Roc

Rocs are purported to be a race of giant, sapient birds. There is no solid evidence that has been found in Zelunica or in Andaren that they actually exist, but some claim that they live in Abrizan.
According to some people, Rocs visited Zelunica at some point and mated with Humans, creating Harpies.
