Most are pitch black, although a smattering have white feathers and red flecks._ \nThe ravenfolk are an avian race of scoundrels, schemers, and sneaks—and they are much more than that. Long ago when Odin brokered the truce that brought peace among the gods, the wily deity magically created the ravenfolk from feathers plucked from his ravens Huginn (Thought) and Muninn (Memory.) He placed this new race into the world alongside elves, dwarves, humans, and others to be his spies. \n**Odin’s Children.** To this day, the ravenfolk are Odin’s agents and embody his thought and memory. They are thieves of objects, yes, but primarily, they are thieves of secrets. Their black feathers and long beaks are spotted on the road from place to place, trading information or helping to hatch plots. They are widely viewed as spies, informers, thieves, and troublemakers, but when the ravenfolk swear an oath, they abide by it. \nOdin grants the best of his ravenfolk magical runespears and runestaves, two-handed heavy weapons enchanted to serve his messengers. These function as long spears or quarterstaves in the hands of other races. The ravenfolk consider them special tokens meant for their use, and no one else’s. \n_**Flightless but Bold.**_ Though they have no wings and normally cannot fly, the physiology of ravenfolk is strikingly similar to that of true avians. They stand roughly 5 ft. tall and, because of their hollow bones, weigh just 95-105 lb. Albino ravenfolk are found in southern climates. \nRavenfolk eat almost anything, but they prefer raw meat and field grains, such as corn, soy, and alfalfa. They even scavenge days-old carrion, a practice that repulses most other humanoids. \n_**Feather Speech.**_ The huginn have their own language, and they have another language which they may use as well: the language of feathers, also known as Feather Speech or Pinion. Ravenfolk can communicate volumes without speaking a word through the dyeing, arrangement, preening, and rustling of their plumage. This language is inherent to ravenfolk and not teachable to unfeathered races.", "name": "Ravenfolk Scout", "size": "Medium", "type": "Humanoid", "subtype": "kenku", "group": null, "alignment": "neutral", "armor_class": 14, "armor_desc": "studded leather armor", "hit_points": 21, "hit_dice": "6d8 - 6", "speed": { "walk": 30 }, "strength": 10, "dexterity": 14, "constitution": 8, "intelligence": 10, "wisdom": 15, "charisma": 12, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": 4, "constitution_save": 1, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": 4, "charisma_save": 3, "perception": 6, "skills": { "deception": 3, "perception": 6, "stealth": 6 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "", "damage_immunities": "", "condition_immunities": "", "senses": "darkvision 120 ft., passive Perception 16", "languages": "Common, Feather Speech, Huginn", "challenge_rating": "1/2", "cr": 0.5, "actions": [ { "name": "Multiattack", "desc": "The ravenfolk scout makes one peck attack and one other melee or ranged attack." }, { "name": "Ghost Wings", "desc": "The ravenfolk scout furiously \"beats\"a set of phantasmal wings.

Those bound to these pacts become warlocks, but the will and force of their patron is borne by more than just those who strike bargains for sorcerous power. A fext is a former warlock who has become wholly dedicated to their patron—mind, body, and soul—and functions as enforcer, bodyguard, and assassin. They are powerful undead slaves to the will of their otherworldly patron. \n**Linked to a Master.** Each fext is a unique servant of their patron and exhibits the physical traits of its master. The eyes of every fext are tied directly to their patron’s mind, who can see what the fext sees at any time. The fext also possesses a telepathic link to its patron. \nThe process a warlock undergoes to become a fext is horrendous. The warlock is emptied of whatever morality and humanity he or she had as wine from a jug, and the patron imbues the empty vessel with its corruption and unearthly will. Whatever life the fext led before is completely gone. They exist only to serve. \n**Outdoing Rivals.** Scholars have debated about how many fext a patron can command. The more powerful and well-established have at least 100, while others have only a handful. Where there is more than one fext, however, they maneuverings amongst themselves to curry favor with their powerful lord. Each fext is bound to obey commands, but they attempt to carry them out to the detriment of their competitors. Scheming is common and rampant among them and they try to work without the aid of other fext as much as possible. \n**Undead Nature.** A fext doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.", "name": "Fext", "size": "Medium", "type": "Undead", "subtype": "", "group": null, "alignment": "any alignment", "armor_class": 17, "armor_desc": "natural armor", "hit_points": 60, "hit_dice": "11d8+11", "speed": { "walk": 30 }, "strength": 14, "dexterity": 16, "constitution": 1, "intelligence": 14, "wisdom": 12, "charisma": 18, "strength_save": null, "dexterity_save": 6, "constitution_save": null, "intelligence_save": null, "wisdom_save": 4, "charisma_save": 7, "perception": 4, "skills": { "perception": 4 }, "damage_vulnerabilities": "", "damage_resistances": "bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage with nonmagical weapons", "damage_immunities": "", "condition_immunities": "charmed, exhaustion, frightened, paralyzed, poisoned", "senses": "darkvision 60 ft., passive Perception 14", "languages": "the languages spoken by its patron", "challenge_rating": "6", "cr": 6.0, "actions": [ { "name": "Multiattack", "desc": "The fext makes two melee or ranged attacks." }, { "name": "Eldritch Blade", "desc": "Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
