Frozen Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Golden Harvest Kitsune
Birthday: Tuesday, November 5, 2024
Owner: Nexosa
Element: Life
Harvest kitsune hatchlings sleep as much as cats, sometimes even cuddling with them. When awake, the foxes play with other hatchlings, regardless of species, with little care. They bite and claw at things, destroy rugs and shoes, having an endless amount of energy. They are very attached to their parents and feed exclusively on the flowers, vegetables, and fruit that grow on their backs. The hatchlings accept treats from their magi but only as toys, refusing to eat what they receive. No harvest kitsune hatchling has ever been seen eating anything other than what their parents give them, so it is uncertain if they are picky or if what other foxes eat does not nourish them.
Compared to other foxes, the harvest kitsunes are small, and they take advantage of their size to squeeze through tight spaces and break into pantries and kitchens with ease. If some trickster creatures do this to steal food, the harvest kitsunes do the exact opposite. They leave food and flowers for people, all of them enchanted. The vegetables and fruit taste magnificent, and those who eat them become kinder, warmer, happier, and more open to change. The flowers have little scent, but they can be dried and used in potions that heal all sorts of aches - heartaches not included. What grows on the foxes' bodies should not be removed by force, though. Instead, the harvest kitsunes prefer to gift people their enchanted food and flowers. If one steals from the foxes, they will find the food to taste horrible and the flowers to turn potions into poisons. As such, everyone waits patiently for the kitsunes to share their magical goodies.
