The Three Little Pigs are, as their name suggests, a family of three pigs who once lived in the Fable homeworld known as the Homelands.

History

When the Adversary conquered the Homelands, all of the regions' inhabitants went into Exile on Earth. Fables who were human in appearance were able to take up refuge in the underground Fable community in Manhattan known as Fabletown. Non-human Fables, including animals, were taken to a special location in upstate New York called the Farm.

This arrangement didn't sit well with all the Farm's inhabitants, however, and a resistance to take back the Homelands was soon formed with Dun and Posey Pig among the ringleaders. Since he had a history of sneaking off the Farm anyway, Colin was sent to Fabletown, both to get a spare key to the Business Office and to look for anybody who was sympathetic to their cause. Because he came back without anything to show, Colin was killed.

After the resistance was quelled, Dun and Posey were both executed for their crimes. In their place, Rose Red had the three giant brothers, Johnny, Donny, and Lonny, magically transformed into the new three little pigs, which they don't seem to mind at all.

Notes

  • Dun, Posey, and Colin were actually cousins, not brothers.
