The Raptor is a catch-all name for playable sentient birds. Attempts to incorporate this into the game in the past have mostly been failures that ended up making the birds too humanoid (Raptorians and Kenku). These aren't humanoids that happen to have wings or chicken features, these are actual birds that have human-level sentience.

  • The Raptor is a catch-all name for playable sentient birds. Attempts to incorporate this into the game in the past have mostly been failures that ended up making the birds too humanoid (Raptorians and Kenku). These aren't humanoids that happen to have wings or chicken features, these are actual birds that have human-level sentience. As part of having human-level sentience, it is highly recommended that the birds belong to the class of top predators. Eagles, falcons, hawks, owls, and ospreys come to mind. As Dungeons and Dragons does not attempt to model fine-grained details of biology, the races are given somewhat abstracted statistics for the class of top predators.
