Krypthawk (kript·aak)
Krypthawks are large aerial predators common in Torunga. These aggressive hunters have relatively short wingspans for their size giving them excellent maneuverability, which is useful in the mountain ranges and canyons where they prefer to hunt. They are probably responsible for more fatalities than any other species on Torunga due to their terrifying dive attacks, and their willingness to hunt humanoids when hungry.
