Adult taiyang are large and sturdy, with a thick, heavy coat that gives them even more bulk. The gentle glow of their fur, and their purple tongues, give them a distinct and easily recognizable appearance. Adult taiyang are fiercely protective of their hatchlings and their chosen magi, and while they will teasingly disobey others, they will extend their protection to their magi's loved ones as well. Despite their heavy fur, they'll happily play about in water, and are happy both lazing around in the sunlight and going on long treks, as long as their chosen magi is with them.
Taiyang are more commonly known as sun dogs, nicknamed for the warmth and light they give off. Originally used to guard flocks of ariessa on village farms, taiyang have become a common companion for magi travelling around the world, especially those looking to go up north. Protective and loyal, they also love to cuddle no matter what their age, and will happily snuggle up with their magi to provide warmth. On dark nights, taiyang are invaluable due to their gentle glow, and are often seen through the Keep during the dragging days of winter's end, cheering up those who are waiting for spring.
