Kwamis

"I'll be your friend! besides i do look alot like you! I can even make you a superhero!"

- Red

 are sprite-like creatures that give power to people with Miraculouses to transform into super beings.

Appearance
Generally, kwamis are small with large heads and tiny bodies.

Abilities
Normally, kwamis can fly and levitate. They can also become intangible to pass through solid objects, like locker doors. Even though they are small, kwamis appear to have enough strength to hold things that are large and/or heavy. They live for thousands of years — possibly forever — having been around since the creation of the Miraculouses.

Kwamis inhabit pieces of Miraculous jewelry, like earrings or a ring, in order to give the person wearing them the ability to transform into superheroes and gain a specific power. The transformation can last indefinitely unless the Miraculous' special power (e.g. Red Noir's Red Aura or Verre Arc's Rainbow Glass) is used, at which point the wearer has about five minutes until they revert to their normal form and the kwami leaves the Miraculous. To regain power to strengthen themselves and transform their wearer again, kwamis need to refuel by eating food. Some kwamis have a preference for specific foods: for instance, Red will only eat Pizza.
