Snick-Snacks are small, flightless dragons that often tend to make nests out of clean socks, small stuffed animals and other items that are comfortable to lounge on. Sometimes seen as pests due to their inability to restrain themselves from taking items that jingle, it is actually easy enough to get your items back from the little creature!

Most of them are notorious sweet tooths, and for a small trade of something sweet, they will eagerly stuff the item in their mouth pouch and shove your beloved jingly item right back to you!

Snick-Snacks are generally sweet creatures that don't cause too much trouble!

Lore:

Discovered recently by a curious scientist in Norway, Snick-Snacks were found when he had heard a peculiar sound from beneath his bed. After his discovery they quickly began being discovered all over the Nordic countries. It’s possible they may even be found outside the Scandinavian region, as more are being found while news spreads about them!

Snick-Snack dragons vary in size, ranging from 2-12 inches tall, though the average is between 4 and 6 inches. They also vary in shape, markings and elements! Each Snick-Snack has an element it is attuned to and can use, though some may handle multiple elements which are very rare!

It seems that though there are various markings and traits Snick-Snacks possess, some are actually more common than others. Typically a Snick-Snack has a single horn, long ears with curled ends and a neck pouch much like a pelican, with various markings seeming to be common among them.

Surprisingly enough, Snick-Snacks are one of the few creatures that can reproduce no matter what gender the parents are! A coupling of two Snick-Snacks can sacrifice a portion of their magic to inhabit a small crystal, during the care of this crystal the young Snick-Snack will develop from anywhere from a few days to a couple weeks, gathering the energy it needs to hatch! During this phase, a young Snick-Snack can be attuned to a specific element if one chooses to go through the process of doing so.

Once a Snick-Snack is hatched, it’s element cannot be changed!
