Fairy Leaf

Fairy Leaf is one of the main characters in BLACKSOULS. She’s a green fairy and your first companion in the game you can meet in the upper part of the Holy Forest. Leaf will always guide the player and be by every bonfire in the game, waiting for you with a few lines of dialogue from which you can learn some stuff about the area you’re in.

Her role in the series is huge. Leaf is one of the Great Ones, also known as Mary Sue and Mary Ann. She’s deeply in love with Grimm, and she likes creating fun and morbid scenarios and stories for him and herself.

Appearances | BS1

Leaf will be by your side throughout the entire game, and she’s the first companion you will have.

Meeting Leaf

You will meet Leaf in the upper part of the Holy Forest, she will have her back turned away from you, singing in the forest just like a regular fairy. You will be able to either greet her or try to kill her.

If you choose to greet her she will be amused by your presence, saying how you must be bewildered with one surprising thing happening after another. But Leaf will tell you how it’s fine since the Holy Forest is protected by a holy barrier, so it’s safe inside the forest.

She will introduce herself as Leaf and you will tell her your name as well. Leaf will ask if you’re going to the Lost Empire later, and then also say you’re free to go wherever you want. But since it’s dangerous to be alone she will lend you her help, offering herself to become your first companion.

Leaf will go on to give you more advice, saying how you’re “free”. If there’s someone you don’t like you should kill them, and if there’s a girl you want then you should take her by force.

Leaf will jokingly say that this country is destined to perish anyway, and from now on you will be able to find her in the Holy Forest whenever you need her, but you can also summon her in battle whenever you want.

Basement

You can find Leaf in the Basement.

She will tell you that it’s obviously a prison, ending the conversation with “You understand what’s it for, right? Hihihi.”

Empty Beach

At the Empty Beach, before you reach Atlantica, you can find Leaf roaming around the area. She will not have much to say and will disappear after you reach Atlantica.

Gate of the Lost Empire

You can find Leaf at the Gate of the Lost Empire when you kill four Demonic Princesses.

Leaf will say how it’s amazing that you two finally got there. At the beginning of the adventure, she was always wondering whether your spirit would break or not, but now she finally believes that you may be able to defeat the final Demonic Princess – Cinderella.

Leaf will say how her mother gave a “dreaming ash-haired girl” way too much magic. That girl then decided to rule the country as she suddenly had a vast amount of power, even though the dream was meant to end when the bell rang twelve.

The pumpkin carriage attacked the country, the glass shoes broke into tiny pieces, and then the fog came, spreading even more chaos throughout the entirety of Elysium.

Leaf’s mother vanished to atone for her sins.

So now Leaf wants to beat Cinderella together with you, but she quickly goes back on her statement, saying that it’s up to you to decide what to do. Cinderella’s power is huge, and it would be amazing if you defeated her, but there’s a big risk of becoming her slave if you lose.

Leaf will say that it’s fine to run away, because after all, she wants to be with you more and more.

If you talk to Leaf once again, she will understand your decision, that you want to reach Cinderella. So she will give you Leaf’s Ring, her charm, which you shouldn’t lose. Although if you lose her charm, you can just ask her at the same place for another one.

Leaf’s Ring gives you the chance to evade attack and spell hits+20%, and it doubles speed.

Hotel Poseidon

Taking Leaf to Hotel Poseidon is possible. You need to have her on the 100th level or higher, and all you need to do is talk to Pinnochio about it and you will be alone with her in one of the rooms of the love hotel.

The H scene with Leaf in the hotel is quite morbid considering her size, and you can’t kill her no matter how many times you try to.

Misc | BS1

Miscellaneous interactions with Leaf.

Fighting Leaf

When you meet Leaf, you will be able to kill her instead of greeting her normally. This will initiate a fight with her, and she will most likely kill you in an instant, but if you get very strong, you will be able to defeat her.

If you manage to kill Leaf, you will get a Black Soul, Fairy Powder, and Fairy’s Wing. She will be amused by how you trained to defeat her, but say “Sorry, but for this tale to advance you’ll have to endure for just a bit more, alright?”, and then she will praise you and call you a good boy.

This will get you back into the same position as before, and Leaf will still be standing there.

Hansel and Gretel

After Lindamea takes care of Hansel and Gretel, Leaf will be outside Dorothy’s house. She will say that humans are mysterious, “without batting an eye they kill and die. Why?”

She says that if you commit sins, the Black Trial will come to punish you, so if the two (Hansel and Gretel) were born in a prosperous house and if they were raised with love, then it maybe wouldn’t have ended like this.

But to all of that, Leaf says: “But that didn’t happen. And so it didn’t happen. That’s it. Their tale ended here, (your name).”

Playing in the Water

If Leaf is on the 30th level or higher, you can see her playing in the water if you go to the southern part of the Holy Forest.

You will come to the lake and you will find wet Leaf looking at you. She will be glad to see you and tell you that the water in the lake feels super nice, she wants to play together with you.

Leaf will give you a wide innocent smile. You will comment on how even though she’s a fairy, “her body is that of a maiden”.

