Jontunn

##### *DISCLAIMER :: This species is extremely rare, and works a little differently from other creatures in the universe. Please read everything before adopting/trying for one. Also, due to the lore, and rarity of this species, species info must be followed when posting character sheets*

The rarest creature in all of Arilyan, the Jontunn are an exotic species you only find once in a lifetime. The largest being on the planet, they’re only born when a Legendary sized Mrefu breeds with an Exotic sized Granthrax, and even then, you only have a 1 out of 10 chances of getting one (Only 1 cub in the litter will be a Jontunn, as the Non-Jontunn mother can only physically carry 1. In a Jontunn x Jontunn breeding, there may be 2 cubs for each person).

Aging for a Jontunn is also a little different from others in Arilyan, with calves not reaching adulthood till 5 years, and sexual maturity at 6.
If two Jontunn breed, the mother will only have 1 cub if single breeding 2 if paired.

## Climate

* Unknown :: Due to the fact that they always seem to be moving, and are even said to wander in their sleep, no one’s really been sure as to where to find them. They don’t prefer the heat, but they won’t avoid the desert, so who knows?
* You can find them anywhere, however it’s one and a million chances of seeing them, even with how huge they are.

## Temperament

Due to their small numbers, they mostly live solitary lives, however they do like company. They are big friendly giants and are often some of the wisest because of how long they have been around.
That being said, Jontunn are often lonely creatures. They don’t mind this, taking it as “it is what it is”. Because of this loneliness, you’ll often find mothers staying with their cubs longer than other species, and cubs will only leave when they decide to go out and find a mate.
When it comes to mates, Jontunn will often mate for life, in fear they may never find another one of their own kind again. Because they wander, they don’t always stay together, but instead arrange places to meet when they know they will be ready to mate again. They would stay together, but as these creatures love to explore, and having two walking together can often disturb locals, they would rather go their separate ways then stay together and just meet up when it’s needed.

## Lifespan

Their total lifespan is unknown, however the adults that are around are said to be older than any other species on the planet.

## Other Random Facts

* Jontunn’s can only be bred with other Jontunns, and that’s it.
* Can be obtained via ordering as a full custom (not CYO), or from adopt auctions, breedings and events.
	+ Only 1 Jontunn Custom per person. If you sell or trade your one Jontunn Custom, you may not order another.
* Only come in one size; exotic.
* Are basically like finding a unicorn. It’s EXTREMELY hard to find one, and most creatures talk about them more like they’re a myth than a real thing.
* Aging crystals don't work on this species, and they must be over 6 years old (6 months in game time) to breed.

## In Packs

While they enjoy the company of others, they often worry about being a burden to packs. Because of their large diet, they don’t leave a lot for others to eat in an area, and not only that, but they don’t care for being stared at. You will never see a Jontunn in a pack, past the age of 20, as they feel the need to leave home and venture out on their own.
