Rokh

A huge bird of purple plumage, with sharp talons and a long tail. Once it has targeted a victim, it plummets out of the sky and strikes where its prey is weakest, using its vicious talons. It wraps its prize up within its tail feathers to carry it back to its nest. Its strength in flight is formidable; some even claim to have seen it carry off full-grown men. There was a time when this creature was so rarely seen that it was thought to be a myth, but the species has been growing steadily in number and specimens have even been spotted around human settlements in recent years.
