Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Golden Vojkabayo
Birthday: Wednesday, May 20, 2020
Owner: Kestrad
Element: Water 
Vojkabayo lay only one egg at a time, concentrating on raising the hatchling to independence before they have another. However, vojkabayo often live in small herds so that hatchlings can play together, and to ensure protection from predators. A hatchling vojkabayo has minor control over the water around it, mostly to create bubbles and tiny waterspouts that collapse as soon as the hatchling's attention wanders. If a magi is raising a vojkabayo hatchling alone, be prepared to have it bond immediately and strongly; it will want to be as close as possible to its magi at all times, and will raise a loud racket if it's left alone too long.
Vojkabayo are powerful beasts with the ability to live in both salt and fresh waters, though they prefer whichever one it is to be deep enough for diving. Originally used in battle for both their physical strength and their ability to control water, vojkabayo are now mostly kept as protective companions. They bond very strongly with one person and often don't survive long after that person dies. It's considered a great honour to be buried with a vojkabayo companion and tombs have been found containing the remains of battle magi along with their beloved vojkabayo and its tack.
