Animals of Ziost, 5.
Freyla
Quadrupedal avians from Ziost, freylas can be found roaming in herds across the planet’s landscape.

Freylas are highly intelligent and versatile with clawed feet allow them to maintain traction throughout the various, cold environments. This makes them the ideal mount-animal on Ziost.
Generally freylas are not eaten, with a few rare exceptions once in a while. Imperials mostly use them for recreational purposes, racing, sporting, or for working on the farms and ranches.
The Sith on Ziost own many of the pedigree lines, with some freylas being valued in the tens of million credits. For the Sith, these animals are just another way to flaunt wealth and status among their kind. With the pureblood Sith, it is said that they will dress the freyals in ornate decorations for cultural ceremonies.
Aside from being mounts, their feathers are often collected and used. Coming in a rainbow of colors and often with different patterns, freylas have large plumage on the head and tail. These feathers are often turned into large fans for cantina dancers.
Tumblr media
With the recent inclusion of aliens into Imperial society some Miraluka have crafted their “eye coverings” from the smaller feathers. These small feathers are typically plucked from the forelegs, which are just as colorful as the tail and head, and arranged into miniature wings that cover where the eyes would be.
