A Sprite is a tiny Pixie-like being with wings that first appears in Rosemary and Rue.

About[]

Faerie’s smaller citizens have their own culture and their own customs. Most of us are almost human one way or another: almost human-sized and almost human-minded. The smaller folks never acquired that “almost” and they scorn and resent the rest of us for having it. They don’t wear suits, get mortgages, or attend PTA meetings. They haunt the garden pathways, living in the space between what the eye sees and what it chooses to ignore, and they never pretend to be anything that they aren’t. I guess that makes it harder to forget what they really are, and what they are is inhuman . . . and greedy." [1]

They can be enticed and bound to do small errands with payments of blood.[2]

Characters[]

An unnamed sprite working for Evening Winterrose arranges for Spike to bring the Rose Key to Toby.

Mythology[]

A sprite is a supernatural entity in European mythology. They are often depicted as fairy-like creatures or as an ethereal entity. In some elemental magics, the sprite is often believed to be the elemental of air.
