain receptors however are not in their circulatory system but in their auroral system though in the circulatory system, the eyes and the top most and bottom most of the fairy is most sensitive, depending on the fairy some other parts as well. Meaning physically, they do not feel pain unless it's at the soles of their feet, their scalp or aurorally touched though pain and pleasure can travel the same way from each other, sometimes even both.   There are multiple anatomy each race has however, for example, winged fairies have pain and pleasure receptors, same with the tail and horns though horns are much more sturdier being made up of purely bone rather than fairy flesh.   They only have one form of business as water is usually used up for many things, including energy and supporting that sort of business hence why they take a little longer in the loo.

Biological Traits

Like humans, they age and wrinkle after time, however their body stops getting better or weaker at the age of 160 unless they age with some ailments or disabilities, the oldest fairy to live without being a Magical Warrior is a Seamstress and 201 years old, she died before her anniversary of her birth, which they now call birthdays.   Their height increases with age and stops when they reach around 20 but can also be still growing until they are 30, their weight is also dependent on their consumption of food and their digestive rate, their consumption of magic also factors into it.   Auras always stay the same until they die but their reproductive parts can change through the course of their life, though fairies have no need of one, there are those who follow some species they may like to study... or well they have the spell so why not keep it because... you know   Usually fairies don't evolve into any other sub-species anymore unless they went into another planet without magic to protect themselves, there can be slight changes. Though it is not related to fairy anatomy, Gretal seemed to have broken a spell her mother put on her in order to hide from the fairies her Hubiin DNA, the spell however seem to have become more obvious with age.   There are feminine and masculine genders though no fairy has a specific gender.   Due to the fact that the sun and moon does not move, fairies has been exposed to a lot of radiation from the sun hence making them a little more radiation and heat immune due to evolution using magic.   Due to Papiliosidus, sun and moon not moving, time is measured by ticks or time is measured by the other planets or the stars.

Genetics and Reproduction

They do not have reproduction parts hence why attacking them in the nether regions is rather pointless, but they are able to conjure one if they have the spell to do so (though it'd be rather embarrassing to try and explain it to your teacher or your deity).   The way fairies reproduce is through their auroral system, if both partners consent and are inviting of each other, they are able to produce an offspring. Their offspring would contain a part of both parent's DNA, this parts are usually monitored as doctors are trying to figure out if an offspring from two fairies but from different race can produce a Death Bringer. The submissive partner will be the one to produce the egg needed for the next part, usually this is decided before their auras merge and break off.   Fairy's offspring comes in the form of an egg first, some couples may try to figure out what kind of egg shell it is due to some superstition about the fate of the child but that hasn't been 100% accurate or confirmed, some fairies do believe it.   During the first month of the egg, it is required that it stay warm in order to survive, though mother fairies don't sit on them until they nice and cosy (they are literally as heavy if not more heavy than humans, that'll be child murder), they wrap them up in a blanket and hug the egg gently towards their chest, where most of their body warmth will be.   After the first month, if it moves, the baby fairy is already developing in the egg or they can have a personal doctor check for any movement in the egg or signs of a strong and stable aura. After that, it is able to survive without hugging, in fact, make it too hot and it's -again- child murder.   During the 10 months of these days, the parents will of course have to make sure it doesn't roll away or from a high place, relatives or god parents or teachers -even their doctor if they are fond of them- will bless the egg with their magic to keep it strong and healthy, it also helps to easily find or give an affinity that is close to home, during this time however is also a time where curses can get to the child too, it's important that they prevent that from happening so they don't usually invite estranged relatives or strangers near their egg.   After 10 months is usually the period where the young might hatch, depends on the size and the movement of the egg during those 11 months, they should have enough strength to break through and nibble on their egg shell. If not, there might be something wrong with the shell or the young which they might need to pry the egg open in the hospital for.   There will be no complications if there is something wrong with the shell, the family might have to check on their house or the mother though, if however, the egg shell showed no complications and is easily broken out of, there might be something wrong with the young. Usually muscle, brain, breathing, auroral or bone deficiency or just plain laziness on the baby's part, if all the test for the deficiency are negative... then yeah, the young is just lazy.

