[[File:Flying Man M1.png|left|Flying Man's appearance in Mother.]]'''Flying Men''' are a mythical species of birds with distinct human qualities. Flying Men are bipedal creatures that live in groups in different [[Magicant]]s. They are very kind and are always ready to help. [[Ninten]] or [[Ness]] may decide to take a Flying Man with them while in Magicant, where they will help them in battle with enemies. They cannot be taken out of Magicant, however. If a Flying Man happens to fall in battle, a grave will be set up by their home and cannot be revived. In both [[EarthBound]] and {{vg|Mother}}, there are only five Flying Men available.

If a Flying Man happens to fall in battle, a grave will be set up by their home. In Earthbound, their tombstone has different inscriptions for each Flying Man, getting more dismal with each death. The fourth Flying Man warns the player not to 'treat us like trash'. Flying men cannot be revived. In both [[EarthBound]] and {{vg|Mother}}, there are only five Flying Men available. Flying Men are said to represent either Ninten or Ness's courage.
 
==[[Quotes]]==
===Mother===
'To [Ninten's] horror and dismay, the brave soldier Flying Man rests here'
 
===Earthbound===
First Tombstone: 'Ness's Courage is resting here. He fought well and died.'
Second Tombstone: 'Another one of Ness’s courage is resting here. He damaged evil terribly, and finally died.'
Third Tombstone: 'Here he rests… I didn’t have time to have his name chiseled into the tombstone.'
Fourth Tombstone: 'Someone’s tombstone.'
Final Flying Man: 'Of course, we’re your courage. But we warned you not to treat us like trash! Didn’t you get it?! This isn’t courage, it’s desperation. If you don’t understand “courage,” look it up in the dictionary. Okay? My name’s The Final Flying Man.'

*In {{vg|Mother}}, the enemy, [[Groucho]], by saying hello and walking away, can allow a Flying Man to gain experience points. This, however, does nothing, as Flying Man is already at the max level of 99 in Mother. It is the only uncontrollable player character able to visibly gain experience points.
