glad i have one.

"Quill pens were made from the feathers of a variety of birds, each one chosen for its special characteristics. Raven or crow feathers were chosen for the finest work."

Become friends with an aquatic creature druid, like a Mer-person or something.

I don't think that the familiar would like it :D Also you won't get rich that way. A better way is to roam the countryside and hunt for wild crows and ravens :P

Well, Orc Blood is black. Which makes you wonder, just what the hell is orc blood based on?? I guess it could be Carbon based...but CO and CO2 are gasses...hmmm...now I'm going to wonder...

Do you think the half-orc barbarian would mind?

PS. Where do you get that the blood is black anyway?

Instead of using your raven familiar's feathers, you can have it chat up some local birds and negotiate an exchange. "I'll give you all this food if you give me one of your feathers."

Guess that's just from playing too much warcraft and the movies of the LotR. They all have orc blood as black. Kinda a greasy oily substance. Hey...maybe that's what it is...Orcs have the oxygen dissolved into the oil, and they combust it in their cells for energy!

in Marvel comics... EVERYBODY has black blood (Or at least they did until the mid-90's) because for a long time the Comics Code Authority declared red blood to be too gratuitus :P
