Pensa
Pensas are extremely common long-eared tiny creatures that range any and all habitats across the entire world. They are one of the most adaptable of all Mystimon, able to adapt to just about any living conditions. As a result they range in a wide variety of shapes and colours. As such they also have a widespread effect on ecologies as well as cultures. They also have a remarkable ability to affect the Mystia that flows throughout the land, unseen anywhere else in the entire Mystimon kingdom.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Pensa are tiny four-legged Mystimon with long ears, long hind legs, short fluffy tail, and their feet are furred beneath, with large straight claws.
Biological Traits
Pensas have long been sought out for their remarkable ability to affect the Mystia in the land itself. They use this ability to cause grass and other plants to grow in places it can't possible grow. Mystia Casters trained in the ability to sense the flow of Mystia through the land say that Pensas appear to be able to completely redirect the flow of Mystia. For this ability alone, they are highly sought after to help with growing crops in places you wouldn't normally be able to, such as the sandy deserts in Northern Almahna.
Genetics and Reproduction
Females will ovulate after mating leading to rather short 30 day pregnancies and litters of 1 to 14 kits, or baby Pensas, often several times a year. The phrase, 'breeding like Pensas' was coined for this exact reason.
Growth Rate & Stages
Pensa Evos into Pensara and then into Pensrus.
Ecology and Habitats
Due to their remarkable ability, Pensas are able to range across and adapt to a wide variety of different habitats, often some they have no business even living in, such as sandy deserts and snowy mountains. Even in the frozen cold of the polar north and south.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Pensas are small herbivores, grazing on grass mainly.
Behaviour
They are generally harmless creatures and very docile. This, along with their remarkable ability, have led to them being domesticated and raised for a wide range of purposes.
Additional Information
Social Structure
Pensas live in large herds.
Domestication
The process of domesticating Pensas was extremely easy, given to their docile nature to start with. People have used Pensas as livestock for many generations since the opening years of the First Age, perhaps even before that. They are raised for their meat, fur, and wool, as well as their remarkable ability to redirect Mystia and cause greenery to grow in places it normally couldn't, such as a sandy desert or a snowy mountain. Such has allowed the people of Northern Almahna to grow crops of a wide variety.
Uses, Products & Exploitation
They are used for their meat, fur, and wool, as well as exploited for their ability to redirect Mystia, to allow farmers to grow crops in places they normally couldn't.
Facial characteristics
They are widely characterized for their long ears, cute face with cute black or brown eyes.
Geographic Origin and Distribution
Pensas are among the most common of all Mystimon, given to their amazing ability to adapt to any habitat. . . as well as their gift for procreation. As such, they can range from the sandy deserts of Northern Almahna, the mountains of Highwind, the plains of Southern Almahna, the forests of Olympus, even the frozen reaches of the polar north and south.
Average Intelligence
They can be remarkable intelligent, despite what people might thing.
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
Not only are they able to redirect the flows of Mystia, they are apparently able to also sense the Flow Lines. They use this ability to navigate. They also have a most curious thing, a tiny gem like object on the middle of their forehead, which may be the source of their remarkable abilities.
