Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Desert Courshound
Birthday: Wednesday, June 8, 2022
Owner: Chess
Element: Neutral 
Like their kenhound cousins, desert courshound hatchlings are energetic creatures who love to play. Early games of hide-and-seek with their owners help them perfect their memory for locations and paths, and time spent chasing balls and toys will help them work up their speed. Even as hatchlings, they are more independent than their kenhound or silkhound cousins, and will soon be eager to run on long journeys.
Bred for agility from the fastest members of the related zaya kenhound, these creatures are known for two things: Their loyalty and their blistering speed. They are the most trusted messengers of the Etain desert, able to cross miles of blistering hot sands in less than a day. They are keenly intelligent, and will faithfully deliver their message without fail. They have exquisite memory, and it is thought they will never forget a path they have run. Seeing these creatures zipping across the desert is a common sight for travelers in Etain. Their only limitation is their strength--messages are easy to carry, but heavier packages, if they can even carry them in the first place, will drastically slow them down.
