Snow Ravens

Among the Fae, snow white creatures have always held a special meaning. The tale of the white deer is a familiar one, even among the mundanes, but fewer have heard the stories of the snow ravens, the bringers of change. Believed to have been lost during the Cataclysm that forced the Fae to flee The Faerie Wilds , snow ravens have once again been spotted both in the Wilds, and even in the mundane lands. What message are these bringers of change trying to tell? Or are the rumours of their return just a hoax?

Basic Information

Anatomy


Snow ravens share their physiology with their mundane cousins, however, what sets them apart is their white, after which they are named. While they are often described being "snow white", the colour of their feathers is more of an iridescent, giving them an eerie, almost otherworldly look. Their eyes have a blind-like, milk white to very pale blue colouring, but despite of this look, they can see perfectly well.

Ecology and Habitats


Snow ravens were most likely brought back with the original Fae settlers from the Homelands in their Dream Willow when they arrived at the Wilds. However, after the Cataclysm that forced them to flee the realm, snow ravens were believed to have been extinct, due to their inability to live in the mundane Earth. This might yet to be proven false, due to the snow raven sightings lately.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities


Apart from their distinctive looks, snow ravens are believed to be able to see beyond time. Not only the future, but the past and present as well. It is most likely this ability that draws them near sights that are about to witness a noticeable change. In addition to their ability to peek through time, it is also likely that they can see multiple realms at a time.
Conservation Status
Presumed extinct, however, sightings have been reported.
