Hunter Notes

Monster Characteristics:
Carnivores that prowl the Windward Plains. Their distinct jaw is designed to grab prey and not let go, and they excel at working together to hunt and deal with intruders. It's not uncommon to see a pack of Talioth take on a bigger monster and win by sheer numbers; a clever hunter will take advantage of this and use Talioth to distract or weaken their main target.

Ecology & Habitat

Talioth are aggressive raptor-like monsters native to the Windward Plains. They show little hesitation in attacking anything that crosses their path, ranging from small monsters and hunters to even larger wyverns. Packs are known to coordinate strikes, latching onto prey in groups before retreating if resistance proves overwhelming. Their boldness makes them one of the more dangerous small monsters of the region.

Physiology

Talioth are primarily grey-scaled with red pigmentation that intensifies along the dorsal side of the body. A line of small spikes runs from head to tail, providing limited protection. The head is dominated by a hawk-like beak, edged with inward-curved, tooth-like ridges for gripping flesh. Their eyes are bright green with narrow slit pupils. Each forelimb is tipped with four claws, while the powerful hind legs bear three talons and an elevated dewclaw angled forward for raking attacks. Their build emphasizes agility and quick bursts of power, suited for ambush predation.

Attacks & Abilities

Talioth strike with swift lunges, snapping bites, and powerful leaps. Against larger prey, packs employ coordinated assaults, clamping down with jaws and claws before retreating to regroup. Their tenacity and ferocity make them a persistent threat in the field.
