Male Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Saevym
Birthday: Tuesday, April 1, 2014
Owner: yummyquik
Element: Void 
These hatchlings are almost always sleeping. When they are awakened from their warm nests, they try their hardest to climb back inside. When forced to exercise, saevym hatchlings refuse, and lay flat on the ground or wrap themselves around your leg. If you really want your saevym to move, lay down a trail of leaves and the little one will begrudgingly follow the path, eating as they waddle along. These creatures hate traveling, but if they must do so, they prefer to be carried. When a saevym hatchling wants to get to somewhere else in the castle, they often climb in unsuspecting magi's hoods.
Saevyms are most certainly one of the slower companions at The Keep. They remain high up in the treetops, alternating between sleeping and eating. If ever forced to move, they do so at a very slow pace, trundling about on all fours. Any hatchlings who see an adult moving will climb on their back in order to get a free ride. It's not unusual to see an adult traveling with two or three small hatchlings holding onto their fur. In addition to being exceptionally lazy, these companions are also very cuddly. It's amusing to see a fully grown saevym extend its arms out to its magi, demanding to be carried. Although many argue that saevyms are adorable, with their large ears and sweet personalities, they are also rather heavy. That doesn't stop visitors from becoming enamored, though. Other than their looks, these companions also possess some interesting magical abilities. The plants that grow on the backs of saevyms are no ordinary plants. When consumed, the mushrooms and plants allow one to react with great speed. This ability allows them to move at great speeds, while others appear to be moving very slowly. The vegetation that causes this power grows only once a year, however, and is not anywhere near as potent when dried. Saevyms rarely use this magic, though, unless it is an emergency. When a saevym is in great danger, they will devour one of these plants and escape the threat with ease. It seems to be the only way they can escape predators, though the plants also allow them to blend in with their surroundings.
