KNIFE-HAWK (GLOG Class)

You are a KNIFE HAWK. You are a hawk, you have a knife, you're good at using it. You're a blade-wielding bird and one aggressive avian. Inspired by an image originally posted by deus ex parabola in #brain-fuel on the OSR Discord. I hope I did the idea justice.

Start with: a decently thick coat of feathers (as leather), a knife

Skills (2d6): eagle eyes, darksight, bird law, intimidating peddlers, nestcraft, doing cool tricks

You get +1 to-hit for each KNIFE-HAWK template you take.

A: Accipitriform, Dive-Bombing
B: Opportunist
C: Dung Discharge
D: Hawker of Death

Accipitriform: You are a hawk, with all that entails. You can understand human speech, and somewhat communicate with people through gesture and squawks. You can carry up to two things in your claws at once, and up to one in your beak. 

Dive-Bombing: If you drop down onto an enemy from a great height, you get advantage on your first attack roll against them this round.

Opportunist: If the target of your attack doesn’t see you coming, you deal an extra 1d6 damage to them. Increases to 1d8 damage at C.

Dung Discharge: You can release excrement on foes on command. The target must save against their choice of getting hit or becoming annoyed (charm). If they fail, their attention will turn to you when they next act, and most will do their best to get you back for it.

Hawker of Death: You can attack twice each round without penalty, rather than only once. Stacks with damage bonuses (including Opportunist).
