Revision 2

Overview

The Crake is a small bird that hides on the ground with a distinctive cry. It is cataloged in the Knowledge System under the Lifeforms category as one of Pywel's flightless bird species. Crakes can be hunted for Bird Meat, a staple ingredient in cooking recipes throughout Pywel.

Appearance

Crakes are small, secretive birds with dull brown and olive plumage. They have compact bodies, short tails, and relatively long legs compared to their size. Their most recognizable trait is their sharp, distinctive call, which often gives away their position before they can be seen.

Location and Habitat

Crakes favor marshes, wetlands, and patches of tall grass near water sources. They spend most of their time hidden in dense vegetation, relying on their call rather than visual display. Players are more likely to hear a crake before seeing one. Areas near rivers and lakes across Pywel are good places to search for this species.

Drops and Materials

• Bird Meat (primary drop when hunted)

• Discovering a Crake adds its entry to the Lifeforms section of the Knowledge System

Tips

• Listen for the crake's distinctive cry near water sources. The sound is often your first clue that one is nearby.

• Crakes count toward the "Feather of the Earth" Hunting Challenge.

• These birds hide in tall grass, so approach wetland areas carefully and look for movement at ground level.
