December Donis - Yangouro and Yinouro
Posted: December 1st, 2018, 12:03:00 am
I didn't see a thread for this yet, so I'm starting one!
Yangouro (3-shard)
Yangouro are the fiery counterpart to the more reserved yinouro, but members of both species get along well when they meet. They can occasionally be aggressive but this aggression is usually born from a sense of frustration rather than malice. Magi should try to keep at least a pair of yangouro, so that they can play with each other, but if that isn't an option, providing them with plenty of toys and adventures should keep them happy.
This green egg gives off the heat of a banked coal.
(no dimorphism)
Despite its red belly, a yangouro hatchling is quite adept at hiding itself in snow-covered evergreens, winding itself around a branch and holding still to avoid predators, hunt for food, or just launch themselves at an unsuspecting sibling. Vocal and energetic, they enjoy playing games to the point of exhaustion, but usually recover after a snack and a nap. Hatchlings don't develop their powers until they grow older, but they're warm to the touch from the moment they hatch and many city magi have been known to wear hatchlings as scarves.
(no dimorphism)
An adult yangouro can vary in size from a few feet to a few metres. Whatever their size, they're perfectly capable of supporting their own weight through some magical means, spending the majority of their time floating around head height. Once they gain the ability to cast fireballs, they will often use them to light fireplaces and wood stoves, though they should first be allowed to practice on something of low value. Yangouro are constantly looking for stimulation and even older adults will look for or create games to play to burn off their excess energy.
Yinouro (5-shard)
Yinouro are the more reserved counterpart to the fiery yangouro, but members of both species get along well when they meet. They have long fuses and are slow to show aggression, but they have also been known to hold grudges and spend weeks or months planning revenge. Many yinouro show artistic tendencies in their ice powers, and lucky magi will sometimes wake up to windows covered in delicate, beautiful art etched in frost.
This brown egg makes you think of cold, still lakes.

: Although playful, yinouro hatchlings are more given to calmness than their yangouro cousins, and will happily curl up in big piles with other yinouro around the same age for a nice fluffy nap. They deal well with the cold and enjoy digging out holes in snowbanks to rest in. Hatchlings don't develop their powers until they grow older, but they have a pleasant coolness to them despite their fur that can be a respite from the heat of summer.

Even as adults, yinouro like to cuddle and will often curl up around their magi, though this isn't as pleasant once winter approaches. Once they gain the ability to cast ice and snow, they seem to enjoy finding liquids to freeze, whether this is the local pond, the greenhouse's well, or their magi's fresh cup of tea.
