In many parts of the realm, communities of owlin live high in the trees in expansive family nests, which are intricately grown over generations through the craft of ''arborsculpture'' or "tree training", with large groups of these extended family units forming neighborhoods where each nest lies within sight of one or two neighboring families. Some degree of balance is kept between children staying to populate the nest and those venturing off, either to form their own such owlin "parliaments" or to experience life in more populous and heterogenous localities. |

Origins[edit | edit source]
Unlike owlin in most other settings, the owlin of The Quelmar Realm are biologically related to aarakocra, originating from the Elemental Plane of Air rather than the Feywild. Having diverged from aarakocra long before humans began recording Quelmar's history, they are biologically and culturally distinct from their cousins in several ways:
- Owlin experience greater longevity than aarakocra, commonly reaching fifty years of age
- Some owlin grow to be well over four feet tall (and so can be small or medium in size)
- While aaracokra communities tend toward a patriarchal social structure, owlin have traditionally been matrilineal and matriarchal for as long as their stories go back
