The '''Raging Vulture''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''.

==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
Upon the ''Black Pearl'''s return to the living world, the Raging Vulture and a swarm of [[Vaporfly]] Heartless prepare to attack the ''Pearl''. The Raging Vulture launches an attack near the ''Pearl'', almost hitting it, and [[Sora]] rides the Vaporfly's smoke to pursue it. When it is destroyed, the Raging Vulture and Vaporflies vanish, leaving Sora and his friends to fall into the sea.

==Design==
The Raging Vulture is a mechanical and wooden Heartless with the appearance of a vulture. The wings of the Heartless is composed of a mechanical wing with a cannon embedded as the joint. Three chained anchors dangle on the Heartless by its neck and two wing joints. There is also a miniature pirate flag attached to the skull-head. The Heartless insignia is present on its chest.

==Strategy==
The Raging Vulture may prove a hard boss, especially on level 1 playthroughs. It is recommended to have a high strength stat to defeat it.

For most of the fight, the Raging Vulture flies around the area. It will attack the Black Pearl and increase its damage gauge, resulting in a [[Game Over]] if the gauge is completely filled. To prevent this, approach the Raging Vulture to draw its attention towards Sora instead. Sora begins the fight riding one of the Vaporflies, allowing him to damage the boss with rapid-fire projectiles and torpedoes. If dismounted he can mount another one by [[Airstep]]ping to it or using [[Rail Slide]] on its colored smoke to get close enough to use the '''Ride''' [[Situation Command]].

When the Raging Vulture is reduced to 70% and 40% HP, it becomes stunned, allowing Sora to mount the boss with the Ride Situation Command and somersault across its back with {{button|circle}} to reach its head before attacking it. During this phase, the boss will breathe fire at Sora every 11 seconds with '''Fire Breath''', which can be blocked by pressing {{button|s}} to surround Sora with a barrier. It's safe to attack the Raging Vulture up to 15 times before using Barrier. After 33 seconds pass, the boss will throw him off, returning to its original behavior. With time and patience, the Raging Vulture will fall.

If Sora is low on health at any point in the fight, he can defeat the Vaporflies to gain HP orbs, or dismount the Vaporfly and heal with [[Cure]] magic or an item before Airstepping back onto another one.
