Useful Info
Tengu are unremarkable flying monsters. Like most monstrous version of playable species, they are only as dangerous as the gear they wield. They do not generate naturally, only appearing if a shapeshifter happens to take one's appearance or if you happen to polymorph a creature and get lucky.
Tips & Tricks
Tengu are weak enough to only pose a threat to low-level casters they catch in melee.
History
Prior to 0.14, generic tengu used to occasionally show up alongside more dangerous tengu opponents.
