An Arothuniir is a creature that has the many characteristics of everyday animals like horses, dogs, birds, rhinos, and lizards. These are herd animals that hunt and fight together, and whenever one of their kind goes astray the whole herd finds them. These creatures are omnivores, hunting small animals like rodents and lizards, feeding on vegetation, and even in for the grubs. The two long claws on an Arothuniir's hoof is used for digging up anything they can, grubs and plant life alike. Using their long tongues, the Arothuniir in Africa use it to lick up termites. They also use their claws for defense against carnivorous creatures that hunt them. The horns on the males are used in mating season to find a mate, but is also use to defend territory, protect their herd and even fight off predators. Aro's horns are tipped with poison strong enough to bring down an elephant, however, it seems the poison is not harmful to their own kind and it is actually a remedy for humans. The Arothuniir are as big as a normal horse, so sometimes you can fine people with one as a pet. However, these are wild beasts and they are very hard to tame. It is possible, but rare, to befriend a whole herd and be accepted by them, but it is very hard and it is not considered taming them. They may trust you then but they won't trust anyone else. The speed of these creatures is much faster than any horse, reaching the speeds of 60 MPH.
Due to their bright feathers humans are known to call these creatures "The Living Lanterns". Most Arothuniirs have the same patterns in their feathers; a darker color for the main part and then a really bright color at all the ends of the feathers. However, they are known to have many other patterns, that one is just the most common.
