Forums of the Megaverse®

Think of it as a suggestion. Let's say that you want a character with Looks: Full or Perfect to have a Beak or Talons, All you'd have to do is pick and choose. Although, you MIGHT want to as the person(s) running the game if he/she/they'd allow it. It's up to them to allow it.

Kind of surprised that the Raptors don't automatically get Advanced Vision or the Turkey Vulture Advanced Smell.

A thing that has always irked me about AtB2 birds is all of the different flight options available to a species that shouldn't be. I think the type of flight should be limited to the basic structure/physiology of the original bird. But that is a call PB made when designing the game.

Silent Flight - Only available to Owls for the special type of feather they have on the leading edge of their wings.
Soaring Flight - Only available to birds that actually utilize that method or have the wing structure for it. Condors, buzzards, eagles, sea birds, etc.
Raptor flight - Well that's easy enough it's right there in the name.
Acrobatic flight - Smaller birds that don't have the wing structure to allow them to soar.
Basic flight/Glide - everyone can have that.

Here's the first of two new mutants:

Bird (Bird of Prey): Bald Eagle
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: With it's white head and tail, the Bald Eagle, although being an opportunist, has a tendancy to scavenge on Carrion. It also tends to steal prey from other species of predatory Birds, such as Ospreys. It was nearing extinction for a long time, which was due to the usage of DDT which had caused reproductive failure. It was declared Endangered in 1967, its population has since rebounded. The Bald Eagle was selected, by an act from the American Congress in 1782, to be the NationalEmbel of the US.
The Bald Eagle is widespread across Canada and much of the US. It breeds in forested areas near water and shoreline areas, which range from undeveloped to relatively well-developed with marked Human activity. It Winters along major river systems, along with in Coastal areas and even occasionally in arid regions located in the Southwestern US.
The Bald Eagle creates a huge nest made out of sticks that are located in the tallest of Trees. The Females lay from 1 to 3 Eggs during the months of March to September.

Bird (Bird of Prey): Osprey
Original Animal Characteristics:
Description: The Osprey is sometimes refered to as the "Fish Hawk" or the "Fish Eagle", and is the only Bird of Prey species that feeds almost exclusivly on live Fish. Some Osprey Populations declined during the years between the 1950's and the 1980's, which was due to the usageof dangerous Pesticides. However, along with the ban on the use of these chemicles, alongside theusage of artificial nest sights and a tolerance of nearby had allowed the Osprey to return to its former numbers. The Osprey just so haqppens to be the Provincial Bird of the Canadian Province of Nova Scotis.
Once a Fish is caught, it is held with it's head pointing forward. This is done so as to reduce the drag as the Osprey is fliying.
The Osprey tends to breed in a variety of Habitats. These Habitats consist of Northern Forests that are located near shallow Reserviors, along Freshwater Rivers, and large Lakes, Estuaries and Salt Marshes, Coastal Deserts, and Desert Saltflat Lagoons.

Thanks for the fishhawks...I see bald eagles with increasing frequency along the Connecticut River, and the ospreys along Cape Cod(one couple even nests on top of a piling right next to the busy Steamship Authority slip in Woods Hole).
Seeing the birds of prey return in numbers, when as a child I hardly remember seeing them at all?
We must be doing something right.

No problem.

I realise that I haven't posted in awhile, and I'm sorry for that. So, I'll post some stuff now. Here's the first (1st):

Bird (Bird of Prey): Broad-Winged Hawk
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Broad-Winged Hawk is one (1) of the most numerous North American Bird of Prey species. They tend tio migrate in huge Flocks, or "Kettles", with Thousands of members of the species gliding on rising thermals. Some Bird members tend to Winter in Florida, but the majority average about 70 Miles (or 110 Kilometers) a day to log more than 4,000 Miles (or 6,500 Kilometers) before ending in the South American countries of Brazil, Bolivia, and even some ofthe Caribbean Islands. When compared to it's two (2) cousins, the Red-SHouldered and Red-Tailed Hawks, the Broad-Winged Hawk is slitghtlky smaller, but stockier in fram/body. The Adult members are easiky identified by a white-and-black band on their tails. The Broad-Winged Hawks have two (2) colour forms, the light coloured one (1) being more common than the dark, sooty brown one (1)
The Broad-Winged Hawk tends to breed across Canada (with the exception of the Rocky Mountains) and in the Eastern portions of the US (albeit not West of the 100th Meridian), and are mostly in Forested areas with Dicidous, Conifers and Mixed Trees, usually with clearings and water nearby. Concentrations of these Avian migrants can be seen at bottlenecks, such as the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and Panama.
The nests of the Broad-Wined Hawksconsists of a platform made out of freash twigs or dead sticks, often on/in old Squirrel, Hawk or Crow Nests in trees. They lay between 2 to 3 Eggs between the months of April to August.
Size Level: 3.
Length: 13 to 17 Inches (33 to 43 Cm.).

