Editing Parched peckerel (section)

==Characteristics==
Parched peckerels are tall, flightless [[Bird family|birds]] similar to ostriches or emus with sandy yellowish-orange plumage. Their serpentine features include their heads, with tongues poking out of their mouths like snakes, grey scaled undersides running down their necks, and long thin tails. They have a long, curved white crest protruding from the backs of their heads. The peckerels are very fast, able to enhance their natural agility with magic, and will flee when threatened. They are able to send their opponents to sleep or into a state of confusion with their attacks. The birds' favourite food is [[Duneberry|duneberries]].
