Interesting comparisons, Dimaldaeon!

I guess I always thought the Fell Beasts/Creatures looked kind of like giant vultures...? And perhaps, since there is no other name available we, the Ringers of this board, have stumbled across both an opportunity and a duty to come up with a suitable name for one of the Professor's Nameless Horrors.

How about gierwargs from the Afrikaans "gier" (vulture) and "warg" (well, we know what those are...).

Anyone else?
