Bestiary Entry
Acting ruler of the entirety of Harpykind. Valdaris is known by us Terrarians as the only sane birdman left up in the sky. He is the biological brother of King Scifly, and unlike him, was born without those... mental conditions. After the near annihilation of the Harpy race, Valdaris made a pact with a godly being to create a cloning machine and restart the Harpy race. However, Scifly insisted on being cloned and well, all Harpies thereafter were born with some form of mental condition. Valdaris alone is the only Harpy without anything wrong it seems, and it is because of this that he is stigmatised. In the kingdom of the blind, the One Eyed Man is not king, it seems. Val continues to do his duty behind the scenes anyways, while some other insufferable featherbrain steals the credit. I wonder how the Harpies are doing without this guy.
