Sprixies are fairylike creatures appearing in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They are the inhabitants of the Sprixie Kingdom, ruled by the seven Sprixie Princesses. Sprixies bear some resemblance to the Subcons from both Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2. Their eyes are beady, and a pair of wings project from the back, allowing the Sprixie to fly. Common Sprixies wear a pink outfit with two yellow buttons and a pink hood on the head.

Sprixies appear in various levels and areas of each world, providing assistance to Mario and company throughout the game. In certain areas, some appear with a pair of binoculars that (when viewed) shows the direction of the Goal Pole, similar to Binoculars in Super Mario 3D Land.

Sprixies also own and host the stamp-providing Sprixie Houses, the Mystery Houses, and the Lucky Houses.
