Appearance
Personality
Background
Little is known of the Winged Warrior. According to Kade, it's an "apocryphal figure from the Middle Elven Pantheon." There's a statue of it in the Hall of Gods in the Temple of Ellara, and if you choose to examine it in Book 1, Chapter 2, Nia admits she's never even heard of a God like it. Both of you are unsettled by the statue's ominous appearance, spiked club, and hate-filled eyes.
In Book 3, Chapter 1, Nifara orders it to kill you and your allies as penance for having touched Shadow magic.

Trivia
- Its crimes include murder.
- It's unclear if this Winged Warrior is the same as the one from the legends. Although Kade identifies it as such in Chapter 1, Threep disagrees in Chapter 2. He either cites its different color, since this one is gold and the legendary figure was known as the Dark Winged Warrior, or he points out that the original was never thought to be a real monster at all, but rather a metaphor or an act of nature.
