The People

From Artemis Fowl

The People, informally known as fairies, are the peaceful citizens of the Lower Elements. All the members of every family, excluding demons, can control the blue sparks of magic. If a fairy breaks any of the rules in The Book they will lose their magic. Whether it is a permanent loss or effective until the next performed Ritual is unknown.

There are eight "families" of fairies:

• Elves
• Pixies
• Gnomes
• Goblins
• Dwarves
• Sprites
• Demons
• Centaurs

There are also two other races which are technically "fairies", but are not one of the eight families:

• Gremlins
• Trolls (are not sentient, so may count as fauna)

Humans composed the Ninth Family, before they forgot their magic.
