Scalion

Scalion are a race of sparkly fish that have taken hold in most bodies of water. They are usually used to make fancy items using their scales.

Biology and Behavior
Scalion are a peaceful and simple fish species. They have a mating season in the winter, where both parents keep the eggs tucked in rock inlets and protect them until hatching. This ironically draws attention to their nest from predators. This counterproductive instinct prevents overpopulation.

Hunting and Abilities
They feed on micro-organisms by sucking them up through the small mouth on its beak. Other than that, they have no defense mechanism.

Preparation
The scales are inedible and must be removed before cooking. It consists of almost entirely nutritious meat, the flavors of which are brought out most potently by roasting it over a flame, soaking it in Melbina berry juice, or butter.
