Aarakocra

Sequestered in high mountains atop tall trees, the aarakocra evoke fear and wonder. Many of these birdfolk hail from the boundless vistas of the Elemental Plane of Air. They are immigrants, refugees, scouts, and explorers, their outposts functioning as footholds in a world both strange and alien.
A race of bird people. Originally summoned by armies during the War of the Elders. Since untethered and have become a race of their own.
