About

The Featherlight is a small, lantern-like fantasy creature native to Aberration. It belongs to the Lantern Bird family and serves as one of several charge-light companions introduced with that DLC, providing illumination in the otherwise dark and hazardous underground biomes.

Admins can spawn one using the entity ID LanternBird_Character_BP_C via SpawnDino or similar admin commands. Because it is tied to the Aberration DLC, it will only appear naturally on that map, though it can be force-spawned on other maps through console commands if needed.

When managing an Aberration server, be aware that Featherlights interact with the charge-light mechanics central to that map's design. Spawning them for players can ease progression in areas where charge-dependent equipment or hazards are present.
