Fairy Companion
Type	Companion
Fields	Fairy, Light, Kokiri
Cost	50 rupees

A Fairy Companion is able to serve as a character's companion. It is physiologically identical to a Tiny Fairy, but does not have its own PWC score, cannot earn any treasures, and is dependent on whoever found it.

A fairy companion is--usually--a tiny glowing and flying humanoid fairy. One of these sprites appears not unlike a small, hovering, and glowing Hylian when viewed closely, but from a distance appears only as a shimmering ball of light with wings. This fairy has no healing powers, spells, or other treasures. It is incapable of doing much harm to any opponents, save extremely weak and similarly-sized creatures such as Keese. However, the tiny fairy companion can be loyal to the character, is intelligent, sheds a bright light of a single hue, is capable of swift and highly maneuverable flight, and can speak the Hylian language at least as proficiently as the average Hylian.

Gaining this treasure will automatically grant the player a Race License for the Tiny Fairy race.

This treasure is a racial perk for both Kokiri and Great Fairies. A Kokiri is usually given a tiny fairy companion upon birth by the Great Deku Tree, to help guide them through life. Similarly, a Great Fairy was once a Tiny Fairy herself, and either may have a friend from before her ascension, or be powerful enough to create Tiny Fairies herself. As such, a member of either race can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation, but forfeits Tiny Fairy license. If a member of either race chooses to gain this perk at some point after creation, the perk costs 15 less rupees than the listed price. Other races acquire this treasure normally.

If this Fairy Companion ever gains treasures of its own, it instead must become a player-character in its own right, treated as a member of the Tiny Fairy race.

Becoming a Player-Character

A Tiny Fairy can be created as its own player-character at any time, assuming the player has a Race License for the Tiny Fairy race.

If a Fairy Companion is gained as a treasure, it can similarly become a player-character at any point after it is acquired. Since gaining it granted the player a Race License in the first place, all the player has to do is submit a created character for approval based on the Fairy Companion. It will be graded like any other character.

Unlike a normal fairy companion, a full-fledged player-character has its own PWC score, gains its own treasures, and can act on its own.
