Frozen Female Hatchling
Name: unnamed
Species: Yunikon
Birthday: Monday, January 15, 2024
Owner: Danafox
Element: Neutral 
If initially the egg gave no clues on what this creature would turn into, it is now obvious. A small paper unicorn waits calmly, seemingly devoid of life. It twitches whenever someone passes by as if it wants to do something but is uncertain. The yunikon will come to life only when offered small pieces of paper. It consumes the treat silently, which is a strange sight, considering this creature is not alive. While there are no visible changes when the yunikon eats, they show the next day. The hatchling will be slightly bigger and even heavier sometimes. Slowly but surely, it will reach what most consider to be maturity while maintaining its calm demeanor.
Creating a yunikon is not about casting a complex spell but about folding the paper into the perfect shape. Once the paper is folded, the spell needed to animate it is simple. Sometimes people like to add some flavor to it so their yunikon is different from the standard ones. But even in those cases, the yunikon acts like all other unicorns: it eats, sleeps, and prances around. When it comes to food, the yunikons eat small pieces of paper, slowly consuming them and thus growing in size every time they feed. A curious thing about the yunikons is that once they reach a specific size, they will shed the old paper. They sleep on top of paper piles, remaining motionless for many hours. To wake a yunikon, one needs to recast the animating spell. They do not show emotions as they have no life, but they are cute enough for people, especially young students, to keep a few yunikons as companions.
