Glass phoenixes are beautiful creatures popular with bird keepers in the Keep and Synara City alike. They are warm to the touch and can willingly heat any of their body so hot that it melts, a useful trick for fending off potential threats. One difficulty in keeping glass phoenixes is that they seem to have few social instincts, and see each other as nothing but new sources of glass. These phoenixes will fight to the death and consume one another if kept together, so most households will only have one glass phoenix at a time. Unlike some other manufactured creatures, which lose their lives as the enchantments which bring them to life wear off, glass phoenixes remain alive as long as the flame burning within their strengthened chest remains alight. Legend claims that the breast plate is harder that the strongest steel, and even dragon scales, but that all glass phoenixes have a single feather hidden somewhere on their bodies which, if broken, will shatter them into a million pieces. Of course, if all of these pieces are recovered and melted, a new phoenix can be forged.

:well:

Damn, it looks amazing!

Wow, these are quite impressive, though that glass cannibalism thing is kinda creepy.
Though that's what makes MS lore so good, every creature has it's quirks and there are basically zero hyper idealised and 100% perfect critters.

I will probably be collecting these guys as often as I can, they have very nice artwork.

Veeeeeeeeeery pretty as expected, great great phoenix
If I wasn't spending all my money on Nikollus I'd surely be buying more of them but nope, I'll have to do with 2 birds for now~
This Signature looks so bad on mobile. Good lord it is HUGE. I'll need to work on that at some point. For now though I sleep

Platyplushes are artificial creatures made of cloth and leather and stuffed with small beans or seeds, but despite their soft makeup, they can withstand quite a beating.
So, what you're telling me...it's a Beanie Baby?
