 Noreen, like all fairies, had the power to fly and to travel through time, though she was prohibited from physically altering the world. She could also use her powers to "fajazzle" people, placing them in a sort of trance. Her brother Griff believed that she was better at it than him.
-As a female fairy, Noreen had a special power that allowed her to teleport people to what they were picturing, such as a loved one, but only for a duration of 20 minutes. Use of this power resulted in the expulsion of "magic gas" (a fart).

+==Behind the scenes==
+===Name===
+[[wiktionary:Noreen|Noreen]] is a name with two distinct origins: Irish and Arabic.
+The Irish version of the name is the anglicized version of Nóirín, which is the diminutive of [[wiktionary:Nora|Nora]]. Nora originates as a short form of [[wiktionary:Honora|Honora]] (also Honoria), a common Anglo-Norman name, ultimately derived from the Latin word [[wiktionary:Honor|Honor]] (with that meaning).
+The Arabic version of the name means "luminous."
