Description

A flying furry batlike creature with a beak like a terror bird,  and scaly almost talon like claws on the tips of its large wings and at the end of two bent legs.

During the night, These strange creatures usually feed on fish that can be found in nearby water sources such as ponds or lakes. It is known that they also can congregate in locations that have seen mass bloodshed and reportedly scavenge the corpses.

These creatures have only been seen a handful of times, and the common belief is that they're not native to the sword coast region.

Lair and Lair Actions

Dark dank caves with stalagmites above bodies of water. These lairs are often naturally formed caves, or large wells that drilled into a cave.
