The Culchan is a huge, flightless, carnivorous bird that lives on the pampas grasslands of Lustria. It is prized by Pygmies and Slann for its multi-coloured plumes and for its flesh, which is considered a delicacy by Humans and Slann alike. The creatures are extremely fierce, but it is possible to use them as mounts if hand-reared. Consequently: eggs and hatchlings are very valuable.
Physique
These unusual birds have strong legs and necks, whilst their head is similar to that of a parrot. Their beaks are exceptionally strong, and can easily crack a man's skull. Their plumage is usually brown, but males in good condition grow a completely new set of colourful red and blue plumage, as well as long tails and crests.
The Culchans can reach 8 or 9ft in height.[4]
