MC: Winter Sprite

This article's content is accurate to the most recent public game version, 0.4.8d.

Bestiary Entry: The court magicians of the Unseelie harness the cutting winter wind in combat, freezing foes solid with but a single gesture.

Winter Sprite: "So, the alert was real. We really are being invaded."

Nightcaller: "Good. I've been dying for some action!"

Eric(a): "Hold on, there's been a misunderstanding here. We're really just trying to get back home, that's all."

Nightcaller: "That's not happening without My Lady's permission!"

Natalie: "Well, that doesn't sound so bad. Just take us to her and we'll talk this out."

Winter Sprite: "We intend to. As soon as you're encased in ice and barely alive, that is."

Veronica: "HEY! The only one who encases people alive in ice is ME! Alright! Enough chatter! Let's wreck these oversized butterflies!"

Winter Sprites are among the true fey that can be found in the Fey Mansion alongside the Nightcallers, both capable of bossing around and transforming the lesser Fey Heralds. The Winter Sprites will turn them into Fey Hex Bearers. This transformation ability of course means that Winter Sprites should be prioritized above Fey Heralds, and in addition thanks to Hex Bearers having an Instant Death spell in their arsenal you should also consider prioritizing the Winter Sprite above any Nightcallers in the fight as well if there are any Fey Heralds remaining, since their Fey Battle Thralls don't have something quite so frightening in their arsenal.

In battle, as an offensive threat the Winter Sprites don't have anything too surprising in their arsenal. As mage type enemies they have the expected arsenal of varying Ice type spells and a number of STAT Down effects. Of note is their Icy Ward to cover their only weakness of Fire (since as the only non-flying fairy present they lack the more typical Wind vulnerability), and Magic Barrier to boost their MDF as well. Try to take them down before they can raise their defences. Also noteworthy is their Calming Winds spell, a rare healing spell that will allow their party to regenerate ten percent of their health every turn for the next several turns, healers should be killed as a priority as well.

Of course do not neglect that if they do manage to raise a Hex Bearer, the Hex Bearer should be killed before they can cast their instant death on any of your party.

Winter Sprites can be found in the Fey Mansion.
