Murder of Crows

Creature 9 (rare) — animal, swarm

Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.

A flock of ravens is known as an unkindness. Certainly the name lives up to its meaning when a swarm of ravens decides to work together. In most cases, a raven swarm like the one presented here won't attack larger foes, but when manipulated by supernatural forces or simple desperation born from hunger, an unkindness of ravens can be a surprisingly dangerous foe. Few birds are as cunning and social as the raven.

Abilities

Swarm Mind — Swarm Mind
Enraged Cunning — A murder of crows can get past most barriers to hound their prey. Simple latches, unsecured chimney flues, loosely shuttered windows, and similar obstacles rarely keep a murder away. A murder of crows automatically bypasses many of these simple obstructions and can attempt a DC 25 Thievery check to get through more complex obstructions (such as closed windows or simple barricades).
Swarming Beaks — The crows' angry pecking deals 2d8 piercing damage to each enemy in the swarm's space (DC 28 Reflex). A creature that critically fails its save is Blinded for 1d6 rounds as the crows focus their attacks on the target's vulnerable face.
