Lore

Harpy rocs were falcons given greater size by Aquillus: Archon of Rulers on High as well as the ability to proclaim the words of the king across the land. Karassa twisted their voices from elegant repetition to painful, destructive shrieks. They use these sonic attacks to hunt down prey from the safety of the skies, as well as to battle each other.
Harpy rocs are frequently found near High City of Kingsreach, ferrying people about. They are challenging to tame, but it can be done.
