Simurghs are massive creatures with hawk-like bodies and heads like canines. They are native to the Oderan Wilds of Marquet and are sometimes used as mounts in Jrusar.[1]

A simurgh's plumage is typically crimson. Their canine heads range from wolf-like to dog-like depending on their lineage.[2] Simurghs are considered dangerous if spooked in the wild.[3]

History[]
The Wilders who ride simurghs are called sky wardens.[4] At any given time, 20 to 40 are patrolling the skies above Jrusar.[5]
When the party later named the Bells Hells broke into Dugger's home, a sky warden quickly spotted their suspicious activity at the door and descended to investigate, but the party slipped away into the house before they were caught.[6]
Trivia[]
- Simurghs are creatures from Persian folklore.
- It takes two to three days on simurgh to travel from Jrusar to Heartmoor.[7]
