A very specific form of Giant Flyer hailing from Arabic and Persian folklore, the roc (sometimes spelled ruk or rukh) typically takes the form of an eagle or condor of stupefying size. Additional embellishments are rare, but they may sometimes have two heads. Rocs are universally much bigger than the usual brand of predatory flying monsters, which tend to be "merely" big enough to carry off a man in their talons. The rocs' size is usually brought to deliberate extremes; generally, they are in the same size range as flying dragons or airplanes. The rocs' mind-boggling dimensions are sometimes used to emphasize the strangeness, wonder and exoticness of the areas they are found in — something so huge, such as vast and exaggerated version of a common animal, is so unlike anything one could find in a normal, familiar setting that the presence of a roc leaves no doubt that the story has crossed into somewhere strange and wondrous. As such, rocs are often placed in unexplored areas ripe for adventure stories — the Island of Mystery is a particularly common nesting spot — especially ones tied to "Arabian Nights" Days, Mystical India, and neighboring locations in the Hollywood Atlas. Their size also allows rocs to play an exaggerated version of the role of the Kidnapping Bird of Prey; they traditionally prey on large animals, from cattle and horses up to elephants, rhinos, and whales, and may sometimes prey upon other large monsters. They rarely target individual human-sized characters due the sheer size difference, but may easily be able to carry away an entire ship or boat in their talons. These creatures are especially likely to appear in stories associated with Sinbad the Sailor. Humor may sometimes be derived from the similarity between the words "roc" and "rock", whether in the form of rocs made out of actual rocks or characters confusing one word for the other. Obviously, no flying bird in real life approaches the size of the mythical Roc. However, there is a theory that the myth was inspired by sightings of the extinct elephant bird of Madagascar, which died out around the year 1200. The name "elephant bird" even comes from Marco Polo's description of a giant bird on Madagascar big enough to carry off an elephant. Elephant birds, of course, could not fly, but they could have been mistaken for the babies of a much larger bird. Another extinct Madagascan bird, the Malagasy crowned eagle, may have also inspired the Roc myth. This large bird of prey had a wingspan of up to six feet, and was one of the chief apex predators of the island until going extinct by around 1500. They may have been mixed up with accounts of the aforementioned elephant birds, which over time, would have resulted in rumors of gargantuan eagle-like birds living on Madagascar. Historically, supposed roc feathers were often given as gifts to kings, and Marco Polo claimed to have seen one given to Kublai Khan and describes them in his accounts as being twice the width of a man's hand. Many believe that these were probably actually the leaves of the raffia palm. While this trope most often refers to the roc bird itself, other mythical giant birds of prey of a similar nature from other nationalities may also fall under this trope, with examples including the Native American Thunderbird, the Jewish Ziz, the Hindu Garuda, or the Chinese Peng. See also Rent-a-Zilla, Giant Flyer, Feathered Fiend, Dire Beast, and Kidnapping Bird of Prey. Not to be confused with the rook, a Real Life crow-like bird from Eurasia (although the chess piece known as the rook may have been inspired by the roc, and in German castling is called "Rochade"). |

Aladdin: The Series: In one episode, the villain Abis Mal uses magical feathers from a baby roc to turn his men into walking tornadoes and loot Agrabah (and indirectly frames Aladdin's friend Abu), so Aladdin tries to free the baby roc and sends Genie to find the mother. There's also Running Gag where people keep mistaking "roc" and "rock" in conversation. | |

The Order of the Stick: A drunken wizard teleports the Order into a roc's nest. Fortunately, the roc eats the wizard first, becomes drunk itself, and passes out. In a later strip, when the characters are on an airship going through a high mountain pass, hazard signs are visible warning of falling rocks and falling rocs. An in-universe version of Sesame Street has a Big Bird-like full-body puppet called Little Roc. | |

Exalted: Rocs are condor-like birds with wingspans in excess of sixty feet. They do not seem to grow old — none have ever died of old age — and breed very rarely. A number roost on the floating island of Mount Metagalapa, whose people sometimes ride them. Rocs are very proud, however, and only rarely consent to take a rider. | |

Pathfinder: Rocs are highly territorial, mountain-nesting raptors that grow so large that they can dwarf full-grown dragons. They typically hunt by snatching up their prey, carrying them high into the air and dropping them to ground, before flying down to eat the remains. Roc eggs fetch tremendous prices and are especially prized by cloud and storm giants, who use the giant birds as guard animals and flying mounts. Rukhs appear as a separate, although related, type of creatures resembling giant two-headed vultures (a Shout-Out to the Ray Harryhausen version from The 7th Voyage of Sinbad listed above). Unlike their more predatory cousins, they are scavengers and hunters of small prey (which given their size still means things like camels and humans). According to Qadiran worshippers of Sarenrae, the first phoenixes — which in Pathfinder are around the same size as rocs — were created when the goddess awakened a flock of rocs to sapience, blessing them with her fires when the newly intelligent birds pledged themselves to her service. |

