AION 2 Kernon Pet — The boss-named capture pet
Kernon is not one of the five newsletter reward pets — it is one of the additional collectible creatures the global client’s community pet database tracks. The database lists it under the “Feral” creature-type bucket and records how it is obtained: captured via the field-capture pipeline — the global database lists it as a feral capture pet whose obtaining item is "Pet: Kernon".
