Although this claim is likely not true, those who encounter the creatures and survive often come away believers due to the bird-creature’s unique set of abilities. A chronotyryn resembles a large bird and is roughly 12 feetlong from beak to tail, with a set of wiry, scaly-skinned arms that sprout from just under its wings. Those who have seen a chronotyryn liken its body shape to that of a gargoyle, only with feathers. These feathers are the dark, dusky color of adamantine, of which they are composed. A chronotyryn has piercing, dark eyesand the large, hooked beak of a bird of prey, and it typicallywears a sort of harness that enables it to carry miscella-neous magic equipment that it has constructed. Thechronotyryn’s dual brain and dual voice boxes make itespecially eerie: Its two voices often carry on simultaneousconversations, and at other times, it seems to provide anecho for its own voice. Chronotyryns are believed to be native to Acheron, although the creatures have scattered across the planes of existence. Hoarders of knowledge, most chronotyryns donot willingly share any information. Their nests are built insecret, out-of-the-way places, and they usually consist of ajumble of magic paraphernalia the creatures have ac-cumulated from their victims.