The Cooper's Hawk tend to breed in woodland area's across Northern North America, Southern Canada, and Northern U.S., all the way South to Florida, Texas, and Northwestern Mexico. The species like mature Deciduous Forests with leaf cover, and also roosts in Conifers. The Bird species tends to Winter in the Southwestern portions of the US and Mexico.

In Latin it's name is Regalis, which means Kingly, while it's Emglish name refers to it's Rusty colouration. It's also a versatile Nester, building it's stick nests on cliffs or nearly level ground trees, along with man-made structures, such as Farm Buildings. Regrettably, it's preferred food, the Prairie Dog, are declining because of habitat loss, shooting, and pesticide use, which in turn is threatening the Ferruginous Hawk Population. Also, the Bird of Prey hunts from a perch such as a rock or branch.
In Western North America, the Ferruyginous Hawk tends to breed in low-elevation grasslands that are interrupted by cliffs or isolated trees for nesting; but Winters across SouthWestern Portions of the U.S. and Mexico in open Terrain that ranges from Grasslands to Desert.
They create large nests made out of sticks from old Sagebrush stems, sticks and various debris and is lined with strips of Bark. They tend to lay between 2 to 4 Eggs between the months of March and August.

Bird (Bird of Prey): Northern Goshawk
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Northern Goshawk is both powerful and agile, albeit secretive by nature and not easily observed. That is also including regions where it's commonly located at. It has few natural enimies, but is known to defend its territories, nests and young fiercely. This is done repeatedly by diving and screaming at intruders that get too close. Spring hikers and Turkey hunters occasionally discover Northern Goshawks by wandering into their territory and being driven off by the angry Avian occupants.
The Northern Goshawk tends to breed in deep Deciduous, Conifer and mixed Woodlands that are located in the Northern poirtions of North America, from the Tundra-Taiga border and as far South as California, Northern Mexico, and Pennsylvania, in the Eastern portion of the US. It is absent from the East Central portion of the US. The Northern Goshawk is also widepread throughout Northern Eurasia.
They tend to nest in large stick structures that is lined with bark and plant matter,which is located in the Mid- to Lower region of the tree. The Northern Goshawk tends to lay between 1 to 3 Eggs, during the months of May to June.

Bird (Bird of Prey): Northern Harrier
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: Found nearly alll over North America, the Northern Harrier is most often seen flying buoyantly low in search of food. A white rump, V-shaped wings and a tilting flight make this species easily identifiable from other Birds of Prey. The blue-gray plummage of the males are quite different when compared to the dark-brown plummage of the females. The most recogniable characteristic that distinguishes the Northern Harier from others is its Owl-like face, which contains stiff feathers to help channel in sound from Prey. The Northern Harier is known to be highly migratory throughout their range.
In order to avoid predation from larger predators, the Northern Harrier tend to prefer to raise their young on wet sites that are located in tall, dense vegitation.
he Northern Harrier breeds in a wide variety of wetlands, marshes, meadows, pastures, fallow fields that are located across North America. They tend to Winter in open habitats, such as deserts, coastal sand dunes, cropland, grasslands, along with marshy and riverside areas.

Description: The Red-Shouldered Hawk has a remarkable distribution, with widespread populations that are located in the East and NorthEast, and in the Midwet Great Plains, along with in the West. They're located from Oregon to Baja California, despite a geographical gap of 1,000 Miles (or 1,600 Kilometers) between the two (2) regions. The Eastern Birds are devided into four (4) subspecies of Red-Shouldered Hawk; while the Western populations tend to belong to the subspecies known as B. I. Elegans. The red shoulder patches are not always evident, but the stripped Tails and translucent "Windows" in the Wings are easily identifiable.
The Eastern populations of the Red-Shouldered Hawk tend to breed in woodlands and forests, which are mostly consisting of Deciduous or Mixed, whereas those located in the West occur in Oak Woodlands and Eucalyptus groves. In Florida, the species also live in Mangroves. The Eastern Birds tend to migrate to Mexico.

