This is an Orbling.
So what exactly are these Orblings? Where do they come from?
Orblings are little creatures that seem to be a bit similar to gargoyles. Their bodies are made of stone - still, they come with all kinds of patterns on their body and their wings and antlers are very colorful. Their antlers have "bulbs" that give a soft glow off them.
These Orblings reside in a dimension called 'Whimsyville' where everything is cute and only Orblings exist - they live together in harmony and fear nothing but water, which they are all afraid of.
Orblings seem to love candy of all sorts. Perhaps you'll be able to lure one using candy!
Airborne Orblings is a RNG-based series of adoptables created by BraveEguana. An Orbling is always created on the same base, but with 20,000 different ways an Orbling can look - and that is without their accessories! With accessories, there are WAY over a MILLION (1,000,000) different possibilities.

A: We'll see what the future holds!
