Dire Corby/Phraarkillorm

[BronzeGolem]

I'm looking for further information on a creature called the Dire Corby and a deity that they've been mentioned as having named Phraarkillorm. Does anyone here know anything more about these creatures, up to and including their previous edition stats, and flavor for their god?

the diety of which you speak appeared in an old issue of White Dwarf magazine.

The dire corby appeared in the 1E Fiend Folio. Its 3E stats can be found here:

I actually love these guys, although I remember Erik Mona (maybe James Jacobs...) specifically mentioning them as an ol' school critter who wasn't coming back (in a thread on the Paizo boards about the froghemoth). But the Drizzt book with hordes upon hordes of them swarming the heroes... just too cool.

I've used them before, and I'll look for excuses to use them again. I think they work well as feral, degenerate offshoots of the kenku.

hey, they're not as silly as a lot of other 1E critters.

Thanks...that's quite helpful.

Is there any information on Phraarkillorm, his relations with the dire corbies, so on available as well?

This is all I managed to find on Google about him, in a .doc of non-human gods.

DIRE CORBY
Phraarkillorm, NE demigod of ???.
Hades/unknown

So I say now is as good a time as any to expand on this. Ecology of the Dire Corby, anyone?

Heh, I compiled that list.

 

[BOZ]

finally able to set this up, now that i'm at home.

That's really cool, BOZ. Where'd you find that?

And that gives me the idea of a dire corby-diakka connection...
