Childhood bff of Drusuj and traveling work partner

General notes:

• has known Drus since they've been like 5 idk. they were the closest neighbors tbh (and even then by like. 30 mins. bc rural Raarkajkr)
• When Drus had their accident, they learned the magic to be able to upkeep it (Drus being unable, and no one else being enthusiastic/able about it). They partially travel with Drus as their caretaker bc buying an enchanti that knows how to maintain Drus's medical condition would be expensive and they wouldn't even know who to go to for that, being in Raarkajkr, adept mages are few and far between.
• Traveling with Drus, as in, Drus mainly guides others thru Raarkajkr along with delivering packages/mail. They assist in this, mostly scouting ahead (faster+smaller than Drus), planning optimal routes, or carrying small packages (because they are too small/slight to be used as a mount by a creature in fragile form).  They thoroughly enjoy the work and the life on the move tbh.

• worry-wort but also infinitely curious so they're always at war with themself frankly. A planner but also a risk-taker, a calculated risk-taker, but a risk-taker nonetheless.
• extrovert, enjoys being around ppl, talking with ppl, and seeking out new and strange opportunities.
• Fascinated by morbid things, death, okkseuja, and the gods. Another one of their reasons for traveling with Drus, want to see more of Raarkajkr, particularly explore areas by The Wall, which are known for strange-happenings. At some point wants to visit The North.
• generally energetic and talkative. is a monologue-er tbh. 
• easily flustered + frightened but also so so curious and being frightened/flustered honestly only increases their desire to interact/investigate with whatever or whoever did that.
• Isn't actually that great with ppl (they r too strange + excitable + eccentric) but is generally better than Drus, so they often deal with the talking aspects of their job LOL....

• Lure + hoofdrake mix, a somewhat common mix within Raarkajkr, which is predominatly Hoofdrake, but with some lystrodont+lure+scentshine.
• Mane+legs have 'false leaves' which change color with the season. But like, they can also change color to match current background/foliage to blend in. Their default color (while not actively trying to blend with smth) is determined by seasons however. These can be shed when frightened, or may fall out when sick.
• white tufts on tail + antennae can be voluntarily shifted to a certain degree to become larger/more numerous or of different textures. These are the characteristic lures of the lure subspecies. Their lures also smell faintly sweet, like honey.
