Siph is a Sapphire Yoshi kid. This is a rare coloring of Yoshi, a fact Siph is proud of. He is always quick to correct anyone who mistakenly calls him a blue Yoshi. His color gives him no real advantages or disadvantages (other than being a little sparkly); he can basically do anything a normal Yoshi can do. Siph enjoys annoying his friends, though it's all in good fun, and he never does anything too extreme. He always thinks of a person's feelings before he acts. Because of his trouble-making nature and the wisdom he uses to guide it, it's easy to forget Siph's age. Siph is extremely sensitive, and gets easily depressed and tearful when he is reminded of his mortality and that of others, especially his friends. But he is brave, and loyal to the ones he cares about. He is never afraid to fight for them.
