Abilities & Attacks
Wing Rebuff (reaction). Trigger A creature moves from beyond the reach of the roc's wing to within the reach of the roc's wing. Effect The roc makes a wing Strike against the triggering creature. If the roc Pushes the creature, it disrupts the triggering move action. Carry. A roc can Fly at half Speed while it has a creature Grabbed or Restrained in either or both of its talons, carrying that creature along with it. Flying Strafe (2 actions). The roc Flies up to its Speed and makes two talon Strikes at any point during that movement. Each Strike must target a different creature. Each attack takes the normal multiple attack penalty. Snack. A roc gains a +2 circumstance bonus to hit with its beak Strike if the target is Grabbed or Restrained in its talon. Improved Grab (free action). Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Grab in its damage entry, or the monster has a creature Grabbed or Restrained. Effect If used after a Strike, the monster attempts to Grapple the creature using the body part it attacked with as a free action. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the creature's multiple attack penalty. The monster can instead use Improved Grab as an action and choose one creature it's grabbing or restraining with an appendage that has Improved Grab to automatically extend that condition to the end of the monster's next turn. Improved Push 10 feet (free action). Trigger The monster's last action was a successful Strike that lists Improved Push in its damage entry. Effect The monster attempts to Shove the creature. This attempt neither applies nor counts toward the monster's multiple attack penalty. If Improved Push lists a distance, change the distance the creature is pushed on a success to that distance.