Leaf will laugh mischievously and ask you if you got excited by seeing a naked fairy, and then she will continue to tease you by calling you a pervert. You will leave, and she will laugh, asking if you’re mad – ending the scene by remarking how she wanted you to stare some more.

Ending A

Leaf is a character who appears in Ending A. She will be close to the Prayer Master at the lamppost.

When you talk to Leaf, she will laugh and say that the Demonic Princesses are dead and that the world is saved. She will be happy for you, saying how you chose to become a hero, and that that wasn’t a wrong choice. Leaf will say that you saved them all too, and she will thank you a bunch before telling you that she loves you.

If you talk to her again, she will ask if you think it’s time to begin the celebration.

If you choose to begin, you will see the ending of Ending A.

If you choose that it’s not the time yet, she will tell you to hurry up, as you’re the star.

Ending C

Pursuing the C Ending in the first BLACKSOULS game will reveal many things extremely important for the lore of the game.

Once you fill the Alice’s Library with all fairytales and pull the lever in the Kill area. You will be transferred to the original version of the Holy Forest, which is quite in chaos. There will be multiple NPCs you’re already familiar with, talking about a certain someone you may heard of from certain characters in the game – Mary Sue.

Mary Sue is Leaf, a Great One who’s also in control of Elysium, the garden where the first game takes place. She made Elysium just for you, the main player, Grimm, so you can spend as much time as you can with her.

She’s an obsessive omnipotent being, but that doesn’t get revealed instantly as you will notice Leaf being attacked by some kind of fairy-like creatures if you go further in the Holy Forest.

And after you reach the end of the world, i.e. the End of the Journey area. Leaf will ask you for the true identity of Mary Sue because she appears to not know either.

You need to type in “Leaf” and then proceed to go further, otherwise, you will get a game over.

And then she will reveal her identity and go totally crazy – she’ll admit to killing Alice and she will also claim that she’s God.

Fighting Mary Sue

Once you reveal Leaf’s true identity and she admits to being in control of everything, she will automatically initiate a fight with you and you will have to defeat her if you want to finish the game.

Her attacks are very strong and she has a ton of health. But then she will turn into the Demonbeast Mary Sue and be even stronger than in her last form. She will spam a ton of spells and various types of attacks that will most likely take you out.

And then if you defeat that form, she will turn into the God of Creation Mary Sue who’s also quite strong and equally terrifying. Her spells are strong and her attacks are furious.

After killing the God of Creation Mary Sue, you two will hug each other and make love, but Grimm will just choke her to death during the act.

Companion Ending

Leaf is one of the characters in BLACKSOULS that has a Companion Ending.

More on that here.

Appearances | BS2

Leaf is one of the few characters from the first game you can find in the second as well, and she makes a few interesting and also important appearances throughout it.

Imprisoned Fairy

In BLACKSOULS 2, Leaf is restrained and imprisoned inside the Queen’s Castle, located in Queensland. Queensland is Prickett’s garden, and in the Fairy Jail area is where Leaf is locked up and kept, because she has been acting quite mischievous for a while.

Her name is changed in the second game from Leaf/Mary Sue to Mary Ann. This is most likely a reference to Mary Ann from Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland”. Mary Ann is White Rabbit’s housemaid, so her name was most likely taken as a reference for Leaf’s status in the second game. Also, Mary Ann and Mary Sue are relatively similar names.

Leaf is now your size, and she isn’t a small fairy anymore.

When you come in front of the door to her jail cell, you will be able to see Leaf chained to the wall. She’ll be happy to see you and to be able to talk to you again. This time though, she’ll be freely addressing you as Grimm.

Mary Ann

If you come into Leaf’s jail cell and decide to interact with her, you’ll have a variety of things you can do to her.

You don’t have to save Leaf, you can leave her there to which she’ll protest. But if you want to punish her for everything she did to you, you can punch her in the stomach, or choose to kill her. Although if you punch her in the stomach, she’ll instantly die too. Killing her directly is more morbid though, because the whole place will get bloody.

If you choose to save Leaf, she will immediately come behind your back and basically trick you again, although this time her power to change things has been taken from her. She’ll try escaping the prison cell but an unknown force will stop her from leaving it.

Leaf will be confused, and then she’ll go back to the place where she was tied up because she can’t leave even though she wants to.

From then on you can make love to Leaf.

Talking more to Leaf will initiate a conversation where she’ll give you her ring – Leaf’s Ring. This ring is really important for G and F endings in the game.

Making Mary Small Again

If you have the Drink Me item in your inventory you will be able to make love to regular Mary, but also to “tiny Mary”. You can make Mary drink the potion and then have a special H scene with her while she’s in that state.

You can find the Drink Me potion in the Hall, in the Rabbit Hole area, at the beginning of the game.

Grimm will make fun of Mary for becoming Leaf again, saying how even the Anti-Fairy thing didn’t work on her back then, but now even this “drug” can alter her appearance. She will be happy to know that you miss Leaf, but to her, that’s obvious because she has been your partner for a long time.

