*Fwoosh*
Ahem, sorry, now that that's done, let me introduce you to the Van Enfeus. They came from a really fiery corner of Voltar, so do be careful--they have a tendency to try to light things on fire.

These two are Taika and Rhiagan. Taika saved Rhiagan and then brought him home to her parents, but they took exception to keeping a gryphon around and tossed him out, so she followed him. Isn't that so romantic? *sniffles* They'd be quite happy to offer you a lovely little gryphon (or phoenix, as the case may be) to take home. They'd like to inform you that they are not liable for any fire damage caused, though.
Lineage rules:
1. Do not release.
2. Do not freeze. If you accidentally freeze, please send the egg/hatchling back to me, or to Master Belmos.
3. Please don't make hippogryphs.
4. If you could give your Van Enfeu a nice name and breed him or her, it would be lovely. Breeding is not required, though. (Neither is naming, but if you do so please make it a good one, as in proper capitalization and all that.)
Their crest is by Rosehill, by the way.
And now that that's done, we have the exceptional Exceptions! They're a much more watery family, good for if you don't like having your things set on fire.

Meet IO and EOF. Got something fishy in your code? Maybe they're the ones to blame. Or maybe it's one of their offspring. But hey, if you have problems with your program, then everyone else should too. So help spread Exceptions around, will you?
Lineage rules:
1. Name your feesh after an exception. JAVA exceptions are preferred, but if you have a favorite exception in another language, go right ahead.
2. Don't freeze - if you don't want an Exception, hatch it and send it back to me. They're koi, they grow quickly.
3. If you do accidentally freeze, send to me or to Master Belmos.
4. Koi only in this lineage, please. We only want efficient code in this lineage. Capricorns compile too slowly.
Want an Exception or a Van Enfeu baby? Just ask :3
