Avions

Avions are humanoids with bird genetics. They may or may not have wings but all are feathered. They tend to be very slight of build owing to their hollow bones.

Racial Abilities:

Keen Senses: Avions are more perceptive than most. They begin with a d6 in Notice (instead of d4) and Maxing out at d12 + 1.

Predator Instinct: all Avions have great survival ability. They get a + 2 to all survival checks.

Agile: Birdlike grace gives Avions a d6 Agility attribute instead of a d4. This increases maximum Agility to d12 + 1.

Flighted

Reduced Pace: Dependence on flight, and bulky wings, make these Avions slightly slower when walking. Decrease their walking Pace by 1 and their running die by one step.

Light: Flighted Avions fly at Pace 12 per round. Use Athletics when maneuvering.

Frail: Flighted Avions have -1 Toughness due to their hollow bones.


Can't Swim: Flighted Avions' wings are a hazard in water. They subtract 2 from Athletics (swimming) rolls and each inch moved in water costs them 3 of Pace.

Flightless

Flightless Avions do have hollow bones making them light of weight for their size, but they are not slight. They are very dexterous fighters that can be large and fast.

Claws: Flightless Avions' talons are Natural Weapons (page 104) that cause Strength+d4 damage.

Leaper: The character can jump twice as far as listed under Movement, page 92. In addition, he adds +4 to damage when leaping as part of a Wild Attack instead of the usual +2.
