==Background== {{warcraft-section}} {{wow|Brightwing}} is a {{wow|Faerie Dragon}} located in the {{wow|Emerald Dreamway}} in {{wow|World of Warcraft}}. Faerie Dragons (also known as sprites, sprite darters, blink dragons, fey dragons or fey drakes)<ref name="Hero Week">[http://us.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/13756461 Heroes of the Storm Hero Week: Brightwing]</ref> are diminutive, intelligent creatures that look like flying lizards (much like a chameleon with butterfly wings). Though not actual {{wow|dragon}}s, these mystical looking creatures police the {{wow|Emerald Dream}} from magic. As such they are immune to magic. The Faerie Dragons of {{wow|Ashenvale}} are known for their playful demeanor, seemingly disappearing on a whim. The more mischievous ones will often materialize out of nowhere to save their allies, or simply to mock their foes.<ref name="Hero Week"/> One wouldn't know it from looking at them, but the lovely faerie dragons can be truly fearsome if trained properly. They can do amazing things to magical energy: absorb it, redirect it, even nullify it entirely. They're nearly harmless alone, but in large numbers, they can have a stunning effect on a battle.<ref>{{wow|Quest:Forces of Nature: Faerie Dragons}}</ref> Faerie dragons can speak, but few of them choose to do so.<ref name="Hero Week"/> The faerie dragons that dwell near {{wow|Nordrassil}} in {{wow|Mount Hyjal}} can see through enemy illusions. They are quite intelligent and able to speak, albeit with broken grammar.<ref>{{wow|Quest:Inciting the Elements}}</ref> This creature resembles a dragon in some respects, but feathery antennae sprout from its head and its wings are moth-like. Its turquoise scales shimmer in the sparkles that dance from its body. It turns its head to look at you with a beady black eye before emitting a small keen. They have a powerful natural defense against magic and the unique ability to phase out of reality. Their defense seems to work by the dragon encasing itself within a strong energy shield that repels most magic and conventional attacks. While in this form they can siphon the unused magical energy wasted in basic spell casting, and then focus, amplify, and direct it back at the unfortunate caster in a sort of "feedback" attack. This ability is very powerful but requires a great deal of effort, and can only be used sporadically, requiring the dragon to rest between uses. For this reason, the faerie dragons often travel in packs.
