Frozen Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Jubhu
Birthday: Tuesday, March 15, 2022
Owner: Danafox
Element: Fire 
Jubhu hatchlings are much blander in colour than their parents, in order to help hide in mud and grasses when the adults are off hunting. This doesn't mean they aren't just as grumpy, though fortunately they don't yet possess fire magic. Even when freshly hatched, a jubhu is territorial and will go so far as to drive its own sibling out of the nest if it can. Magi should concentrate on raising just one at a time, and focus on gaining its trust with food and patience. Their reward is a companion that, though not exactly docile, willingly stays by their magi's side for many years.
Jubhu live in isolated areas around Taggelisk and the edges of the Etain Desert, where they can stake out large territories and defend them aggressively. These territories are surrounded by a ring of burnt vegetation, created by the jubhu's fire magic. Jubhu are solitary creatures and view almost everything and everyone with suspicion, but can be slowly tamed with offers of fish and small mammals. Even so, jubhu will still remain aloof and aren't above giving an annoyance a quick little nip or singeing their hair. Jubhu can live for up to 50 years, so magi wishing to raise one are advised to start when young enough that they can feasibly care for the jubhu its entire life.
