Firebird
From ErfWiki
[edit] Proposed Canon
Firebirds are bird flying units, like orlies and thunderbirds.
Like a phoenix, a firebird is a bird that is perpetually on fire, providing it with a natural attack and defense superior to that of more mundane fowl.

[edit] Real World References
Firebird was an automobile released by Pontiac between 1967 and 2002.
It was also the original name of Mozilla FireFox web-browser, the twin of the ThunderBird e-mail and news client.
The Firebird appears in real world Russian folk tales where it is often the object of a difficult quest, fitting in with Ceasar Borgata's difficult quest to take back the city of Chocula from Carpool. The same mythical bird is also the subject of a Stravinsky ballet.
Being 'birds' they fit the theme of Transylvito units being slang terms for women (along with Goyles, Dolls, and Molls.)
