Creature:Maninora

Overview
The Maninora is an omnivorous creature. They are about medium in hieght, able to reach about 5-6 upward standing on the tips of their talons. They have three-pronged claws that are able to hold many kinds of items, but have trouble holding rounded objects. These claws aren't very good at scratching things, however. They have dragon-like wings which allow them to fly great distances. It is assusmed that this creature is a species of dragon, but they are not linked to each other in any way other than looks. Their mouths can make many tones of noises, allowing them to have very complex calls and songs, along with the talent to understand and learn many languages quickly. Their feathered bodies keep them cool in the warm climates of Gyrome, their home planet. A flower grows on top of their head, which aids in charming other creatures and in the mating process. Females usually pick the males with the more impressing flower, depending on the size and vibrance. These flowers do not produce pollen, but have been linked to photosenthesis. If a Maninora spends a lot of time in bright sinlight, the flower will turn a yellow color. If a long time is spent in a cave or in the shade, out of the sun's rays, the flower will turn a purple color. Their ears are acually the rough areas around the flower, and can hear very well, about the same as a human ear.
