Water Fairy Rani

Intro From the Gail Carson Levine “Fairies” Trilogy. Rani is a water-talent fairy who can bend and mold water, bounce it like a ball, scoop it up in her fingers, or even make it boil faster. Being a water fairy, Rani cries easily. She loves rainy days, splashing in puddles, and swimming. She has a fascination with mermaids, and once acted as a mediator between the mermaids and the residents of Pixie Hollow. Fairy wings are easily waterlogged and can cause a fairy to drown, so Rani had her wings cut off in order to meet with the mermaids. Her sacrifice makes her possibly the bravest of the fairies. Since she can no longer fly on her own, a dove carries her when she needs to travel a long distance.
