fairy
Tiny magical being
A fairy is a small magical being from folklore, typically depicted with wings and supernatural powers.
Fairies inhabit enchanted realms in children's stories and fantasy literature: fairy tales, fairy godmother, tooth fairy.
The word is also a derogatory term for a gay man, though less common than it once was.
