 =====Crowfolk=====
-Clever, glossy-black tricksters with shiny trinkets dangling from their belts, shown in your minis as purple-cloaked spellcasters with mischievous grins. Crowfolk collect secrets and shiny objects, using mimicry and wit to outsmart any foe.
+Clever, glossy-black crow humanoids that like shiny trinkets, who are also capable of mimicry. They'd make a nice rogue, but also a pretty good bard or wizard. The liking of trinkets should probably be non negotiable for anyone playing one. These are part of the homebrew [[Animalfolk]] in this campaign.

     * Yes, you may make a pseudo-Kenku out of this. It won't be a true Kenku, but you can make up a fantasy medical condition that lets it only talk in mimicry. If so, name the condition so we can make an adorable note about it here. What it is called, how it spreads, or maybe it is hereditary, if it can only spread to this race. Etc. Enjoy.
-  * Clever Collector: You are proficient in the Investigation and Sleight of Hand skills.
-====Echoing Trouble Bauble====
+====Additional Fine Tuning====
-A sparkly black crystal pendant. Once per day, it can perfectly record and replay one short sound… but it may suddenly blast the loudest or most embarrassing sound you’ve ever recorded at the worst possible moment.
+While play testing a crowfolk named [[Capelin]], along side several other animalfolk types, the conversation questioned which creatures are colorblind. Happily when it comes to crows, they are quite the opposite in that they are tetrachromatic, with four types of cone cells in their eyes, allowing them to see ''red, green, blue, and ultraviolet (UV) light''. This makes them far superior to any other player character race in D&D we've experimented with so far vision wise. They can see things in that UV frequency that no one else can. They see each other not as some black feathered crowfolk, but with all sorts of shimmering colors and patterns instead with that extra color spectrum.
+  * **Tetrachromatic Sight**. They are automatically proficient in investigation checks.
