Ilex is a Fairy guard who protects Princess Ervain.
He wears armor and carries a large Corseque, and is rather silent and obedient.
Is it obvious yet, eh?
Ilex is another name for Holly. The letter "i" looks like an "L" in this font and that annoys me! It's "iLex", and the fact that it looks like it either says LLex or Hex really kills the joke. It's supposed to be like Alex. As in Alex Murphy.
He's Fairy Robocop.
