Birthday: Monday, February 5, 2024
Owner: Kestrad
Element: Void
Ixan mist stalker hatchlings are hard to keep track of, even by their parents. They are attracted by everything that moves, and with plenty of energy on their side they will hunt mice and leaves until exhaustion takes over. They dissolve into mist and reform at any given moment, happy to play with anything and anyone. Unfortunately, they are unaware of the damage they can cause, and the hatchlings can soon turn a silly game into a dangerous hunt. Many trees in the jungle bear the marks of the hatchlings' games, the bark torn in plenty of places as the little feline misses its moving target and claws the wood instead.
Close relatives to the more common mist stalkers, the ixan type is larger and more dangerous. They are masters of stealth. Their spotted coats help them become one with the environment, being difficult to spot even when moving. With the ability to dissolve into mist, they easily travel through the jungle's lush vegetation. Nothing can stand in the way of a hunting ixan mist stalker. The nature around them does not impede these felines in any way as they use their mysterious magic to their advantage. Like any other feline, they could cause a lot of harm to the nearby bird population when hunting excessively. Fortunately, they cannot maintain the mist form for too long, which somewhat minimizes the damage. As dangerous as they are, these felines live and hunt exclusively in the Ixan Jungle. People living near the jungle are safe as these creatures do not seek to harm those who mind their own business.