Growth Rate & Stages

Fairies grow slower than humans, one human year is only 6 months for fairies, though their perspective of time should be the same so their speed should be normally the same if they do not have super speed.   Hatchling: 0 to 6 months
Child: 7 months to 12 years old
Pre-teen: 13 years old to 15 years old
Early-Teen: 16 years old to 19 years old
Teenager: 20 years old to 29 years old
Young Adult: 30 years old to 90 years old
Adult: 91 years old to 170 years old
Middle Age: 171 years old to 200 years old
Senior Years: 201 years old to 230 years old
Magical Warrior Years: 231 years old and above   Usually the older the fairy gets, the stronger and mentally stronger they become, hence youngsters become a more common target for enemies from the inside and the outside, but the older they get the weaker they become physically too, only most powerful fairies have their magic to make up for that.

Ecology and Habitats

The original habitats of Papilios are plains or forests but now fairies can apparently adapt to their surroundings at near death so long as it within perimeters of their biology and magic.   The fairies however are like humans, though probably more adaptable in the wild without technology, they probably can't survive without magic seeing has it is part of their DNA.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Varies among each fairy, some may be vegetarian, some just eat meat or eat specific things only though fairies are omnivores, their diet it usually up to them. Water is a necessary resource for them more so than humans.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

Depending on the affinity and race, there are different ways a fairy can sense things around them.   Idems has a natural talent for sensing aura if they are able to control their aura well enough to quieten it and feel the other auras around them. Though they do use their eyes, nose, ears and mouth to sense things, they mostly uses their aura.

Civilization and Culture

Beauty Ideals

The most unique is considered the most beautiful hence why the Kings and Queens, Princesses, Prince and Nobles are mostly magical warriors, they also believe the mind to be the most beautiful trait of a fairy.

Gender Ideals

There are no specific gender ideals among the fairies and some country might vary from each other but the main six countries at least want the same thing from both genders, Beautiful, Noble, Elegant, Humble and probably Rich.

Courtship Ideals

There are many types, most common being, romantic dates, quality time and effort along with maybe a little verbal or physical sparring, depending on which part of Papiliosidus they are from.

Relationship Ideals

The of course love, trust and time on both sides, well there are those weird relationships we won't go into details here but yes those do exist there since things cannot be perfect.   Aura compatibility is important to a fairy, if their aura isn't too compatible or opposites, there is still a chance for them to link as their aura usually follows their emotions for each other.

Culture and Cultural Heritage

Papilio's spells exists and still are used in their daily lives today, though they are considered technologically advanced, they still have culture from their past, the Sky Country being the one with the most culturally preserved countries, having kept their tradition of coming of age battles and arena fighting from billions of years ago.

Common Customs, Traditions and Rituals

Marriage traditions include balls, the testing of auras and the proposal includes tying a piece of clothing around the wrist of their beloved. Blessings and Curses are like birth times, the couple and their family are vulnerable to those so usually, these celebration are only limited to family and friends though it is not so intimate or strong than an egg's ability to accept them.   The most common tradition for death is putting the body on a bed (commonly their own bed), surrounding the bed with either Lilies, Roses, chrysanthemums or all three (occasionally the Mirus flower might drop whenever there is a death that it wants to mourn) they will burn the bed unless they donate their bodies to science.   Usually a fairy body takes longer to decompose as there are no Scavengers nor do they have maggots or other insects (florists uses magic to pollinate them and butterflies are believed to be link to their ancestry) and their skin is more tougher than humans. Different races have different skin however but internally they are still the same, metaphorically and literally.   After their body has been burned with their bed and flowers, they will join the remains of their soul and into the atmosphere. This may make killing more desirable as usually those souls are made to increase the magical ability of those who can use it. (Mostly Elemental Manipulation or Telekinesis)   Holidays

They can also withstand extreme heat and don't do so well in the cold.   Patria(s) are green or gray skinned, their skin is able to tan so the shade of green depends on their lifestyle with no fixed color hairs, though black is most common.   Ventus are beach colored with different color hairs, they look a lot like White people on earth but they have the natural ability to fly and an affinity for wind or weather magic.   Umbra(s) are black or reddish brown skinned and with naturally growing feathered wings, they also have natural black hair and mostly red eyes.   Aes are dwarf sized, pink skinned with natural strong hands and their traditional clothing being armor, they find the Mainland cooling and nice. Kampos look a lot like sea horses just human sized with beady black eyes, no hair but with arms, webbing between fingers and a tail with feet that grows when they want to be on land. Pinix(ies) have fillers and wings that look more like plastic ribbons, they have human like skin tones but also can be born pale white, they also have pointed feet.   Chaliki(es) are gray skinned like stone, all agender and without hair or nose.
