Element: Water
Even when fully grown, yulspiro adults retain their adorable appearance and are known to provoke adoring coos from magi all over the Keep. Most yulspiro are happy to have the attention, and find this attention even better when it comes with some sort of sugar. When not giving magi their best innocent looks, yulspiro adults are known to seek out water to cleanse, whether that's a brackish pond or someone's mop bucket. Magi should try to keep yulspiro from cleaning every body of water they come across, as there are other creatures who might actually like their water dirty. As parents, yulspiro are conscientious and protective of their hatchlings, but won't hesitate to discipline any hatchling that gets too rambunctious. Left to their own devices, however, groups of yulspiro can easily cause accidental water damage, so should be kept away from more delicate areas of the Keep.
The yulspiro is an odd creature: a wyrm at first glance, but ones whose wings are too soft to let it take flight. Instead, these supple wings curl up as the yulspiro grows, until each one forms a tree-like shape. When the yulspiro is especially happy, tiny bits of light in all the colours of the rainbow appear within these curls. Yulspiro are able to breathe both air and water, so can easily spend time on land; however, they prefer to at least have a water source nearby so they can keep their skin from drying out. Fortunately yulspiro have the ability to generate their own water, at least enough for a puddle to roll around in, and can also purify dirty water with just a touch. Yulspiro are naturally friendly and curious - magi may wake to the occasional damp tongue in their ear in the middle of the night if they take one to raise - and can be bribed to do almost anything with an offer of sugar.
