Their toes on their feet are particularly nimble and Falcores prefer to hold and manipulate items with their feet whenever possible. They are highly sought after as mercenaries and assassins due to their ability to reach nearly any height and out fly anything in the sky.
Society
Loner Society
Falcons and their descendants are notoriously territorial and fiercely independent, seeking help only when absolutely necessary.
Anarchists
Falcores swear fealty to nothing and no one except themselves. Their values are usually straightforward and simple with little room for nuance or politics. They tend to excel as lone wolf mercenaries and long range scouts but sometimes have trouble working with others on joint ventures.

Abilities
Winged Flight
You gain a fly speed equal to your movement speed. Every Minute(6 Rounds) of Combat flight causes you to lose 1 Stamina and you cannot rest while flying. You lose 1 Stamina for every Hour of Sustained Flight. Having one or more of your wings wounded causes you to immediately lose the ability to fly until recovered. Being knocked prone while flying causes you to fall until you are able to use 3 meters of movement to “stand” and resume flying. You cannot Fly while wearing Heavy Armor. You can carry 1 Tiny creature while flying.
Increased Space Requirements: While walking requires only as much space as your character occupies to continue movement, Flying upward or horizontally requires an additional Meter of space on any one side of your character. Smaller spaces do not allow your wings to flap and provide lift. If you are traveling downward during your flying movement then the above rule does not apply.
