Astrid

Overview
Astrids are large avian creatures that were created by Nikson in the course of fire. They were made with the sole intention of wreaking havoc and sewing chaos.

Appearance
Astrids are similar to phoenixes in appearance. They are constantly on fire, and have a total wingspan of about 22 ft. In what is believed to be an attempt to ambush their victims, they have been known the encase themselves in stone like a statue. While difficult, it is possible to put out the inferno that they produce. Upon doing so, they have a blackish-red skin tone with blue highlights. They have varying eye color, which is often dependent on the type of Astrid.

Abilities
There are three different types of Astrids. Powers and abilities vary between types.

Pyrotechnic
The Pyrotechnic version of the classic Astrid is not that different from the standard. They are highly resistant to fire based attacks, and create a large explosion upon death with the power of 5 megatons of TNT.

Electro
The Electro Astrid is shockingly powerful. It is resistant to electricity and shocks, and will often strike its targets with lightning. Upon death, it creates a storm in an attempt to kill its attacker.

Poison
The Poisonous version of the Astrid is known for emitting a substance similar to Tear Gas. If you're unlucky enough to get bitten, it will inject a large dose of Tetrodotoxin. When killed, it will explode into a cloud of Ricin.

Taming
While extremely rare, some individuals have managed to tame an Astrid. They seem to have an affinity for causing destruction, so some people have purposely let it wreak havoc on their belongings. Those who have tamed them said they are quite caring and compassionate once pacified.
