Éimhín

Image Source: N/A


Name: Éimhín (EH-veen), nicknamed 'Eiv'.


Species: Talking Beast - Male White Owl


Height: 3'10"


Age: Young (Human Approximation: Mid - Late Teens)


Build: Dwarf-sized and Owly


Strengths:

Intellect & Eidetic Memory: Possessed of a prodigious strength of mind, Éimhín knows a great deal and forgets so very little, but this cannot necessarily be mistaken for wisdom... a thing that the son of the wise old owl Árón could grow into, given time, and the quieting of some of his verbal habits.

Camouflage: With the land of Narnia blanketed in perpetual winter, Éimhín is at a distinct advantage due to his largely snowy plumage, becoming whiter with each passing mote of time as the dark brown barring of his youth slowly gives way to the purest white.

Species Advantages: Following a crepuscular activity pattern, Éimhín has excellent low-light and daylight vision. Additionally, his hearing is far superior, giving him the ability to detect a wide range of noises that most can't hear. Also, as an owl he has long, soft feathers, giving him soundless, stealthy flight.


Weaknesses:

Pedantry and Cheekiness: A side-effect of knowing so, so much is that Éimhín has the reflexive (and to some, annoying) habit of correcting others even when utterly unnecessary, though he tries his hardest to keep his beak clapped shut with the verbal missteps of his elders, out of respect. In addition to this, he possesses a fair bit of cheek sometimes, and can be heard using 'names' on others that have some basis in truth... even if not the nicest.

Mostly Bottomless Pit: Éimhín is, more often than not, hungry, for he is still very much a growing young owl. This hunger can sometimes reach the point of distraction, and irritability.


Allegiance: Loyal Narnian, like his father, and his father before him, and so on.


Home: Wanderer, mostly, but tends to frequent the Lantern Wastes, and pokes around Stormness Head from time to time.


Special Skills: Possibly an extension of his superior hearing, Éimhín can sort false words from truth with ease.


Weapons of Choice: Talons. Beak, sometimes.


History: Be as concise or as long-winded as you like; it's your character.
