A red legged seriema named Flash. They played the Flash Gordon theme as he ran out. These birds run 40 miles per hour and pick up their prey and smash it on the ground. Not enough D&D monsters do that.
Random idea for high-lethality D&D campaigns: Character death unlocks new classes and races. Maybe useful in “special snowflake” campaigns where no one reads your carefully crafted setting material. Instead you roll it out piecemeal as PCs bite the dust. “I really want to play a saurian warlock…sure, I’ll take a drink of that mystery potion.” Someone probably thought of this before.
