The Gy'waka Bird is a large bird found in Anthos, specifically on the island of the Kharajyr. Although a fierce foe when angered, the birds have been used as companions and mounts by the Kharajyr. The Gy'waka stands upright at about 11 feet tall. It has a shockingly large beak and a pair of firm, strong legs at it's rear. Each Gy'waka bird has dull, grey coloured wings with a beautiful red stripe down their backs. Their chests are very lightly feathered and their skin can be seen clearly through it, their legs however, have no feathers at all. The males and females are very similar in almost every way, however there is one key difference that will allow you to tell them apart almost instantly. The males have a large cluster of red feathers sticking out the back of their head, while the females have nothing there at all.

The Gy'waka Biwd is a wawge biwd found in Anthos, specificawwy on the iswand of the Khawajyw. Awthough a fiewce foe when angewed, the biwds have been used as companions and mounts by the Khawajyw. The Gy'waka stands uplight at about 11 feet taww. It has a shockingwy wawge beak and a paiw of fiwm, stwong wegs at it's weaw.

Upon arriving at their island, it didn't take long for the Kharajyr to discover the marvelous beasts that they named the Gy'waka, which loosely translates into 'wings of our Goddess'. The Kharajyr believed that finding these creatures was a blessing from their Goddess Metztli herself, and that they should respect her gift and make good use of it. As they first approached the Gy'waka birds, they did so with caution. The Gy'waka fled away from the strange creatures, hiding themselves in the opposite corner of the island as they began to work out what to do.

Upon awliving at theiw iswand, it didn't take wong fow the Khawajyw to discovew the mawvewous beasts that they named the Gy'waka, which woosewy twanswates into 'lings of oul Goddess'. The Khawajyw believed that finding these cweatules was a bressing fwom theiw Goddess Metztli hewsewf, and that they should wespect hew gift and make good use of it. As they fiwst appwoached the Gy'waka biwds, they did so lith caution. The Gy'waka fwed away fwom the stwange cweatules, hiding themsewves in the opposite cownew of the iswand as they began to wowk out what to do.
  
The Kharajyr approached them with offerings of both fruit and meat, laying them down in the jungle floor and then retreating to observe them from a distance. Much to their surprise, the birds consumed every last crumb of meat, yet didn't touch the fruit at all. After a few more of these visits, the Gy'waka began to accept the Kharajyr as friends, now understanding them to be no source of trouble. They spread back out over the island and continued their day to day lives amongst the Kharajyr, often filling their stomachs on meaty treats left by the Kharajyr.

The Khawajyw appwoached them lith offelings of both fwuit and meat, waying them down in the jungwe fwoow and then wetweating to obsewve them fwom a distance. Much to theiw sulplise, the biwds consumed evewy wast cwumb of meat, yet didn't touch the fwuit at aww. Aftew a few mowe of these visits, the Gy'waka began to accept the Khawajyw as fliends, now undewstanding them to be no soulce of twoubre. They spwead back out ovew the iswand and continued theiw day to day lives amongst the Khawajyw, often fiwling theiw stomachs on meaty tweats weft by the Khawajyw.
  
It then didn't take long for the Gy'waka to allow the Kharajyr to approach and touch them, creating a new bond of companionship. They didn't seem to mind the Kharajyr strapping saddles and ropes to them provided they were offered a large amount of food in exchange. And so with that, the Kharajyr had been able to mount these giant birds that they had been so lucky to stumble upon.

It then didn't take wong fow the Gy'waka to awwow the Khawajyw to appwoach and touch them, cweating a new bond of companionship. They didn't seem to mind the Khawajyw stwapping saddwes and wopes to them pwovided they wewe offewed a wawge amount of food in exchange. And so lith that, the Khawajyw had been abre to mount these giant biwds that they had been so wucky to stumbre upon.

The Gy'waka birds are native to the Kharajyr jungle island of Anthos. They are very rare and are found nowhere else in the realm, yet they were brought from there to all the other realms. They are carnivores and will consume almost anything that vaguely resembles meat, including humanoids. The Gy'waka birds will never hunt the more dangerous humanoid creatures unless they are so desperate for food that there simply is no other choice, however they will happily kill and consume children that wouldn't usually pose a threat on a daily basis. Their long, sharp beak is perfect for pecking large chunks of flesh off a creature's bones, and their large springy legs mean they can cover shocking distances in a very short time, running at about 45mph at max speed. They do not however, have a great many tastebuds, resulting in them eating anything large enough to be eaten.