This whole scene is interesting, to say the least.

Chaos Dungeon

One of the first places where you can encounter Leaf in the second game is in the Chaos Dungeon, which is an area that’s part of Shatranj, i.e. Mabel’s garden.

One of the areas in the Chaos Dungeon will be a replica of an area from the first game, and next to the bonfire, you will be able to see Leaf next to it just like at almost every bonfire in the first game. But if you approach Leaf, you will see that it’s actually a fake doll of her, placed there to trick you.

Endings F and G

At a certain part of the events that happen during Endings F and G, you will meet Red Hood who has been brought there by Node. You and her will finally have a reunion but then Mary Sue will come out all of a sudden, laughing and telling Red Hood how she has gotten pretty strong for “a failure”.

Mary wonders whether revenge, obsession, or love keeps Red Hood still alive, but to her, that doesn’t matter saying how it’s worthless.

She will then go on to thank you for keeping the ring she gave you safe because she was able to get out of jail thanks to you having the ring. Red Hood will ask you if you really saved Mary, addressing her as “this thing”.

You will have the option to either side with Red Hood or Mary Ann.

Choosing Red Hood will lead to a fight against Mary. If you manage to win the fight, Mary will confess how it’s impossible for you and Red Hood to have a happy ending, because she made it impossible for Red Hood to live past 20 years old.

She also made it impossible for Grimm to have a happy ending with any other heroine – they will all tragically die in the end because she made Grimm to be “the tragic hero”. Grimm will get tired of this and then he will punch Mary and kill her.

But if you choose to side with Mary Ann, then you will fight Red Hood with Mary by your side just like the good old days. After the fight ends you and Mary will finish off Red Hood together, killing her for real.

Now there’s only one more person you two need to kill, and that is the Crawling One, also known as Alice. Before proceeding further you can talk to Mary for a little bit and she will tell you what she knows about the Crawling One – if you’re curious about that check the post on Alice.

You and Mary will fight the Little Girl Alice.

After this fight ends Mary will be very happy, because now the two of you can finally create wonderful and cruel stories together for all eternity. But that won’t happen.

It turns out you and Mary have been stuck copulating for 4 years every day, and then you will start choking Mary again, and she’s unable to stop you. It seems like you and Mary are stuck under Alice’s control, as a giant version of her is peering into your room, watching you and Mary do the thing.

Losing the Ability to Change

By interacting with a teddy bear in one of the houses in the Winterbell area, there will be a story playing events when Mary Sue lost her power to change.

It will start with Mary complaining about how she lost the power to change, but Node will tell her to stay quiet. Mary will start blaming the Crawling One and how he tricked her, and she will also say that she did nothing wrong.

Node doesn’t like Mary and she doesn’t want to keep up with her clingy antics. After Mary complains some more, Node will say how she saved her already from the Crawling One killing her totally.

Node will say how Mary’s creations have a negative influence on other Great Ones, and how she will never be a Great One ever again.

Mary will tease Node for being in love with Grimm, and Node won’t admit that. But Mary will tease Node for her “dirty little secret”. This won’t continue for long as Node won’t fall for Mary’s provocations, so she will just insult her Garden instead.

Mary will then go on and brag how she’s now “a kidnapped princess”, waiting for her prince to come and save her.

Suddenly, another visitor will come to Mary’s room, who even Mary won’t initially recognize. The flashback will end with a scary sight of someone calling for Mary, probably with not the best intent in mind.

This is most likely Jabberwock.

Ending H

Mary makes a short appearance at the very end of the events of Ending H, right before the scene with Red Hood comes up. She will be passing through a dark void and then stop to look at you before disappearing from the screen.

H Scenes | BS1

Leaf doesn’t have many H scenes in the first game.

Amount of H scenes: 5

H Scenes | BS2

Leaf makes a lovely return with her H scenes in the second game.

Amount of H scenes: 3

Personality

Getting to know Leaf reveals a lot of things about her you may not have known at first.

Fairy Leaf

Leaf acts as your guardian since the beginning of the game. She’s your first companion and always waiting for you at every bonfire to give you a useful piece of advice. Other than that, she’s really devoted to the player and is always happy when you feed her souls.

Leaf is obsessive, she’ll do everything for you and has a quite sweet nature. She’s the type of girl you’d want to have in real life.

Mary Sue

When Leaf reveals that she’s, in reality, Mary Sue, the creator of Elysium and the one behind everything bad going on in that world, you will also finally witness her true nature.

Mary is infatuated with Grimm. She created Elysium so she could spend as much time as possible with Grimm by being a heroine who will be by his side while he goes on adventures through the messed up world she created. She loves him and is attached to him, even when he hurts her and when she hurts him.

Design

Leaf is a small fairy with a simple design that’s very recognizable. She has short green hair and big green eyes.

Her body is very small since she’s a fairy, and that makes a lot of the H scenes look quite interesting. Leaf doesn’t have much clothing either, but it’s not too revealing. She has a green bodysuit that looks like something a fairy would wear.
