Fire balls are [[Machine family|mechanical]] birds with spherical bodies made of gold, along with golden heads and wings, red head and tail "feathers", and copper-coloured articulated feet. Like the other robotic avians, fire balls are capable of converting their wings into deadly sharp blades and can also shoot out their feathers as if they are darts.
