It has powerful ostrich legs ending with sharp talons. Its body looks like that of an eagle with its wings and its head looks like that of a hummingbird with the long beak. Its feathers are a strangle silvery metallic sheen.Explorers found these birds in coastal riffs and islands, and many have a difficult time looking at these creatures, due to their mirror-like feathers. They were named “mithral wing”, because these birds were believed to be made out of mithral, the lightest metal, and still be able to fly.    Mithral wings are pure organic creatures nonetheless. The metallic sheen is caused by an oil secreted by the bird in order to keep it cool and sleek, yet it can reflect light. These birds live on riffs boarding ocean and lakes. They use their pick-like beaks to dig through stone in order to make their nests and their talons ensure a good grip when digging. They feed on fishes and aquatic plants.    Some local tribes tame mithral wings as mounts and beasts of burden and their feathers also make comfortable clothes.    Mithral wings are 6 feet tall and weighs around 70 lbs.CombatMithral wings are territorial and very protective when guarding their chicks. They start by flapping their wings in order to dazzle the intruders. If the foes are persistent, they lash out with their talons and thrust their beak. They retreat if the outcome seems desperate but mithral wings never retreat when guarding their offsprings.Reflective Feathers (Ex) : As a standard action, the mithral wing can flap its wings, creating a mirror-like shine. This creates a bright light that dazzles everyone in a 15-feet radius for 1d4 rounds. A Reflex save of DC 14 negates the dazzle condition for this round. Targets who succeeded the save can become dazzled again if they failed their next saving throws. The save DC is Constitution-based.Carrying Capacity : Despite being bipedal, mithral wings are treated as quadrupeds of the purpose of carrying capacity. A light load for a mithral wing is up to 114 pounds; a medium load, 115–230 pounds; and a heavy load, 231–345 pounds. A mithral wing can drag 1,725 pounds.</blockquote>
