description: 'Crow-like humanoids, tengus are a canny and clever people who can be
found across all of Golarion. Tengus are used to being minorities and facing suspicion
wherever they travel, so by necessity many possess a knack for languages as well
as for blades. They live on the fringes of society and tend to flock toward less-than-legal
occupations, earning them their reputation for being streetwise and unscrupulous—a
label that, in turn, perpetuates the tengus'' oppressive cycle of discrimination
and illegitimate work.
Although humanoid, tengus have very distinct, birdlike features, and many would
say that they resemble crows more than they do humans. They have strong, thick beaks,
as well as sharp talons at the ends of their arms and legs. Most of a tengu''s body
is covered in small feathers that range in color from dark brown and midnight blue
to glossy black, with lighter colors being rare but not unheard of. Like many avian
creatures, tengus have hollow bones, making them much lighter than other humanoids
of their size, although few tengus possess the wings necessary to fly naturally.
A tengu''s speech might be punctuated by quick clucks or throaty cawing, and many
tengus practice conversation diligently to rid themselves of these involuntary ticks.
Ruf ing of the feathers and compulsive, jerky movements of the neck are other trademark
habits. Tengus reproduce by laying eggs: the average tengu egg is about 11 inches
in diameter and 16 inches tall and takes 4 months to hatch.
Tengus are a people in diaspora and are almost always found within larger kingdoms
and communities of other races. Perhaps because they are more visually distinctive
than most other humanoid races, tengus tend to be distrusted and persecuted more
often than, for example, elves or dwarves. As a result, tengus tend to gather in
close-knit social groups composed of other outcasts and people of uncommon ancestry.
Few true tengu communities exist, and those that do are often exiled to ghettos
and other forgotten city quarters. From an early age, tengus learn that the world
is not a friendly place and that they must look out for themselves.
