~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.
