The Moa is a large bird native to the Aether that can be tamed and raised as a rideable mount, gliding great distances with a limited number of mid-air jumps.
Behavior
Moas are passive and will not attack players. They roam the surface in small herds and flee when hurt. A Moa can be tamed by feeding it, after which it can be saddled and ridden. While mounted, a Moa can perform a set number of aerial jumps before it must land and recover, letting riders glide across the floating islands.
Moas come in three tiers, with higher tiers being sturdier, faster, and capable of more jumps. Their tier is represented by how elaborate their patter is on their skin.
Spawning
Moas spawn naturally on the surface in herds in several Aether biomes:
Lush Forest
Cliffs
Plains
Breeding
Moas are bred and tamed using the Golden Egg. Offspring hatch as baby Moas that inherit their parents' color and tier, and can be sped to adulthood with more Golden Eggs.
