Character Notes

 * The Black Fairy is featured in the title card for "The Black Fairy".
 * The fairy incantation to summon her is: "Let the night sky tremble, as the Dark Star shall fall. Awake, Black Fairy, and heed my call."
 * The Black Fairy can actually be the oldest person who has ever lived. This is supported by the fact that she was banished to Dark Realm when Rumplestiltskin was just a child. But time runs faster in Dark Realm as Gideon spent 28 years in there while hardly one day lasted in our world. So, by the time she came to Storybrooke, she could be thousands of years old.
