Complications:
Betrayal - The Pixie Servants are servants of the Faerie Court and are sworn to protect them, laying down their lives if necessary. Having abandoned her post to run off with Granite to Earth, she has broken that oath.
Names Have Power In Magic - Using a person's full name is evidence of a level of personal knowledge, and knowledge is power. If a mage uses a person's given name in conjunction with a spell, it will have a stronger effect, depending on how intimate that knowledge is. This is why most magic-users keep their identities a closely-guarded secret. If the mage has read the full name somewhere (personal records, internet, etc.), the attack gains a +2 effect. If they have heard the full name spoken, they get a +5. And if they have heard the person speak the name from their own mouth, +10 effect is applied.
Truly Secret Identity - Because of their close ties to magic, fairies are given two names at birth: one that is shared with others (often representing something in nature), and one that is their true name, given at birth and only shared with the closest of loved ones.
Relationships - Buttercup loves her husband deeply and is willing to do anything to keep him safe. Likewise, she adores her daughter and regrets some of the decisions they felt they had to make in the past. Her hope is that, now that the truth is out, their relationship can be rebuilt.
Secret - Buttercup has spent the past 30 years pretending to be a normal human housewife. She desperately fears what will happen if the world learned that she was really a pixie from an alternate dimension.
Vulnerability - Pixies have the reputed faerie weakness to iron and take +2 to the effect. This entails pure iron only, not objects that have been refined, like steel.

The Pixie Servants were created and designed by Neil Lindgren. Buttercup was designed by Jim Caswell. They are all NPCs.
