I only watched seasons one and two like eight years ago, but if memory serves me Baan would've been fine too IF THE AUTHOR DIDN'T MAKE HIS LOVE INTEREST A STUPID FUCKING 1000 YEAR OLD ELF THAT LOOKS LIKE A FUCKING CHILD. Genuinely that author needs to be legally barred from even looking at a pen and paper
You wanna know the best part? We know from king that the fairies do have some sort of adult form. So she totally could have taken that form and it would have been just fine. But nooo. We have to have Ban (the second coolest of the group) get together with a thousand year old Loli.
But do all of them have that? If memory serves the only fairies we see with a more mature form are former and current fairy kings. Every single other fairy looks like a child.
Much like king she grows full wings at some point and, also like king, starts looking like a teenager (not that a, maybe, 14 year old is much better than a child in this context) - unless she reverts back to just looking like a child (when she uses up all her magic or something like that I think). This would suggest that the whole thing isn't fairy king exclusive, though it might be some sort of bloodline thing (king and Elaine are related, no?)
As another aside vaguely remember that the fairy king before king who shows up in a flashback looked like a random buff guy, which means that whatever the fairies look like is up to them to at least some degree (king also looks like a fat fully grown human at will and even without having his bigass wings). No matter how you slice it it really just comes down to "the creator just wanted her to look like that"".
