When their creators are more than 100 feet away, they cry loudly with a sound that resembles children of the creator’s own species.

Nurturing the growing brood requires consuming specific muds, ashes, and plants, which cost 50 gp/day for each incubating broodiken.

During this time, the creator becomes fatigued after four hours without eight hours’ rest. \nIf the creator is not a spellcaster, a spellcaster who meets the requirements below must supervise the incubation and birth.
