Traits

  • Mimicry. Mimics voices and animal sounds; a DC 12 Wisdom (Insight) check spots the imitation.

Actions

  • Multiattack. Two attacks, Scratch or Shortbow in any mix; one can be a Beak.
  • Beak (Raven or Hybrid Form Only). A stabbing beak; a Humanoid it hits makes a DC 10 Con save or is cursed: at 0 Hit Points it becomes a wereraven.
  • Scratch. Raking nails or talons.
  • Shortbow (Humanoid or Hybrid Form Only). An arrow from a shortbow.

Bonus actions

  • Shape-Shift. The wereraven turns into a raven-humanoid hybrid or a Tiny raven, or back into its human form. Apart from its size, its statistics are the same in every form, except that it flies 50 feet as a raven (walking only 10 feet) or as a hybrid (walking 30 feet) and can't fly in human form. What it wears or carries doesn't change with it. It returns to human form when it dies.
