* '''Justified''': Alice was insulted and/or made a victim by the Bob's parents, so the curse is done to their child as RevengeByProxy.

** Alice grants blessings in exchange for an intangible price that makes the "blessing" actually a curse in the process. For example:

* '''Parodied:''' Good fairies go to a HeroAcademy, while bad ones go to an AcademyOfEvil. Both sides learns how to be {{Fairy Godmother}}s, but they do these things and go about their duties on the opposite ends of the moral scale.
* '''Deconstructed:''' Due to the unpredictable nature of magic and interventions by good fairies allied with her charge, Alice has to observe her then-charge Bob (who she has cursed with a CruelAndUnusualDeath at a specific time and place) to ensure that every facet of the curse has been met. In doing so, Alice starts to develop a soft-spot for her godchild, even considering him to be like a son to her. By the end, she changes her mind and tries to stop the curse from reaching its conclusion, [[SelfFulfillingProphecy only for her meddling to be the cause of his fate instead]].
* '''Reconstructed:''' ???
* '''Zig Zagged:''' Alice "blesses" Bob with [[FearlessFool complete fearlessness]] under the delusion that it is what he wants. This gets Bob killed and Alice takes no responsibility for it. It turns out that when ''she'' was a baby, ''she'' was cursed by ''her'' Fairy Godmother Carol with the "blessing" of bliss, taking away her capacity to feel shame or guilt about anything and turning her into a sociopath. While Alice is classified as ChaoticNeutral (when she is meant to be a LawfulGood FairyGodmother), Carol is very much ChaoticEvil, thus making Alice a second-generation FairyDevilmother, and would eventually go on to use her fairy powers to eventually create a third Devilmother in the process.
* '''Averted:''' Fairies would much rather mind their own business and try to stay out of human affairs.
* '''Enforced:''' The writer is much more interested in authenticity than SugarBowl Disney antics, thus portrays the Gentry as being like the mischievous morally-grey race that mythology and folklore that the FairyGodmother trope spawned from.

* '''Logical Extreme:''' TheFairFolk are all actually demons that live to instill suffering, chaos and evil onto the world and are treated as such.

* '''Defied:''' Before the King's first-born child is born, he has the castle covered head-to-toe in iron before having every soldier outfitted with iron armor and weapons to get ready to go to war with the Fey for an eventual war with the species.

* '''Discussed:''' "Unlike what you may have seen in Disney movies, fairies are not going to give you a dress and a prince out of the goodness of their hearts. They're much more likely to rob you, cage you or kill you with its paranormal [=STDs=] after they magically roofy you."

* '''Untwisted:''' Alice is a {{Goth}} that slips her contempt for humans in every sentence she speaks, but she gives legitimately good blessings to her charges anyway. When her most recent charge Bob dies of illness, she is summoned to court on suspicions that her magical gift is what killed him. Eventually she is found innocent, only to confess afterwards that she actually ''was'' the one that killed him.
* '''Unparodied:''' An ArtifactOfDoom that belonged to Alice is a MagicWand similar to wands wielded by other Fairy Godmothers, but it twists all spells that are normally entirely positive or harmless into curses, hexes and other forms of dark magic, thus any Fairy Godmother that uses it end up condemning their charges with an unfortunate fate not matter how pure their intentions are.
* '''Gender Inverted:''' Alex is a Fairy Devilfather that curses Bobbie to grow up with a {{Gonk}} face and be undesirable to all men, thus leaving her a burden to her conservative, nobility family.