Dungeons & Dragons: Rocs have appeared since the game's first edition as birds of prey large enough to carry off elephants in their claws. They are often associated with giants, who tame them as aerial mounts, although wild rocs will hunt giants. In fact, 5th edition lore says the giants' chief god Annam created rocs as air support in the giants' ancient war against the dragons. Al-Qadim: It should come as no surprise that they are a prominent part of the setting, given the "Arabian Nights" Days theme. In fact the setting has three variations. Asides from the common roc found in other settings, there are also the intelligent great rocs and the evil-aligned two-headed rocs (based on the Ray Harryhausen one from The 7th Voyage of Sinbad). The 3.5th Edition Monster Manual II describes chaos rocs, a breed of rocs with rainbow feathers and the ability to cast prismatic spray — a spell that emits rays of colored light, each of which causes a different effect to those it hits — from their eyes. In 4th Edition, The Phoenix and Thunderbird (or thunderhawk in the default setting) are considered species of rocs native to the Elemental Chaos (and possessing the elemental powers that come with such an origin). Rocs are smaller in this edition — "just" big enough to fly off with a cow clutched in their talons — but retain their association with giants, which are also tied to the Elemental Chaos; storm giants in particular enjoy taming thunderhawks. |

Dwarf Fortress: Rocs are a type of megabeast, a group of extremely rare, large and powerful creatures that will attack you fortress when certain conditions are met and are generally capable of wrecking fortresses on their own. They are the third largest creatures in the game behind fully-grown dragons (which take fifty times as long to reach their full size) and giant sperm whales, and the biggest flying creatures of all. A newly hatched roc is as big as a fully-grown giant eagle. | |

Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas features a rather creative take on the Roc — depicted as one of Eris' "pets", the Roc is a giant, owl-like monster that can control ice. Its mere arrival on the island the crew shows up on changes it from a tropical paradise to a snowy tundra in seconds. Additionally, it's given claws on its wings not unlike those of a bat or a pterosaur, and it briefly uses those claws to crawl around with. According to Word of God, they researched real life snowy owls to get a feel for how the bird would look and move. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: The Roc itself never appears, but the Roc's Feather shows up as an item that allows the otherwise ground-bound Link to jump. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker has the Helmaroc King, a giant bird with a metal mask over its face that serves as Ganondorf's Dragon. At the start of the game it kidnaps Link's sister Aryll, kicking off the main plot. There are also the Kargarocsnote Almost surely an English > Japanese > English mis-transliteration of "Cargo Roc(s)", a name fitting for what they do in-game, smaller (though still man-sized) mook variants of the same species. |

Book of Imaginary Beings: The rukh, or roc, is a vast exaggeration of an eagle or vulture typically found in the Indian Ocean. It may have been inspired by condors blown far from home, or may be a wholly fictitious creation. It is large enough to feed on elephants and on enormous serpents that prey on the former, and was encountered by Sinbad and described by Marco Polo. | |

Golden Sun: Golden Sun: The Lost Age: Rocs appear in the second game as common enemies, being merely man-sized birds. Golden Sun: Dark Dawn: The Mountain Roc is large enough to carry off human prey when Amiti recalls indirectly encountering it as a child, to be worshipped as a god the nation of Morgal, to force the camera to zoom out during your boss fight against it (and you still don't get the whole thing on your screen) and that its gizzard acts as a Womb Level, albeit a short one. |

Final Fantasy: In various games, you get the Zuu — gigantic birdlike monsters — as random encounters. The Rukh are a more powerful palette swapped Zuu. Final Fantasy IX: Rocs are giant birds with spikes running down their backs and bellies and long bony tails, and are very powerful and dangerous enemies. They come in a number of varieties besides the basic grey roc, including ones named after the Diatryma, the suzaku and the ouzelum bird. Final Fantasy XIV: The Coerthas Central Highlands has a type of bird enemy called a bateleur, with one FATE in the area pitting you against an upscaled one named Roc. |

