Crow Manipulation is, as it's name implies, the ability to possess crows and make them do your bidding. It was practiced by ancient witches but it still practiced by some today, such as Agatha Tira, from Legend of Nirn and Tycho, from the Burned-Mane Canon.

History
Little is known about the origin of this art, other than it isn't commonly known and almost completely extinct, by the Fourth Era in both canons and it seems that it is only practiced by a handful of Witches.

Levels of ability
The basics involve controlling the birds and getting them to do your bidding, the more powerful the witch, the more power they have over the bird. Agatha Tira, for instance can possess a whole Murder of Crows and make them do complex tasks, like kill people and deliver things for her. Tycho, a less experienced manipulator, struggled to get a crow to steal the key to his jail cell.

Some Witches are able to transform into crow(s) and morph into the creatures, similar to the way that vampires can transform into bats.

It is unknown how taxing this ability is on the caster, though it can be assumed that it does require some concentration and some mental strength, in order to do it. However, Witches seem to do it rather casually, suggesting that it isn't as taxing as some other abilities...
