strike falcon - shawk spoogh (Gwaelic Elven), Phororhacos longissimus R., an 8-9 foot tall,
flightless gruiform raptor, a member of the True Bird (Adar Gwir) Dynasty, indigenous
to the open tall grass strah of the Eastern Continent, where it was the top predator of the biome, a strict carnivore capable of bringing down mammals weighing up to 450 pounds
or more. Though it usually hunted singly or in pairs, it was known to form into
formidable foraging packs on rare occasions. Human habitation and livestock grazing
remained utterly impossible on the Great Strah until all strike falcons were exterminated
in the wild, only three Elven generations ago (1000 yrs.). Today all known strike falcons
live symbiotically with the Gwaelic Elves, where each bird is assigned upon hatching to
its personal, life-long Elven trainer called an austringa. The falcon must be placed at
hatching with the austringa within mere hours of the austringa's seventh naming day
(99th birthday), and they remain in perpetual contact with one another until the death of
one of them. Strike falcon and austringa form a deadly military assault unit for the
defence of the Gwaelic Elves, particularly from the ravages of the Elf Killers, Homo
neanderthalinsis gwaelii R., also known as Social Trolls.

and a dark olive body with a stubby fan shaped tail and thirteen fleshy worm like wattles
attached to the base of the beak. The topmost wattle is erectile, while the other twelve
writhe or hang limp. Females are olive all over and have no wattles. The males may be
the loudest birds on earth, with territorial calls which can be heard as far away as a mile
and a half. An approximation of it might be: "BARNK! seee k' k' see k'berk," or,
"BARNK! See k' k' berk see see see BARNK!"
