Pterafolk are vicious and mean-tempered, and they enjoy cruelty. They care little for elaborate strategy, although they have been known to plan raids on small villages. They prefer to attack from the air, swooping down on opponents to quickly gain the upper hand. In large groups, they sometimes use weapons such as great barbed spears (attack bonus +8 melee, damage 1d8+7).
