Wisps are a rare, largely unclassified and under-examined species that are mostly unique to the Alva Islands and the far north of Odenseye. Due to their timid, almost paranoid nature, they are incredibly rare to see at all and, given current knowledge, are not possible to capture.
Wisps are the only known non-sentient creature that are capable of understanding magic (known due to their visible ability to influence their speed), though the extent of what other, if any, advantages this might entail is unknown. Their reproductive cycle is entirely unknown, with theories ranging from self-duplication to miasmic spread. Nothing is known for sure, however, and few attempts are made to observe these creatures.
Their already infrequent sightings have decreased exponentially since NY 600, with some theorizing a rapid die-off for an unknown reason. No remains have been found.
