There are four varieties of Ziz, the
Waterbirds, Raptors, Songbirds and Pygmies. They all live near the same
peninsula, with Waterbirds found wheeling about the air or swimming though the water
near the cliffs, beaches and small islands dotting the outer edges of the peninsula that they inhabit. There they create homes in caves on the cliffs or stone huts on the beaches and islands. The climate they live in is generally warm to mild year round due
to its low elevation, the climate is much like the Songbird’s forest, though the
cool ocean breeze keeps it from being as warm. Waterbirds form very small and
tight knit communities which are usually family based but are generally aloof to
other ziz, including other Waterbirds, and humans. Because of their size and
strength compared to other Ziz, Waterbirds are also sometimes called ‘Giants’.
