The Alicanto is a mythical bird from Chilean folklore, known for feeding on precious metals like gold and silver. It has metallic shimmering feathers that glow, with the the color matching the metal is consumes.

In south american folklore tales the bird was often spoken of as a warning. The bird will trick you and makes you blind by greed. Leads you into dark tunnels and gets you lost or leading you to dangerous places and make you fall of a cliff.
