Axe Beak

cool

8 axebeaks, 2 spider kings. Ultimate horde.

I have a kenku that rides an axe beak because they're both flightless birds

Our DM just created a scenario with constructs made of wood, like a sort of living marionette. So our druid summoned 8 axe beaks and just CHOPPED EM TO BITS. End of issue. 

A better horse

horses are faster and stronger while these are more hearty and defensive. more of a sidegrade in terms of raw mechanics 

I played an artificer and fitted my Axebeak mount with a attachable blade to its beak, I also armored the creature, in the end I had a creature with an AC of 18 (Crafted Plate barding) and could deal a impressive 2d8 + 2 slashing damage,  I later added mithril spikes (so it wouldn't incumber the Axebeak) to deal an extra 1d4 piecing damage to any creature that attacked it within melee range. It ended looking more like a small siege weapon than an animal by the end of the campaign and its kill count was about the same as mine. many a enemy fell to the fearsome armored beast known only as "Private" 

Can these be bought in the starting equipment of a character, because if so, my mountain dwarf fighter just doubled there speed 

Why am I reminded of Bladebeak from "Quest for Camelot"?

If the old ancient video game "Joust" used Axe Beaks, every hit would be a tie.

Quote from Behler >>

Maul Beaks are a bit more hardy

 I personally prefer Flailbeaks and Crossbowbeaks.

 
My favorites are Lancebeaks, Staffbeaks and Handcrossbowbeaks.

Could two axe beaks attached to a chariot be able to carry a loxodon without breaking some bones? 

Beware the mighty Great Axe Beak

Look up ostriches, add os subtrack some time for magics sake and tadaaa

A mount can also dash or disengage (or dodge I think?) using its own action per the rules. So you can x4 your speed.
