Thanksgiving Encounter/Bounty? for Pathfinder 2e/Starfinder 1e

We always see people put stuff out for RPGs for Halloween, even less so for Christmas (probably because scheduling this time of the year is the worse) but we see very little for rehearsal Xmas Thanksgiving. I certainly have seen some turkey monsters for 5e; great art too but nothing for the Paizoverse so I have made a Dire Turkey (and some friends) for PF2 AND a version for Starfinder (1e) that I call Omega Harvest Bird. I also made some rough art (made by me) you are welcome to grab from this blog of the main creatures along with tokens (made with Token Stamp 2) along with tokens for the Swarms from photos from the internet; I think there stock...

Enjoy!

The Harvest Beast ignores the first 40 points of fall damage and will not do the Breast Bomb if it will harm a Harvest Bird.
