General:
Plumed Nysts, also known as Mountain Peacocks, are agile lamb-sized creatures which live at high elevations. Their name comes from the large "plume" of feathers, bigger on the male than the female. They use these feathers for attracting mates, scaring off predators, and intimidating rivals. Plumed Nysts live for a very long time, fourty-sixty years depending on where they live. Nysts, instead of fur, have feathers, even though they are mammals. They have two layers of feathers, extremly fine, fur-like down that keeps them warm, and larger, bird-like feathers to keep out wetness and such. Nysts eat berries and such when they need to, but usually rely on rodents and birds to keep them fed. Occasionally they can be seen taking down a larger animal, such as mountain goat, hunting in small packs of five to ten Nysts. Plumed Nysts usually live within only their close relatives, te parents, grandparents, single aunts and uncles, and siblinbgs. Sometimes though, when food gets scarce, families join up to make larger packs.
Coloration:
Plumed Nysts usually have a at least some natural pelt with any colored markings, they never have a bright/neon unnatural colored base, and uncommonly have an bright/unnatural base. Solid colors are also rare. Both gender's plumes have dazzling patterns and colors, there are almost no limits to their plumes. Their colors usually go together well and never clash. There are many variations of plumed nysts, some rarer than others. The rarest ones are the ones come from the himilayas, those are specail because they sometimes have glowing feathers, adapted to locate each other in the fierce and sudden snowstorms.
Some other varieties include African Nysts, which are always spotted or striped very boldly.
Behavior:
Plumed Nysts can be very active, playful pets and need a lot of care. They require lots of attention and if their owner takes good care of them, a Plumed Nyst can grow very attached to the owner. When you first bring them home, Plumed Nysts will want to explore and test out everything, so be prepared to keep an eye on them.

Subspecies:
Subspecies are types of plumed nysts. There are common ones (from north America), and then there are exotic ones, like those from the himilayas.
This Plume Nyst is:
○Domestic (Anywhere)- Common
Usually smaller than regular, (fox-sized) and this type can be almost any fur color. They can be genetically mutated to be even pink. They have a variety of fur types too.
