Summary0004095: Birds have unconnected arm joints; merpeople and serpent men have unconnected leg joints
DescriptionThe following creatures use HUMANOID_JOINTS but do not have the limbs to which the shoulders, elbows, or wrists would normally connect:

* Blue jay
* Cardinal
* Grackle
* Oriole
* Red-winged blackbird
* Chicken
* Duck
* Goose
* Guineafowl
* Blue peafowl
* Turkey
* Giant eagle
* Buzzard
* Vulture
* Elk bird
* Jabberer
* Harpy
* Roc
* Cave swallow
* Giant cave swallow

Merpersons and serpent men similarly have hips, knees, and ankles despite not having legs.
Additional InformationThese were discovered by writing a script to parse the bodies of all creatures and trace each body part to the upper body (which also revealed the problem described in 0004094).

Reminder sent to: Quietust

Do these joints show up in-game in any fashion?

Not that I can immediately observe - they don't show up during wrestling, and exposure to either magma or dragonfire doesn't seem to damage joints.
