Male Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Etainian Naja
Birthday: Wednesday, January 11, 2023
Owner: Yliah
Element: Neutral 
Newly hatched, a naja is no longer than a magis palm and completely white. It is not until they begin to age and shed that their colors begin to show. Like adults, hatchlings tend to spend their days in the sun. While adults only eat every few days, young najas require food everyday while they are growing. These hatchlings do not like being handled, so magis attempting to do so should be wearing thick leather gloves to avoid getting bit.
Etainian najas can typically be found basking on the warm sands, their scales blending in and reflecting the suns rays, making them difficult to see. Najas are highly venomous, but rarely bite, only when threatened or when they sense that a magi has malicious intentions. Magis who explore the desert, if proven to be a good person, may be gifted an egg from one of these snakes. Najas never get lost in the Etain Desert, even if raised from an egg far away, they instinctively know where to go, making them the perfect guides. Najas are solitary creatures, preferring their own company, though they somewhat tolerate their magis, they still have a temperamental attitude. While najas are venomous, they have the ability to cure most poisons and venoms with a bite, making them helpful to exploring magis who may run into any venomous insects or reptiles in the desert.
