Adult wootootoos are able to both walk and fly - badly. Throughout the Keep, a yell of 'wootootoo!' often heralds a bundle of yowling feathers and fur tumbling out of the sky. Fortunately wootootoo bounce quite well, though not so much any magi they hit; a fully grown adult wootootoo is large enough to cause injury to all but the sturdiest person. Terrible parents who immediately abandon eggs after laying them, they likely would have quickly gone extinct if not for the magi who first brought them to the Keep. Considered a pet best left to the rich - and, in some unkinder circles, equally as dumb - wootootoos are nonetheless still charming enough that no one can really hate them.
As the story goes, there was once a young magi, a gangly and awkward individual with barely enough magical aptitude to light a candle without a match. Determined to prove themselves to instructors and fellow students alike, this magi set off to explore the world and promptly took a wrong turn, getting lost in the middle of nowhere. Behind the old barn they took shelter in, they found a haphazard nest of sticks and loose bits of garbage, containing strange, mottled eggs. The creatures that eventually emerge seem to be a curious mixture of the mischievous wolphyn and the mildly deranged potooto, though neither species is native to within 1000 leagues. Naturally the magi still names them wootootoos. Proud of their find, the magi bears the hatchlings back to the Keep - via a friendly passing merchant who actually knows how to read a map - in order to grow, breed, and study them. After a year of intense study, the conclusion is clear: wootootoos are hopelessly dumb, obviously the result of rogue magic or someone's idea of a joke.
