Bird Man

The Bird Man is an enemy in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest.
==Description==
The Bird Man is a hybrid species of a human and a bird, similar to a male version of the Harpy. He is initially found flying, and after a moment, he'll fly down and land on the ground, pace about at a moderate speed for a moment, and then spew a fireball at the player before taking flight again. They are usually encountered in groups of two or more.
There are some interesting traits about the physiology of this enemy. When the Bird Man is on the ground, he looks like a simple man, walking with humanoid legs, and just with wings affixed to his back. However, when he's flying, his body apparently reduces its size and takes a more avian-like form, similar to an eagle with its claws open toward the front.
On the other hand, artwork of the Bird Man appearing in the Castlevania II: Simon's Quest instruction booklet, shows him with vulture-like features, like an elongated and bald head, beak-like nose, feathered chest and thighs, and clawed bird-like legs instead of the humanoid legs he appears with in the game.
