So here's a question. Do avali have mounts? Do they domesticate animals at all, or rely solely on hunting for their meat?
I'm imagining an avali mounted atop a giant chocobo-like creature.
Addendum: Given that the Avali's primary sense is hearing, and that their ears basically shut down when exposed to loud noises to avoid damage, would a device that emits a continuous loud tone essentially render them "blind" until someone switches it off? Or am I misunderstanding the effect of "relaxing the inner ear?"
I can see this being used against them in infantry combat by races with a narrower hearing range... human or apex soldiers running a noise generator that is deafening/blinding to Avali but outside their own frequency range. I assume the solution for this would be for Avali infantry to have enclosed helmets with additional sensors that can compensate and shut out the interference.
