sprites
Tiny magical folk
Sprites are mythical beings—small, mischievous spirits of the air, water, or woods.
The word suggests lightness and quickness: sprites dancing in the moonlight.
In computing, a sprite is a two-dimensional image or animation integrated into a larger scene, especially in video games: The game's character sprites were beautifully designed.
Sprite also names a lemon-lime soft drink.
