Temple burrower hatchlings tend to be unsteady on their feet, even long after hatching. With their poor eyesight, they often stumble in the bright light of day, but their excellent sense of smell helps guide them. Fortunately they're goodnatured and shake off any clumsy missteps, always curious to inspect the next interesting thing with their long, sensitive snouts. This clumsiness doesn't extend to their digging, however; even freshly hatched, they have excellent control of their claws and a driving urge to dig in any dirt they can find. Magi raising a temple burrower should provide them with an area to dig - just be careful that there's some way to keep them contained lest they dig their way into becoming lost.
As their name implies, temple burrowers like nothing more than to dig holes, pits, and elaborate underground labyrinths. In light of this, burrowers are indispensable to magi looking to build new homes and shops - especially as temple burrowers are quite willing to be paid in tasty treats. It's said that temple burrowers are responsible for the construction of the great ruined city in the middle of the Etain desert, though no one can find any records to prove it. Regardless, wild burrowers are often found in this area, resting from the heat of the day and gorging on the figs and dates in the old orchard.
