Call for Suggestions #114: Birdfolk and Their Nests
Added 2024-02-28 15:42:27 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Since yesterday's post, I've put together a plethora of tables related to birdfolk (aka aarakocra, but SRD, etc.)
Here's what I've got so far:
- Birdfolk Loot (posted this yesterday)
- Birdfolk Javelins (posted this yesterday)
- Birdfolk Nest Locations
- Birdfolk Nest Construction
- Birdfolk Nest Defenses
- Birdfolk Nest Ground Access
- Birdfolk Nest Layout
- Birdfolk Nest Community Features
- Birdfolk Food Storage
- Birdfolk Nest Chambers Contents
- A. Birdfolk Combat Encounters (Dominant)
- B. Birdfolk Pets and Allies Encounters
- C. Birdfolk Nest Random Creature Encounters
- D. Birdfolk Nest Hazards
- E. Birdfolk Nest Obstacles
- F. Birdfolk Nest Traps
- G. Birdfolk Nest Tricks
This will also come with a whole bunch of monsters that I plan to stat both for 5e and OSE play. There'll be some adventure hooks, attitudes, and probably some variants, too, to create different types of birdfolks—simple templates that you can add.
In addition to all this, what else do you want to see?
The goal is to make this the ultimate resource for putting together a BYO birdfolk nest dungeon/adventure. Kinda like Dungeons & Lairs but waaaay more versatile.
Let me know down in the comments.
Thanks!

How about variant lineages for different species of bird in the bird folk? Like, a bird person resembling a hawk gets a bunch of extra fly speed, etc. A penguin could get a swim speed instead of flight and resistance to cold. Ostrich gets a crazy move speed, peregrine gets a boost to initiative rolls, swifts only need a short rest to gain the benefits of a long rest, kakapo gets a huge bonus to stealth and/or advantage on rolls, stuff like that. Heck, you could even play with mythological birds and such, maybe give them free cantrips. A Phoenix bird person gets spare the dying, a Devil Bird gets toll the dead, the Benu bird gets prestidigitation, stuff like that.
