The Anzu is one of the Children of Tiamat; a man-sized, demonic hybrid with the body, wings, talons and tail of an eagle and a monstrous head resembling a horned lion.  They are found in wild, mountainous places where they build nests and prey on large game including people, who they do not fear. 

Anzu prefer attacking from ambush with overwhelming power.  If forced to engage a superior foe, they will attempt to flank and use hit and run tactics.  Their treasure is always found in their nest/ lair and should not be easily accessible except via flight.
