• Mobuushiy (Small) Hidden Magic Cookies

Habitats: Tundra, Pride Rocks, Redwoods, Flower Cove

Territorial: No unless guard/sage

Diet: Plants

Nesting Season: Spring, Sakura

Nesting Grounds: Any

Pack creature (7 max)

Important Notes:

-HEALING HUNTER: Damage mode: All, Healing mode: Sage only, only out of combat

-BURROW: Do not use

-AREA FOOD RESTORE: Sage only, only use during winter and famine

-STICKY TRAP: Sage only, use when distracting predators

-Only TWO guards can be designated and only they and the sage are defensive

-Visit Hellion, Angelic, Ardor, Boreal, and Verdant shrines if you are going to become the sage

-The to-be Sage MUST elder upon being sent on the sage pilgrimage and must be alone

Description: Deer-shaped cookies given life through magic, Mobuushiy are, though oblivious to this power, have quite potent magic abilities. Within every Mobuushiy is bounties of magic, but only the wisest few can truly use it. These wise Mobuushiy are called sages. With their magic, they gain the ability to heal all wounds that befall their allies when out of battle, lay traps of sticky frosting to slow down attackers, and restore the berries in a berry bush during cold seasons. Though the sage is very wise, Mobuushiy generally are rather smart creatures, if a little less than the sage.

Behavior: Mobuushiy packs are carefully organized in a way where each member has a role by adulthood that best suits their preferences and abilities. Though all other Mobuushiy lack the magic that sages have, they make up for it in their productivity. Mobuushiy can be foragers, guards, or watch over the young, depending on their skills. There may only be two guards in a pack though, and their main goal isn’t to kill, but rather to buy time so they and the pack can escape alive. If no sage is present in a group, the leadership is more of a group function, though a leader may be designated if they are well-respected by the group. The sage is also an additional guard with a similar goal of distraction.

Sage: The path to becoming a sage is no easy task. A Mobuushiy must visit and rest at every Warden shrine (disregarding those out of reach, being those of the Novus Warden, Eigion Warden, and Garra Warden) and become an elder. Every season of Mythic or Fall in packs without a sage, the most well-respected member of the group is sent on this challenging journey. If they return to their pack alive, they are the new sage and are tasked with keeping the pack organized, making sure each member’s tasks are complete, and being on the lookout for predators.

• Rorolo (Small) Playful and Elusive

Habitats: Redwoods, Flower Cove, Swamp

Territorial: No

Diet: N/A

Nesting Season: Spring, Mystic, Sakura

Nesting Grounds: Within territory

Pair/Family creature (5 max)

Important notes:

-DAZZLING FLASH: only use on your partner or predators (not other Rorolos)

-BURROW: can use one burrow during nesting season

-Do not kill other Rorolo pairs 

-Not strictly nocturnal, can roam around in the day

Description: Rorolos are small, passive creatures with fireflies constantly flying around them, which is believed to be the lifesource, and may even be seen having conversations with them. They have bright bulbs all over their bodies that can be used to help see in the dark. Despite Rorolos being photovores, they often like to be active in the dark by simple choice rather than instinct. 

Behavior: Rorolos are very playful with their partner and often with other passive creatures. Once the sun sets completely, they will have an unusually high energy and start to playfully chase each other around Sonaria. They need very little sleep to function and only like to sleep at dawn or dusk. When spotting another passive herbivore, Rorolos will like to go into the nearest body of water and pretend to be part of the flora with its bulb and fireflies. It is unknown whether or not it is to blend into their environment or to entertain, but it does often leave the creature confused. If a creature does start to attack the pair, they will use their bright lights in order to blind and confuse the predator. If a Rorolo’s partner dies, it is very unlikely that it will ever find another partner again, due to the very strong bonds they had together. Due to this, lone Rorolos can be seen curiously observing other creatures, predatory or not, at a dangerously close range to pass time. 

Plant eating “Cannibals”: On some occasions, Rorolo pairs will run into each other and decide whether or not they are safe. This is determined by how thirsty a pair is at the time. If a pair is thirsty (1 or both being below half thirst), they will try to nibble at the other pairs leaves (until 1 of them reaches half health) for the water in their leaves. If not, they will travel to the nearest body of water together and swim, pretending to be plants. Or, if it’s night, they will playfully chase each other until dawn. After they have exhausted themselves, they will part ways. 

Nesting: During Spring, Mystic, or Sakura, regardless of gender, the pair will nest in 1-3 Rooroos (baby Rolos) and care for them for the next 3-4 seasons. During these times, the parents will typically act like their usual skittish selves while their children are much more brave. Rooroos are known to circle around larger herbivores wanting to play or climb on top of them, which Rolos learn overtime that it’s not the smartest thing to do.

• Saikarie (Small) Curious Hit-n-Run Ambusher

Habitats: Tundra, Flower Cove, Swamp, Redwoods

Territorial: No, (Mildly with children)

Diet: Hunted Meat, Scavenged Meat

Nesting season: Spring, Sakura, Summer

Nesting Grounds: Swamp

Solo/Pair creature

Important Notes:

-INVISIBILITY: can use it at any time (cannot have mud effects while invis hunting)

-BURROW: do not use

-Often sniffs around area and uses mud

-Do not kill creatures you scare

-Hunts at night (unless starving)

Description: Curious and observing by nature, Saikaries are patient and very intelligent. Due to the false eye mask on their face, Saikaries are able to detect any creatures exact location around them and uses it to their advantage. They also have the unique ability to blend into any surrounding, unnoticeable to the common eye. Their fast, long legs allow them to travel from biome to biome quickly in order to find the most optimal prey. Females are often brighter in colors compared to males due to the abundance of tail feathers.

Behavior: Saikaries will often be paired with a lifelong mate, simply just for convenience of hunting and reproduction. Sais do not care much if their mate has died, but will feel sorrow for their partner being gone for a short period of time. Saikaries are very good when it comes to choosing the right prey. When not hungry at the time, they will spend days stalking their prey and observing its behaviors until it is the most optimal time to hunt. Saikaries especially love to hunt during the night when their prey is most likely asleep in order to have the element of surprise. Using their invisibility to their advantage, Saikaries can easily observe prey without them even realizing. Each Saikarie will take turns biting their prey, letting the blood loss do the work for them.

Scare Tactic: When not hunting or traveling, Saikaries love to become invisible in open areas and wait for unsuspecting creatures to come near. Once they are close enough, the Saikarie will nip at it and run away, screeching loudly for they have fooled them.

Mating/Nesting: Lone Saikaries meet in Flower Cove looking for a mate during the chilly seasons of Winter or fall in order to save time for nesting in the warmer months. Females will compete against other females, showing off their tail feathers towards the males. Once a pair has been chosen, they will travel together to the other side of Sonaria in the secluded and hidden areas of the Swamp and have no more than 1 child (also known as a Saiklet) at once during the warmer seasons. Parents aren’t very particular to what they teach their children. They could teach about hunting, stalking, or simply just the meaning of life. The parents will care for it until their child has turned into an adult.
