A Spirit terrorbird is one of the most popular summoning familiars, as it can can carry up to twelve items and restore run energy with its special move, Tireless Run. It cannot hold untradeable Items nor items that are deemed "too valuable". In addition to that, Spirit terrorbirds cannot hold Rune essence or Pure essence. It requires 52 summoning, and is the most common beast of burden.
Once summoned, the Spirit terrorbird will disappear after 36 minutes, even if the player's Summoning energy is equal to zero before the end of the 36 minutes, dropping all its inventory. The player is alerted one minute, and then 30 seconds before the Spirit terrorbird disappears.

[edit] Tireless Run
Tireless Run is a special move for Spirit terrorbirds, which:
- Restores the player's running energy by half of the player's Agility level rounded up
- Temporarily increases the player's Agility level by 2 levels.
Tireless Run is very useful when players have to run for a long time, such in the Summer's End quest, or while doing a special task like an Agility course or doing the Pyramid Plunder mini game, in which players have to do a lot of running in a short period of time. However, familiars are prohibited from entering certain places where unlimited run would be useful (For example, they cannot enter the Ape Atoll Agility Course, Dorgesh-Kaan Agility Course or Brimhaven Agility Arena). Some players find Tireless Run useful when Runecrafting, particularly when using the ZMI altar. However, this cannot be used when runecrafting law runes, because Summoning familiars aren't allowed in Entrana. Unlike the abyssal familiars, it can't be used to carry rune or pure essence. Tireless Run is commonly used for Penguin Hide and Seek due to the boost to run.

[edit] Trivia
- The Spirit Terrorbird almost identically portrays an artist's impression of Gastornis, a prehistoric predator that lived 62-2 million years ago which was also nicknamed the 'terror bird' [1]
