General
Helian crystalwings have great control over light and heat, as their name implies. Their powers likewise rise with the sun and are greatly diminished at night, though anyone foolish enough to threaten one will discover that they still are more than capable of defending themselves at night. The crystals on their bodies blaze like miniature suns, and are potent light and heat sources for years after being shed, making them useful for a wide variety of applications. Helian crystalwings have a passive aura that increases the confidence of all who are nearby, and as such they are particularly good companions for adventurers who need an extra shot of bravery. At the Keep, though, helian crystalwings are usually kept with selenic crystalwings so that the two breeds can temper each other's effects.
Egg
There is a blazing gem embedded in this hot egg. An additional blazing gem is suspended between the two fiery horns that have already emerged.
Hatchling
This hatchling's head and tail burn so bright that it hurts to look at directly, which makes caring for it a bit of a challenge. This is a bit of a problem, as it does not have complete mastery of its power over flames yet, and so it is often accidentally setting things ablaze with its tail, especially at midday, when its magic is strongest. Being around a helian crystalwing hatchling for too long, especially when the sun is out, also comes with unique risks, as they radiate an aura of optimism and certainty, which if left unchecked, can lead to some brazenly bad decisions. The best course of action for anyone raising a helian crystalwing hatchling is to also raise a selenic crystalwing at the same time, as the two will balance each other out and make caring for both much easier.
Adult
Helian crystalwings are a glorious sight to behold, with their bright head, blazing tail, and molten fiery wings. Adults have much better control of their abilities, and will no longer set things ablaze by accident, though they can and will light intensely hot fires when threatened or called upon to do so. They also still radiate an aura that emboldens anyone nearby, though adults seem capable of reining this aura in as well, such that it is merely a confidence booster, rather than an active enabler of bad judgment.
