The life cycle
'Birth - Maturity stages'
How the Jolle is Born and its Maturity!
✦ Omis and Eidrot have blessed and fused the two essences of the parents to form the core.
✦ Dust created from their magic begins to form around this core and Eidrot pummels the dusty amalgamation towards the ground with a cheeky grin - when seen from ground level, it looks like a meteor as the atmosphere burns the dust a little and solidifies like a biscuit!
✦ Once it crashes into the ground in its environment with the parents, the Jolle baby quickly develops and begins eating its way from the center of the formation out to its parents!
✦ The baby JR emerges and is covered in thick baby fluff colour tuned to its environment to help it camoflage more easily.
✦ Six months of development, markings and body traits have slowly formed on the baby and it begins a month of preening all its fur away from its body. Fellow baby Jolles may help preen each others back in return for theirs being done, else it is up to the parents to do!
✦ Once the month is complete, all the marking and traits are fully formed and you now have a fully mature Jolleraptor, these guys venture off from their parents into the new world and meet new people and scenes!

Death
The phase to rebirth
A Jolle can die for many reasons, predatory attacks, disease, fighting each other, being in the wrong environment, old age (note they can live 1000+ years) and even punished by the God of Destruction himself! But all Jolles are reborn eventually, They do remember their past lives through dreams and are almost certain to believe it! That's why they often have good dreams, they've either danced with the stars, met good humans, tried good food, chatted with a frog and every day of their past life plays as a dream in their current lifes nights. When a jolle changes colours and markings and the like, viewed by many outsiders as a redesign, its actually a form of reincarnation HOWEVER, when wrapped around by the cookie egg, they remain grounded away from Eidrot and upon hatching do NOT appear as a child due to partial metamorphosis - it does depend on the age of the jolle however, older ones may just reincarnate entirely (overhauled jolles). However when administered a JRM potion, the jolle skips reincarnation all together, which unfortunately IS painful for them to undergo because they're not protected by the comforting warmth of their healing cookie egg. |
These are the stages to death:
✦ As soon as a Jolle realises its dying, its smoke that it breathes becomes very heavy and is exhaled on every breath
✦ Each breath of smoke begins encasing the jolle and makes them lighter than air as they float up to where the God, Eidrot is when not in a temple
✦ The smoke suddenly heats up and disintegrates the Jolle's body painlessly, becoming dust and triggering a fusion like reaction
✦ This superheated reaction fuses the core and blessing of the Gods together once more and the smoke has become dust
✦ Eidrot pummels the dust into the planet again to its new environment, most often than not, randomly aimed - he has been known to accidentally ping them at the wrong planet--
✦ The birthing process begins once more for the newly revived Jolle and while not all retain their memories of past life, some studies suggest these little guys dream about who they were before!
