Mischievous and fearless, pukekos are regarded with fondness and exasperation alike by most magi. White and gold albina pukekos seem to have a penchant for finding and proudly displaying mildly embarrassing items from the humans around them, while the blue and black averna pukekos have an uncanny ability to repeatedly sneak up on other creatures and peck them before running away. Though they are capable of swimming and flying, pukekos are clumsy at both and usually prefer to walk. Legend states that pukekos were once masters of moving through water, land, and air alike, but grew haughty as a result, and refused to aid the gods of the forest in their hour of need. As punishment, pukekos were relegated to swamps, their gifts reduced to bumbling shadows of their previous supremacy. However, as anyone who keeps pukekos will attest, the birds certainly retained their arrogant nature, still strutting about everywhere as if they own the place, poking their beaks wherever they wish.
