Brownies

Brownies are creatures that look like humans, with the exception that they are much smaller. Brownies fix things that are broken, improving them where possible. Also, when ingredients are left out, they will bake something delicious, although they always attempt to make it into a dessert. It is mentioned by Grandma Sorenson in the second book that brownies invented the well-known, delicious dessert, brownies, which is how they got their name. In the first book, when goblins and other unfriendly creatures from Fablehaven raid and wreck the house on Midsummer's Eve, the brownies repair it in an unbelievably short amount of time. In the second book, Kendra and Seth have to shrink themselves and pass through the Brownie community to get inside the house. In book three, the brownies become affected by the shadow plague and fill the house with deadly traps.
