A sudden blackness gathers overhead, vast and winged, and the air itself seems to recoil. The Crow feels less like an ordinary bird than a storm given feathers and a frightening will.

The Crow is invoked as a monstrous force in the wood, its great wings beating up a hurricane-like wind. It remains a brief but vivid threat, remembered less for speech or motive than for the alarming scale and violence of its presence.
Description
The Crow is a monstrous, large bird, described as tar-barrel black and thick as a dark cloud. Its enormous wings dominate its outline, and their loud beating gives it a fearsome, stormlike presence. The text supplies no further detail about its eyes, beak, or other markings. The Monstrous Crow is a very large crow, black as tar, with massive wings that dominate its silhouette. Its broad, forceful wingbeats seem capable of driving the air into a storm. A dense, cloudlike darkness is its most distinctive visual quality; no other markings are specified.
