Sprixie

Sprixies are fairy-like creatures appearing in Super Mario 3D World. They are the inhabitants of the Sprixie Kingdom, ruled by the seven Sprixie Princesses. The name Sprixie is a portmanteau of "sprite" and "pixie," which are considered synonymous with "fairy".

In Super Mario 3D World, Bowser enters the Sprixie Kingdom and captures the Sprixie Princesses in order to steal their treasure. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad journey into the Sprixie Kingdom to defeat Bowser and save the Sprixies. Each one is locked up in the first seven worlds. After all seven are freed, however, as the player reaches the flagpole, Bowser jumps out after his apparent defeat, snatches them again, and takes them to the eighth world, World Bowser.

Trivia

 * Sprixies bear some resemblance to the Subcons from Super Mario Bros. 2.
