Mascots
The Krizaka flock: seven birds (falcon, owl, duck, flamingo, pigeon, lovebird, crane) in five moods, drawn in the product's brand colours — and the phoenix, the comeback.
Web and mobile — the same component for React and React Native. Beta: its API may still change in a minor version.

When to use
- To welcome a person on a first screen or an onboarding step (
welcome). - While a long task runs and the person waits for it (
thinking), beside its progress. - When a long task has just finished well (
success): a generation, an import, a verification. - In an empty state the person reaches for the first time (
empty), above its title. - On a full-page or panel error, beside what went wrong and what to do (
error).

Props
Mascot
One of the seven Krizaka birds in one mood — for the moments a product speaks to a person: a welcome, a long wait,
a success, an empty list, an error. Drawn in the host's brand colours by default (tone="own" for the story's).
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
animated | boolean | true | A light idle motion and the mood's gesture. Off with false; always off under prefers-reduced-motion. |
bird | "falcon" | "owl" | "duck" | "flamingo" | "pigeon" | "lovebird" | "crane" | owl | Which bird of the flock: falcon (watch, security), owl (reading, documents), duck (building, code), flamingo (answers, support), pigeon (delivery, notifications), lovebird (introductions, two people who meet), crane (listening, a calm moment). |
mood | "success" | "error" | "empty" | "welcome" | "thinking" | welcome | What the moment is: welcome (onboarding), thinking (a long task running), success (it is done), empty (nothing here yet), error (it failed). |
size | number | 96 | Width and height in pixels. |
title | string | — | An accessible name (the bird becomes an image); without it the mascot is decorative. |
tone | MascotTone | brand | brand (default): the host's accent, so the bird wears the product it is in. own: the bird's signature colours of the Krizaka story. |
Phoenix
The phoenix: the comeback, beside the five birds of the flock (Mascot). Decorative unless titled.
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
animated | boolean | true | A slow float and a breathing core. Off with false; always off under prefers-reduced-motion. |
size | number | 120 | Width and height in pixels. |
title | string | — | An accessible name (the phoenix becomes an image); without it, it is decorative. |
tone | "brand" | "own" | own | own (default): the violet wing and the gold wing of the Krizaka story. brand: the host's accent and accent-2. |
Accessibility
- Decorative by default (
aria-hidden): the text next to it carries the meaning. Withtitleit becomes an image with that name. - Every gesture (idle bob, blink, wave, dots, hop) stops under
prefers-reduced-motion, and withanimated={false}. - The success and error badges are not the only signal: say it in words beside the bird.
Best practices
- One mascot per screen, and only at a moment that matters: a welcome, a wait, a success, an empty list, an error.
- Keep the bird's role: the owl reads (documents), the falcon watches (security), the duck builds (code), the flamingo answers (support), the pigeon delivers (notifications, packages), the lovebird introduces (matches, two people who meet), the crane listens (a quiet moment, someone who takes their time).
- The phoenix (
Phoenix) does no job: keep it for a comeback — a relaunch, a recovered account, a second chance — never as one more helper. - Leave
tone="brand"in a product: the bird wears the product's accent;ownis for the Krizaka story. - The words stay beside it (a title, a line, an action): the mascot never carries the message alone.
