Kwamis

Kwami are sprite-like creatures that help people with Miraculouses transform into animal-themed super beings.

Appearance
Generally, kwami are small with large heads and tiny bodies. Whatever animal theme their Miraculous has affects their appearances, like Tikki being red with black spots and antennae like a ladybug and Plagg being black with green eyes, cat ears, and a tail like a cat.

Abilities
Normally, kwami can fly and levitate.

Kwami inhabit pieces of Miraculous jewelry, like earrings or a ring, in order to give the person wearing them the ability to transform into superheroes. The transformation can last indefinitely unless their special power (e.g. Ladybug's Lucky Charm or Cat Noir's Cataclysm) is used, at which point the wearer has about five minutes until they revert to their normal form. To regain power, kwami need to refuel by eating food.

Trivia
ru:Категория:Квами Kwami
 * A kwami is a "quantic kami." In Japanese, kami (神) means "God."
 * According to Thomas Astruc, the name of every kwami has to be a short name with a double letter in it.
 * Four of the seven kwami are seen in season 1, along with making appearances during the theme song.
 * Also, in the theme song, the four kwami fly into a chest box with seven sections, each section including the piece of jewelry that the kwami is connected to. Three sections that kwami do not appear for in the theme song are the Blue Miraculous, the Orange Miraculous, and the Yellow Miraculous.
 * The box appears to be patterned after an East-Asian influence, as evidenced by the octagonal construction, the flower-patterned inlay, and the stylized, red relief. It's currently unknown why this is.
 * The flower is probably styled after the cherry blossom, though it could be based on any other bloom of the malus genus.
 * If Volpina is a Miraculous holder, then a fox-themed kwami will likely exist.
 * In "Timebreaker", Tikki is able to sense the Ladybug coming from the future.
 * Tikki is able to become intangible to move through solid objects, but it's unknown if the other kwami have this ability.
 * Tikki reveals that she is more than 5,000 years old in "The Pharaoh", suggesting that kwami can live for thousands of years. It is unknown if any of the other kwami are as old as Tikki, though.
 * Kwami are aware of what the people who possess their Miraculous do when transformed.
 * However, they cannot communicate with their holders when they are transformed.
