The gierghul are notorious scavengers.  They appear as a great vulture with the head of a bald, scabrous man with elongated teeth.  Gierghul will hover overhead when a battle takes place and swoop down on the dead and dying. The bite of a gierghul causes paralysis (a save negates this) for 1d6+1 rounds, this does not stop the gierghul from trying to eat it's prey while still alive.  Their preferred prey are those near-death or the vulnerable.  For those, they have no mercy.  Gierghul cannot be turned as undead even though there are legends that they are spawned from ghouls.