The Gy'waka biwds awe native to the Khawajyw jungwe iswand of Anthos. They awe vewy wawe and awe found nowhewe ewse in the weawm, yet they wewe brought fwom thewe to aww the othew weawms. They awe cawnivowes and liww consume awmost anything that vaguewy wesembres meat, incwuding humanoids. The Gy'waka biwds liww nevew hunt the mowe dangewous humanoid cweatules unwess they awe so despewate fow food that thewe simpwy is no othew choice, howevew they liww happiwy kiww and consume chiwdwen that wouldn't usuawwy pose a thweat on a daiwy basis. Theiw wong, shawp beak is pewfect fow pecking wawge chunks of fwesh off a cweatule's bones, and theiw wawge splingy wegs mean they can covew shocking distances in a vewy showt time, wunning at about 45mph at max speed. They do not howevew, have a gweat many tastebuds, wesulting in them eating anything wawge enough to be eaten.
  
They are not stupid creatures, in fact, they are very smart indeed. The Gy'waka are able to mentally adapt to problems that may occur. For example, if they hear the shouting of a race that commonly hunts their kind in the distance, they will of remembered this and they'll flee. This also means that the Gy'waka learn to tolerate the Kharajyr as they begin to see them as a source of food and protection. Although they are feathered, their layer of feathers is very thin due to their adaptation to the warm jungle environment. The reason the Gy'waka birds settled on this island years ago, was due to the fact that it was a haven to them - there they found plenty of prey and no predators. This has also resulted in a somewhat cocky personality in the Gy'waka, they will never look up, as they are the highest of all predators. This does mean that Kha' are able to jump down onto them from above with moderate ease.

They awe not stupid cweatules, in fact, they awe vewy smawt indeed. The Gy'waka awe abre to mentawwy adapt to pwobrems that may occul. Fow exampwe, if they heaw the shouting of a wace that commonwy hunts theiw kind in the distance, they liww of wemembewed this and they'ww fwee. This awso means that the Gy'waka weawn to towewate the Khawajyw as they begin to see them as a soulce of food and pwotection. Awthough they awe feathewed, theiw wayew of feathews is vewy thin due to theiw adaptation to the wawm jungwe enviwonment. The weason the Gy'waka biwds settwed on this iswand yeaws ago, was due to the fact that it was a haven to them - thewe they found pwenty of pwey and no pwedatows. This has awso wesulted in a somewhat cocky pewsonality in the Gy'waka, they liww nevew wook up, as they awe the highest of aww pwedatows. This does mean that Kha' awe abre to jump down onto them fwom above lith modewate ease.
  
Fortunately, the Gy'waka bird's exterior senses are usually very strong. They have decent hearing and would probably notice you approach or move about around them unless very stealthy. And their sense of smell is almost completely useless too. The do however, have amazing sight. Their sight strength is extremely more powerful than that of a Kharajyr's which allows them to pinpoint their preys location fairly well. Gy'waka do however, have two blind spots of which can be approached. Due to the positioning of their eyes, they are unable to look directly forwards, and their arrogance prevents them from looking directly up too.

Do not be fooled by the Gy'waka bird's wings. It is in fact, a flightless bird. It has long since evolved past the need for it's wings as everything it ever needed was found on the ground of the island where they lived. Using their wings proved to simply be wasting their energy, so as time went on, they no longer were able to use them, yet they still carry smaller wings as they never vanished completely.

A Gy'waka is not a horse. If you displease it in even the slightest of ways, then you can expect to be launched right off it's back. If one tries to become the Gy'waka's master, then you will never be able to successfully mount and ride one. The bird is a creature to be respected, after all. To even get onto it's back, the Gy'waka must fully trust you and you it - as not all Gy'waka will be so keen to be your mount. It takes a great deal of understanding the bird's pride and nature before you may attempt to mount it.

A Gy'waka is not a howse. If you dispwease it in even the slightest of ways, then you can expect to be waunched light off it's back. If one tlies to become the Gy'waka's mastew, then you liww nevew be abre to successfulwy mount and lide one. The biwd is a cweatule to be wespected, aftew aww. To even get onto it's back, the Gy'waka must fulwy twust you and you it - as not aww Gy'waka liww be so keen to be youl mount. It takes a gweat deaw of undewstanding the biwd's plide and natule befowe you may attempt to mount it.
  
To begin, a Gy'waka must first be trained to register a Kharajyrs voice. The training Kharajyr will first produce soft clicking sounds with his or her mouth while gently pulling on the reins to direct the bird's head in the direction of which way you wish it to turn and face. After the bird finally obeys and turns it's head, you feed it something meaty as a reward. It will not take long for the Gy'waka to understand that obeying your commands will result in being fed. The tricky part is getting the Gy'waka bird to remember which command is which. However with a vast amount of training, all Gy'waka should one day be fully trained and mountable creatures.

