This egg has gems growing on its shell.
Lore has long said that certain gems represent certain traits - or, perhaps, the gemstone kirin inspired the lore. Each type of kirin displays personality traits associated with its gem; opal kirin have tempestuous temperaments. These creatures are found wherever gemstones are prevalent, being especially common around the Voltarian volcanoes. Although most of their diet consists of plants, they must eat a certain amount of minerals to grow the hard gem scales that cover their backs and hips. A gemstone kirin's hooves, fur, and scales quickly betrays its affinity for a particular gem, and it may be easily lured by offering a fine quality gem of their type. Despite this specific affection for a certain gem, these kirins are highly prized companions of jewelers, as any of these kirin can tell any fine quality gem from a poor one.
