Phoenix

The Phoenix is one of the five animals that you can play as. You can chose to be either a Fire Phoenix, or an Ice Phoenix. Phoenixes are the only playable animal in the whole game that can fly, and will have a trail of fire/snow following it. Unlike the other playable animals, once you go to your cave, it will turn into a land that has either a volcano, or glacier (depending on whether you are an Ice Phoenix or Fire Phoenix). Also, if you die, you will be reincarnated from ashes (or snow) and won't have to go back to your cave. But, this only happens once. If you die again, then you have to go back to your cave, like the other animals. This makes phoenixes great starting animals when you get to pick which will be your first animal. Phoenixes can throw fireballs (or snowballs) at their enemy and it will make their enemy stunned for one minute.
