The Ice Phoenix

The Ice Phoenix is known for its amazing adaptations to the icy landscape that it calls home. Its longest flight feathers are shorter than they appear, owing their apparent length to a delicate encasing of ice that extends the feathers and allows the phoenix to fly. For this reason, the ice phoenix is unable to take flight if the ambient temperatures rise above freezing for too long as the creature’s body temperature can only keep the ice frozen for a limited amount of time. Without this ice, the phoenix is grounded and immensely vulnerable.

Indeed, the frigid body temperature of the ice phoenix is another marvel, so cold that the mere touch of liquid water can spell disaster, nearly instantly freezing around the phoenix’s body. It is beleived that this low body temperature is what causes the shimmering trails the phoenix leaves behind while in flight; the water in the air freezing as the phoenix passes through. Despite the danger that water may pose, the ice phoenix has a habit of gliding right above the water’s surface, seemingly just to watch the water beneath freeze over. Still, mystical as the creature may be, it still requires water to sustain itself, and it extracts this water through the small mammals it hunts. An opportunist, the ice phoenix will also eat small fruits such as berries when available, but they make up very little of the creature’s natural diet. When dehydrated - or even in the effort to keep its curved beak sharpened - the phoenix will go as far as consuming ice directly, trusting that it will thaw thanks to the creature’s only slightly warmer core temperature.

In displays, be it for courtship or warning, the ice phoenix will use its stunning, frosted wings and snow-dusted markings to show off. But no feature is used more than its long tail feathers, spotted with bright circles that catch the light even in the midst of a snowstorm. Sometimes, it is these glinting markings that a small prey item sees last before the phoenix descends upon it.
