Hu Po (Amber) - Hu Po the Hippo
When Hupo the Hippo's spirit was floating
she would run in circles and cause a traffic
jam with the other Hippos. All that horsing around caused some
flesh wounds, so when she got injured she would drink cranberry
juice to help generate flesh, and promote
healing.
Hu Po had many sleepless nights (cc: yin deficiency) when she got pregnant (cc: pregnancy).
