8. Only eagles, owls, hawks, falcons, crows and ravens are allowed to roleplayed!


~Rules of the flock~

All flock rules may be broken. Those to break them will receive punishment. They will be brought before the parliament if it is a serious offence or they will be put back in their place by the murder.
1. The parliaments decision will be followed.
2. The young will be protected at all cost
3. The ill will be killed.
4. All birds will hunt for themselves.
5. If a bird leaves the flock it will not be accepted back.
6. Loners will be killed or driven of UNLESS there are still birds needed in the flock.


~The flock~

The parliament
(Owls; deciders) - 5/5

-Velatha|Female|Northern Saw-Whet Owl
-Isis|Female|Barn owl
-Specter|Male|Eastern Screech Owl
-Adonis|Male|Eurasian Eagle Owl
-Akio|Male|Great-Horned Owl

These are the leaders of the flock and will make all important decisions. They are the highest rank. They will be made responsible for misfortunes (leading the flock into barren lands, starvation, mayor problems) and killed or expelled from the flock. Than a new parliament will be chosen by vote from the flock. The members of the parliament may not mate or have younglings.


The cast
(Eagles; protectors) - 4/5

-Palpetta|Female|Pallas' Fish Eagle
-Amethyst|Female|American Bald Eagle
-Eren|Male|Steller's sea eagle
-Yurie|Male|Pallas' Fish Eagle
-

The general
(Eagle; leader of the cast; will be chose by vote by the cast) 0/1

-Hades|Male|Harpy Eagle

Their job is to protect the flock and kill all that try to prey upon them. While the eagles protect the colony they are looked upon with a mix of fear an awe. Their leader is the general and will take orders directly from the parliament.


The flight
(Hawks, falcons; scouts) - 5/5

-Hikari|Female|Hawk
-Falcina|Female|Peregrine Falcon
-Varis|Male|Red-Tailed Hawk
-Shadow Moon|Female|Peregrine Falcon
-Kara|Female|Northern Goshawk/ European Goshawk

When the flock is on the move the flight will be at the very front scouting a head and reporting back. They will be the ones to find shelter and the best places to hunt. When the flock is settled they will actively patrol the territory.


The murder
(Ravens, crows; killers) – 5/5

-Branwenn|Female|Brown-necked raven
-Onyx|Male|Common American Raven
-Pax|Female|White-necked raven
-Kuo|Male|Collared Crow
-Irda|Female|Little Raven

The murder is exclusively made up of crows and ravens. Ravens being bigger are of higher rank and will lead the murder. Their job is to put trouble makers back in line and to kill all ill, less the disease spreads. They may than eat their victims. While the murder may receive orders from the general or parliament they may also act of their own accord.


The colony
(All birds not occupying a rank; survivors) 3/10

-Angel|Female|Hawk
-Chouette|Female|Eastern Screech Owl
-Sharvane|Male|Gyrfalcon
-
-
-
-
-
-
-

The colony is the heart of the flock. This includes all beyond their prime, the very young or weak and parents. Both parents will take care of the young. Either the mother or father will stay with the youngling or eggs while the other will supply food. When the youngling is grown both parents can either stay in the colony or reclaim any rank they occupied before. Often birds will not join up in the ranks but stay with the colony. These birds are often looking for mates or a peaceful live.

Varis
Red-Tailed%20Hawk.jpg
Source


|Age|
20 years

|Gender|
Male

|Sexuality|
Heterosexual

|Rank|
The Flight

|Species|
Red-Tailed Hawk

|Weight|
2.7 pounds

|Wingspan|
51 inches

|Length|
52 cm

|Personality|
Varis tends to be the kind of hawk who usually is hard to get to know. He keeps many secrets to himself and he usually comes across in a state of depression. He can be protective and honest, but he usually doesn't share about how he sometimes loses his sanity. Around friends he struggles to blend in, and struggles to hold any tolerance for anything that will take too long. He takes faith in his duty, remaining calm whenever he sees something that is alerting. When he reports, he may miss small details, details that usually don't matter. He first goes on through big details, then later smaller details if he remembers them.

|History|
When Varis was young he was taken care of by his mother and father in the Western part of Montana. He lived on an open mountain next to a town that was taken over by humans. The humans didn't provide a threat which led them to be safe along the mountain side. Varis had longed to see the sunset since he had hatched, although was held back by his mother and father. They unfortunately lived on the side of the mountain to only where they could see the sun rise. The only hint of seeing the sunset was when the clouds turned amber or pink up in the clouds above. Before Varis was about ready to fly, his father left to go on a trip to find food near the forested mountains close to them. The next morning his father didn't return, worrying his mother and him himself. His mother told him to stay as she left to go in search for his father. Later in the afternoon, his mother returned with tears in her eyes. Just on the night before he were to fly he was told his father had died due to an accident. Sadness welled up in him and he didn't leave the nest for months. By the time he was fully grown, he had recovered from the sudden shock. Before he was about to fly off, he was told of a place that they had safety and shelter, and that the food was wonderful. He had agreed to find it, heading off towards where the sun had set, amazed at how the pink and orange glow had stained the skies as the sun set behind the mountains ahead. Long after he had left, he had found the place his mother had spoken of, finally finding a place where he could rest.
(It's almost 1:00 AM so it may be a little off ^^)

And the Red-Tailed Hawk was inspired by my dad who died because it was his favorite animal, so I couldn't wait to join this rp

Onyx


raven-flying-black-bird-2014-02-21_335.jAge ~
24 years old

Gender ~
Male

Sexuality ~
Straight

Rank ~
The murder

Species ~
Common American Raven

Weight ~
5 lbs

Wingspan ~
About 3.5 feet across

Length ~
28 inches

Personality ~
Onyx is a no nonsense, get-it-done kind of bird. He is also very confident in his killing abilities, because he is a very large crow. This usually leads him into trouble, because he will sometimes leap into situations before asking.

