Chicken
Additional content needs to be added.
Chickens are passive animals that can be used by all classes to fall slower or float when picked up.
Behavior
Chickens are usually found in some maps. They often waggle around aimlessly, occasionally flying one tile high around. Chickens are passive animals and do not pose any direct threat to players.
Chickens can also be "purchased" by players. This is done by purchasing an egg at the quarters shop for 30 coins. Provided the egg is not eaten, a chicken will eventually hatch out of the egg.
Use
While chickens aren't exactly feared by players, they are often of use because upon picking up the chicken, the player will slow down falling. This is in particularly useful for knights, because combined with their shield up stance (shield glide), they can cover great distances at high altitude. For maximum effect, it is advised to use catapults to sling knights away from jumping off from a high tower can allow you to travel very far. It is not uncommon to float all the way to the enemy base in smaller maps. Many many centuries ago, when you could hold drills in your inventory and you could shield forever, people used to get slung from a Catapult with a chicken, then drop the chicken, take out their drill and wreak havoc on the flag base. However this is no longer possible now as drills cannot be stashed in the inventory.
Cons
Just like a boulder, teammates and foes can kill your chicken; with teammates its often just an accident. The Chicken is very similar to the Keg Because you cannot hold anything while holding a chicken. It is Possible to do a bomb jump with a chicken, but it is limited to a single. Even a single can be dangerous because the chicken might get killed by the explosion, though it is very unlikely.
