Vran
Species of uplifted crows created on Terra in the twenty-first century A.D.
The vran genome was based on the New Caledonian Crow, with artificial coding for brain structures and morphological modification.
Biology
They retain the same bodyplan as their sub-sapient ancestors, but are somewhat larger and have iridescent coloring on the leading edges of their wings and around their necks. This may have been added as a distinguishing mark so uneducated humans would think twice before shooting them. Two crude "fingers" were also added to the second joint on the wings. Their skulls were enlarged to accommodate an intelligent brain and the positioning of their eyes adjusted to face slightly more forward.The vran genome was based on the New Caledonian Crow, with artificial coding for brain structures and morphological modification.
