Homebrew Half-Aarakocra Half-Kenku Species Details

Kenkus were born out of betrayal of one great master. Aarakocras were born to protect the skies. When they mix, they create this creature, one with mixed abilities of both. They are granted with the immediate ability to fly, majority of the time straight from birth, while walking takes them longer to master. Being half-kenku, they are naturally drawn to the skies. Unfortunately, They can only fly in relatively short bursts. From their aarakocra heritage, they have talons, dealing damage equal to that of a dagger. Also from their kenku side, they can perfectly mimic any noise that they hear as well as talking normally. Once again, there is a draw back to this ability. Half-Aarakocra Half-Kenku's can only have 5 sounds no longer than 10 seconds long recorded at once. 

Talk to your DM to decide what your character's goal is.
