They look like large (hawk-sized) crows, with brass talons and bronze feathers. They appear in large swarms, devastating the countryside by eating crops and poisoning what is left with their toxic dung. When attacked, they fight by launching volleys of their sharply pointed feathers at their victims. Although individually not fierce fighters, they overwhelm their foes by weight of numbers:Stymphalian Bird Flock: This flock has had a modified version of the DMG2 Mob template applied.Size/Type: Gargantuan Magical Beast (Mob)HD: 30d8 (120 hp)Initiative: +0Speed: 5 ft, Fly 50 ft (average)AC: 14 (-4 Size, +3 Dex, +5 Natural), Touch 9, Flat-footed 11Base Atk/Grapple: +30/+32Attack: Swarm 5d6 or feather volley 10d6 (Reflex Save DC25 half)Space/Reach: 20ft/0Special Attacks: Feather Volley, FlybySQs: Mob Anatomy, low light visionAbilities: Str 6, Dex 17, Con 10, Int 3, Wis 14, Cha 4Feats: Weapon FinesseB, alertness, Improved OverrunBSkills: Listen +4, Spot +12Saves: Fort +17, Ref +20, Will +11Environment: Temperate forests and marshesAlignment: Always Chaotic EvilOrganisation: Solitary or gang (2-5)CR: 9Advancement: -Treasure: NoneSpecial Attacks: Feather Volley (ex) targets a 10ft. by 10ft. area within 60ft. All creatures within the area take 10d6 damage (reflex save DC 25 for half). This ability may be used every 1d4-1 rounds.Flyby: The flock may move over a creature to deal it 2d6 damage.Special QualitiesMob anatomy(Ex): Immune to flanking, sneak attacks, critical hits, trips, grapples or bull rushes. The mob consists of 30 Stymphalian Birds, and a spell which affects a single creature, when used on the mob, instead gives it two negative levels. The mob takes 1.5x as much damage from area attacks.When reduced to 0HD or 0 hp, the mob disperses. If dispersed by nonlethal attacks, its members remain unharmed. If dispersed by lethal attacks, on average 9 birds are dead, 9 are reduced to 0 hp, and 12 are unharmed. Regardless, all the birds from a dispersed mob that can flee do so at the first opportunity.</blockquote>