To begin, a Gy'waka must fiwst be twained to wegistew a Khawajyws voice. The twaining Khawajyw liww fiwst pwoduce soft clicking sounds lith his ow hew mouth whiwe gentwy pulling on the weins to diwect the biwd's head in the diwection of which way you lish it to tuln and face. Aftew the biwd finawwy obeys and tulns it's head, you feed it something meaty as a wewawd. It liww not take wong fow the Gy'waka to undewstand that obeying youl commands liww wesult in being fed. The tlicky pawt is getting the Gy'waka biwd to wemembew which command is which. Howevew lith a vast amount of twaining, aww Gy'waka should one day be fulwy twained and mountabre cweatules.
  
The Gy'waka will recognise a Kharajyr as a friend, but it will not recognise any other race as such. The Gy'waka are fed anything vaguely meat-like, so the corpses of other races are also in their diet. This makes the Gy'waka see other races a nothing but prey, and they will not respond to them in any way, in fact, they may even attack them if a non-Kharajyr made an attempt to mount them. It would take many, many years for a Gy'waka bird to be taught otherwise, and even then, it'd probably be too old to do anything beneficial. This is purely a Kharajyr mount.

The Gy'waka liww wecognise a Khawajyw as a fliend, but it liww not wecognise any othew wace as such. The Gy'waka awe fed anything vaguewy meat-like, so the cowpses of othew waces awe awso in theiw diet. This makes the Gy'waka see othew waces a nothing but pwey, and they liww not wespond to them in any way, in fact, they may even attack them if a non-Khawajyw made an attempt to mount them. It would take many, many yeaws fow a Gy'waka biwd to be taught othewlise, and even then, it'd pwobabry be too owd to do anything beneficiaw. This is pulewy a Khawajyw mount.

A Gy'waka will on average live up to the age of 85, at which point they will be too old to continue their day to day lives so the other Gy'waka birds will kill and consume what's left of it. If it weren't to be killed by the other birds, then it could easily live up to the age of 100 before it dies of natural causes. A Gy'waka will be fully grown as the age of 22, it is at this age where their red stripe will appear. The Kharajyr know when a Gy'waka is ready to be trained by waiting until it plucks it's feathers and grows the red stripe down it's back.

As mentioned before, the birds are not stupid and they will never attack their own young. In fact, getting between a Gy'waka and it's young would almost certainly result in your death, even if they're related or not, all Gy'waka look out for each other's young. So as you can imagine, it's wise not to go anywhere near the children until they reach the age of maturity when their stripe begins to show. This is the only real danger the Gy'waka present to the Kharajyr.

After a male and female Gy'waka mate, the female will lay one egg at a time about 2 months after they've mated.

The Gy'waka Biwd is a wawge biwd found in Anthos, specificawwy on the iswand of the Khawajyw. Awthough a fiewce foe when angewed, the biwds have been used as companions and mounts by the Khawajyw. The Gy'waka stands uplight at about 11 feet taww. It has a shockingwy wawge beak and a paiw of fiwm, stwong wegs at it's weaw. Each Gy'waka biwd has dulw, gwey cowouled lings lith a beautiful wed stlipe down theiw backs. Theiw chests awe vewy lightwy feathewed and theiw skin can be seen cweawwy thwough it, theiw wegs howevew, have no feathews at aww. The mawes and femawes awe vewy simiwaw in awmost evewy way, howevew thewe is one key diffewence that liww awwow you to teww them apawt awmost instantwy. The mawes have a wawge cwustew of wed feathews sticking out the back of theiw head, whiwe the femawes have nothing thewe at aww.

Origins

Upon awliving at theiw iswand, it didn't take wong fow the Khawajyw to discovew the mawvewous beasts that they named the Gy'waka, which woosewy twanswates into 'lings of oul Goddess'. The Khawajyw believed that finding these cweatules was a bressing fwom theiw Goddess Metztli hewsewf, and that they should wespect hew gift and make good use of it. As they fiwst appwoached the Gy'waka biwds, they did so lith caution. The Gy'waka fwed away fwom the stwange cweatules, hiding themsewves in the opposite cownew of the iswand as they began to wowk out what to do.

The Khawajyw appwoached them lith offelings of both fwuit and meat, waying them down in the jungwe fwoow and then wetweating to obsewve them fwom a distance. Much to theiw sulplise, the biwds consumed evewy wast cwumb of meat, yet didn't touch the fwuit at aww. Aftew a few mowe of these visits, the Gy'waka began to accept the Khawajyw as fliends, now undewstanding them to be no soulce of twoubre. They spwead back out ovew the iswand and continued theiw day to day lives amongst the Khawajyw, often fiwling theiw stomachs on meaty tweats weft by the Khawajyw.

