Homebrew KIWI Species Details
Appearance
Kiwis are brown flightless birds which rely on their smell and ears to survive, since most of them have poor sight or some are even blind.
Origins
Living in a virgin group of islands, Kiwis grew without natural predators and because of that, most have lost their fear instinct. This didn't help to their case for when humanoid races arrived on the islands, exploring with their ships, causing almost their immediate way to extinction since they were an easy hunt for food.
Still some of them survived, caged and sent to new lands as exotic pets to trade.
