Windsonde: Orran

Name: Orran
Aery: Twistoult
Character Species Combination: Eurasian Tawny Owl (Strix aluco)/Siberian (Amur) Tiger (Panthera tigris altaica)
Rank: Young Gryphon
Gender: Male
Character Personality:
Awkward around most new faces, and rather shy as a result, young Orran usually prefers to keep to himself and his immediate family, and doesn't really have many friends. From an early age, Orran developed a keen interest in the wild flora flourishing in the Twistoult forests, and through trial and error and observation is teaching himself to cultivate plants - uprooting shrubs, collecting seeds, and planting them in a bed of earth he has collected in his quarters (to his mother's chagrin). So far his private garden has not been a great success, but he is learning with every experiment. If any youngster bothers to try to befriend the reclusive owlgryph, he or she will find a willing, cheerful, and loyal friend in Orran, albeit one whose chief topics of conversation include rare herbs and fruit, and the pollinating mechanisms of the beautiful dove-orchid, and other such things.

My first gryph character for ! I'll definitely be fleshing him out more as I complete the challenges and such for him. Excitement! He'll eventually grow out of his social awkwardness, for the most part at least, but for now he is a shy nerdy kid, with an interest in botany (which he won't grow out of). d'aww.
