Species Standards
Prefered Habitat: All Izer (with the exception of frost) prefer warmer climates, from 70 degrees F on up to the
100's. They can be found anywhere from warm forests to jungles, but never plains... Unless they're simply
flying over them. They only nest in the tallest branches of trees also, making them hard to get to.
Diet: Izers diet can be varied; from fruit, nuts, and seeds... To small rodents and other prey. Please refer to
the breed differences however to make sure you get the right diet for your Izer.
Call: These creatures were once known make a horrible squaaaabing sound as babies and juveniles, but
luckily that stage is over. Now they have a nice range of noises... From the "Tsseeaaar" cry that can be
heard when they're soaring high up in the clouds, to the crow-like "Kaw!" or horrible screaming noise when
they're angry, and the gentle "parrot like" chatter when they're happy.
Special Care Needs: As babies and juveniles, these creatures were almost completely helpless. Now
however, they are not quite so... They are capable of flying, so if you haven't trained your Izer well, you may
wish to put it in a cage, or tie a teather to it's leg... Or worse still, clip it's wings... We suggest you train it
properly though. Izer also have beautiful plumage, which requires weekly care. They are able to groom
themselves, but if you wish their plumage to stay so beautiful, you may wish to take a moist soft-brisstle
brush and "bathe" the bird's feathers. Their claws also might need some clipping if you don't plan on using
the bird to hunt for you... They also need to have their beak trimmed, so plenty of things to chew on are a
good idea. Also, they need lots of attention, so you'll have to spend a lot of time with them, or they may
become depressed and molt.
Biology and Anatomy: Graceful and powerful, an Izer's strength is, understandably, flight. Their wings are
designed in a narrow, but broad span with the additional lift from their tail-fan, allowing them to glide on
updraughts for hours or zip through forests with ease. While not the swiftest birds, they're among the most
flexible, with motile necks and small wing-claws for grip. What some seem not to realise is that the 'mane'
of feathers behind the Izer's neck are not simply that, they in fact house a small extension of the skull
space--and help harbour the bird's fairly complex brain. The price for this, however, is energy, and while the
body is small, their gut is primed to make the most out of every morsel they eat--and they eat a lot of it.
Behavioral Study: If you raised your Izer yourself from it's hatching, then it should remember you as their
particular owner when you walk in the room - which shows incredible potential for a good memory, or
perhaps loyalty.
Suggested Uses: These creatures are said to be a very graceful flying bird that is un-equaled in
companionship to those who hand-raise it properly... Although Izer are flying birds, they have quite long
legs, and can walk about gracefully like a crane... That along with their beautiful plumage make them highly
desired in all sorts of aviaries. They are also sought after for general companionship - similar to parrots.
Some of them still are trained by falconers, or even as birds to carry messages and packages.

| Breeds Available |
Frost: It is rumored that the Frost breed will be more adapt to the colder regions of the world (I wonder
why)... The frost breed eats anything it can seem to get it's beak on, from fruits and seeds, to small rodents
it finds in it's snow-covered home.
Storm: The Storm breed sports pitch black feathers. It prefers to eat only rodents, and whatever other small
creatures it can scoup up in it's talons. There are rumors that the Storm breed was designed after the
"thunder bird", and can even cause the most torrent of Storms... But those are most likely just rumors.
Exotic: When younger, the exotic breed had dull reddish-brown feathers. But now it's plumage is vibrant pink
with highlights of odd colors. Truely eye-catching. The exotic breed is also the only Izer capable of Mimicing
human speech, as well as other various sounds it may hear (such as a cat's meow). The Exotic breed does
not hunt, but rather eats fruits and nuts only.
Golden: The Golden breed truely deserves it's name, for it's feathers shimmer and shine like gold! By the
opinion of most, the golden breed is sought after as the most beautiful of the Izer. It is said that these
amazing were designed after a golden bird-god, worshiped in a land far away. The golden breed prefers an
herbavore diet, but it is not unheard of that it will hunt small animals.
Earthen: The Earthen breed was made as almost an afterthought, and pumped full of growth hormones to
cause them to hatch and grow very quickly... Unfortunately, both the crafting, and the chemicals had..
side-effects.. The Earthen breed (rightly named) lacks most of it's coloration, and is instead quite.. dull.. like
dirt. It also seems to have difficulty flying in it's adult stage of life, but.. it CAN get off the ground..
