As amagnae hatchlings go, helias amagnae are fairly easy to care for, being mildly friendly towards their magi if somewhat aloof. Their slightly gangly appearance belies the fact that they are fearsome hunters even at this young age, and any insects, small lizards, and small rodents that cross their path are quickly dispatched. Despite this hunting prowess though, they are not above begging for treats when they suspect their magi has some. Hatchling helias amagnae are fairly drab, their only striking feature being the distinct white stripes across their head before they grow in their adult plumage.
Helias amagnae are one of the brighter varieties of amagnae, both literally and metaphorically. Not content to simply hunt for the unfortunate critters that cross their path, helias amagnae adults will often fashion rudimentary lures to attract prey. Despite being rather voracious, they are well-liked for amagnae, helped by the beautiful markings hiding in their wings and tails, and a preference for ignoring humans rather than attacking on sight. They also make for great pest control right before harvest. Helias amagnae like to sun themselves, spreading their wings out for maximum coverage, when they aren't catching their next meal. In the evening, after the sun has just set but the sky isn't fully dark, they briefly seem to glow with faint golden light, and their feathers tend to be mildly warm, like the memory of a gentle sunbeam. In circumstances when they can't sun themselves for many days, they stop glowing and their feathers grow cold, though the helias amagnae itself does not seem to suffer any ill effects.
