Welcome
Birdman in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Birdman
The birdmen of Olivia are plentiful across Khiinori, Rhuti, Quldafjord and so on. Believing they are descended from the Dragonmother, alike their lizardmen kind, they consider them a noble, respectable and civilised race. They can differ in their cultures widely; the Rhutian are more reserved and in tune with nature, the Qinori more intellectual, and the Seero more active and colourful. The one thing that is prominent amongst them all if that they consider themselves in high regard.

Description:
The birdmen vary in appearance depending on culture. The Qinori are often black-feathered beings, akin to the common raven, with black beaks. The Seero are colourful beings that can vary between red, yellow, and blue; they are akin to the common parrot. But the Rhutian are akin to the eagles; brown and beige feathers with lightly coloured heads and large wingspans.
