{{Creo}}

Arcus is an [[Air]]-type [[Creo|creo]] that is every tree's best friend.

Some people have tried breeding Arcus as natural pest control, especially in fruit groves and orchards. Arcus is generally receptive to the arrangement. As long as it is fed and its young are provided for, it is happy.

Living near people also keeps Arcus well fed through the cold season, when insects are scarce. Growers do have to be careful, though, not to give it too much of a taste for the fruit it is supposed to be guarding.

== Biology ==
Arcus has a long, delicate beak that makes it an expert at picking pests out of the recesses of a tree's bark.

Arcus cannot fly. Instead its feet carry tiny hooked talons that grip the furrows of a trunk, letting it climb with relative ease and speed.

Arcus is especially good at locating termite nests, which are a guaranteed feast for it and its young. Arcus mothers build their nests at the base of diseased trees, since those make rich feeding grounds. Once the food nearby runs out, they travel up and down the trunks catching food and carrying it back to their young.
