Garuda from Final Fantasy X.

Roc is a fiend type in Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2. Unlike the other bird species, Rocs are more powerful and can endure more damage than their smaller counterparts, and can hit the entire party with their signature attack: Sonic Boom. In Final Fantasy X-2 they can Oversoul after 12 kills and gain the ability to wipe out the party with the powerful Chicken Wing Lv.1, Lv.2, and Lv.3 attacks, which inflict damage equal to 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 of the character's max HP, respectively.

Etymology[]

A roc or ruk (from the Arabic and Persian رخ rokh, asserted by Louis Charles Casartelli to be an abbreviated form of Persian simurgh) is an enormous legendary bird of prey, often said to be white.
