Happy New Year! Creature 1472, Molten Arkai

[sammythethief]

I love the subtle difference in the deep shade of teal on the males versus the lighter teal on the females!

These definitely make me feel like it's January of 2010 again and I'm seeing the Arkai for the first time

Very pretty colors!

The colors are really nice, love the teal colors.

I think the name choice though should be changed, Phoenix Arkai should be Molten Arkai, and these maybe should be renamed to phoenix?
just a small suggestion.

These ones are based on metals, so their name comes from molten metal. The phoenix arkais are based on firey phoenix color schemes and get their name from that.

Adult description:

Spoiler

By the time an arkai has reached adulthood, it has fully grown into its powers. These birds have mastered the element of light, and at times shine with it. Once a year they gather to mate, and the sky is brightened with their ritual dances. The eggs are easy enough to find, their glows acting like beacons, visible from miles away. Because of this, adults guard their nests constantly, with at least one adult always on the lookout. Once fully grown into their powers, arkai birds are not easy creatures to defeat. These lovely companions are capable of conjuring bolts of lightning down from the sky. These lightning bolts are carefully aimed at any enemy, and decimate anything they hit. Like all powers, though, this magic will eventually tire the arkai, making them more susceptible to attack. These skills are not commonly needed at the castle, where fights are kept to a minimum, but arkai like to travel far and wide. They are ideal companions for travel, needing no more sleep than their magi and supplying their own meals. Arkai gain their energy from the sun itself, needing no more sustenance than its rays. They appear somewhat reptilian in nature, as they are distant cousins of quetzalcoatls. Arkai birds come in many varying colors, though the newest arrivals at the Keep are widely varied. Some come in bright golds, with brilliant plumage in shades of burnt copper, and all bear the stunning feathers their kind are famous for.
