A EEEEEEEEAGLE!

What other big birds live in a jungle? Because it can fluff wise be any flying thing you want.

[Heron TSG]

The 'silly' candidate here is of course the wandering albatross. A more reasonable choice would be the Haast's Eagle, which only went extinct 600 years ago, and had a 10 foot wing span, qualifying it for large size. The 'ridiculously awesome' candidate is Argentavis Magnificens, a long-ago-extinct bird with a wingspan of 26 feet, nudging it into the gargantuan category.

[Criptfeind]

Wingspan is huge. A six foot wing span is on the high end of small. That said I vote for Albatross.

Or a giant flying squirrel.

[Heron TSG]

Albatross it is. This is the Eagle stat sheet, should I just use that or do you have some changes you want to make?

(Is 5 HP on an animal companion normal? It seems awfully low for level 4.)

[Criptfeind]

Er.... Well yes, it is because it is basically a companion for a level one char, not a level four.

Also

Size: Small

Space/Reach: 5 ft./5 ft.

I am not sure if this thing can carry you mind. It may be able to.

Also there is the hawk and the owl. As other choices.

*On the other hand the octopus has a +6 to grapple that is not explained anywhere.

[Criptfeind]

Also why is a jungle frog getting a sea bird?

[Heron TSG]

the Hawk and Owl are smaller than me. The Eagle has the carrying capacity to carry me comfortably, though I'm not sure if I can ride it. It's three feet long, and I'm two and a half tall.

Think of it this way. What's a jungle frog person doing in a mercenary company? He's probably lost. Just like a gigantic seabird!

[ECrownofFire]

Here's the explanation of carrying capacity. Eagles have a Strength of 10, which is normally light up to 33, 34-66 medium, and 67-100 heavy. However, eagles are small, multiplying their carrying capacity by 3/4. In other words, an eagle can carry our little frog friend into battle as a medium load. Medium load makes it fly at 55 ft instead of 80 ft, but it's still much faster than the rest of us.

I think that an eagle would do just fine in our group, we're not ragtag enough yet.

[Criptfeind]

I know how it works. I am just having issues with the mental images.

We need old timey aviator goggles.

Spoiler: I don't know what this is but we need more (click to show/hide)

[Heron TSG]

If you had to search 'frog riding a duck' for that, I hope you remembered the bleach.

[Criptfeind]

frog riding eagle with on "medium" No porn any any page I checked.

Internet, you have failed me.

It also was the only picture that had both a frog and a bird. Most were just frogs alone.

[RAM]

It is actually an alpine species, but if you prefer parrots to eagles you could try for a kea...

[Heron TSG]

Considering that it's tiny sized, that probably wouldn't fly.

_{ba-dum tish!}

[Criptfeind]

Nevermind, Criptfeind isn't dead.

*Eyebrow raise*


Anyway this is another friendly reminder that this today's session is canceled.

[Iituem]

God damn it.  Really wish I'd showed up now that today's cancelled.  Especially since Skye had words to say on the subject of that stone - I just hope we haven't shilled it back to our bosses for a thousandth of what it's worth.  >_<
