Witchspire Familiar Reveal #1 - ROCKLINGS

Tracing the origins of the Rocklings is a tricky task. Not due to any lack of historical evidence; there’s plenty. Rather because it’s hard to know which accounts are trustworthy. If you’ve never encountered one of them, the idea that a stone had come to life and was acting curious might sound odd.

At any rate, for as long as there have been stories, there have been Rocklings. Or Shardlings. Or Charlings... And a dozen more similar looking creatures that even the most studied historian would struggle to keep track of.

They’re everywhere, and *mostly *harmless. Although they’ve been known to let their curiosity get the better of them (and those around them) on many, many occasions.

“A day spent following a Rockling could be mediocre, or the adventure of a lifetime. Who knows why they do the things they do? Perhaps they’re utterly stupid, or perhaps. Just perhaps… the most brilliant geniuses of the worlds.” - Gaela Pinegrove, founder of the Wildroots

Rocklings are generally quite aloof and cautious, particularly when encountered alone. Catch them in a group though, and it’s almost as if they’ve no concern in the world. To the untrained eye they might appear aggressive - and they’ll hurt you if you’re not careful, make no mistake. But they don’t act from malice. They’re simply unaware of the consequences of their actions. And curious to a fault.
