Homebrew Eaglefolk Species Details

Strangely Human

Even though they may appear to be just a large Eagle due to speeds at which they move in the air, upon closer inspection they actually look like that of a lightly tanned human with large eagle feathers Covering their arms, back, and chest. Even though they look to be just a huge human with a large amount of feathers, they look different when looking at their skeleton, like birds their bones are mostly hollow and their chests have a larger amount of muscles than the average human, as both of these adaptations to there cloudy and incredibly windy environment have led to them being incredibly adept flyers, this along with the fact that they are usually much larger than other birds allow them to travel at much faster speeds then normal birds ever could.  

Avid Collectors

Eaglefolk love to collect things, they tend to gravitate more towards things to help build dwellings or things to gather more materials to create buildings, although many generally don't care about what they collect or from where as they few many things as having an "inner beauty", so anything from a huge tree too a small, clear rock they will gladly add to there collection. Due to this obsession, most Eaglefolk tend to always carry large sacks with them to carry large amounts of items, the few that are lucky enough to find a Bag of Holding are usually the most relished and loved among their communities.

Avian Heritage

Eaglefolk are a close relative of their material plane dwelling cousins, the Aarakocra, and an even farther relative from their ground dwelling cousin the Kenku, while they are of the same lineage they tend to look very different from one another, while one just seems to be a bird the size of a human, and the other looks like a large bipedal crow, Eaglefolk look more like a mix between the few humans that reside in the plane of air and giant eagles, looking more like an Aasimar than anything else.
