== Appearance and Anatomy ==
Larkin are generally between a hand and a small melon in size.{{wob ref|1080}} They are somewhat similar to [[cremling]]s in appearance, although, unlike the cremlings' crabbish faces, the larkin have small faces, like those of [[axehound]]s, with a snout, mouth, and shimmering eyes of solid silver, as well as wings that fold out of their backs. Their wings are strong enough that they can fly, at least short distances.{{wob ref|1080}}{{book ref|sa2|i|3}}{{book ref|sa2|i|9}} During their lifespan a larkin bonds a particular kind of luckspen(mandras) only found on Aimia and must migrate there every few years to do so. Larkin used to grow to great sizes but most now never reach maturity. It is unclear what the difference between larkin and [[lanceryn]]is but they are very closely related.{{wob ref|6497}}
Larkin may have some sort of special connection to the [[Tai-na]]; [[Vstim]] says that [[Chiri-Chiri]] is given to [[Rysn]] by [[Relu-na]] itself.{{book ref|sa2|i|3}} They are also very closely related to [[lanceryn]].{{wob ref|6497}}▼

=== Feeding on Investiture ===
The most outstanding feature of larkin is their ability to feed on [[Investiture]] (commonly [[Stormlight]], as they originate from Roshar). This ability is related to both [[Chromium#Allomantic Use|Leechers]] and [[Nightblood]].{{wob ref|5023}} They can suck Stormlight out of [[Surgebinder]]s and [[Shardplate]] at will, causing the Light to stream visibly through the air and into the larkin's mouth.{{book ref|sa2|i|9}}{{wob ref|3864}} Larkin can also eat Stormlight that has been stored in gems and drain the [[Voidlight]] from a [[Fused]]. After absorbing a large amount of Stormlight from the [[King's Drop]], Chiri-Chiri becomes noticeably bigger.{{book ref|sa3|i|13}} Since larkin feed on Investiture, they are incapable of pushing it ''into'' people.{{wob ref|3231}} Larkin cannot feed on the Investiture of a person clad in [[aluminum]] or [[Shardplate]], though they can feed on the Shardplate itself.{{wob ref|3864}}
