Call

Avichaeas are primitive, high-strung creatures. Definitely more inclined towards 'flight' than 'fight'.

—Son

Avichaeas are Infested avian creatures that are native to the Cambion Drift on Deimos. They can be found in groups of three in the wild or tracked down as a Conservation activity. There are currently 3 subspecies of Avichaeas.

General

Avichaeas are primitive and skittish creatures that look like something out of a different geological era. They are more likely to flee when confronted. Despite their anxious nature, Avichaeas are curious creatures, and will investigate any nearby call.

They are known to cling to walls of Deimos' unique environment, and can be found easily by merely looking up.

Subspecies

• Common Avichaea
• Sporule Avichaea
• Viscid Avichaea
