Glorious! Feathers bloody everywhere, mate! Feels good to be home in my nest.

— Blue Jay, after reclaiming "its" nest from Giant Eagles

Involvement

Act One

The Blue Jay is a bird of dubious morals encountered on the road to Rosymorn Monastery. It can initially be found hovering alongside a small nest containing a key and can be spoken to via  Speak with Animals. When pressed, the bird coyly admits that it stole the nest from "some poor little tit who wasn't paying attention."

Talking to it about the ethics of stealing nests causes the bird to mention the eagles on top of of the monastery. It then states that the party do not even need it to catch the "drunk lizards". The party can then try and ascertain what those drunk lizards might be:

• [NATURE] Try and figure out what these lizards might be. (DC 14)

The party can also threaten to eat the Blue Jay, scaring it off:

• [DECEPTION] I'm here to avenge the bird you kicked out. Time to shove off. (DC 14)
• It's about to get less fair. You have to leave this nest now, or else.
• Attack the whiny bird.

The Blue Jay attempts to recruit the party to take back "its" nest from the Giant Eagles atop the monastery roof, which initiates  Reclaim the Blue Jay's Nest. Upon completion, it reveals the location of a hidden stash on the region map.
