Fritz Falcons [Species Info]
9 years ago
Were you ever just sitting at your desk one day and suddenly your light begins to flicker? Or your computer starts to freeze up? Or your television starts to get all staticky? You could say that these items are "on the fritz", right? Well, look no further than a Fritz Falcon to blame for this!
What is a Fritz Falcon?:
A Fritz Falcon, or Fritz for short, is a bird like creature that is closer to a horse in terms of species. They do not exist on Earth in a physical form, but they exist in a higher plan of existence, about the same area as ghosts exist. They keep ghosts and spirits company, which is why when a ghost is near, lights will flicker, or radios will malfunction, etc. They are a very cheeky and mischievous animals, and are always hiding and stealing things from the real world.
Anatomy of a Fritz:
When it comes to Fritz Falcons, they are broken down into three seperate categories, ranging from most common, to super rare. All Fritz have either are very thin or very large. Nothing inbetween. Some are able to put on weight quickly, and others have a hard time with it. Some key things with Fritz is their long necks, their shorter back legs, and the amount of fluff that is present on their neck and the base of their tail/butt. Another key feature is that all of them have some sort of horn/s, spikes, etc. These are used mostly for defense purposes.
Another thing is that Fritz do come in male and female. Males are best known for their 'manes' that go from the standard neck fluff, all the way down their back, to their base of their tail fluff. Females do not have this connector. When it comes to reproduction, Fritz reproduce with eggs. Here is where it gets weird. Females will lay the egg, then her respective mate will incubate the egg until it hatches. The mother does not sit on the egg ever. Some weird bio stuff that we won't get into.
When Fritz are born however, they are born with a FULLY WHITE COAT! Since they are not yet influenced by their surroundings, their coats are pure white. The older the Fritz, the more intricate the design, and the less white.
Below are some key features when it comes to them being common, uncommon, and rare:
Common:
-Long Ears
-Long Tail
-Various shades of yellow beaks
-Large Wings
-All Paws
Uncommon:
-Short Ears
-Short Tail
-Various shades of orange beaks
-Small Wings
-Front Paws, Back hooves
Rare:
-No Ears (feather tufts instead)
-No tail (feather tufts instead)
-Various shades of brown beaks
-No Wings (Just protruding back feathers)
-All hooves
Where do Fritz Live?:
As mentioned before, they do not exist on Earth, rather they exist alongside ghosts and spirits. They are able to pop in and out of existence on Earth, but only the oldest and most powerful can do this. They are able to interact with the physical world, but often times if a person is around, they will not notice it. When it comes to their surroundings, their bodies are highly influenced by it. Below are some of the big things with where a Fritz will live:
Urban: They will have a lot of unnatural colors. Some may even possess some bio-luminescent markings. They are usually very thin, fast, and some of the most energetic. These ones tend to make higher pitched chirps and moans than the others.
Forests: These ones are usually the more uncommon/rare hang out spots. The Fritz that live here are often very spritely and often are the reason people believe in fairies. These ones tend to have more greens/yellows/browns markings. They often are more natural looking and are very good at being sneaky and camouflage.
Mountains: These Fritz are usually fluffier than most since most mountains are colder. They are great climbers, and are often more bulkier. These ones are often wearing skull masks. Why? Mountain Fritz are often the warrior Fritz and protect any surrounding herds since they can see a lot of the land from the mountains.
Tundra/Snow/Cold: Next to the mountain Fritz, these ones are the FLUFFIEST there is! These ones also are more chubbier than any other ones. They often have fully white coats, or white with a few lighter brown markings or even dark brown markings, despite their age. These Fritz tend to have larger horns to move the snow and what not for when they are building their homes.
Sea/Lakes/Rivers: Water oriented Fritz are special. If they are born by the water or in the water, they are born with fins instead of feathers, but still have fur too. If they migrate there, or they end up by the water, they still have feathers. Water oriented Fritz often are the slimmest ones, and the best swimmers, but not the best fliers. These ones usually have smaller horns and spikes to not get in the way of their swimming. These ones also have more white/blue/light browns as their markings and what not.
Desert: Fritz that live in the desert tend to have orange/brown/yellow coats and have the least fur. They tend to be the slowest Fritz, but know how to keep cool. They often enjoy mud when it does come around, and love the bugs of the desert.
Lifestyle:
Fritz Falcons can not be caught, but they can become tame or okay around humans.
