Frozen Egg
Name: unnamed
Species: Otrovian Amagnae
Birthday: Thursday, November 20, 2014
Owner: Ambathy
Element: Neutral
This egg is a sickly green color.
One of the most wild of creatures, otrovian amagnae are usually solitary types. It will charge and snap with a sharp beak if anyone other than its magi approaches, and is not overly affectionate. They will occasionally mingle with other amagnae, whether to mate or hunt for food, but the villagers had best not confuse the two. Their green scaled hide easily marks them apart, and if a human does make the nasty mistake of hunting one, they are in for a horrible surprise. Otrovian amagnae are very intelligent birds, and they love to play elaborate pranks. They will hide, sometimes for hours, and when an unknowing farmer attempts to cut the head off of a future meal, it will spring into action and attack. Their beaks are cruelly sharp, as are their claws, although they tend to save their toxic mist for hunting rather than play. They will happily pursue the poor human until bored, leaving them with deep scratches to tend to. Not surprisingly, this does not endear these animals to most humans. Nor does their lethal breath: their wattles are specially developed organs that can produce a poisonous mist used to kill their prey. Some scholars speculate that decessi are rats that have developed a partial tolerance to this poison breath, and have become zombified instead of killed. However this theory has not been proven one way or the other.
