I wish I would have thought of suggesting a Template earlier in all of this.
Don't think template works for them. As they're originally presented they're as different from their "mortal existence" as the non-templated undead.

That is correct... however, a Template would work to be used with a bird that matches the person/spirit's morality or personality.
Of course, it's a little late now.

Hmm... that's an interesting approach.
I'm presuming it'd be some kind of "two creature" template like the Lycanthrope, which uses the physical stats of the bird and the mental stats of the soul it actually is.
It's simpler making it a straight monster of course, with the "bird type" being merely flavour.

True. And starting Tiny and allowing for advancement to different sizes allows for larger birds.

Advancement: 2-3 HD (Small)?

That should suffice, unless someone knows of a Medium bird we need to include.

I can't think of any 3E "real-world" bird that is Medium sized or greater, except for ratites and similar big, flightless birds. Since all Hama fly, that doesn't seem right.
Unless you really fancy having a "Ghost Ostrich".

I prefer to keep my personal peccadilloes private, not let everyone on the web know about flightless bird fetishes.
