Yélgri - the Hârnic Harpy
Below are some of the customized Monster Stat Blocks I use on Roll20 VTT.
These are guidelines only. Named or important monsters are regularly individualized.
Yélgri are also called the Hârnic Harpy. They are small, highly aggressive, and violent quasi-reptilian, warm-blooded winged predators and scavengers. They usually avoid attacking larger creatures capable of defending themselves, instead preferring to harass them. They are known to kill for amusement and will ferociously defend their nests.
They use simple tools and weapons such as clubs, barbed javelins, nets, rocks, and even bombs made of their dung. They communicate among themselves using a primitive language made up of barks, screams, and grunts. Some travelers have reported hearing Yélgri flocks singing harmoniously.
Yélgri are usually encountered in family flocks of up to a dozen led by the alpha male and female. Larger flocks have been occasionally observed with one colony in the Hefiosa Hills reported to number over fifty. Yélgri eggs are small and leathery and cared for by the entire family flock. They reach maturity after around two years and may live for as much as twenty.
The only natural enemies of the Yelgri are the Orcs, who have a fondness for Yelgri flesh and eggs. Yélgri will hunt Orcs when they see an opportunity and are one of the few creatures willing to eat foulspawn flesh.
