== 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 particularly large kind of [[luckspren]] only found on Aimia and must migrate there every few years to do so. Larkin can grow to great sizes but most now remain small, likely because they aren't bonding luckspren. It is unclear what the difference between larkin and [[lanceryn]] is but they are very closely related.{{wob ref|6497}} Of the few larkin that exist, Chiri-Chiri is the only known creature to travel and bond a mandra in a long time.{{book ref|sa3.5|19}}
* [[Brandon Sanderson]] and [[Isaac Stewart]] sometimes refer to them as "dragon bugs".{{wob ref|6429}}
* The Sleepless have crossbred their hordlings with larkin in able to gain the ability to drain Investiture.{{book ref|sa3.5|19}}
▲* Larkin are capable of hearing [[rhythm]]s, similar to [[singers]].{{book ref|sa4|i|8}}
