Can anyone help me with the stats for an Ostrich please

Hi I'm working on a new Living Glorantha character and I've gone with a Praxian Animal Nomad, however, me being me while reading the section on Nomads of the Waste in Glorantha the 2nd Age I was rather taken with the line "The Ostrich riders are the most foul tempered of any of us . And that is quite the statement to make" on page 47 and the rather hansome illustration on page 45.

I'm happy with how the charater generation is going but slightly disapointed I can't find the stats for an Ostrich or the cost of purchase in any of my Mongoose RuneQuest books. :(

So as I try to channel Bernie Clifton ( difficult as he's not dead) and the late great Rod Hull ( Emu a poor Ostrich substitute ) into this new and not doubt extreemly annoying character can anyone please help with statting an Ostrich or is what I seek already in one of the books and I'm just missing it :D

Thanks in advance

Are they in 'The Book of Drastic Resolutions - Volume Prax'?

I know the RQ3 stats for the pygmy nations and lengthy notes on the most of the tribes are in there. It's generally a pretty good source on the whole of Prax.

Thanks for that :) Sadly I don't own the book you mentioned I only have access to the Mongoose RuneQuest books.
 
Here are the RQIII stats for an ostrich from Resolutions-Prax:

CON 2d6+6
SIZ 2d6+11 (female 2d6+8 )
INT 3 (fixed)
POW 2d6+3
DEX 2d6+10
No CHA in RQIII

Kick Base 40% 1d10+DM
Peck Base 25% 0+DM

Kick is cutting damage

Skills Hide 15% Scan 60% Search 55%

Armor: 2pt Hide

Hit locations as per Demi-Bird (they're in Monster Coliseum)

Hope this helps!!! Apologies if I've broken anyone's copyright. This is meant for personal use only.
