Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Yulspiro
Birthday: Tuesday, December 26, 2023
Owner: WerewolfGuinn
Element: Water
Yulspiro hatchlings are small enough to curl up in the palm of a magi's hand - which they will happily do, generating just enough water to stay moist. For their safety, magi should ensure they're confined somewhere where they can't be accidentally stepped on. The hatchling's wings are barely more than tiny stumps when first hatched, but these wings will grow as the hatchling does. Magi can keep their hatchling happy by providing it with safe places to explore, especially if they hide sugary treats for the hatchling to sniff out. As a bonus, magi will never have to clean or change the yulspiro's water, as yulspiro will keep their water pristine even from a young age.
The yulspiro is an odd creature: a wyrm at first glance, but ones whose wings are too soft to let it take flight. Instead, these supple wings curl up as the yulspiro grows, until each one forms a tree-like shape. When the yulspiro is especially happy, tiny bits of light in all the colours of the rainbow appear within these curls. Yulspiro are able to breathe both air and water, so can easily spend time on land; however, they prefer to at least have a water source nearby so they can keep their skin from drying out. Fortunately yulspiro have the ability to generate their own water, at least enough for a puddle to roll around in, and can also purify dirty water with just a touch. Yulspiro are naturally friendly and curious - magi may wake to the occasional damp tongue in their ear in the middle of the night if they take one to raise - and can be bribed to do almost anything with an offer of sugar.
