Fredauon Fun Fact #1:
The Elves lost the Great War against the Wizard Republic even though they [the Elves] had domesticated telepathic (flightless) parrots.
Are the parrots sapient? I'm guessing so if they're telepathic.
You got it. The Wizards were more technologically adavanced and could use 'real' telecommunication.WeepingElf wrote: ↑23 Jan 2024 22:25 Do they use those telepathic parrots as biological mobile telephones?
Chocobo theme intensifies
Ditto. Especially the water bears. Shame they're evil though.eldin raigmore wrote: ↑24 Jan 2024 09:00 I am very interested by your use of all these weird species.
Then who occupies the aerial niches? Bats?
Huh, coolCreyeditor wrote: ↑25 Jan 2024 20:59 As I once said: "Everybody is living on the ground except the flishes and the floxes."
So, bats, flying foxes and related animals, and flying fish mainly. Oh, and jet squid. I probably forgot some minor species but those are the main ones.
Yeah - my Elves are just humans, too.
By "flying fox" do you mean the kind of bat or a literal fox that flies, vulpes volans, if you will.Creyeditor wrote: ↑25 Jan 2024 20:59 Everybody is living on the ground except the flishes and the floxes
Difficult question. Do we know for sure how flightlessness came about in Earth birds? I think, I tried to read up on it and there are competing analyses. Right now, I think, I have to say that at least some of the birds never evolved from flighted birds on Fredauon.VaptuantaDoi wrote: ↑25 Jan 2024 22:09 Were the birds ever flighted, or did they just evolve straight from land-dwelling dinosaurs?
The kind of bat. I really like the flexibility for conworlding because they can be pretty bat-like but also huge and herbivorous.lurker wrote: ↑25 Jan 2024 23:30By "flying fox" do you mean the kind of bat or a literal fox that flies, vulpes volans, if you will.Creyeditor wrote: ↑25 Jan 2024 20:59 Everybody is living on the ground except the flishes and the floxes
