Quote: This enemy can be fought solo! A lone bird spots you and glides in to attack. As you get close to it, you notice that while it's the size and rough shape of an eagle, it's not at all natural: its beak is made of bronze and its feathers are metallic and razor sharp. It attacks by launching feathers at you, or flinging its poisonous dung. Hit points: 25 Damage: 5 each time attacked If you successfully kill this bird, each party involved in the battle gets 10XP and rolls 1d100 to collect loot according to the following: 1-80: You gain nothing but the victory of having beaten this opponent. 81-90: Poisonous Dung: You manage to collect a vial of the vile stuff. It can thrown at an opponent once to poison them, dealing 1 damage for 3 turns. After this it is consumed and leaves your inventory forever. 91-99: Heart's Blood: You manage to collect a vial of the creature's blood. It can be used once to replenish 3 HP, at which point it is consumed and leaves your inventory forever. 100: Metal Feather: Once per battle, you can backstab with this small dagger. Add 2 to your final damage. This item is reusable, and remains in your inventory.

Rory had her shield arm relaxed as she made her way toward the hotel. She had finally gotten out of that swarm and was trying to slog through the calf high snow. Oh, and not meeting one of those birds on the way would be nice, too. She felt like she needed a break. Except her luck was not going to hold. Glinting in the sun as it spiraled toward her was one of those birds. And it looked like a big one. Rory tightened her hold on her shield and braced her weight, waiting for it to come close enough. When it did start its dive, she waited until the last possible second before smashing her shield into it and knocking it off course. The impact jarred her arm and made it ache. Just perfect. She hoped this thing went down fast.

She smirked to herself a bit as she removed her shield to shake her arm out; the bird had made a hole in the snow. It wasn't done with her, though. She watched it struggle out of the hole to fly at her again. With no time to replace her shield, she used her left hand to grip a strap of the shield and made an upward slicing motion to knock it off course. The bird wobbled, but her attack didn't affect it much as it made more slices in her coat. Dang. She hoped the people at the Prytaneum didn't expect these things back in mint condition. She was pretty sure no one was going to accomplish that. And if they did, they were magic. She snickered at her own joke, sad no one was around to share her humor.

This time when the bird thing came for her, she was ready for it. She had replaced her shield on her stronger arm and watched the thing fly to her. When it got close, she twisted her right side back before swinging it at the monster thing. Rory felt elated as it squawked and flailed sideways, landing in the snow again. She laughed and did a little dance in the cold white stuff. Even the fact that her jeans were soaked through did nothing to dampen her good mood now.

Taking her eye off this bird for even a second was clearly not a good idea. It came back at her and she let out a squeal of pained surprise. More scratches. This time on her face! Ugh!. She smacked at it with her shield and tried to get away. She was sure it looked like she was prancing away, like someone tried to put ice down the back of her shirt. Though really, if someone tried that on her about now, she would probably smack them with her shield, too. She looked at it, not daring to take her eyes off it now. It seemed to be getting tired now. Maybe she almost had it beat. That thought steeled her for the creature's next attack.

With a new burst of energy, this bird was no match for Rory. Grabbing her shield by the edge, she gave a yell as she made a downward arc and slammed it into the bird and down into the snow. Carefully, she lifted her shield up and peeked. When it twitched, she jerked back a bit, but it didn't seem to be up for another attack. "That's right. Can't take me down, you little bugger," she snickered at it.

She stayed there, looking at the bird for a moment before trying to take one of the feathers. Unfortunately, the creature gave a final twitch before dying and the metal feathers sliced her fingers instead, "Ow. Jerk," she grumped and stuck her fingers in her mouth.
