Ancestry
Bird folk have avian ancestry, lending them particular traits unique to birds and birdkind, including feathered wings that grow from your back, talons, and a hard beak. Some resemble large bird of prey, like eagles or hawks, while others have a more corvid appearance, looking like ravens or crows.

Culture
Characters who grow up among the bird folk tend to adopt their cultural practices. Most bird folk communities, often called eyries, are on cliff sides or mountain tops, though a few with a contingent of bird folk with waterfowl ancestry prefer to settle near bodies of water. Children are trained from a young age to spot game from these locations and festivals often revolve around seasons and the weather.
