Sirenix is the second Fairy Form introduced in Season 5. It is parallel to Harmonix.


 * Previous Transformation: Harmonix / Disenchantix
 * Next Transformation: Bloomix / Shape-Shifting Witch

Overview
In Season 5, the Winx meet with Faragonda to discuss their newfound knowledge of their Believix powers being less effective underwater, and they learn that they must acquire Sirenix in order to defeat Tritannus. Faragonda tells them that Sirenix is an ancient power that was born of the magic of the oceans, and that no one has acquired Sirenix for a long time.

She informs that that in order to begin their quest, they must find the Sirenix Book, but the only person who knows its location is Daphne, Bloom's sister and the last fairy to acquire Sirenix. When Bloom asks Daphne about the location of the Sirenix Book, Daphne tells her not to look for it because it is dangerous. When the Ancestral Witches attacked Domino, she acquired Sirenix and was ready to use it against them but the Ancesral Witches had placed a spell on Sirenix and when Daphne tried to use it, it turned against her and caused her to become a spirit without a body. Bloom ends up persuading Daphne, who reveals that the Sirenix Book is in the Magic Archive of Alfea.

The Source of Sirenix is found in the cave where Daphne dwells in Lake Roccaluce which protects Sirenix and grants it to fairies who have completed the Sirenix Quest. If a fairy does not complete the Sirenix Quest within one lunar cycle, they will lose their powers forever.

Original
The outfits consist of a sparkly mermaid skin-like top, a belt, scale-like colorful leggings with fins and boots with ribbons wrapped around them. The hair is in a ponytail, with highlight streaks and the hair changes its colors when they go underwater. The fairies also wear bands made of a piece of jewelry, flower, or marine creatures and ribbons around their arms, and a piece of jewelry in their hair. The wings are colorful and seashell-shaped.

Redesign
The outfits still consist of a top and leggings with fins and boots, but instead of mermaid skin-texture, now it is scale-texture. The outfits in general are more colorful than the previously monotone designs. The cut-outs on the tops are no longer available, and altered outfits have more bands and ties and jewels on them. The accessories (hair and hands) are altered, they loose some aquatic traits. The hair styles are unchanged, but the highlights are recolored to match with initial concept (Stella's highlights are now reddish pink and Flora's pink highlights are now visible). There are short translucent frills on each side of the top, like on the Harmonix concept art.

Dark Sirenix
The outfits consists of a body suit, a pairs of stiletto with fins, a glove made of the same material. They wear smeared makeup on their eyes and lips. The hair is in ponytails or pigtails. They have tentacles.

Sirenix
In order for a fairy to earn Sirenix, they must find the Gem of Self-Confidence, the Gem of Empathy, and the Gem of Courage. After that, they need to activate the magic spring of Lake Roccaluce by using the Source of Sirenix.

Dark Sirenix
It is unknown if a witch can earn Sirenix by completing Sirenix Quest or not as it is a fairy power. In the Trix's case, after Tritannus forced Daphne to tell him where the source of Sirenix power was, Tritannus headed to Lake Roccaluce to destroy the Source of Sirenix, so her Sirenix cannot be protected from being stolen by him. After he destroyed the source, Tritannus absorbed Daphne's Sirenix powers and used his trident to grant the Trix Sirenix powers, which were mixed with his pollution powers.

Sirenix Clues
The Sirenix Clues were riddles given to the Winx to find the gems of Self-Confidence, Empathy, and Courage.


 * Andros:"With every twist and turn, the deeper you go until the Shimmering Shells sing with the ocean's voice."


 * Solaria:"Venture where the dark depth of the ocean shine. A precious gem, self-confidence, lies in the deeps."


 * Melody:"Like a ruby shining under the sea, corals are strings that you feel in a key."

"The Winx had to understand the message in the Ruby Reef's music. It leads them to Data Bridge Castle in which Aisha, Bloom and Tecna have unity."
 * Zenith:"To find the gem, you must understand the message in the harp's music."


 * Linphea:"Find the Flowers of the Depths. It answers only to courage."


 * Domino:"Find the Yellow Reef and snatch courage from its jaws."

Trivia

 * The name "Sirenix" is derived from the word "siren", meaning "each of a number of women or winged creatures whose singing lured unwary sailors onto rocks". These legendary creatures were found in Greek mythology, and while they were originally half-human bird creatures, they later came to be portrayed as half-human sea creatures, or mermaids. Many variations of the word "siren" translate to "mermaid" due to its colloquial usage.
 * After Sirenix was leaked at Comic Con, it was redesigned.
 * Sirenix adopted some ideas from Harmonix's concepts.
 * The fact that Sirenix has the ability to grant wishes may be derived from the fact that in Mythology, mermaids have the ability to grant wishes.
