Default Mexican Ravens

I now decree that mexican Blackwing is better than the regular blackwing.

Therefore, he should replace the regular blackwing and the old one should be tossed away (perhaps defeated in a gladiatorial arena with mexian blackwing).

Comedic relief would surely ensue.

Put my money on regular Blackwing. On account of both of them being creations of Rich and Mexican Blackwing being more complex and time consuming to draw than regular Blackwing.

Just checking... you do realise that when someone puts a funny hat on, they don't instantly split into two separate people, right?

el cuervo

Una vez, al filo de una lúgubre media noche,
mientras débil y cansado, en tristes reflexiones embebido,
inclinado sobre un viejo y raro libro de olvidada ciencia,
cabeceando, casi dormido,
oyóse de súbito un leve golpe,
como si suavemente tocaran,
tocaran a la puerta de mi cuarto.
“Es —dije musitando— un visitante
tocando quedo a la puerta de mi cuarto.
Eso es todo, y nada más.”

Maybe they found a Mexican Blackwing clone that also liked baubles?

Also known as "Ala Negra".

(Edited. Got corrected because, guess what, I don't know Spanish. )

Surely you mean "Alanegra"... "Asa Negra" means "Black Handle" :)

Thanks. Brazilian here, so my knowledge of Spanish is limited.

Not instantly. It takes 1d4 rounds to complete, and that's only if the hat-wearer fails their will save. This is Tomb of Horrors, right? Am I in the wrong place?

That can't be Tomb of Horrors. It doesn't kill you and it allows a save.

Fixed.

It's "not yet" because they will someday.

You know, when I cause it. With my plans.

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Eh, I disagree. I mean, I love Embracing-Greenness Thog (SO ADORABLE!) but if he became the usual Thog, that would limit future possibilities for Thog and make Embracing-Greenness Thog less special. Same sort of deal here.
