Miss Gwendoline Smith the Cheerful Fairy and her Blue Bird of Happiness (actually a hen, rather than sialia sialis or similar) were brought into being during the events of Hogfather. The Cheerful Fairy was plump with sensible shoes, tweed skirt, cardigan and a set of ineffective gossamer wings. She looked just like your first schoolteacher and wasn't very good at her job. Despite all this the Senior Wrangler seemed to take quite a shine to her. Although her situation of vanishing when sustained by only one person's belief may spell doom for Bilious, it is more likely that the Senior Wrangler did not really believe in her. He may have taken the same attitude towards her as wizards, policemen and witches take towards the gods in general; that, or he simply couldn't quite believe his luck that someone of a female persuasion was showing any interest in him.
