The Chess Fairy
The title clues that this has to do with fairy chess pieces. A list can be found here. From the flavor text, we see that these are mate-in-1 puzzles for the team with the fairy piece (white) and should figure out which fairy chess piece is which. Each one is used exactly once.

2. Princess (Bishop + Knight). b4#.
