Regarding the comment about pixies, I wondered if this might be intentional. I already noticed that the game puts clear limits on magic for most of the other fairy types, but doesn't describe any clear rules about what pixie dust can and can't do, thus meaning that it could be used to turn invisible, travel, etc. or duplicate any of the other types' gifts. At first I thought this was a bug, but based on what you've said above, it may be because that type is intended to be the "default" (as the classical perception of a fairy) and the others are options included for colour for anyone who doesn't want to play that default.

I also found the Boon rules a bit confusing - the rules talk about "spending Boons". At first glance, it looks like spending Boons means calling in favours, but the book later mentions that a fairy can spend Boons by "issuing a few of her own". This seems a bit odd - a fairy can get another fairy promoted by making a particular number of promises to other people, which might be nothing to do with the promotion?
