Powers and Abilities

When taking on the role of a fairy godmother a witch is granted powers beyond what they are normally capable.

Tabitha's powers

• Magic via Fairy Godmother's wand: With the Fairy Godmother's wand, Tabitha was able to perform impressive magical powers, along with its curse.
  • Wish bestowal: Tabitha had the ability to grant the wishes of her charge.
  • Teleportation: She could appear or disappear in a swirl of light orbs.
  • Conjuration: She was able to create simple objects, such as a crystal ball, from thin air.
  • Scrying: She could spy on another person using a reflective surface, like a crystal ball.
  • Transformation: Tabitha could transform humans into animals, like pigs.
  • Biokinesis: With a wand gesture, she was able to prevent John Constantine from speaking.
  • Telekinesis: With a hand gesture, she threw John Constantine away.
  • Apparition: She was able to teleport people from one location to another, as in the case of Jane Hawthorne, Zari and Reverend Parsons.
  • Pyrokinesis: She could summon fire from the pit of Hell to burn the people from Salem.
  • Reality warping: Tabitha was able to use some of her powers on the whim, like turning reality into a musical, similar to Music Meister.

Abilities

• Persuasion: Tabitha was cursed being a Fairy Godmother, thus wasn't able to perform magic on her own, relying on her charge's wishes to cast magic. To do what she wants, she needed to persuade her charge to ask for that wish.

Nora's Fairy Godmother powers

• Magic via Fairy Godmother's wand: After getting the wand from Tabitha, she gained impressive additional magical powers, along with its curse.
  • Wish bestowal: Nora is able to grant wishes of her charge.
  • Tracking: Nora is able to track a person, navigated by the wand.

  • Wish Sensing: According to Nora, Fairy Godmothers have what she refers to as a "special radar that tunes into kid's wishes", which enables her to hear such wishes made within her vicinity.

Weaknesses

Tabtha's weaknesses

• Host dependence: Tabitha cannot use her powers on her own without the charge's consent. If the charge breaks their bond she is completely powerless. If renounced by the host, she will be unable to use magic. Since giving the Fairy Godmother's wand to Nora and being released from the curse, this is no longer a weakness for her.

Nora's weaknesses

• Host dependence: Nora cannot use her Fairy Godmother powers on her own without the charge's consent. In addition, since she became a Fairy Godmother, she is seemingly unable to access her other magical powers.
  • Obligation: Since taking the Fairy Godmother's wand from Tabitha and getting it's curse, Nora has to grant her charge's wishes, without her own will.
• Magical limitations: Every magic has it's own limits; while being able to grant most of the wishes, even Nora (with the Fairy Godmother's wand) couldn't retrieve Ray Palmer while Neron was using his body. She was also unable to prevent John Constantine from dying when one of her charges wished from him to stay alive, due to the fact that Astra accelerated his date of death from Hell.

Equiptment

• Fairy Godmother's wand: It grants impressive magical powers, being able to grant most wishes of its charge but not the hosts, unless the charge wishes to.
• Fairy Godmothers dress: A blue dess that is worn when a fairy godmother is granted her title.
• Tiara: It as a tiara that seems to have no power.

Host's powers ang abilities

• Wishing: A host can wish for almost anything and a fairy godmother can grant them it even when their fairy godmother is not there.
• Summoning: A host can summon their fairy godmother anytime they wish.

Host's weakness

• Being scilenced: A host must vocalize a wish for thier fairygodmother to act.
• Manipulation: a fairy godmother can manipulate their host into doing things they normally wouldn't do.

Trivia

• According to. Nora Darhk one of the first wishes a child makes is for a pony.
