It order to add a little variety to character options, I've decided to add a new playable race. I'm calling them the Tengu, a race of bird-like humanoids. They are not capable of flight, and only have feathers on their heads (instead of hair. They have beaks like crows and taloned feet, but walk and talk like humans. they live among humans freely, adapting to human culture and society, however there area few communities of just Tengu. When not influenced by humans, Tengu have a strong sense of family, and are facinated by technology. Anyway I'm having trouble coming up with racial stats for them that don't make them over powered. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm really just fishing for opinions here.