Bird (Bird of Prey): Red-Tailed Hawk
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Red-TailedHawk is the most widely distributed and and commonly seen species of Hawk in North America. There are as many as 15 Subspecies of Red-Tailed Hawk that have been discribed to date. These Subspecies tend to vary in colouration, tail markings, and size. The very dark Harlen's Hawk, which breeds in Alaska and the NorthWestern Portion of Canada, is so distinctive from the normal Red-Tailed Hawk that it was at one (1) time thought of as a seperate species from the rest of the family, but recent research suggests otherwise. While it occasionally stoops on prey, the Red-Tailed Hawk usually adopts a sit-and-wait approach.
The various subspeciesof Red-Tailed Hawk tend to forage in open areas and in a wide range of habitats and altitudes, varying from Scrub Deserts, Grasslands, Agricultural Fields and Pastures to Coniferous and Decidous Woodlands and Tropical Rainforests. They species as a whole tend to prefer areas with tall perch sites and can be found in Suburban Woodlots.
The Nests of the Red-Tailed Hawk tends to consist of a large platform of sticks with twigs on top of a tall Tree, Cliff, Building, Ledge or Billboard. They ley two (2) Eggs from between February to September.

Bird (Bird of Prey): Sharp-Shinned Hawk
Original Animal Characterististics:
Description: The Sharp-Shinned Hawk is a species that is small and swift, and is quite adept at capturing Birds, occasionally even taking on species that are larger than itself. The Sharp-Shinned Hawk's short, rounded winds and long tail allow it tommake abrupt turns and lightning-fast dashes in thick woods and dense, shrubby terrain. Armed with needle-like Talons, spindle-thin legs, and long, thin toes, all of which is due to Evolution, makes this species of Hawk well adapted for snatching Birds in flight. It's prey is plucked before being consumed, or fed to its Nestling.
The Sharp-Shinned Hawks occur/live in deep Coniferous forests and mixed Hardwood-Conifer Woodlands that arelocated across North America. This ranges from the tree limit in Northern Canada to the Gulf States of the U.S. During the Autumn/Fall migration, they are sometimes seen in flocks of hundreds of individuals. As a species, they Winter in Central America, ranging from Guatemala to Panama.
They tend to nest in nests that are sturdy in nature, andare made out of stick lined with twigs or pieces of bark. They sometimes use old Crow or Squirrel nests, and lay between 3 and 4 Eggs. This nesting period is between the months of March and June.

Rathorc, for your inspiration, take a look at these, especially their hunting behaviours:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harris's_hawk

Somewhere I have a word document that has (most) all of the animals, including illustrations, posted to this thread. It's at least 200 pages long and still far from complete. With changes to the formatting to make it look the way it would be printed in on of PB's books I worn out editing it. As it stands I have an entire folder in my email dedicated to "Rathorc Mutants Not Added Yet."

I appreciate the work you do

At the beginning of this most recent batch, you have the first one posted twice. Just thought you should be aware of it.

@Nate: Thanks??
@Stone Gargoyle: Sorry about that. I did it just for the heck of it, if you're talking about the number in brackets.

You're welcome. My post was supposed to convey the idea that someone out there appreciates what you post and is trying to preserve it. I was trying to say that it matters, and isn't just getting lost in the ether of cyberspace.

Ah.

No, I'm talking about a double post. You posted the Broad-Winged Hawk twice by accident.

You ever get that thing set up as a PDF, you let me know. THat's one electronic volume I'd want to get. The animal pictures alone, given Rathorc's wide spread of animals.

Well, I just finished doing up some new stats for a new mutant Bird of Prey and decided to post or. So, here it is:

Even though it APPEARS sluggish, it is amazingly both Swift and Agile, allowing it to employ a variety of hunting technigues allowing it to catch specific Prey. It was shot and poisoned by both Ranchers and Trappers, it is also faced with dwindling habitat and food sources due to Human development in or near its natural habitats.
The Golden Eagle symbolizes all Birds of Prey with it's sharp Talons, Hooked Bill/Beak and large size. In North America, it occures mostly in Grasslands, Wetlands and rocky areas.
