Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Bloodmoon Yote
Birthday: Sunday, October 31, 2021
Owner: Magics
Element: Neutral
Yote hatchlings are weak and defenseless when first hatched, and require careful, constant feedings of milk for their first two weeks. After that, they become much more self sufficient, and quickly learn to catch mice and other small creatures to feed themselves, though they will happily beg their magi or their parents for food. Weaned yote hatchlings love playing with each other and their magi, and quickly learn all sorts of clever tricks for breaking into places they don't belong, often to their magi's chagrin.
Legend has it that when the kamar rabbit came down from the moon, the yote chased after, and both arrived on earth as a result. Because the kamar rabbit was so hard to catch, the yote split himself into two to better pursue his quarry - bluemoon to chase the kamar rabbit at night, and bloodmoon for the day. Yotes appear in many legends, and in some they are ill omens who purposely sow misfortune, while in others, they are benevolent tricksters who brought fire to the world and ended an endless winter - but in all legends, the kamar rabbit outsmarts it and gets away. There is some truth to these legends - magi should avoid keeping both yotes and kamar rabbits, as yotes delight in chasing the rabbits and are stubbornly persistent and just clever enough to get into a lot of trouble, while kamar rabbits delight in tricking yotes into causing even more trouble while fleeing, often leading to a great deal of endless chaos. Yote companions at the Keep are cunning and nimble and often leave the kitchen staff at their wits' end from their tendency to break into larders. However, they are also persistent and brave hunters, and so friendly that it's impossible to stay upset at them for very long.
