The swox majora is an exotic variant of the common swox moth that grows several magnitudes larger than their minora cousins. Swox majora have unwieldy, feathery wings that are heavy with the pearlescent pigments they use to attact mates. Any time the air gets too moist, swox majora are forced to lie out and sunbathe until their wings are dry enough to fly. As such, they prefer the drier climates atop mountains and largely keep to themselves, although they've evolved a wide array of defence mechanisms that have proved useful against most predators.
