“	Don't worry, old father. Our little vagabond Pinocchio's also broken my heart too many times. My spells now include bonds of loyalty to you and fealty to hearth and home.	„
	~ The Blue Fairy to Geppetto in Fables #40 — "He's Only a Bird in a Gilded Cage: Chapter Four of Homelands."

The Blue Fairy was the being that provided the magical influence that allowed the creations of Geppetto to become flesh and blood.

History

Before and During the Exodus

The Blue Fairy happened upon Geppetto while he was working with a magical log from a special place. She told him to carve it into something good, and he made a puppet, Pinocchio, granting him the son he had always wanted. The Blue Fairy took a liking to the boy and in time turned him into a real boy of flesh and blood. Pinocchio was prone to wander into adventures on his own, leaving home for years at a time. Geppetto in turn carved new sons and daughters, and every once in a while the Blue Fairy would turn one of them into a real boy or girl, along with making them loyal to their father.

A drained Blue Fairy.

It wasn't long before Geppetto was involved in a conspiracy to replace the rulers of certain lands with his wooden puppets, and, amused by the proposition, the Blue Fairy played along. But, after a while, she grew bored with the game and became less reliable. By then, Geppetto had learned the craft and managed to incapacitate and bind the Blue Fairy. From then on she would become the source of his elixir that would transform his creations into flesh, or give the appearance of flesh when needed; she also provided the potion that kept the Snow Queen loyal to him.

21^st Century

During a secret mission in the Homelands, Bigby attempted to free the still comatose Blue Fairy. When that didn't work, he tried to destroy her, but was once again unsuccessful, as Geppetto had protected her with powerful spells. After Geppetto was brought to Fabletown in the wake of the Empire's destruction, a now free Blue Fairy showed up at the Farm when Ozma summoned her with the intention of having her kill Geppetto. Pinocchio attacked her, seeking revenge for being stuck as a little boy for centuries; but the fairy quickly overpowered him. Before she could enact her revenge, Beast stepped in and offered her a deal: in 777 days he would have Geppetto passively waiting to take whatever punishment she decided on, but if he failed, then he would become her slave for 777 years. The Blue Fairy agreed and departed.

When the grace period was over, the Blue Fairy travelled to Haven to claim her reward. Instead, Beast managed to trick her into a marriage proposal in the name of Geppetto; once again she agreed. She sent Lake as her representative to negotiate the terms of the wedding. However, before such an event could occur, she was decapitated by Goldilocks and her still talking head was thrown into the nothingness of her own realm.

Trivia

• The Blue Fairy is based on the Fairy with Turquoise Hair from Carlo Collodi's novel The Adventures of Pinocchio from 1883. In the novel, she repeatedly appars at critical moments in Pinocchio's wanderings to admonish the little wooden puppet to avoid bad or risky behavior. Although the naïvely willful marionette initially resists the Fairy's good advice, he later comes to follow her instruction. She in turn protects him, and later enables his assumption of human form, contrary to the prior wooden form.
• The name "Blue Fairy" is not from the novel; it is the name given to the character in the Disney animated film Pinocchio.
