Description

The Crowmen are menacing, ravenous monstrosities that infest the underdark, particularly drawn to underground ruins. These creatures have a eusocial hive structure, serving under the female egg-laying "Crowkings". Research says that some crowmen are mutated humanoids, which explains their sudden increase in sightings in urban areas.

They are seven feet tall, though typically hunched over. Their claws and beak are sharp and bony. Due to their habitat, their eyes have sunken so much that they are nearly completely blind, though their hearing makes up for it.

On the surface, the crowmen have an affinity for putrid, dark areas such as sewers and cellars. While not particularly affected by lanterns, their senses will be overwhelmed by direct sunlight.

Many crowmen bear torn garbs, likely scavenged from the surface or remains of the people that transformed into them.
