Noogle

: A cat with owl wings. They wear a propeller hat, which helps them hover in mid-air, as well as a bell and a cloth pouch with slips of fortunes around their necks. When they are standing still, their default facial expression makes them look as though they are either asleep on their feet or aghast at the sight before them. However, a smirking expression directed at a non-bird is a sign of trouble for their target: the latter is about to become catnip.

While not rare, noogle sightings are uncommon. They sometimes appear to lost

travellers or people seeking an oracle for counsel. A fortune can be obtained from a noogle in exchange for a good deed, large or small, usually to be completed by the requester within a year of receiving the fortune. If the counsel seeker neglects to fulfill the deed, or completes it with ill intentions, a significant misfortune may befall them.

It is said that dreaming of a noogle on the first night of a new year will

bring good fortune to the dreamer for the year.
