Two wide-spanning wings adorn their shoulder blades, the feathers longer and thicker than those that cover the rest of their bodies. A top layer of glossy, waterproof feathers cover downy, soft feathers underneath, all of which vary in color from subrace to subrace, black through to white, gingery colors, blonde and brown and even a pale blue coloring that tends to only be found in entirely tundra dwelling individuals, who tend to live in underground burrows or caves rather than the trees favored by inlanders. The skin on their thickly muscled arms and calves is generally pure black, each tipped with three sharp talons. They have large eyes adapted to a world of almost-permanent twilight, which are usually golden or yellow. On average their height range is similar to humans, but they have a wide range of sub-races, some of which are smaller than an Elgan and some of which are as large as a Tukkav or W'hoorn. | ||
They are built to live in a tundra, so have strong wings and legs, with thick plumage, and deep downy underfeathers. They are generally long-lived, living up to around 250 years old. They can eat anything, but are naturally carnivores, and are excellent at fishing, which they often do by diving through holes in the ice, beneath which they can swim very well, insulated by their waterproof feathers. They compliment the meat and fish they consume with fruit and foliage | They are built to live in a tundra, so have strong wings and legs, with thick plumage, and deep downy underfeathers.
