Phoenixes are a species of powerful elemental bird that are native to The Sun Realm of Osira. These magnificent creatures embody the wild and unpredictable nature of fire and are often revered as champions of good, though some see them as agents of destruction.
Their enormous size is matched by their brightly colored feathers, ranging from orange to red and violet, and their beaks and claws are a striking blue-violet color. Their eyes glow like rubies, and their talons have the consistency of diamonds. The body of a phoenix is almost immaterial, composed of flame given solid shape, allowing them to pass through narrow passages and engulf their opponents in their fiery bodies.
Phoenixes are typically reclusive creatures and do not seek out conflict with others, but if provoked, they show relentless fury and destructive power. They have a strong aversion to undead and will attack them on sight. The phoenix is a creature of great power and is a symbol of rebirth and renewal, often associated with the rising sun and the cycle of life.
