Brownies are fictional characters seen in American Dragon: Jake Long. They are small and easily angered, but fearless creatures. They first appear on Draco Island[1], and a Brownie individual called Reggie is featured in two later episodes[2][3].
Brownies are usually ill-tempered and will tend to bite if threatened. This also applies when they're in a bad mood, and even when they're in a good mood.
Physical Appearance[]
Brownies are extremely small elf-like creatures, about no bigger than an adult fist. They have pointed ears similar to elves, and different shades of red hair depending on the individual. They wear tunics, pants, jackets, and shoes made of cloth scraps and use ropes for their belts.
Powers and Abilities[]
Although Brownies do not actually possess magical abilities, they can be quite troublesome and mischievous adversaries. Because of their small size, they can squeeze into tight spaces and can crawl under the clothes of someone caught unaware. They are especially hard to manage when they gang up on their enemies. However, Brownies are known for not being very smart and for their love of shiny things which can make for a good distraction.
A trio of Brownies managed to single-handedly bind the American Dragon in a tight rope[1].
