They were an artificial race of Man that perished either during the Contagion (due to decmation) or in the era immediately before and after it when the magical infrastructure needed to support their life functions collapsed. Keep in mind they probably required stuff like synthetic food, artificial wombs, sorcerous prosthetics and augmentation in every mamber of the race or similar prodigies just to live. The human body really isn't meant to fly, and artificial creatures so exotic were probably too delicate to survive the collapse of their milieu's technical capabilities.

Discussion
What about the bird men in Scavenger Sons? As a side note, can they exalt? - Myrlan
There are bird-men in Scavenger Sons? The closest thing I can think of are the hawkriders of Metagalapa, but as far as I can recall, the riders themselves are completely normal humans. - Quendalon
On the same page as the stats for the rocs and hawkriders are the bird men - Myrlan
Ah, found them. They are described as "strange beings of the Wyld," which probably marks them as a tribe of Wyld-tainted mortals. - Quendalon
True, but they've been breeding outside of the wyld for some time now, so they may be valid for exaltation (or absolutely not, but it would be cool if they could) - Myrlan
Using PG rules for beastmen and Lunar Half-Castes they can exalt. Hell, using the Wyld taint rules from Lunars lets them exalt, at a hefty penalty. Have Fun... nikink
Sweet! - Myrlan
The text of Castebook: Night specifically includes a snakeman Solar, setting a precedent for beastman Solars. The real question is, can a piney Exalt? -TedPro
Would it be totally awesome for a piney to Exalt? If so, why not! -- AntiVehicleRocket
Just, you know, idle curiousity ... what's a piney? o.O - David.
