Community and Production Information
Fuscious Rombler is an example of a phlyer.

Phlyers are a line of plents on which wings, a beak, four legs, stabilizers, and a large muscular torso are normally present. Most plyers have the ability of flight and base their lifestyles around this, though some have taken to living on the ground. This line consists of all descendants of the Phlyer.

Anatomy

Phlyers generally have four legs (usually short and without toes), a beak that extends away from the face, two eyes (one on each side of the head horizontally), two ear drums (placed in the same fashion as its eyes), a pair of large powerful wings and a large torso to house the wing muscles, a single breathing hole that extends away and behind the body to form a sort of tail, and three distinct stabilizers extending out of the tail just before the airhole. Most phlyers act out the majority of their photosynthesis using their wings, the rest of their skin is either lacking of or very low in chlorophyll.

Their internal organs generally are very much like other plents, a sac-like gut where solid matter must enter and exit the mouth, a single tongue (usually short), reproductive organs are accessed through the mouth as well. Air is taken in through the single airhole and enters a single lung where it is then absorbed into the phlyers bloodstream. Phlyers, like most other plents, remove liquid waste from their bodies by releasing it out of their skin in a manner similar to sweating.Like other plents a plyers skeleton is made of wood.

Behavior

Phlyers tend to live in flocks and take care of their young in nests made from dead flora.

Breathing and Blood

Phlyers breath using their single airhole, their blood is green and sap-like.
