James Black, in art: "Jack" - by Tegerio
Character Portrait commissioned to: 
tegerio
Cannot reference his page, since he does not appear to have uploaded this image.
Asked this very friendly and understanding artist to make a series of portraits of my players' characters for a D&D 5e campaign revolving about good old fantasy racism wherein humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes and halflings are the "higher" races respected everywhere and all other races have to live in slums.
Here we find the portrait for: James Black, also known as Jack by the crowd of fans. Because when you need a singer and performer, none can beat good old Aarakocras... okay... by D&D 5e rules many can. But James is the kind of artist that if the time is right can play instruments while raining lightning. Either as dramatic special effects or as a path of destruction (he also has fireballs for indoor situations).

i mean https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Kenku
no, they are just humans with an enormous beak strapped to their face and weird limbs.

No, no, i know what hexapod means.
It literally means it has 6 feet. (A displacer beast would be an hexapod, despite having 8 limbs 😅)
But i understood what you meant anyway.
Up to 5e the aarakocra had 4 limbs check it here https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Aarakocra but in 5e they changed that into 6 limbs... because reasons. Also they are now "hawks" instead of the vultures they has always been... somehow.
Up to 5e the kenku had 6 limbs (but 2 wings were near-vestigial and you could take feats to glide) in 5e they are now 4-limbed creatures. But they remained corvid-like.
So when you said:

I took it to mean: "oh, so the kenku now do not have 6 limbs anymore?"
So my reply just meant "i confirm that and you can check on this site that: no, they do not have 6 limbs anymore."
(in previous editions you could still see the wings poking out from under the clothes, but very few kenkus actually kept their wings free, because they were useless anyway, unless you took the feat)
