Babbit

Babbits are a small rodent. It is the collective term for the three species of Babbit- Water, Fire and Passion Babbits. They are familiar throughout the world as a wild prey animal and has been known as a domesticated form of livestock and pet. They are commonly used as food, clothing or as a companion. Male Babbits are called Bucks, females are called Does. A young Babbit is a Bunny or Kit.

Water Babbits
The water Babbit was a creation of the God Stallis, one of the three conjoined Gods who make up Tribien.

Water Babbits have the power to walk across water and purify dirty water with their touch. They travel across grassland and wooded areas in search of water to purify by following the winds.

Physiologically, the are covered in fur, with large ears and eyes. They use their hind legs to bound quickly, helpful to get away from predators. When they move, water streams out from various openings in their pelt. Water babbits are naturally waterproof, from their fur being made of keratin, and the natural oils from their skin.

Of the three subspecies of Babbit, the Water Babbit is most commonly found as a pet, due to their calming nature, handability and proficiency at cleaning well water.

Fire Babbits
The fire Babbit was a creation of the God Fentire, one of the three conjoined Gods who make up Tribien.

Fire Babbits have naturally fireproof fur across their bodies and face, from the natural oils from their skin. They have long, flowing flames on their ears, cheeks, neck and chest. Additionally, their tails are also shrouded in firely plumage. When they bound, they gain a dazzling red glow. They have large ears and large eyes, which face more forward than either of the other two subspecies of Babbit.

Fire Babbits can heal themselves by dousing themselves in additional fire. Essentially, they can set shrubbery on fire and then use the flames to heal themselves, making them hardy Babbits. They are often found in warm, open grasslands and lightly wooded areas.

Of the three, they are also the hardest to catch, and are rarely kept as pets or livestock, due to the difficulty of keeping them.

Passion Babbits
The passion Babbit was a creation of the God Viribus, one of the three conjoined Gods who make up Tribien.

Passion Babbits are furred rodents, with, unlike the two other subspecies of Babbit, have no elemental characteristics. They have short, straight light pink hair made from Keratin. Their ears and eyes are relatively small for a Babbit. They also have the shortest hind legs, making them the slowest subspecies of Babbit.

Also known as the Cupid Babbit, they are known for their ability to heighten the feeling of desire when their fur is touched.

Unfortunately, they are also an aphrodisiac when consumed, and blackmarket sales of Passion Babbits have caused a massive decline in their wild population, leading them to being classed as endangered.
