"Fortune Fairy", known as "Fortune Telling Witch" ( (うらな) () (じょ) Uranai Majo) in the Japanese version, is an anime-only archetype consisting of six monsters, each named and colored according to their own Attribute. The card text on each "Fortune Fairy" tells the fortune of the person who draws it, along with a listing of a lucky number, color and item.

All are Spellcaster-Type Normal Monsters with 0 ATK and DEF. Each have a different Level, ranging from 1 to 6.

In the first episode that they were used in a Duel, it appears that their play style focuses on summoning as many as possible and as fast as possible, using cards such as "Luck Loan" and "Unacceptable Result", then using "Miracle Stone" to increase their ATK.[1]

The "Fortune Fairies" were used by Carly Carmine in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Carly's use of these monsters partially mimicked Sartorius's use of his "Arcana Force" monsters as tarot cards.

All of these cards have a fortune written on them, with lucky number, color etc. The lucky color and number correspond to that monsters' Attribute and Level. The fortune may be based on the luck of you having it in your hand, e.g. it would be unlucky to have a level 6 Normal Monster with 0 ATK and DEF.

The "Fortune Fairy" archetype is playable in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Tag Force 4-6.

After Carly became a Dark Signer, her cards evolved into "Fortune Ladies", which are older versions of the "Fortune Fairies" she had.[2]

Starting in the English-version Duel Terminal 1 (TCG), the "Fortune Fairies" appear in the "Card Only Get" mode.

It also seems that most of the fortunes correspond to effects of their "Fortune Lady" counterparts.
