Posting a little later than usual today. Been a little busy but I didn't want to be late with this one because it's a little more special. Wanted to bookend the month of January with a bit of a more elaborate Pixpet, and shamelessly promote something I really hope we eventually get - a melanistic legendary variant, to balance out all these albinos we have. I'll probably end every month with a legendary like this but who knows, we'll see what February brings!

DAY 12

Rarity: 1.5% (Legendary)
Pixpet Type: Mirage
Lifting Capacity: 66-96 WU

Although demigods, their demeanor is insidious and ignoble. Shimmering into view exclusively in sandy deserts on hot days, they play "pranks" on Pixpets and travelers alike that leave them dazed and sometimes even grievously injured. Their dusty bodies do not contain an ounce of moisture, and their attacks can only be deterred by water, fading from view abruptly before the liquid can touch them.

Name: Melanistic Fatamorgyle
Height (head to hindquarters): 18'6" (564 cm)
Color Groups: Black (52%), Grey (40%), Brown (6%), Cyan (2%)
Rarity: 0.5% (Legendary)
Pixpet Type: Mirage
Lifting Capacity: 66-96 WU

This variant of Fatamorgyle is rare enough that all sightings of them in the wild can be counted on one's hands. They are less bold than their diurnal counterparts, and prefer to stalk from a distance, tempting the thirsty with illusory projections of oases. Those raised domestically seem more concerned with taking naps and playing chess, though.

Mummy noodle cat!

Do you happen to have an art Instagram I could follow you on? Your art is really cool!

DAY 13

Name: Nymbus
Height (head to tail): 12'2" (371 cm)
Color Groups: White (65%), Red (30%), Aqua (5%)
Rarity: 25%
Pixpet Type: Serpent
Lifting Capacity: 40-70 WU

Born completely red, amassing a veil of clouds only in adolescence. Hobbies include raining on other Pixpets for no particularly good reason, and producing startlingly loud thunder at inopportune times.

Your designs get increasingly prettier and prettier! I'm rooting so much!

I've been in love with these designs ever since I found this thread Keep up the great work!

Ahh, sorry for more missed days! These things happen I suppose. Expect more posts than usual today.

Rarity: 43%

They are drawn to bask in the sun on hot, cloudless days. Seem completely unaware that this dries them out. Act listless and bored during overcast weather.

theyre both baby....... especially kokolumba, theyre like baby cockatrices!

me too @ fafsneer

lovely as usual!

Yup! I was going for more of a heraldic vibe with this one - my favorite kinds of dragons are the type that call back to the awkward, lanky, ugly ones of ye olde times.
