Arrowhawks are large, aggressive birds native to the Elemental Plane of Air. Their flexible body and four wings allow them to quickly change direction in flight. Fearless predators and scavengers, arrowhawks attack all creatures in their territory, even other arrowhawks not part of their home clutch. They almost never bargain or speak with other creatures. An arrowhawk spends its entire life – from birth to death – in flight. This constant expenditure of energy means an arrowhawk is always hungry, and always on the search for food.

Arrowhawks stalk prey from above, trusting in their soundless flight to keep them unnoticed. Against creatures unaware of their presence, arrowhawks use flyby attacks. Otherwise, an arrowhawk prefers to slay enemies with the electricity ray fired from its tail. Arrowhawks remain in melee only against weakened opponents or if there is no other option. Arrowhawk eggs naturally levitate, floating in mid-air until they hatch. A mated arrowhawk pair keeps the eggs from drifting away while they gestate. These floating eggs are considered novelties in many civilized areas and can fetch up to 100 gp each. The arrowhawk detailed here is a typical one of its kind. An adult arrowhawk is about 10-feet long , has a wingspan of 15 feet, and weighs 100 pounds. Hatchlings are Small creatures with only three Hit Dice. Adult arrowhawks can grow to enormous size, reaching Large size at 16 Hit Dice and Gargantuan size at 25-32 Hit Dice. Such an arrowhawk would measure 20 feet, possess a 30- foot wingspan, and weigh 800 pounds. Arrowhawks live for approxoimately 80 years.
