Raven

Ravens are tricksters. In both Raven and Human form.  And just to clarify, Ravens can shape shift into humans. Ravens, because of there ability to change form, are often shown as messengers between humans and gods.   Ravens aren't talked about much but if you want to read an amazing book that involves ravens as a main point, Tricksters Choice by Tamora Pierce is a great book!  (This book uses all of the above elements of a Raven that I just described.)

  4. They're also very smart birds and can be a very loving companion.

    I like the mystical background on them too. :-)

  5. Very interesting. I find shape-shifters fascinating. I went to amazon to see what Trickster is all about; it got some good reviews. :)
