Bloëres

Chapter 2: Bloëres

In book: Bestiary, Vol.1

Most common in the east regions of Postinen, due to the colder temperatures all year around, Bloëres is a not-so-usual pet, mostly due to the requirements a cor needs to have in order to be able to own one, being illegal to capture wild ones, unless they have been injured, or orphaned and no longer can be reintroduced to the wild. Bloëres are usually solitary creatures outside their nesting period, where they form monogamous pairs.

Bloëres have been around way before the rising of Postinen, and some wild ones can still be seen in the Wastelands.

In the wild, Bloëres can usually live up to 25 years, reaching full sexual maturity at 3, but in captivity, some have lived as long as 40 years.
