Crows

The Crows are, as their name suggests, a murder of small variegated latex crows flying outside the tower complex's balconies, near the Library.

Appearance

The crows appear to look like simple birds, with black feathers, white eyes, and white claws.

When Colin gets transfurred by one, he becomes an anthropomorphic crow with smaller eyes than the regular crows. His arms have transformed into wings, and his feet are white talons.

Personality

By virtue of flight, the crows are unencumbered by the snow leopard's box maze that Colin must navigate outside.

They swoop in patterns and can catch Colin if he boxes himself in by mistake. Crows were very annoying enemies in the original game, as their attack is homing in on the player. Anyone who isn't quick enough with the Snow Leopard's box maze gets cut-off and trapped by the birds. Getting caught by one of these later on, would mean having to do Kade's second chase all over again. In the Special Edition they fly in wave patterns which are much easier to avoid.

Later in the game as Colin explores the Greenhouse area, one of the crows along with various dark and light winged latex creatures from outside come swooping in, only to comically collide with the solid glass windows. Dr. K admires the beast's determination to assimilate Colin, but not their stupidity.

Trivia

  • The Crow is the only transfur to have a different sound from the others, this being a "Caw" like sound.
  • It seems these creatures weren't brought in for the Genetic Project testing (as using avian creatures would be dangerous to contain), but normal birds infected by the latex goo escaping the tower after the pandemic wiped out humanity, which are now forming new ecosystems as they spread around the cities' skies unchecked.
