Vulture Awakened

The Vulture Awakened is an Awakened Vanguard acting as a praetorian of Sullivan. His Y.I.D. is a bearded vulture. He is 20 feet tall, but has a 95 foot wingspan. He can fly and attack using coarse feathers that he flings at opponents.

He hates "waste", and doesn't wish to destroy anything, including trees, unaffiliated Awakened, and even the Apex grunts he works with, going as far as rescuing them ambivalently. He is often solitary, and is young for an awakened being.

The Vulture Awakened rescued Apex associates who burned one of Sullivan's books, a signal for help. Sensing Faith hiding nearby, stalking the Apex, he attacked. Following a series of confrontations, only 1 Apex associate lived, and all parties separated. The Apex survivor showed the Vulture the Colorhead they had captured to barter, only to discover she had been eaten by Medusa. In rage, the apex survivor attacked Medusa, but the Vulture stopped him, promising that he would be receiving his pay. Presumably, he reported Medusa to the Vanguards, who made her a member.
