May I present! The first Part of my Series of "Changeling/Mimic Sky Kid Creature" differentiated by the realms they live in!

More detailed post about the Lore and Idea itself

First one on the list:

ISLE OF DAWN

More extended dive into their lore below the cut :D

Due to the Isle of Dawn literally containing almost nothing but sand and a few rocks (minus the extra regions, I am only gonna consider the main ones for this idea) I gave the Sky critters of this realm mole focused features.

They live underground in an extended tunnel system, which are roughly divided into multiple sections belonging to smaller groups of 3-5 kids per section. Their eyes are basically non existent, therefore the kids themself are blind and rely on their hearing and the feeling of vibrations for orientation.

Concluding from this you will see them stumbling around like a new born if they do walk above ground, which in the end does not pull too much attention to them due to the realm being known as the first region for new born moths to explore.

Caused to their lifestyle underground, Mole-Kids are usually smaller than the standard Sky-Kid, which could be suspicious for any older Sky-Kid, knowing that such a Chibi-Size in a moth state is a rare, if not even an impossible sight.

Instead of fingers they have long, sturdy claws on each hand, which they use exclusively for digging their tunnels and caves. Because of them, their hands, when put in disguising gloves, show a distinct pointy tip and are wider than the normal Sky Kids hand. On their feet they have 2 big claws, which show in a similar way than their hand camouflage.

Because any kind of clothing is pretty hindering when digging thru sand and earth, the mole-kids are never seen with a cape and only wear the classy moth fit, which they scavengered from Sky kids that never ventured further than the Isle of Dawn. It is rare for any butterflies or vets to pass thru the realm which additionally limits them in their selection of clothing or masks in general.

Their diet mostly consists of salamanders or other small critters living in the dunes of the realm and occasionally a few of the butterflies that are swarming around between the bigger rocks.

Compared to the other Sky-Creatures, the Mole-Kids are very harmless. Even if their teeth are looking quite scary, with their four pronounced canine teeth, they are easy to evade from. They are very curious nonetheless and sometimes dare to come closer to new moth to take them by the hand and walk with them for a while, being happy to not run into any rocks and just enjoy running around with someone taking the lead who can see.

Signs to distinguish a Mole-Kid from a Sky-Kid:

no cape

wide and pointy hand and feet

walking around like a toddler taking their first step

mask being worn upside down

paler color scheme/faded clothing color
