Chalkydris spend most of their time on the Ethereal or Astral Plane or on one of the many Elemental Planes, usually acting on behalf of some deity of good. Chalkydris are militaristic and often lead small retinues of other celestials against the infernal armies. When not serving in such roles, they are found acting as protectors or escorts to visitors on the good-aligned planes. Sometimes, a chalkydri is sent to the Material Plane by its deity to watch over a favored worshipper. When traveling the Material Plane, the chalkydri often takes a form more acceptable to humanoids.
Chalkydris appear as powerful, agile humans 6 to 7 feet tall with coppery skin, red or blonde hair, and copper-colored eyes. Two sets of large feathery wings (four wings total) protrude from their back at shoulder level. Their wings are glossy white with copper tips. Chalkydris wear tunics or robes of varying colors, usually crimson, copper, green, silver, or gold.
Chalkydris enjoy combat and one is never without its +2 flaming longsword and at least two +2 flaming javelins. A chalkydri opens combat by hurling one of its javelins at a foe before moving into melee to battle with its longsword. While in combat, it utilizes its spell-like abilities to their fullest extent. If a chalkydri is overwhelmed in battle, it summons celestials to its aid or uses its plane shift ability to escape. If slain, the chalkydri's weapons explode in a blinding flash of fire.
