Silvermist, also known as Sil by her friends, is a Water-talent fairy. Silvermist first appeared as a minor character in the original chapter books aswell as the title character for a book released a few months before the first film, but later became part of the main cast in the movies.
Physical appearence[]
Silvermist has a medium complexion with a warm undertone, and a somewhat slimmer figure compared to her friends. She has semi-wavy, deep blue hair that goes down to her thighs, and a piece of her hair is swept over her head, hanging over her shoulder. Her eyes are slanted and chestnut brown, her eyebrows are thin and her lips are vermillion colored. Her outfit varies between the seasonal realms, but she normally wears a long, wrap dress with just the right strap/shoulder. Her dress is made of blue petals from an unknown flower, and the chest area of her dress fades to more of a turquoise blue. The top of her dress has a small fold down along the edge, and the end of her dress has a small curl. She wears blue flats (shoes),
In the books and in her first appearence, Silvermist looked pretty similar. Her dress had similar shoulders/straps, but compared to her dress in the movies it was made of various smaller petals wrapping around her. The color of her dress was also lighter, and it was slightly transparent at the bottom. In her earlier adaptations she also wore a blue headpiece made of leaves.
Personality[]
In the films, Silvermist is delightfully offbeat and has an upbeat way of look at everything. Unfortunately, jokes and expressions do not get very far past her doorstep, and she takes hyperbole very literally. Very much a free spirit, she often listens to her heart more than her head. She is an easygoing and shy soul who is eager to please and makes friends easily. Her sense of loyalty is unmatched, and rubs off on Tinker Bell.
Anthroponymy[]
Silver, or rather it's latin word argentum, can also mean "white" or "shining".[3][4]
Mist is a thin fog produced by very small drops of water collecting in the air just above an area of ground or water. This connects to her role as a water-talent fairy.
