Garuda: The Celestial Predator

The Sky’s Sovereign

The wind shifts, and the world seems to hold its breath. Shadows race across the land as the sky darkens—not from storm clouds, but from vast, golden wings blocking out the sun. The Garuda has taken flight.

Wings of Fire

The Garuda is no mere bird—it is a force of nature, a colossal, eagle-like being with golden feathers that shine like fire and wings vast enough to shroud the sky. Legends claim that when it moves, the very air trembles.

Its eyes pierce through deception, able to see past illusions and lies. The most famous accounts describe Garuda as large enough to carry off an elephant in its talons. But its most fearsome trait? Speed. The Garuda moves faster than the wind itself.

The Devourer of Serpents

For as long as Garuda has ruled the skies, it has waged war upon the Nagas, the great serpents of the underworld. This enmity runs deep, for the Nagas once enslaved Garuda’s mother. When he shattered their chains, he swore a vendetta against all serpent-kind. Even now, wherever Nagas lurk, Garuda is never far behind.

The King’s Gamble

A tale often repeated tells of a king who sought Garuda’s favor. He captured a great Naga and chained it in his palace, believing this would lure the celestial predator to his court. And indeed, Garuda came. But not as the king had hoped. With one strike, the chains shattered, the Naga vanished in a blur, and Garuda’s wings unleashed a wind so fierce that it reduced the palace to rubble.

Divine Powers

Garuda is said to wield powers that rival the gods.

• Master of the Skies:No bird, dragon, or storm spirit can rival its velocity.
• Unbreakable Body:Golden feathers that no mortal weapon can pierce.
• Devourer of Venom:Immunity to all poisons.
• Breaker of Chains:Immunity to any binding, magical or physical.

Keeper's Log: The Omen

If you hear the sky scream, if the earth trembles beneath a shadow that blots out the sun, it is already too late to run. The predator does not land; it strikes.

The Final Warning

The wind of his wings creates hurricanes, and his eyes see every sin. When the golden shadow falls over you, pray it is not you he has come for.
