Homebrew Pigeoniod Species Details
Among the dark alleys and murky streets are pigeons. Unbeknownst to the world around them all at once pigeons began to talk and integrate with society. A race of pigeons who had mastered magic was born; the Pigeoniod.
Due to the wide variety of Pigeons in the world, many different patterns can appear on a pigeonoid's feathers. Pigeonoids can have any alignment but aren't very smart and usually have very simple goals. Pigeoniods are almost incapable of using weapons and are much more adept at magic. Any attack from a pigeonoid with a weapon must be rolled with disadvantage.
