Creatures
cha - Greater Ompard

@Cha

A large grazer, with complex mating rituals using ultraviolet plumage.

The Greater Ompard is one of the first few creatures to evolve on this planet. It gained large throat sacs, to increase its stamina (+1 Movement), and a fermentation stomach to process vegetation (+1 foraging level). It also gained basic ultraviolet vision (+1 stealth), and large plumage (Large size) However, it is close to extinction because of competition over food. It could overcome this by either spreading to more patches or evolving predation.
