Species: Tulguc
Birthday: Tuesday, April 4, 2017

Element: Neutral
An adult tulguc can nest comfortably in a magi's hand. The hens actively fuss over their young while the roosters engage in displays of plumage and flame and smells, each trying to outdo the other either producing the sweetest smells imaginable or reeks so foul all other living things flee from the scene. Wealthy people from Synara are often eager to purchase tulguc induced perfumes, extracted from tulguc feathers when they are courting a mate. Adult tulgucs are eager to partake in anything involving shiny polished rocks, and given the chance may try to brood them.
The history of tulgucs is shrouded in mystery. The only known population resides in Solnis, a long abandoned city in the middle of the Etain Desert, now fallen in ruin. Many suspect that they have long since evolved from phoenixes with a hint of cross-breeding with Solnis' ancient livestock. Tulgucs are territorial and will chase away anything they perceive as a threat, no small feat given their size. Tulgucs are also very vocal both in their displeasure and bliss, and many tulgucs have been observed to chatter away throughout the day for no apparent reason. Tulgucs have a very specific power to enhance smells. They can make themselves smell like anything they've ever smelled, though it will always be a more burned and smoky version of the smell, as it would seem that it is the tulguc's flame that acts as the source.
