Plumerians

Plumerians

Plumerians don't seem fully canine or feline. Their anatomy is similar to a mix of that of a fox and a leopard. Their feathers are fully connected to their bodies, and can't be removed without force. As kits, their feathers are very small and down, but they form more fully and grow more vibrant as the kits do. Feathers *do not* grow back if they are lost, but it is very unusual for a Plumerian to lose their feathers, as they're quite firmly attached. They're thought to be used to attract mates and startle predators. Plumerians are omnivorous. Their diet mainly consists of insects, but it's often supplemented with small animals, leaves, nuts, and berries. Individuals may also show preferences for other foods, so their diets are highly varied. Their glowing beads may be used to attract insects and small creatures, in the way an anglerfish attracts prey in the sea. They can bob and weave a lot, and often look like small fireflies in the night. They commonly attract moths.
