The Cloudsdale are a nomadic species of sky ponies that follow the rain. In ancient times they were thought to be angelic messengers, freighting the departed souls to paradise. In more recent ages parents caution children from wandering out into the rain for fear that the LiXiang will carry them off and eat them up! Such tales have led humans to hunt the LiXiang for sale as exotic pets, though some choose to harvest the Cloudsdale for their wings - and the magical properties they are rumored to possess - rather than catching them whole and alive.
Type: Summon - Once a Cloudsdale is domesticated they are branded behind the ear with a magic rune. This symbol compels the LiXiang to come to the call of a whistle blown by their master, who is stamped with a matching rune on the inside of their bottom lip.
