Combat
Gritaur hunting partys prefer to avoid combat. If attacked they try to disengage while firing their bows. They fly or stick to the ground depending on what makes escape easier.
Gritaur bandits usually try to attack travellers on narrow mountain trails, preferably where they can knock non-flyers of a ledge.
If a whole tribe has to fight mothers and children try to flee while the rest fight a delaying action. Each tribe usually has at least one druid and sometimes 1-2 other mages or clerics.
