Does your first line begin with no indention when you run it? It should. That was the problem last time. There seems to be an issue with the paste or something.
when I copy from here the problem goes away. I think something on the forum causes the issue.

Code tags on the forum add extra tabs to everything. It's annoying and terrible.

Yup, I edited the original post and now links to an google doc with the code.
Everyone can use it now?

Okay, it works now!
Just so you know, about once a minute after the program is first run, without me doing anything, it creates another Fairykind.
Also, are Starter fairies the same thing as Spontaneous fairies like Promise?
Oh! I made this, and it might be helpful and relevant for this project!
It lists the name and description of a type of fairy, and whether they are unique, breeders, or spontaneous. And whatever other information is available about them.
List of all Fairies and Descriptions
Berrybush: (not unique)
Dewflower: (not unique)
Leaflet: (Spontaneous) Wings shaped like tree leaves. They are around five feet tall. They appear in hollow spaces that sometimes happen in some trees.
Sky-veil: (Spontaneous?) They have one extra sense each. Their wings are billowy with dozens or hundreds of gossamer veils speckled with tiny motes of light, each individually so thin as to be near-invisibly translucent, each a slightly different shade of midnight. Where enough of them overlap, the effect is like a dark sky full of stars. They can subsist indefinitely on natural light and rainwater.
Stonecrusher: (Breeder)
Razorfeet: (not unique)
???: (?) Less than one foot tall, with dragonfly wings.
[Secret]: (Unique) Kind of tall. With beautiful wings like fine sprays of sparkling rainbow dust, which continually disintegrate and reform. Anyone who would ordinarily be her vassal is instead unable to be a vassal.
Sunshine Tepal: (Breeder) Like Indian Paintbrushes, orange-red or yellow with tufts of matching petals instead of hair, averaging eight inches high, with wings that look like helicopter seeds.
Creekpearl: (not unique)
Painted Tailwing: (not unique) Three feet tall, with blue hair and gaudy butterfly wings.
Littlesinger (not unique): can project voice over long distances
Duskflutter (not unique): sees in the dark.
Crystalswift: (?) Can teleport up to eight inches at a time.
Glasslight: (not unique) excellent vision
Rainbowsprite: (not unique) perfect memory
Fallingstar: (not unique): it is impossible to get a solid object, people included, out of a fallingstar's hand until they give it up or it ceases to be a solid object.
Lithe: (not unique): run very fast
Marigold Calyx: (?) Sees heat
Silkpuff: (?) Sleeps 24 hours once a year
Flamewreath: (?) controls fire at a touch
Inkvein: (?) acute hearing
From the Sandboxen
Rivergreen: (Breeder?) They come in clans
Lilybright: (Breeder)
???: (?) Wings like moving curtains. Less than five feet tall.
???: (?) Wings like a beetle casing. Less than five feet tall.
???: (?) Wings like fish fins growing out of the back. Less than five feet tall.

I already had moooost of those (and also Hilary's a nutbrown) but I added all the named kinds I'd missed and sorted into 'unique/spontaneous/breeder/unknown' on the wiki http://effulgence.wikia.com/wiki/Catego ... _(Visitor) will go back and add the appearance details later

Starters are the same as Spontaneous
Thaaaaanks. I can't quite use the same level of detail (mostly because the code is all Kuusky's work and she already did too much) and I am not sure how to integrate some of these sugestions, but I will try to incorporate some of these elements. I actually like that you can get a "leaflet" with completely different powers from canon xD.
Anyone has any idea how to classify "grabbing solid objects" like Fallingstar? I am inclined to classify it as "strength powers", despite not actually being strength.

=D I think that's pretty cool too! I think it'd be neat if it were at least hypothetically possible to get the names and powers of canon fairy kinds, also though.
I might call them "holding powers" or if you needed an adjective "willful holding powers" maybe?
Also, yes I apparently missed Nutbrowns, which are telekinetic.

I actually tempted to add that to possible powers, or better yet "not letting go of objects unless they decide to or become not-solid powers". I usally try to keep the powers vague so they can fit the output.
I also missed "telekinesis" for powers.
Also, if you guys want to add variable (like different power descriptors like "sonic") or anything else you are free.
