A rare beast with the body of a dog and the head and wings of a bird, chamrosh are occasionally seen soaring over mountainous terrain. These beasts are known to eat a variety of fruits and distribute the seeds far and wide, ensuring that the area supports a healthy forest. It is said that a sighting of a chamrosh is a sign of a good harvest. A chamrosh is very protective of its territory and will attack any creature that harms the forest. These beasts can be tamed and make loyal companions.