Magic: The Gathering: Rocs have appeared throughout the history of the game as large and powerful Bird creatures. In later sets especially they tend to be depicted as enormous golden eagles. The first roc, Roc of Kher Ridges, was released in the very first set ever printed. Two cards, Rukh Egg and Roc Egg, depicted inert eggs (weak, 0/3 creatures in-game) that on dying "break" open to create a much larger bird (a 4/4 and 3/3 creature with flying). The rukhs, also called "stonefeathers" and resembling bat-winged rocs, are supposed in-universe to descend from "a phoenix that sacrificed its flame for a body of stone". On Ravnica, rocs were among the creatures that managed to endure the plane becoming covered by a single, endless city far in the past. In the modern day they perch on the world-city's spires instead, occasionally tearing off whole roofs when they forget to loosen their claws when taking off; many are also used by the Boros Legion as flying mounts and as a way of apprehending criminals by the simple means of snatching them up in their talons and carrying them off into the sky. Rocs are also found on the plane of Kaladesh, where at least some have four wings. Tarkir has its own native rocs, which after the altering of the timeline become competitors to the dragons. |

Tolkien's Legendarium: The Giant Eagles are colossal, ageless, benevolent agents of the chief Physical God on Middle-Earth. Their leader Thorondor is described as having a 180 foot wingspan and powerful enough to scar Morgoth himself. Although their true nature was left ambiguous, Tolkien speculated that they could be angelic Maiar in animal form, or else animals that had been partly uplifted to sapience. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: In "Molt Down", while in the Everfree Forest, the smell Spike is emitting as part of his molt attracts a roc; it promptly tries to eat him and the ponies he's with, strafing its ground-bound targets and trying to carry them off in its talons. It's stated that rocs, alongside hydras and tatzlwurms, are the biggest danger faced by young, molting dragons newly kicked out of their homes, tracking them down through the smell they produce and stopping at nearly nothing to devour them. There's also a moment of confusion early on when Smolder is explaining this to Spike, and he thinks she's talking about rocks instead. | |

Journey to the West: There are two Peng demons (see below) which sometimes are translated as Rocs. The first plays a marginal role and is the Peng Demon King, one of Sun Wukong's friends and bearer of the title of "Great Sage who Muddles the Heaven". The second one is known as either the "1000 Li-Travelling Peng" or "Great Golden-Winged Peng Bird" and is one of the three Demon Kings of the Lion Camel Mountain Range. Essentially a humanoid Roc wearing armor and wielding a FÃ ngtianji (Squared Heaven Halbeard) and is one of the few enemies good enough to be a match for Sun Wukong, who's forced to seek the help of Buddha to submit him. | |

Chess: An indirect appearance: the name of the bird in Persian (rukh) is the same as an old word for chariot.note The word is related to the "Ratha" (a Hindi chariot), the Latinate "rotor" (and variants), and the German "Rad" (a wheel). Had it survived into modern English it would've been "rath". This was applied to one of the pieces of chess in the Middle Ages, which became the rook in modern English. | |

GURPS Fantasy Bestiary lists the Roc as a bird of prey so vast that its beak alone is the size of an ox. It lives on an island in the middle of the ocean, and people can use it as a means of transport by tying themselves to its legs and waiting for it to fly away — while the Roc could easily destroy a human hitchhiker, its sheer size means that it has trouble even noticing the presence of such tiny beings. | |

The Arabian Nights is the Trope Codifier: while rocs appear in many older legends, this is the work where the most widely known and referenced story featuring them — that of the voyages of Sinbad the Sailor — was penned. Within the story of Sinbad himself, the roc appears in two specific parts: In Sinbad's second voyage, he becomes stranded on an island inhabited by rocs. He escapes by attaching himself to one of the enormous birds when it flies away and lets it carry him to the mainland, where it lands after reaching a valley home to monstrous snakes large enough to swallow an elephant whole — these snakes being the rocs' main prey. In Sinbad's fifth voyage, he and his crew land on an island where they discover a gigantic roc egg taller than a man. They break it despite Sinbad's warnings, and the unborn chick provides enough meat to feed the whole crew. This comes to bite the crew shortly thereafter when they try to leave: the furious parents chase them and bombard their ship with massive boulders, sinking it. The Roc bird ("rukh" in Richard Burton's famous English translation), whose eggs are fifty feet broad and who is strong enough to carry a piece of mountain in his claws, also appears in "Abd Al-Rahman the Maghribi's Story of the Rukh". The original Aladdin story ends when the Big Bad (the previous Big Bad's brother) manipulates Aladdin's wife into thinking a roc's egg is the only decoration missing from their palace. Aladdin asks the genie of the lamp to get one, and the genie launches into a sudden vitriolic speech about how, after basically solving all of Aladdin's problems, he should now put his master in chains to serve as decoration. Exactly how an egg (or a giant bird, at that) can be a genie's master is never explained. |
