Fairies who inhabits the Isle of Man, located in the Irish Sea.

These fairies, regarded as fallen angels, to bad for heaven and too good for hell, were mischievous, but could also be benevolent. They are beautiful, shy and also mischievous, but benevolent as well.

They took wives and babies from the humans when they wanted. They weren't always visible, though when seen they were about the size of a small child.

When the Manx people heard the fairies making storage barrels in the caves, they knew there would be a good harvest or good fishing.
