2) How to Get Faerie Abilities
==============================================================================

Faerie Abilities can be granted to your pet by buying Bottled Faeries. On the
shop wiz, they are called Bottled *element* Faerie (ie. Bottled Fire Faerie)
and usually cost around 3,000 - 4,000 Neopoints. You must be a certain level for
the faerie to be able to bless your pet.

5) Frequently Asked Questions
==============================================================================

How do I increase the level of my Ability?
If you land on the Light Faerie at the Wheel of Excitement, she increases your
level in a random ability.

How do I decrease the level of my Ability?
If you land on the Dark Faerie at the Wheel of Excitement, she decreases your
level in a random ability. If all your abilities are level 1, she doesn't do
anything.

What do Faerie Ability Levels do?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's something Neopets put in (aka the words)
but never finished. So it doesn't matter what level your ability is, it'll do
the same thing.
