Argulor

Argulor was an aging male golden eagle who initially lived in Mossflower Woods, moved out to a mountain stronghold in the West, and then returned back to Mossflower for no apparent reason.

Because of his age, his sight was very poor and he was slow moving; he is described as having curving talons and a fierce hooked beak. Generally, he dined on the clumsy troops from Kotir. In his long life, he had a healthy relationship with Verdauga Greeneyes, however Verdauga's daughter Tsarmina was afraid of Argulor, and insisted on his death by the throwing of spears and stones at the bird.

Having never tasted pine marten, his primary goal was to eat Ashleg, who was under the service of the Greeneyes. Argulor was fooled when he attacked Bane, who was wearing Ashleg's former cloak.

Stricken with disappointment and injured from Bane's waving sword, Argulor's ancient heart gave out and he died in mid-air, falling from the sky with Bane still held in a deathgrip.
