Silver Alicanto

Coming soon

Alicantos are plain sparrow-like finches with a covering of metals, with metallic scales and feathers in the entire body and eye color. Silver Alicanto is purely silver; their beak is the same as that of a woodpecker; and they are white-covered bioluminescent.

Due to its phosphorescence, an alicanto does not cast a shadow. Silver Alicanto shoots silver sparks sundered in that saliva and also flashes their own body with metallic feathers, causing blindness.

Only a small number of birds, known as alicantos, eat ores, metals, and foils made of copper, silver, or gold that, when digested, harm the immune system and lead to illness. Unknown metal-eating bacteria in their stomachs aided their digestive system and helped them expel the poison.

The Alicanto consumes too much metal, turning metallic and glossy and becoming more temperate than males, depending on its breed and the elements that are present. The body's vitality, connective tissues, and blood vessels weaken if the Alicanto consumes the incorrect metal, such as gold, copper, or silver, and it vomits.

Alicantos are too weighed down by the silver they consume to be able to fly. Instead, they take off while spreading their wings. Alicantos can move swiftly when they are hungry, but they can hardly move at all when they are full. Inside Alicanto's chest are specific organs utilized for controlling its body temperature. This is what Alicanto eats. When it digests it into its unique organ, this body will quickly begin to heat up.

Silver alicantos produce a powerful magnetic force that attracts metals and minerals to themselves. The shell particles on the feathers are silver or gold, depending on what the bird eats. It's also unknown if it has any predators. Due to the fact that silver may be found in both ionic and non-ionic forms, unlike gold, Silver Alicanto is immune to silver intoxication. Since it is inert and cannot be absorbed by the body, the non-ionic form is safe. However, silver in its ionic state can be consumed by the body and may have negative effects.

Alicantos are timid and docile creatures when a miner wants to share with Alicanto a metal as permission, or if they don't, can flash themselves to lead their pursuers to a cliff to death, as well as a kind of death bait.

Alicantos are found in Chile as an endemic species according to Mapuches.

Feeding Silver Alicanto with silver flakes and silver-relate food like vark. However, there are no nutritional or health benefits associated with its consumption for humans, but some creatures can.

Silver and Copper Alicantos were produced as part of Project Pashneia, a scientific endeavor by the Terran branch of Deities to create any creatures—animals, monsters, or humans—in terms of their own.
