Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Painted Hind
Birthday: Wednesday, January 13, 2016
Owner: Kestrad
Element: Fire 
Painted hind hatchlings may look like they're all legs, but they're very solid babies and their sharp hooves can easily damage carpet and wood flooring. Although shy, when a hind hatchling feels playful, it can tear around at great speeds - both over ground and through the air. Fortunately hatchlings don't develop the ability to cast fire until their antlers grow in, which also marks the point at which they're adults and will leave their magi to find mates and start their own families. Painted hinds can never be kept in captivity and will always remain a little wild but can be great friends to those few they trust.
Painted hinds are surprisingly quiet despite their size, able to move through even a dry autumn wood with delicate ease. These beautiful creatures are a rare sight and even rarer companion due to their shy nature, but magi who are lucky enough to befriend one gain a companion that is swift and strong enough to ride - if a little wild. Hinds aren't limited to the ground and can easily run through the sky, blending in with the stars and the northern lights.