But when he is not killing or eating he can be a very caring bird, who cares for his friends. But, due to his head-strong attitude, he can be a bit rude, even if he doesn't mean too.

But when in presence of the Parliament or a higher ranked bird, he is respectful and tries not to be rude.

Appearance ~
{Image Above}

History ~
Onyx was hatched in a crowded nest, 2 brothers and 2 sisters, along with his mother and father. He was the oldest, and was also the biggest. His mother loved him and his four siblings, but his father had other opinions. His father would usually fly off for long periods of time, and not return for a very long time. When Onyx was about 4 years old, his father and mother had a big fight, in front of their own hatchlings.

Onyx's father flew off, leaving his mother to care for the five hatchlings by herself. But his mother did an acceptable job caring for the chicks. When Onyx was old enough and strong enough to fly, he would help his mother gather food for his siblings and help reinforce and expand their crowded nest.

Evantually, when Onyx was around 18, he decided to fly off and join the world. His mother was, of course, upset but let him leave. As Onyx was exploring, he found the colony of birds, led by a parliament of owls. Onyx joined and rose through the ranks, becoming a member of The Murder.

Other ~
- Peregrine

- He has 2 brothers/2 sisters. If anyone wants to play one, let me know :D

Name ~ Shadow Moon (usually goes by Shadow)

Age ~ 19

Gender ~ female

Sexuality ~ Straight

Rank ~ The Flight

Species ~ Peregrine Falcon

Weight ~ 1kg

Wingspan ~ 115 cm

Personality ~ Shadow is a very kind falcon, she's willing to help anyone, even if she knows she really shouldn't. She's a very loyal falcon, and if she betrays those close to her, something's not right. Although she has her sweet side, Shadow is pretty wicked with enemies and is very smart, tricking and playing mind games with enemies if she can. She is also a very good leader, very kind, and likes to joke, but will straighten up anyone who steps out of line.

Appearance ~ Shadow is a falcon with a dark grey back, that can sometimes look blue, and a white chest and belly. Her legs have stripes in the same dark grey colour as her back. She has glossy black eyes, which hold a lot of knowledge for her age.

History ~ As a hatchling, she was almost killed by a fox, but her older brother (from another clutch) swooped in and attacked the fox, then picked her up and flew away. Her parents didn't care she had gone missing, so her brother raised her. When she was roughly 10 years old, her brother left to hunt but didn't come back. She left and found the group she is with now, and is a reasonably experienced scout for her age.

Other ~ Peregrine

(oh and if anyone wants to be her possible mate/crush PM me)

:)

ScreenShot6712.jpg

Name ~ Specter.

Age ~ 23 years old.

Gender ~ Male.

Sexuality ~ Bisexual | Biromantic.

Rank ~ The Colony.

Species ~ Albino Eastern Screech Owl.

Weight ~ 6.8 oz.

Wingspan ~ 46 cm.

Length ~ 16 cm.

Personality ~ Specter is a soft-spoken owl who does his best to fit in. He is mildly reclusive and often won't be the first to approach or speak to someone else. He is a rather delicate bird and is not one prone to fighting, abhorring violence and unnecessary bloodshed. He has however taken an interest in healing and has secretly been trying to find a way around simply killing the ill despite the risk of potentially defying the Parliament in the process. Specter is rather confident in his abilities, but retains a high sense of modesty and doesn't feel the need to brag about his skills, often disliking it when other birds do so and also because healing doesn't seem to be an appreciated talent in this flock. His more negative traits include silently judging birds he doesn't agree with and bottling up his emotions, often leading to some pretty strong feelings of resentment.

History ~ Hatched in a clutch of three, Specter was the youngest and weakest of his brood. His unusual coloring made his parents uneasy and before long she was chased from the nest, left to fend for himself on the ground below. He was taken in by another colony member, a kindly Great Gray Owl called Flicker, who took pity on the small owlet. Specter grew to adulthood well under her watchful eyes, but proved exceptionally bad at most survival skills including hunting and combat. His pure white feathers made it hard to sneak up on prey. His tiny, frail body easily thrashed aside by larger birds during battle training. His failure was not from any lack of trying, but eventually Flicker and his other trainers gave up. Unable to join the ranks, he has remained with the colony under the guise of living a peaceful life. In reality, he is very bored.

Other ~Peregrine.

@Duna {Llamas love my hair} - Accepted! (Yay, more birds in the murder XD)

@Phoenix [WCU] - Accepted! I know you didn't always stick to the 5 sentences rule but you did right long ones so it's fine! :) Your link isn't working I think, if you need help finding some wonderful pictures that do her justice or making them appear on this site (not as a link) just ask me.

@Potato Lord [MAIN] - Accepted! What has you done? Why is you turning dire wolves into owls? O.o
Lovely pics by the way, slightly creepy at first but very beautiful. Isis is so gonna pick one her, cause she looks different. (I like her, just Isis not, she is a bitch) :P

Is that a GOT reference? xD I couldn't resist honestly. I was looking up references of albino animals for another character, saw this owl and was more or less like "hey...I saw a bird rp earlier right? Hello new oc."

Haha, that's fine with me! I noticed there are more females than males in here (I think?) so I'll try adding in another bird later if we're allowed more than one character.
