Birds
The Birds
are also a very sucessful group on Rona. In addition
to earth-like birds there are also those that have no wings at all, but only four legs. The Inji is a representative of the
latter category.
Inji
Height: 3 in
Le
ngth: 6in
Weight: 6 oz
The inji
is a rodent-like bird that lives in tunnels. It feeds on
the fruits and roots of the Hyperia plant which makes
up the bulk of the savannah plant life. It is a favorite
prey of many species including the Cymeadiah and the Lora.
By feeding on the fruits of the Hyperia plant, the Inji is
an important seed distributor an integral component of the
Savannah ecosystem.
The Four Winged Eagle
Height: 5ft
Wingspan: 8ft
The
four winged eagle is a predator/scavenger of many environments.
It's large size allows it to take down large prey or take over the kills of other predators. The second pair of wings are actually legs - with the feet tucked in in this view.
The Kenndir
The Kennedir are a group of similar predatory species that look very much like four footed eagles.
They are almost all extremely fleet footed and some are pack hunters. They have long thin feathered tails that they can hold high in the air for communication in tall grass.
Many species have a large dewclaw on the forelegs. They are roughly the ronan equivalent of wolves and other wild dogs.
