We are taught there are six elements in Neopia: Air, Water, Earth, Fire, Light, and Dark. We are taught that if a Pet has an affinity for magic, it will fall into one or more of these six elements. We are told that a Pet’s affinity for magic can be influenced by its colour. And yet, we have Paintbrushes that don’t fall into the Six Elements and at least eleven Faeries that don’t seem to fall into these Six Elements either. So what does this mean? If all Faeries must be representative of an element of magic, then there must be more elements than just the main six! My friend, Nick Neopia, has encouraged me to post this theory, and so post it I shall! To keep in mind, all Paintbrush colours are possible from a combination (or deficit) of the different elements, but not all elements are representative in a colour. Fyora - Faerie Queen - (unavailable for comment) Let’s start with the queen of all Faeries, Fyora, who represents Royalty. Now what does Royalty mean? A Pet can be born Royal, but they can also be painted or zapped Royal. When they are made Royal, a fancy new outfit appears and this seems to be the main feature of a Royal Pet. With this knowledge, it is my hypothesis that every colour that grants clothes or extra features has a tiny sliver of Royalty.
