Description CLASS: Devil Bird

Most feared of the seven basic devil birds, the Wrath emits telepathic waves from its tiny brain that infect nearby sentients with an ever-growing lust for violence. Those killed by the victims of this force become nourishment for the devil bird itself, their fear and anger absorbed as psychic "food" for the insidious monster. Strangely enough, the bird of Wrath itself is an inquisitive and playful creature, oblivious to the suffering it causes all around it.

The Wrath moves with a curious bouncing motion, and constantly wobbles but never falls down.

----------

ART STUFF:

I originally called this monster "Diablymous" as a Heironymous Bosch tribute, but I decided it would work great as my long-missing "wrath" bird. I just couldn't find a design for one that I really liked, and the other six birds were uploaded months ago.

Textual description adds to the character, but if we take only visual part - its hardly a Wrath.

Omg I seriously love this one it's so symbolic with the dead chick out of the egg holding an eye. Very nicely done.

Bonnagander and Gloomsday (older uploads) are more advanced kinds!

I spot a hummingbird beak, a seahorse body, dog ears, and a chicken comb. Awesome touch with the eyeballs.

Ears and beak are shamelessly taken from a demon in Boschs' Paintings
