[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 6348174, member: 2012"] In response to whether or not some of the PCs have previously faced harpies and/or rooks, I would say that for the latter, probably not. [B]Aureus:[/B] Aureus' age mean she was born on Maran, not Harqual. (The Transformation that brought her people to Kulan was eight years ago.) The first twelve years of her life was spent in a constant battle for survival. It is very likely she's heard of harpies (but not rooks) and even encountered them before being brought to Kulan. The hutaakan homeland on Harqual is in the high mountains that were also brought from her world. The range is home to a dangerous array of Maran creatures and Harqualian creatures. Harpies aren't usually found in the mountain ranges of Harqual, but I'd say there is a good chance that Maran harpies (which are bigger) might be found in those mountains. She's unlikely to have encountered a Harqualian harpy on her own -- maybe while traveling with Phar. [B]Phar and Lorien:[/B] Harpies aren't a major concern near the Kingdom of the Silver Leaves. Those lands are fairly benign. However, as one travels south, deeper into the Great Forest, monstrous creatures become more of an issue. Still, I doubt either character had encountered a harpy in the forest unless near the ruined lands of Amylinion at the boundary of the eastern half of the forest. Harpies would be common there, as those lands have turned into dangerous marshlands. Lorien would know lots of stories about harpies, however. [B]Quinn:[/B] It is unlikely he faced harpies in the arena and most of the lands around the Chara Cities are semi-arid. Not good places for harpies. Hmm, I guess rooks would be possible on those shores but the major problems in the region come either from the sea or the desert. There would be harpies living on Thesselgard Island west of the city-states of Sange and Sulinon; however, that large island is dominated more by yuan-ti and even more dangerous creatures. ------------------------ I don't have any additional info for Caerth.
