Fairy - Green Mouse of the Tall Grass
This mouse is known as "green of the tall grass" because of the fur on the top of its back: small, quackgrass-like leaves. An excellent camouflage for this rodent, which gives off a fairy-tale aura. It is often used as a mount by the fairies themselves.
Of course, eating this mouse raw is not recommended for mortals, as it causes violent stomach upsets. Not because of any poison in the flesh, but simply because the human stomach is not designed to digest raw, unprepared meat. Cooked, it serves only as an appetiser for certain creatures of the Little People, appreciated for its flesh which is ‘sweet and sparkling in the mouth’ thanks to its affiliation with fairy magic.
On the other hand, the blades of grass on its back are a more relevant subject for this grimoire.
Essence of its affiliation with the fairytale world, they can be cut to recover them. A little water to irrigate the plant and good care for the animal will enable you to grow these sprigs. Ingestion of this alchemical element, which tastes ‘sweet and sparkling’ again, causes a metamorphosis into a fairy-like being. This involves a shrinkage to a size of around one span, a loss of adult characteristics (hair, genital characteristics, among others), an enlargement of the iris to the point where there is no longer any sclera, the appearance of glitter, a shrill voice, the development of wings and an increase in the subject's beauty. The individual often gradually develops a bond with nature and a benevolent character.

There should be a few mice in the zoo, if you wish. They are very docile and social with the living beings, making friends with one will be easy. As for fairies, however, at least this specific type of fairy, there are currently none in the Manor. It is possible to find a place to meet them if needed.
(OOC : Rigole pas, c'est exactement de ça que c'est tiré ! XD La Souris Verte des Herbes-Hautes, c'était le nom de l'ingrédient alchimique qu'on avait créé avec des potes, inspiré par la comptine. Même si cette souris-ci ne finit pas en escargot...)
It is true that one can think of this nursery rhyme as having much less magical origins, however.

Thank you for the clarification.
The effect of the grass growing on this mouse is semi-permanent. A spell or alchemical ingredient that transforms it into a human or other creature will remove this fairy aspect and all that it implies (see below). Beyond that, as long as there is no rewriting of this individual's essence, it will remain in this form.
Regarding personality, this has been described at the end of the page. The specimen develops a more pronounced benevolence than when it was human. It may also develop a more mischievous side, but always respecting this kindness induced by the transformation. Apart from these two character traits, which can soften certain innate flaws or malevolence, the subject retains its personality almost intact.
The connection with nature created through metamorphosis is, at the beginning of its new existence as a fairy, an intuitive knowledge. The young fairy will be able to make a flower bloom, understand what an animal is saying, but she will have to learn to master these new intuitions to turn them into true knowledge and expertise. Consider that a fairy created by ingesting a blade of green mouse grass is as gifted in fairy magic as a 5-year-old human child is in accounting. The child can count, can understand certain principles, but they must learn if they wants to go further.
Therefore, when it comes to knowledge of the fairy hierarchy, the transformed subject retains the basics she had on the subject. If the names Titania and Oberon are unknown to her, it will be the same once in fairy form.
And finally, your question about the soul... As mentioned above, it is still the same person, but with a different body, a slight personality change, and new basic skills to refine. The soul remains largely intact following this transformation.
