The Avali are a sentient, bipedal and avian-like species. Their culture is nomadic, forming packs that then create tribes with mutual purposes and goals. They offer advanced technology given to them by a race with almost human-like qualities that they refer to as the benefactors.

Avali are not mammals, but instead more similar to prehistoric Earth dromaeosauridae. Avali blood is pale violet in color, a tint evident in their open mouths, bare skin, and other soft tissues. Male and females are most easily told apart by their feathers, as there are no other external differences. Females tend to have muted, two-tone feathers, often with speckled patterns, while males have brightly coloured, iridescent bands across much of their body.

The Avali are superficially similar to dromaeosauridae of ancient Terra. A typical adult Avali stands around 1-1.2 meters tall, and laid out, 1.5 to 1.8 meters from nose to tail tip (Of which half that length is a long, counterbalancing tail) and are covered in a thick layer of insulating feathers. Avali are often only able to make controlled glides and break falls on their own, and cannot truly fly unaided.
