Would it serve any real purpose? Maybe not. But I really think it would be at least neat if everyone had a Snipe that they could interact with, play with, and just have fun with while in Haven. Be able to give it a name, have it the same color as the player's personal color, have it fly around or sit on the player's head, all for the adorableness of it all.
I mean, come on, who sees those little devils flying around Haven and DOESN'T want to grab it and just rub their faces all over it while making something akin to baby noises?
Like fist of the north star.
