Birdfolk
Basic Information
Anatomy
Birdfolk are a form of six-limbed Beastfolk. Similar to Wolbdeer or Griffins, they have both wings and four other limbs, yet unlike those examples, they have two legs and two grasping limbs instead of four legs. All their hands are built similarly to bird feet, yet their arms are structured more like humanoid ones. The bodies thus, in many respects, resemble a Valkyr, but with a bird's peripheral features (head, appendages). Many of their internal organs more closely resemble a bird's, as well.
Genetics and Reproduction
Birdfolk reproduce by way of eggs, much like birds and lizards do in the wild.
Growth Rate & Stages
Birdfolk reach maturity at similar rates to humans.
Ecology and Habitats
Birdfolk are distributed throughout Arstol, but tend to be more common in forests and jungles. They have distinct color patterns which are based primarily on their ancestry.
Additional Information
Average Intelligence
Birdfolk are considered to have human-like intelligence.
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
Birdfolk have keen eyesight and hearing, although their sense of taste is believed to be fairly limited.
Civilization and Culture
History
Birdmen are theorized to be related, either magically or biologically to some unknown six-limbed precursor, in particular some ancestor of dragons or perhaps griffins.
