Crows and ravens (both corvids, as are magpies, jackdaws, rooks, jays, choughs, treepies and nutcrackers) have both positive and negative associations, but few would quibble with the notion that they are clever creatures. Although it can be hard to tell what species a particular corvid is meant to be in many visual media, heroic ravens are often wise or intelligent characters, while crows tend to be friendly tricksters or Plucky Comic Relief. For example, crows (never ravens) are a staple of The Golden Age of Animation, appearing in countless funny cartoon shorts set on family farms, where their role is to drive farmers nuts gobbling up their corn crops. These cartoon crows aren't the slightest bit scary, though they can certainly be annoying to the farmers (and the occasional living scarecrow). They tend to be tricksters. Corvids often have been portrayed as sentries or lookouts, sometimes with magical powers and/or serving the ancient gods or other mythic figures. For example, the Norse god Odin was purported to have had a pair of ravens that served him in this manner. Truth in Television is very much in effect here; corvids have been a common subject of scientific research because of their intelligence, and the various findings gathered over the years implicate them as one of the smartest nonhuman, nonprimate, and nomammalian animals in the world, being around as smart as a seven-year-old human child. Among other things, they're adept tool users, understand liquid displacement, can recognize faces, and are capable of creative thinking and social empathy (the latter meaning they can understand what others are thinking in a given situation, why they act the way they do, and what connections they have to other beings or objects). For tropes about another intelligent and sometimes mischievous bird, see Polly Wants a Microphone, Fowl-Mouthed Parrot, and Not in Front of the Parrot!. For a similar trope with less basis in reality, see The Owl-Knowing One. For less benevolent corvids, compare Creepy Crows. Idiot Crows, despite the name, is not this trope inverted, but an anime gag involving crows calling you an idiot. |

TierZoo ranks corvids as S-ranked animals in the city meta as well as out of all birds in general, primarily due to their high intelligence that allows them to find food, blacklist dangerous areas, provoke opponents into fighting each other, interface with manmade objects easily. This combined with their flight capability allows them to dominate in the city. He later ranks corvids as S-tier out of all birds in general for the same reasons. | |

Archipelago: The Big Bad of this comic is The Great Raven, an ancient spirit, fearfully clever, terribly powerful, trapped beneath the Earth with a magic seal. Also present is Raven, who used to be a spiritual handservant for The Great Raven. He's also clever, but he went through a series of events that shook his world and made him switch loyalties. |

RWBY features Qrow Branwen, who covers a lot of this trope's angles at once. He's always drunk, often snarky and mischievous, and serves as a Cool Uncle to main characters Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long, so he can be viewed as a comical figure. But a lot of his drunkenness is just an act, he spends much of his time gathering intelligence for Professor Ozpin's Benevolent Conspiracy, and he taught Ruby everything she knows about using a Sinister Scythe, so he's got some smarts as well. Also, he can turn into a crow. Qrow's sister Raven Branwen, on the other hand, is much more morally ambiguous and falls under the Creepy Crows trope. | |

Ravens are used as messenger birds for your Spymaster in Dragon Age: Inquisition, a brilliant and ruthless assassin. The birds are no slouch either, some hold their nerve when there is fighting nearby and most any quest you can do: fight Snownball, reach the Redcliffe gates, aid a companion, ect one will observe and maybe fly off. | |

King Crow: Cormac's helper. It's the one that actually comes up with the idea to restore Cormac to his throne and Cormac is dependent on its news for most of the book. This gets taken up to fantasy levels as its smart as a human and can talk too. It seems to be a feature of the book's world, because Cormac reacts without surprise when the crow talks with him. | |

Discworld Ravens living around the High-Energy Magic building at Unseen University have developed intelligence beyond their already-clever limits, and view the city panorama below as a sort of daytime entertainment. A couple of them bother gnome constable Buggy Swires on a stakeout, constantly pestering him for details. Quoth the Raven (yeah...), who starts off as a wizard's familiar in Soul Music, and ends up becoming the steed for the Death of Rats in later books. He advises a number of protagonists and is clearly more level-headed than most characters on the Disc, if a bit too keen on eating eyeballs (and is well-aware of the associations of his name, and refuses to say the N-word which in his case is Nevermore). |

Pathfinder has tengu as somewhere between kenku-expys and their original inspiration. Complete with a feat that allows them to appear as humans with unusually big noses, even. There are at least two sorts of psychopomp (the servants of Pharasma, another True Neutral death goddess) that look, or can look, corvid: The huge, powerful yamarajes appear part raven and part dragon, and the tiny nosoi often resemble crows. |

One of them even turns into a human to better help and court Aly — crows have Voluntary Shapeshifting in this 'verse. | |

In Tales of the Magic Land, Kaggi-Karr is a wise crow who is the one to advise Strasheela to get brains and later becomes one of his closest advisors. She manages the bird relay, the fastest form of non-magic communications in the Magic Land, and in the fourth book, when Strasheela is deposed by Urfin Jus for the second time, she steps in as regent. | |

