==Also Called==
*pique-au-mollet
*quiperlibresson
*cacalambri
==Capabilities==
Users of this power can take on the powers of the Picolaton or are a member of this species, they are imagined as birds that will pursue children who have misbehaved and proceed to inflict injury upon the child via pecking at their heels or buttocks, often they would specifically go after lazy children and thus the pecking was designed to force their victim into working.
Picolaton also had a more malicious side, reserved for the most irritable of children, who could be taken to their nests, these nests were believed to be made within thorn bushes.
==Applications==
*Avian Physiology
*Size Manipulation
*Powerful Bite
*Capture System
==Variations==
*Thorn Manipulation
*Morality Manipulation; most bogeyman figures have a supernatural ability to track down those who have behaved poorly.
==Limitations==
*Despite their fearsome reputation and magical powers they are still mortal, thus could be killed by experienced hunters or warriors.
*Like most bogeyman figures they tend to target the young and thus adults could overpower or outsmart them.
*Tend to be non-lethal (with some exceptions), thus usually not aiming to kill a target (rather just scare or inflict minor injury).
*Like many bogeyman figures they can only attack children who have behaved poorly (either by choice or some supernatural law).
