Blood Eagle

Terror of the Crimson Skies, the Blood Eagle, a being of putrid gore and ancient bone.

It is a skyfaring beast, able to soar great heights, it brings death from above. When it is near enough to the player, it will blast high into the sky and dive downwards at them.

To propel itself into the air, it will spew gore from its large mouth, down at the ground. This stream of gore deals damage, and stronger variants may give it a puddle of acid.

Variants
Variety is the spice of life. Demonic blood-chickens can always use a little spice.

Spews itself high into the sky.

Blood Albatross
Spews twice as high, but this takes a bit longer. Blood Albatross will glide in the air at high speeds to get above the player, and then dive.

If the Player kills it, they can get the Blood Wing, a passive item that allows the Player to charge their jumps, greatly increasing their height if charged up for long enough. At full charge, it sends the Player five times higher than a regula jump, and the Player will deal damage should they land on the heads of enemies.
