Malachi Sunchaser

Malachi Sunchaser is a taciturn Corax of the Pacific Northwest.

Biography
Though now shrinking with each generation, the Corax kinfolk villages in the Pacific Northwest are still vibrant and vital. Malachi is one of those Corax who sees to that. While born to corvid stock, Malachi has been spending more and more time as a human, simply to ensure the survival of the culture that raised him. There are some things — legal documents to sign, meetings to attend or disrupt, and so on—that are best attended by a man instead of a bird.

When not working to protect the fishing, land and other rights of the kinfolk villages, Malachi spends much of his time in the Umbra. Popular wisdom holds that if his work on Earth were ever done, Malachi would "forget the sun" in a flash. Affairs of the breed, apart from those related to the kinfolk villages, hold less and less interest for Malachi these days, while he speaks more and more reverently of the wonders found in the Deep Umbra.

In homid form, Malachi usually wears a blue work shirt, jeans and boots. He'sover six feet tall, with his hair pulled back in a braid that snakes halfway down his back, and features that mark him as being from the Quinault reservation on the Olympia peninsula. Malachi is unusually taciturn for a Corax, and at Parliaments, he's quite content to let others ramble on for days while he just notes all the useful tidbits.
