* The Elves in ''[[8-Bit Theater]]''. Especially Thief.
{{quote|'''Thief''': Like it says in our national anthem ''Elfland, and fuck you too'', [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2008/11/29/episode-1065-team-up-spectacular/ "We are a race of total bastards"]}}
* In the webcomic ''[[Chasing the Sunset]]'', there are many types of Fey, who usually don't bother humans and others until bothered first. The common exception are pixies. They are a hilarious and horrible [[Running Gag]]. Pixies are not evil per se but extremely mischievous and scatterbrained. The kind of things you do ''not'' want in a fireworks shop.
{{quote|'''Ayne''': But why help us? You don't know us.
'''Fey stone''': {{smallcaps|If you stay, does the pixie stay too?}}
'''Leaf''': Probably?
'''Fey stone''': {{smallcaps|We'll get you out.}} }}
** [[Bonus Material]] includes "[http://www.fantasycomic.com/index.php?p=pixietrouble pixie facts]" and a [http://www.fantasycomic.com/index.php?p=7minwar story] of 20 pixies attacking a wizards' tower just because they didn't have anything better to do.
{{quote|A creature of chaos, the Ur-pixie is thought to be the mother and father of all pixies, representing the fundamental chaos of the universe. Where pixies later evolved into spirits of laughter and joy (or at least that's the standing theory, which has many opponents amongst those who have come into direct contact with them), the Ur-pixie is a cumulation of chaos and magic.}}
** Then there are fairy dragons that look like a floaty glowing seahorse and communicate via some sort of birdsong only other fey creatures understand. These were created as an experiment. "They're what you get if you take a dragon, remove physical body and leave just the magic".
{{quote|'''Myhrad''': Well, fairy dragons are very different from other dragons. They have no physical body to age, so they often remain playful and childlike.▼
▲'''Myhrad''': Well, fairy dragons are very different from other dragons. They have no physical body to age, so they often remain playful and childlike.
'''Leaf''': What, like pixies?
'''Myhrad''': I said childlike, not spoiled-teenager-like. }}
