Description A man-hunting bird from Greek Mythology. They were said to shoot their razor-shaprp featers as arrows. instead of making it covered in knifee-like feathers I gave it specialised type of attow like quills that could serve this purpose


Defeaing them was one of Hercules' labours. Argonauts were also said to meet with them.

I used to draw plenty of mythological creatures when I was a kid, particularly Greek ones.
I like how the wings are made to resemble both metallic scales and arrows, good job

I didn't play it. Is it good? screenshots look interesting.

I wish I made artwork for  a game one day but that's just part of my Myhtical series.

Birds using missiles I imagine would be highly dangerous.

Did he shoot them? I heard of eagles lifting turtles and then dropping them from high altitudes, but what if they dropped one on a rabbit or something. Dinner for two.

Yep, Hercules' signature weapon (apart from his club) were  hydra-poisoned arrows.
