"It is easy to focus on the dangerous foes one may encounter on the ground, but the blood hawks rule the skies with terrible ferocity. These crimson-winged birds will wait until their prey is at a disadvantage, then swoop down to attack. Watch for their shadows on the nearby terrain, and be prepared to flee quickly."
- Abd al-Hazir(src)
Blood Hawks (also spelt Bloodhawks) are avian creatures found on Sanctuary.
Lore[]
"Bloodhawks are vermin. They're filthy, vicious, damn difficult to kill...I like bloodhawks."
- Katra of Oxen Tribe(src)
Blood Hawks have a reddish hue to their feathers, and are extremely territorial. Their terrible cries and foul feeding habits are characteristic of the entire class of related birds.[1] Spawned from nests in the wilderness, Blood Hawks assail passersbys with quick swooping attacks.[2] They wait until their prey is at a disadvantage before attacking.[3] After the attack, the Blood Hawks quickly retreat, and a flock of them can be difficult to eliminate if the nest is not dealt with hastily.[2]
