The Invisible, (PROSE: The Shining Man [+]Loading...["The Shining Man (novel)"]) also known as the Sidhe realm (PROSE: Autumn Mist [+]Loading...["Autumn Mist (novel)"]) or the "Lost Lands", (TV: Small Worlds [+]Loading...["Small Worlds (TV story)"]) known popularly as Fairyland (TVThe Dalek Invasion of Earth [+]Loading...["The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)"], The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe [+]Loading...["The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (TV story)"], etc.) or Faeryland, (GAME"Who Changed History?" [+]Part of The Gunfighters, Loading...{"namedpart":"Who Changed History?","1":"The Gunfighters (game)"}) and referred to as the Marchenland by Jurgen Leitz, (PROSE: Autumn Mist [+]Loading...["Autumn Mist (novel)"]) was the plane of reality where fairies originated.

Nature[[edit] | [edit source]]

By one account, the Invisible ran along a groove next to the plane of reality that humans occupied, on a different frequency to what they could perceive; (PROSE: The Shining Man [+]Loading...["The Shining Man (novel)"]) another account similarly documented that with the Sidhe being able to perceive eleven dimensions instead of just four, their realm, which could overlap with any given part of the Earth's surface, was generally "out of phase" with human perception, even though it was part of the same space-time continuum as the human "world", as opposed to being a parallel universe of its own. (PROSE: Autumn Mist [+]Loading...["Autumn Mist (novel)"])

The Fairies took their Chosen Ones there, including Jasmine Pierce. (TV: Small Worlds [+]Loading...["Small Worlds (TV story)"])

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

This section's awfully stubby.

Please help by adding some more information.

When the Earth was young, the veil between the Invisible and the Visible was thinner, allowing fairies to cross the divide and wreak havok in the human dimension. (PROSE: The Shining Man [+]Loading...["The Shining Man (novel)"])

One account suggested that the Toymaker's realm of "shifting illusions" may have been, or been akin to, "Faeryland", and followed the same rules. (GAME"Who Changed History?" [+]Part of The Gunfighters, Loading...{"namedpart":"Who Changed History?","1":"The Gunfighters (game)"}) As such, when the First Doctor, after escaping from the Toymaker, impulsively ate one of the hard sweets he'd gotten from the Toymaker's servant Cyril, (TVThe Celestial Toymaker [+]Loading...["The Celestial Toymaker (TV story)"]) he may have broken one of the key rules which "any visitor to Faeryland kn[e]w", putting himself into the Toymaker's power all over again. This suggested that the Toymaker may have covertly puppeteered the Doctor's entire, subsequent adventure in Tombstone, Arizona. (GAME: "Who Changed History?" [+]Part of The Gunfighters, Loading...{"namedpart":"Who Changed History?","1":"The Gunfighters (game)"})

The Ninth Doctor once travelled through the Invisible with Madame Vastra. (COMIC: The Lost Dimension [+]Loading...["The Lost Dimension (comic story)"])

When Lily Arwell expressed her belief that an whimsical, snowy planet was "Fairyland", the Eleventh Doctor told her to "grow up", not because Fairyland wasn't real but because it looked "completely different". (TV: The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe [+]Loading...["The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (TV story)"])

Other references[[edit] | [edit source]]

Ashton mockingly asked Ian Chesterton and Larry Madison if they came from Fairyland when they displayed ignorance of the Slyther. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth [+]Loading...["The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)"])

When Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart asked the Eighth Doctor if Avalon was Fairyland, the Doctor answered, "Sort of." (PROSE: The Shadows of Avalon [+]Loading...["The Shadows of Avalon (novel)"])

Footnotes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  1. The suggestion in GAME: The Gunfighters [+]Loading...["The Gunfighters (game)"] that the Toymaker's realm may be some aspect of Faeryland would make TV: The Celestial Toymaker [+]Loading...["The Celestial Toymaker (TV story)"] its DWU debut, and add its appearances to the Invisible's.
