If taken ill, you may be 'elf-struck', shot with an elven arrow. In Cumbrian folklore, the elves got the arrows from faeries, who got them from mermaids.

Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the disheveled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.

(These are old drawings lmao 💀)

The flying girl is the princess of the faeries, Elanor, the twins with the antlers are Flicker (fire powers) and Faun (earth powers), and the kid with the sword in the tree is Alo. He’s a forest elf.

Elves and faeries, huh? Yokai and dullahan might not count, but here they are anyway, though the dullahan isn't finished...

Anyhow, m'name's Cat, and I'm a nonbinary artist and writer. I love making fantasy and sci fi of basically every sort. Fae are some of my favorite, though.
