A Vulture-like race

[Dragonbait]

Welp, I think people have already pointed out some good vulture-like races.

Skeksis were also supposed to be lizard-like in addition to being vultures, so you can add the Reptilian, draconic, or dragonblood subtype if you want.

For miniatures, check out the Nekharu from Crocodile Game's Wargods.

Don't forget vrocks (Demon, Vrock; Type I Demon; True Tanar'ri, Vrock), especially as Tony DiTerlizzi drew them.

Ugly versions of raptorans from Races of the Wild?

If you're looking for those specific vulture-like creatures from the Dark Crystal, the Nagpa is probably the best way to go and they were recently updated in Dragon magazine for v.3.5 (if that's the version you use). Not sure of the issue. Think it was late 2005.

There were the Vulchlings, a vulture-like bird race. You can find them in the original Monster Manual II (1e). Also, I believe they are done up for 3e in the Tome of Horrors.

you're welcome.


Edit: on second thought, it's been so long, that i'm not so sure that conversion was mine...

Nagpas were converted in Dragon magazine, I believe. I remember seeing them.

Also, the Aarakockra of Dark Sun were described as being vulture-like. They weren't nearly as parrot-like as the core Aarakockra.

I'm currently working the kinks out of my Were-vulture template....
