* BirdPeople: They look mostly humanoid, but beyond their wings, raptorans have downy feathers in place of hair, keen yellow eyes, taloned feet, and hatch from clutches of three or four eggs (but still nurse their young).
* BlowYouAway: Raptorans gained their power of flight from an ancient pact with the lords of the Elemental Plane of Air, which also lets raptoran spellcasters boost the power of magic with the air descriptor.
* DeathFromAbove: An airborne raptoran can make a dive attack to deal double damage with a piercing weapon, and they much prefer to rain arrows upon landbound foes rather than engage on equal footing.
* HandyFeet: Raptorans' taloned feet have a strong grip, assisting with climbing and allowing them to wield a specialized composite longbow dubbed the footbow.
* ImmortalProcreationClause: Raptorans live longer than humans but shorter than elves or dwarves, and have cyclical periods of fertility between the ages of 20 and 150, during which time a given raptoran (male or female) will only be fertile for one year out of three. This leads to the raptorans' odd marriage customs -- couples marry in the spring (often in mass ceremonies among age-mates), and each marriage lasts for a matter of months, just long enough for a couple to potentially produce eggs and raise their hatchlings to fledglings. The next year, a raptoran couple may renew their previous marriage to one another, or split up and wed different partners for the season.
* TheNightOwl: Raptorans are nocturnal ([[UnreliableIllustrator their character art notwithstanding]]), rising with the moon and going to sleep at dawn. Their communities thus have a dedicated "Sunspeaker" to handle diplomacy with other races during daylight hours.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: Though they're taller than ''D&D''[='s=] elves, raptorans have elven builds, use a language (Tuilvilanuue) derived from Elven, and their CreationMyth involves their lead goddess Tuilviel Glithien clashing with the fallen elven goddess Lolth, giving raptorans a hatred for the drow equal to elves'. Raptorans also tend to be aloof and coolly cordial towards strangers until they've worked out their intentions, and have a reputation as being snobbish towards races that can't fly.
* RiteOfPassage: Raptorans are not born able to fly, instead they use their wings to glide or assist with jumping. When a young adult raptoran is deemed ready by their flock chief, they are given leave to undertake the Walk of the Four Winds, a voluntary exile that tests the raptoran's mettle until they gain the strength and prowess to fly under their own power. Or in gameplay terms, a raptoran adventurer cannot fly until they reach 5 Hit Dice, and even then for only a few rounds each day, until at 10 Hit Dice they grow strong enough that flying requires no more exertion than walking.
