M’qwirl (meh-kwirr-ul) are unique in that they are not individual organisms—each is a symbiotic pairing of an avian and simian species. One half of a m’qwirl is a raptor-like bird (known as a m’ka), often ridden by the other half (known as a qwirl), which is akin to a spider monkey.

Each m’qwirl pairing shares a telepathic link that unifies their mind-states, enabling them to act in unison, as one. These duos are established at a young age and typically last a lifetime. In social situations (and for rules purposes), they are treated as a single entity.

Both m’qwirl halves may communicate, but they speak as one and refer to themselves in the singular. It is not uncommon for one part of the pair to become the “speaker” of the bonding, but sometimes they simply alternate or each half takes point during different emotional states.