Sailor Moon: Rei Hino, aka Sailor Mars, has a pair of crows named Phobos and Deimos (named for the Moons of Mars and essentially Mars's sentries - kind of like Evil-Detecting Dog + Defence). In the manga, they aren't ordinary crows... They're shapeshifting aliens from the planet Coronis whose job is is to protect Sailor Mars. (They aren't this in the anime, only appear briefly as the shrine's pets, and aren't named at all in the live action.) | |

A Song of Ice and Fire Ravens are more intelligent than crows here, and function as Westeros's primary messaging system (similar to real-life homing pigeons). The fact that they're also birds of ill-omen is frequently remarked upon ("dark wings, dark words"), given that most of the messages people get are bad news. A very rare breed of white raven exists, significantly more intelligent than the black kind. They can be trained to talk, and Jeor Mormont's bird has an unsettling habit of saying all-too-appropriate, or outright prophetic-sounding, things. Bran's dreams are haunted by a Spirit Advisor in the form of a talking three-eyed crow, gradually revealed to be an avatar of an extremely powerful warg and greenseer who lives beyond the Wall and uses crows and ravens as spies. |

Game of Thrones: Ravens are used as the fastest messengers because of their intelligence and strength, but are also birds of ill omen since the most urgent messages are often bad news, as referenced by the episode title, "Dark Wings, Dark Words". Special white ravens are used to herald the change of season as seen in "The North Remembers". Bran's dreams are haunted by a three-eyed crow who is eventually revealed to be the avatar of a powerful magician who lives beyond the Wall. |

The Raven Guard are noted for emphasis on speed and tactical strikes (their Primarch was Corvus Corax, a contender for the least subtle Theme Naming in all 40K), and the Blood Ravens for valuing and seeking out knowledge and having many Librarians in their ranks. | |

In Warhammer, Tzeentch, the Chaos God of knowledge, magic, and intricate scheming, is sometimes referred to as the Raven God. Grey Wizards are occasionally accompanied by crows or ravens in depictions; while it overlaps significantly with Creepy Crows (even though they're not evil, they're still creepy), it also adds to their generally wise, traditional wizard-y depiction. |

The Doctor explains that all crows can talk, the ones in the 21st century just don't — he assumes they're surly because they got tired of having annoying conversations with humans. Later in the episode they learn that when the Pict woman Kar pulled a Heroic Sacrifice to save the world from the Eaters of Light, her brother asked the crows to remember her and spread her name to the winds. But they can't say her name perfectly, so it comes out as "caw". | |

Child of the Storm: Huginn and Muninn are a pair of talking animals who have taken a liking to Harry (Thor, not so much), are deputised by Odin to keep an eye on him at times, are exceedingly fond of eyeballs and marshmallows and generally come off as harmlessly amusing. However, Heimdall has mentioned that they were not always birds — they were once (and probably, technically, still are) Bran and Bard, the Raven-Lords of Avalon, Gods in their own right and may be even older than Odin. It's also mentioned that, despite being ravens, no one messes with them, and considering that they're the Messengers of Odin, this is likely for a very good reason. | |

Charlie the Raven in The Munsters is a talking sentient raven that lives in their clock, and is the Deadpan Snarker, probably one of the most intelligent characters in the show. | |

Tsukihime has Gransurg Blackmore, a vampire magus from the Age of the Gods who considers birds to be holy, and transfigured himself into a freakish crow person to better serve his god, Crimson Moon Brunestud. Due to this, the people he turns into Dead also transform into even more freakish crow monsters. He has a Reality Marble named Nevermore. | |

Great Grand-Uncle Schimmelhorn's Toolbox: Amy finds and heals a raven she decides to take into her house for a while because it's mid-winter. However, when she tries to release it, it keeps getting in the Dallon's home no matter what, and eventually Amy just throws her hands in the air and adopts him. Which is when the raven (nicknamed Edgar) shows his smarts doing things like changing the TV channel when it's showing something he dislikes and no one's watching or using tools. At one point he even follows a command from Amy to bite Dennis when he gets too aggravating. Eventually, he goes out to find other ravens for Amy to heal, which leads to her being followed around by a parliament of them whenever she's out, and scientists show great interest in seeing the event. | |

In The Secret of NIMH, Jeremy is a funny and clumsy Black Crow who is allergic to cats. He also appears to get scared rather easily, as he seems to be faint-hearted of Dragon and the Great Owl. Despite this, he befriends the widow Mrs. Brisby and is shown to care for her slightly. | |

Referenced in one Animal Interview Sketch on John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme while deconstructing The Owl-Knowing One. An owl explains that the idea they're clever is a myth, and in doing so says something that does actually sound quite clever, but explains that he heard it from a crow and doesn't know what it means. | |

The Adventures of Pinocchio: Subverted and Played for Laughs with the Crow Doctor who checks on the fainted Pinocchio after the Blue Fairy rescues him from the hanging he received. He turns out to be a verbose Know-Nothing Know-It-All and his colleague, The Owl-Knowing One, isn't any better. | |

Assassin's Creed gave the Player Character a trained pet raven in Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. Valhalla in particular has a lot of raven themes, with the Player Character being from the Raven clan, founding a town named Ravensthorpe, and frequently having visions of Odin and his two pet ravens, Huginn and Muninn. | |
