Livy is the Pixie of Messages.[1][2] Livy is not bonded to anyone, perhaps because of their[4] duty. In Pixieville, they work as a mailman and is also a member of the men's Pixieball team, which is called the Pixieville Lightning.
Appearance[]
Livy is a slightly tanned-skinned Pixie with bright sea blue eyes and dark blue eyelashes. Above their right eye is a sky blue mark; while on their left is a darker blue mark. Their hair is sandy blonde with a curly flip, reaching their neck, while their bangs are very short and pulled back. They are barefoot and wear ankle bracelets with wings, similar to Roman god Mercury.[1]
In PopPixie, other than having smoother hair and a dark brown side handbag, Livy appears to be the same as their Winx Club self.
Civilian[]
Series[]
Livy wears a magenta teardrop shaped hair clip, a blue and light green colored shirt, resembling an envelope, blue shorts with a single dark blue line going down the side, matching their shirt, and they are also barefooted; along with sky blue wristbands and wing anklets. Their wings are blue and sparkly, resembling insect wings.

PopPixie Form[]
When transformed, Livy resembles a Dragon Fly. They wear a blue tee-shirt with lighter blue and multiple colors striped in; blue pants with green on the outside, and blue, white, and orange boots/shoes with matching armbands. Livy also has on a blue-lilac V shaped piece on their head with a small orange center and a dark blue half-circle on both sides of their head with lime green and orange on them, almost resembling eyes.
Pajamas[]
He wears a T-shirt similar to his casual attire, but the only difference is that it has short sleeves. He also wears orange pants.
Personality[]
They have a habit of being forgetful, but what they lack in memory, they make up in heart. Sometimes when Livy has to send a message, they get so excited that they leave without even knowing what the message is. They usually have to write down the messages they deliver. They are also shown to bump into things quite often as a result of flying too fast and/or not watching where they are going. Livy is the fastest pixie and is hard to catch; some people believe that they have the ability of super speed. Their folded message surf board can sense if someone needs to send a message.
As a mail carrier, they take their job very seriously, delivering mail every day, and in their PopPixie form, help others around the city. Livy is also not afraid of a fight, willing to use even physical force, as they have fought off Elves and other dark creatures on more than one occasion. They are also capable of trickery, as demonstrated when dealing with gnomes who do not want to open the door for mail, so Livy tricked them by showing them a picture of gold in a peephole, playing on their obsession with money, so that they will open the door.
According to the book The Power of Charmix, in their free time, Livy develops their short-term memory and in PopPixie, their memory has already improved and they no longer write down reminders for themselves and work perfectly. They also developed a wisdom over time, as when Amore wanted to use a potion to impress Ranger Robinson, Livy said that magic can't always solve problems and strongly advised her to talk to him normally. They are kind to animals and will not leave them in trouble, even sacrificing their own time. Livy has a tactical mind, as she immediately realized that in order to destroy the monster from the mirror, they needed to take the mirror away from him and break it.

Books[]
In Un ballo per Bloom, Brandon sent Stella an invitation, but Livy lost it before she could give it to the fairy. Livy's forgetfulness ended up being a good thing, as by the time Brandon arrived, Stella realized Bloom was in danger and asked him for help in getting them all to Eraklyon.
In I magigi diciotto anni di Stella, Glim was leading the fireflies in the Dark Forest as usual when Livy came upon her. The pixie was annoyed, but Livy explained that he was exhausted from working overtime delivering messages. Livy was currently looking for Aisha, and Glim, no longer angry, motioned for the fireflies to line up in pairs and show Livy the way to the two-story pixie house where Aisha was sleeping with Piff.
Livy finds Aisha in the pixie house. How did the huge fairy fit in there? With magic, of course! Livy didn't want to wake Piff and Aisha, who were sleeping soundly, but the message still had to be delivered. She used the feather to wake Piff, and the little pixie's happy sleep spell was broken. Aisha and her pixie were annoyed at being disturbed, and hoped there was a good reason. Livy had delivered a letter from the Royal Palace of Solaria, informing the King and Queen of Princess Stella's first public appearance, her birthday, and an evening party where guests were required to arrive in appropriate dress code.
In Un Appuntamento per Aisha, Ninfea reported through Livy that the Dream Turtle, one of the rarest and most valuable animals in the Dark Forest, had been kidnapped. When asked how it happened, Faragonda suggested that Aisha read Ninfea's message herself.
What happened was this: Zing and Livy were playing tag that day when they heard a suspicious noise. The pixies stopped playing and hid among the needles of a silver pine to investigate. They saw three cloaked and hooded figures cautiously make their way through the forest, stop under the pine, and look around, searching for something. Then one of the figures reached out and sent a bolt of energy into a nearby bush, where they retrieved the sleeping Dream Turtle and placed it in a golden cage. The three then retreated into the forest.
Since there were only two pixies, they could do nothing, but Layla did not blame them for this and tried to console Livy. Then the fairy turned to Faragonda, asking if she was going to organize a rescue expedition? Although Ninfea asked for help, Faragonda does not know what to do: in half an hour she needs to fly to a very important magical congress, she cannot do this. In this case, Aisha offered to help the Winx.
Magical Abilities[]
Livy is able to fly or ran at high speeds even without his paper surfboard. In PopPixie they are also strong, easily lifting a huge tree and holding off an "aquarium car" two times their size at a high speed. When fighting enemies, they use magical attacks.
