Aviar are a class of bird on First of the Sun native to the Pantheon archipelago.[1] Aviar is a term the Eelakin use for any bird that has magical powers and is capable of sharing those powers with humans.
Source of Powers
These birds have gained magical powers on account of consuming worms native to the islands while very young. In particular, the worms feed off the fruits fallen from the Patji's Fingers that grow next to Patji's Eye.[1] Every Aviar comes to Patji's Eye when they are young to gain their talent. Aviar birds raised outside the Pantheon usually do not develop these unique powers. Sixth of the Dusk raised a non-native bird on the isles, Sak, and found that she also developed powers.
Powers
The power obtained is different for each species of bird. There are Physical, Cognitive, and Spiritual powers.[2] For example, Kokerlii has the Cognitive ability to conceal his mind and those of others around him from beasts that hunt by seeking out minds. Aviar are able to share these powers with humans through a Spiritual Connection similar to the Nahel bond. Their bond is not as powerful as the Nahel bond, but because of that it can be shifted between people at its owner's will.[3] It has been hinted at that there are many other magical properties that were not mentioned. The magical abilities/species of birds has been well documented by the Mainlanders and there has not been a new type of Aviar discovered for over 100 years.[1]
Known Powers
- Streamers are Aviars found on the isles that have the ability to conceal their mind and those of others around them from beasts that hunt by seeking out minds.[1] This is similar to Allomantic copper.[4] This can also block an Awakener's lifesense,[5] and can hide the pulses from nearby Allomancers so they cannot be detected by most Seekers.[6] The Aviar must remain close to others to keep them protected.[1] Streamers are not raised on Patji.
- Some non-native birds raised on the isles can have the Spiritual power to show people places they might die.[1] These warnings manifest as illusions of their dead bodies. The illusions are not highly detailed, and only give vague warnings. This is similar to Allomantic electrum.[4]
Known Aviar
Trivia
- Eating an Aviar would not grant a person their powers.[7]
- A kandra in the form of an Aviar would not be able to gain their powers, even if they ate the worms.[8]
