Picked up WoW recently and the hawkstriders got me to thinking about general fantasy bird mounts (chocobos, peco pecos, etc). I think they'd make a really neat adopt concept! Imagine, different feather types like found in real world birds! Fantasy colors or colors based off rl birbs (not gonna lie was watching a robin out the window while making dinner and thinking how cute those colors would be). Fancy bird tack???? Yes!!
Lore-wise I think that could be left up to the adopter! They could be used as modern horse eventing type stuff or for your dnd campaign or maybe a big cavalry? Possibilities!
My hand tremors make clean lines difficult to achieve, but boy I am tempted to try.
