Its vibrant emerald feathers gleam like steel, and its eyes reflect a malevolent intelligence. \n'b' Razorfeather raptors are the results of arcane experiments in creating a more lethal and intelligent velociraptor. They were imbued with blade-like feathers, armored skin, great intelligence, and an instinctive drive to hunt humanoids. The result was a terrifying pack hunter with an urge to hunt and eat humanoids. Now, they\xe2\x80\x99re a relentless scourge upon isolated communities and lost hunters. \n'b'  Escaped Experiment . An arcano-paleontologist thought he had designed the perfect soldier: intelligent, social, lethal, and easy to control. The process went well until the first batch of raptors were purchased and deployed. Without warning or apparent cause, they slaughtered their handlers and escaped into the wilds, leaving a trail of bodies in their wake. The  wizard  stopped his experiments and destroyed the raptors he had, but he was already too late. Hundreds had escaped from half a dozen buyers, most of whom died during the escape. The  wizard\xe2\x80\x99s  reputation was ruined, and the razorfeather raptors were free. \n'b'  Intelligent Hunters . Though lacking speech, razorfeather raptors are almost as intelligent as the humanoids they devour. They understand the speech of those around them, can work door handles, latches, and basic locks, and can set elaborate traps for their prey. Many adventurers who think they have cornered a raptor find they have stumbled into an ambush from the pack. \n'b' Rumors abound of raptors that have learned literacy or how to use magic items, but they remain unconfirmed. \n'b'  Jungle Stalkers . Razorfeather raptors dwell in thick jungles and wetlands. They live in networks of small packs, which share nests and protect each other\xe2\x80\x99s eggs but hunt and socialize separately. Though fully capable of living on prey animals, the raptors have a compulsive need to hunt humanoids. They stalk hunters, lost travelers, and even  attack  rural villages and isolated mines. Most of these attacks are months-long campaigns of terror, with isolated individuals or families disappearing in  surprise  attacks. When humanoids discover razorfeather raptors, or hunt them in retaliation, the attacks escalate and often lead to small villages being wiped from the map.'
