Lore[]
This section uses content from Wowpedia.
- The Blackwald is a forest in southern Gilneas, located south of Gilneas City and north of the village of Stormglen. The Blackwald was the home of the Druids of the Scythe, who eventually became the first worgen. Tal'doren - a tree identical to the one where the original worgen were imprisoned in the Emerald Dream - is in the forest's center. The Blackwald is full of Howling Banshees, Sylvanas' scouts looking for Tal'doren.
Much like how the rest of the Blackwald was transformed into the Witchwood by Hagatha the Witch, Blackwald Pixie "was turned dark and spooky" by Hagatha.[1]
Blackwald Pixie resembles a sprite.
This section uses content from Wowpedia.
- Sprites are small, mischievous nature spirits found in Pandaria, on the Wandering Isle, and in Val'sharah.
- Mischievous and prevalent, the nature sprites of Pandaria resemble the prevalent features of their surroundings, like shrubs or rocks. Their appearance allows them to easily hide and engage in their favorite pastime – playing tricks on others for inscrutable reasons. Many forest sprites' pranks – disguising themselves as stools to trip people, or throwing fruit and nuts at wanderers – seem harmless. Mountain spirits' means of interaction tend to have a higher incidence of violence and death, involving rockslides and falls off cliffs.
- Rumor has it that more deadly, unique varieties of sprites have emerged in sha-tainted areas. If sprites' behavior is simply a reflection of the environments that surround them, any such creatures must be monumentally dangerous.
- Plant-like sprites are really just living plants and will resprout later if killed. The needles of the needle sprites that dwell in Kun-Lai Summit can be used in a special acupuncture technique to purge poison.
- Sprites shroud themselves in illusion to avoid detection. It is a little-known secret that the dust sprites use for their various tricks have restorative properties.
Sprites are not previously known to live in Gilneas, but concept art for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm depicts a Gilnean creature known as a "thorn sprite".
Trivia[]
- This card's quotes are a reference to the character Puck from William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream, a trickster working for the pixie king who remarks on the foolishness of mortals.
- This card's flavor text is a reference to "Oh hi Mark", a line spoken by the protagonist Johnny in the infamous 2003 film The Room.
