dawnglider

This feathered serpent glides upon great, leathery wings. The air about their colorful plumage shimmers with heat, and they leave in their wake a blazing trail.

Perfect
Some birds breathe fire. My meaning here is plain.

Aphorisms about Birds

dawngliders are aggressive flying creatures commonly found throughout the salt dunes of Moghra'yi. Because they are both birds and unshelled reptiles, the player character must have at least 250 reputation with both factions in order for one to be unhostile.

Another possibility for a dawnglider to spawn neutral is to be part of a posse of a legendary glowcrow, where they would inherit the glowcrow's neutral demeanor.

dawngliders are commonly flying, making melee attacks whiff against them.

Tips

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Dawngliders are a common killer for early game players because of their highly damaging and long range flame breath and difficulty to hit due to flight. To avoid this, travel in the salt dunes during the day so dawngliders can be easily spotted out of Flaming Hands range. If it is night, the command to wait until day is by default Ctrl+~(aka `).

If the player character leaves a zone immediately after entering it, hostile enemies will not aggro or follow the player character across zones. Using these strategies aid in avoiding dawngliders when your character is not strong enough to handle one yet.
