Sprites are a type of Item, Gameplay Mechanic, and AI in Fortnite that were introduced in Chapter 6: Season 1.
Description and Behavior[]
Sprites are a type of gameplay mechanic which will roam around certain areas of the map, Some Sprites are AIs and can potentially flee from the player when they get close. Sprites have a wide range of uses, from mobility, to unlocking loot to aid in battle.
Water and Air Sprites[]
Water and Air Sprites will flee from the player if approached or attacked and can be picked up and carried, which enables the player to access shrines. When a carried Sprite is not the currently held item, it will take the place of the player's Back Bling. Depositing a Sprite into a Sprite Shrine will free the Sprite and grant the player Epic tier loot including a Boon corresponding to the element of the Sprite. When picked up, Water, Air, Dash and Superman Sprite Sprites are of Epic rarity. When dropped, Sprites will go back to being Wildlife.
Carried sprites could have been given to Bushranger in Nightshift Forest during Chapter 6: Season 1 to shift the time to day and grant the player a Solunar Key.

When a weapon is given to an Earth Sprite, it will eat the weapon, giving back a random Legendary weapon, most commonly a Shotgun. Earth Sprites have an Icon 
on the map that shows where they are.

Sprites are spirits roaming around Oninoshima following the return of Magic on the Island. Before the Shattering War, Sprites were worshiped to the now forgotten Sprite Shrines.
Personality[]
Sprites are described as innocent, endearing, helpful creatures. Water and Air Sprites can sometimes be fearful of strangers depending on the situation, while Earth Sprites remain much calmer. Moreover, while the first two are unable to speak, the latter are able to do so and are endowed with a great intelligence. Dash and Superman sprites loves to follow and interact with basically everyone that's not demons.
The only known people that can communicate and understand sprites are Bushranger.[3] and Jade.
