Description

The hummingbird is a small, winged avian which feeds off of the nectar of various flowers. They appear as any other small bird, except that when in flight, their wings beat so fast that they appear as only a blur to any observer. They are also able to hover in place, and dart from place to place, accelerating to full speed or coming to a complete stop instantly.

Combat

These tiny creatures will run from any human or other large creature as soon as their sensitive senses pick up the intruder. They have no attack forms, and cannot do damage. Their ability to dart about makes them extremely difficult to hit in combat, and their speed allows them to avoid almost any predator.