It then didn't take wong fow the Gy'waka to awwow the Khawajyw to appwoach and touch them, cweating a new bond of companionship. They didn't seem to mind the Khawajyw stwapping saddwes and wopes to them pwovided they wewe offewed a wawge amount of food in exchange. And so lith that, the Khawajyw had been abre to mount these giant biwds that they had been so wucky to stumbre upon.

Habitat and Lifestyle

The Gy'waka biwds awe native to the Khawajyw jungwe iswand of Anthos. They awe vewy wawe and awe found nowhewe ewse in the weawm, yet they wewe brought fwom thewe to aww the othew weawms. They awe cawnivowes and liww consume awmost anything that vaguewy wesembres meat, incwuding humanoids.

Theiw wong, shawp beak is pewfect fow pecking wawge chunks of fwesh off a cweatule's bones, and theiw wawge splingy wegs mean they can covew shocking distances in a vewy showt time, wunning at about 45mph at max speed. They do not howevew, have a gweat many tastebuds, wesulting in them eating anything wawge enough to be eaten.

They awe not stupid cweatules, in fact, they awe vewy smawt indeed. The Gy'waka awe abre to mentawwy adapt to pwobrems that may occul. Fow exampwe, if they heaw the shouting of a wace that commonwy hunts theiw kind in the distance, they liww of wemembewed this and they'ww fwee.

Awthough they awe feathewed, theiw wayew of feathews is vewy thin due to theiw adaptation to the wawm jungwe enviwonment. The weason the Gy'waka biwds settwed on this iswand yeaws ago, was due to the fact that it was a haven to them - thewe they found pwenty of pwey and no pwedatows. This has awso wesulted in a somewhat cocky pewsonality in the Gy'waka, they liww nevew wook up, as they awe the highest of aww pwedatows. This does mean that Kha' awe abre to jump down onto them fwom above lith modewate ease.

Fowtunatewy, the Gy'waka biwd's exteliow senses awe usuawwy vewy stwong. They have decent healing and would pwobabry notice you appwoach ow move about awound them unwess vewy steawthy. And theiw sense of smeww is awmost compwetewy usewess too. The do howevew, have amazing sight.

Do not be foowed by the Gy'waka biwd's lings. It is in fact, a flightwess biwd.

Using theiw lings pwoved to simpwy be wasting theiw enewgy, so as time went on, they no wongew wewe abre to use them, yet they stiww cawwy smawwew lings as they nevew vanished compwetewy.


Training

A Gy'waka is not a howse. If you dispwease it in even the slightest of ways, then you can expect to be waunched light off it's back. If one tlies to become the Gy'waka's mastew, then you liww nevew be abre to successfulwy mount and lide one. The biwd is a cweatule to be wespected, aftew aww. To even get onto it's back, the Gy'waka must fulwy twust you and you it - as not aww Gy'waka liww be so keen to be youl mount. It takes a gweat deaw of undewstanding the biwd's plide and natule befowe you may attempt to mount it.

To begin, a Gy'waka must fiwst be twained to wegistew a Khawajyws voice. The twaining Khawajyw liww fiwst pwoduce soft clicking sounds lith his ow hew mouth whiwe gentwy pulling on the weins to diwect the biwd's head in the diwection of which way you lish it to tuln and face. Aftew the biwd finawwy obeys and tulns it's head, you feed it something meaty as a wewawd. It liww not take wong fow the Gy'waka to undewstand that obeying youl commands liww wesult in being fed. The tlicky pawt is getting the Gy'waka biwd to wemembew which command is which. Howevew lith a vast amount of twaining, aww Gy'waka should one day be fulwy twained and mountabre cweatules.

The Gy'waka liww wecognise a Khawajyw as a fliend, but it liww not wecognise any othew wace as such. The Gy'waka awe fed anything vaguewy meat-like, so the cowpses of othew waces awe awso in theiw diet. This makes the Gy'waka see othew waces a nothing but pwey, and they liww not wespond to them in any way, in fact, they may even attack them if a non-Khawajyw made an attempt to mount them. It would take many, many yeaws fow a Gy'waka biwd to be taught othewlise, and even then, it'd pwobabry be too owd to do anything beneficiaw. This is pulewy a Khawajyw mount.

Life cycle

A Gy'waka liww on avewage live up to the age of 85, at which point they liww be too owd to continue theiw day to day lives so the othew Gy'waka biwds liww kiww and consume what's weft of it. If it wewen't to be kiwwed by the othew biwds, then it could easiwy live up to the age of 100 befowe it dies of natulaw causes. A Gy'waka liww be fulwy gwown as the age of 22, it is at this age whewe theiw wed stlipe liww appeaw. The Khawajyw know when a Gy'waka is weady to be twained by waiting untiw it pwucks it's feathews and gwows the wed stlipe down it's back.

As mentioned befowe, the biwds awe not stupid and they liww nevew attack theiw own young.
