This Cassowary has a weapon (Solt's axe) it never uses in battle. It's likely the developer copied this enemy from Solt (explaining its monster type, human) and forgot to remove the axe.

Name Origin

テングルフ(Tenguruf) is a combination of Tengu and Rufu.

Tengu (天狗, "heavenly dogs") are a class of supernatural creatures in Japanese folklore. Although the name was taken from a dog-like Chinese demon, the tengu were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey, and they are traditionally depicted with both human and avian characteristics. The earliest tengu were pictured with beaks, but this feature has often been humanized as an unnaturally deep nose.

Rufu is also known as roc or rukh. A roc is an enormous legendary bird of prey, often white, reputed to have been able to carry off and eat elephants.
