It is rumored that these Creatures first lived in western Lands, and were brought here by a Merchant of little Scruples, who released them into Giza for Reasons unknown.''

Battle
The Cluckatrice is difficult to defeat, as it is flanked by three Chickatrices, its young. The Chickatrice will appear first, and when one of them are targeted, the Cluckatrice with run out and target the first on your team to strike. It attacks fairly quickly, as it has Haste by default and can Slow and Petrify characters. If the player is really desperate and has some Quickenings and Mist Charges on hand, they can try using a Quickening combo. The more chain attacks the player can dish out, the more damage, and there is also a chance of activating a powerful finishing spell, which will do even more damage, as well as hit any monsters nearby.
