Far above the safety of the ground, soaring, reaching, rising to new heights, to new places that so few have ever seen before. Much like the
Dragons of the world, they prefer the heights to ground, places difficult to reach except on wing, wind rushing about as one ascends to the homelands of the Avians, a place as elusive and unknown as the people that live there. Here amongst the peaks, the Avians mingle, birds of prey, songbirds, waterfowl, all manner of birdfolk celebrating their life in the air.
Avians are the oldest of the
Animal Kingdom races, the animalistic people that are still considered among the civilized races of the world. Their role in the
Eldritch War was to control the skies, their leader, the
Grand Talon, coordinating aerial attacks in various places around the world most notably along the
Crumbling Wall. Avians are known to be an elusive species that are masters of flight that can stay airborne for nearly a day at a time with powerful talons for feet.
Currently, they live in the high mountains of the world where they can be as close as possible to the sky and their native homeland is found on the cliffs near the northern coast of the
Southern Continent, this area is known as the
Crumbling Wall. You will find these people in areas that seem inhospitable in terms of altitude and perilous, steep avenues of travel because it allows them more freedom of flight in the area. The largest city of the Avian species is a floating structure called the
Crystal Nest that is inaccessible to most races but it is known to float high above the
Crumbling Wall.
Ooh, the Crumbling Wall sounds interesting! Are there any other cultures of Aarakocra? You mention they live currently in one place, but is that all of them? Secondly, how does their second law shape their perception of ownership and how does that clash with visitors, allies and others? :) Great work as usual!
