Description
Appearing as two headed ravens, Valrafni, or gravebirds, are supernatural beings that act as the eyes and ears of heralds of death and some unseelie fey.
Watchers of the Dead. Born under the new moon at sites of recent battles and massacres, the Valrafni are drawn to death and undeath, and may act as a psychopomp or mediator between life and death.
Quixotic & Morbid. Valrafni are clever, observant beings of shifting motivations and loyalties, and possess both a corvids' raucous curiosity and an undertaker's grim interests.
