Veisera hatchlings are fat, bumbling creatures. It will take them up to a year to grow their plumage, and until then, they rarely venture from their soft nests. It's not uncommon for a veisera hatchling to grow as large as an adult before learning to fly. Their parents are highly attentive and bring them food as often as they wish. Should any human wander across a veisera hatchling, the person has more to fear than the hatchling. These little ones have the strange ability to make nearly any human or animal bring them food.

Veisera are never seen around the castle, as they only live by oceans. Although their nests dot the rocky shores, the birds themselves are more difficult to find. They are seldom on land, lest they have hatchlings to protect. Instead, their time is spent above the water, flying low in order to find food. Veisera have voracious appetites, and snatch up any fish foolish enough to swim too close to the surface. Veisera are able to glide effortlessly on wind drafts, using almost no energy. It takes an extraordinary amount of time for one of these companions to tire. They have been known to remain in flight for weeks, perching only when exhaustion overtakes them. Unlike other companions, they build many nests in many places, so that they can find a place to rest easily. These nests are used by all veisera, and are safely hidden in crevices in the rocks. Villagers are superstitious about veisera, and believe that their presence marks a change in weather. It is true that storms or warmer days often follow veisera, but this is likely because they fly along wind currents that bring changes.
