Hukkanan

== History ==
Native to Vorjskan, Hukkanans have been living on the edge of civilization for thousands of years. Serving as spies, tricksters and thieves. 
== Description ==
Hukkanans are tiny corvid humanoids typically standing between twelve to eighteen inches in height. Unlike their Tengu cousins, Hukkanans have separate wings and arms and are capable of true flight.
Hukkanans are covered in patch black feathers which are typically kept impeccably groomed. Their feathers somewhat reflect light. 
Hukkanans are naturally nocturnal and adapted to such a life, seeing extremely well in the dark at the expense of being easily blinded by bright lights.
=== Mating & Lifecycle ===
Hukkanans have complex courting behaviors including gifts, songs and proof of intelligence to determine a potential mate's suitability, this courting however is typically short in duration.
Hukkannas typically mate for life. When Hukkanans reproduce, they will lay between three to seven brown blotched ivory colored eggs in a nest which are incubated for about twenty one days after which the chicks hatch.
Hukkanan chicks remain within the nest for the first six months of their lives after which they slowly begin to explore outside the nest and learn. Hukkanans are typically fully independent by two years of age but will keep growing for the next three years.

== Culture ==
Hukkanans are nomadic scavengers who live among other civilizations. Vorjskan superstition says a gathering of Hukkanans (known as an unkindness) is a harbinger of ill fortune and as such Hukkanans are rarely in one place for long.
Hukkanan culture place a very high emphasis on personal knowledge and cleverness, Few are Hukkanans who are not fluent in many language, versed in academia, keepers of secrets or even adept in the arcane arts.
Hukkanans typically do not believe in personal ownership of goods. Their size making carrying possessions around typically lead to them abandoning their belongings whenever they move location and having to reacquire new ones.
