Carrion Owls

only what died the night before

HP 2, Morale −, Bite/Claws d4

Special: Strict carrion-eaters. They only eat what died the night before — never older, never fresh-killed. They follow battles, executions, and bedside vigils for the moment.

Lore: Sarkash's owls have grown particular. The meat must be a night old. Not a day. Not an hour. There are old hunters in the forest who claim the owls know the exact hour of a man's death by some clock no one else can hear. There are old hunters who have stopped saying so out loud.

Gaps / Expansion Notes

How they tell the night-old dead from the rest is the local superstition's whole content. Whether they can be lured with deliberately aged bait is up to the trapper.
