"Why can't you just fly to... OW!!!" --uncle Dlindo before losing his tongue
These mighty birds of prey abandon their mountain nests only when entangled in momentous heroic deeds.
They move in small flocks, centered around a member entrusted with bearing a particular enchanted artifact.
The Eagles will strike only if the artifact they carry is threatened.
They comprehend the common tongue and, if presented with a quest of exceptional valor and an artifact of great power, there is a 1D6 chance they might aid you in your quest.
However, there is also a 1D6 chance they may steal your treasure and feast upon your tender parts.

I like the ideas here, I am confused about what it means for something to to have a 1D6 chance. Did you mean 1 in 6? Is that rolled on the same die for aid and steal chance? Maybe its, roll a 1D6, on 1 they aid you, on a 6 they steal your treasure and feast on your tender bits?
Anyway, love the idea, very evocative. Cheers.
Thank you really much!
Yes! I meant 1 in 6 chance to be attacked (like when obtaining a 1 on a 1D6 throw) and 1 in 6 to be helped (like when obtaining 6 on the already mentioned throw). Need to edit that!
I like it, very clever!
Thanks! :)
