Features
Flight
Juniper Clawthorne is wild by nature, but has had its behavior modified to accept the presence of humanoids by an intervention. It is trained against its wild instincts to accept humanoids. As creature handling goes up, a member can better empathize, train, and manage this creature's behavior. Untrained (+0), this creature will do whatever it wants and one would be helpless to understand why, with its natural disposition taking over. As creature handling skills improve, a member can understand, care for, and better influence this creature with full control achieved with mastery (+5) of creature handling.
Juniper Clawthorne has a knack for somehow always finding a way out of situations that other Kiros Bird tend to struggle with. This could be anything from breaking or slipping out of a physical restraint (like a shackle or collar) to wriggling out of a spatial restriction (like a cage or room). This can make it difficult to keep control of Juniper Clawthorne and keep them in one place for too long.
Juniper Clawthorne is smaller than the average Kiros Bird in terms of size or body mass. Their compact build can offer better mobility and agility but often at the expense of the power commonly associated with other Kiros Bird.
Juniper Clawthorne has typical coloring and physical appearance for a Kiros Bird.
