Homebrew Birdfolk Species Details

Concept and art by Shenpai for the Birdhaven setting.

Birdfolk are the original residents of BirdHaven before the Aeros moved in. Known as the traders and known as the workers and cogworks of the system, they hold the history and wisdom below their wings. Known not for their fighting as they are a peaceful kind. They come in many shapes and many colours, arrays of subspecies of their own, yet sharing the same tree.
