Description: A barred owl who's build is more for agility than brute strength, Aaron is on the brown side of his species, his main plumage colors being a dark brown oak color, though his underside is more of a nutty beige color, copper feathers forming a slight border between oak and tan. His eyes are a dark amber, and their piercing gaze gives total attention to what it is fixed on, be it owl or prey, he is not one for giving you half of his attention. His beak is yellow, as are his talons.
Personality: A spirited fun loving owl, Aaron has always been one for lighting up dark situations with humor, or a thoughtful remark. He is rather reckless at times, acting on impulse and thinking things through not as often as he should. Thankfully the Barred Owl seems to have only the best intentions at heart, but some wish he'd learn to listen to elders and superiors a little more, instead of just doing what he comes up with. Aaron is rather imaginative in his planning, so what he comes up with could be considered either genius or just plain yoicks. He is a lover of science, but has a few beliefs that focus on things that can not be proven.
Strengths: Optimism, Loyalty, Battleclaws,
Weaknesses: Stubbornness, Speaking before thinking, Larger weapons
History: Eric was the youngest chick of two Barred owls, his father a burly fellow named Albroc and his mum a more willowy creature who's name was Eveilya, born during the last dregs of summer. The pair had been blest with two daughters and three sons before Aaron. Thus h two siblings where still in the nest were his elder brother and sister, Valdren and Yaletha. Valdren was a rough and tumble owl, and Aaron and Yaletha often had to talk him out of flying when their parents were not at home. But Valdren also instilled his impulsive and roll with the punches nature on his brother, and the pair had plenty of misadventures together. Yaletha was more of the quiet type, a extremely bright owl and kind enough to cover up for her misbehaving siblings. Their mother was a fine storyteller and she filled their dreams and gizzards with the tale of yore, and they seemed to have the greatest effect on Aaron. For two moons of his life, Aaron knew only the joys and sorrows that come living with family. It was a happy time, violently shattered one night when just around tweener a forest fire began in earnest, devouring many trees, including the cottonwood loved so dearly by the Strix family. The owlets escaped, though they all had some singed feathers they had bigger problems. Their parents were no were to be found, and no matter were they looked, nobody could find them. The trio managed to take refuge in the hollow of their adult sibling Codran and his mate Shelby. His two siblings were content, and as was he for awhile. A moon or so after the fire, the family was devastated when one of Conrad's chicks was snatched by a St. Aggie's patrol.The owlet in question had been his favorite, a plucky little female named Renza, and when she was taken Aaron attempted to fight them off, but because of his lack of knowledge, was unable to do so. Furious at himself for being so useless when he was needed most, he decided to fly out in search of the owls that he knew could be a way for him to make a difference, the Guardians of Ga'hoole. The journey was not easy, as it began in the shadow forest, it took much time through territory he was unfamiliar with to get to the cape of glaux. A south eastern wind blew him off course into the beaks, and he a run in with a fox that set him back three tail feathers. However, Aaron eventually molted enough for the lost plumage to be replaced and using the advice he had received from the local owls arrived at the island of Hoole, tired, but eager to help. After some time he was tapped for Search and Rescue, and has been trying his best since than to be of use, and prove to himself that he is worthy of the order he held in such high regard, and secretly hopes he can make it up to Renza, the chick he couldn't save.

Other: Roleplay Example:
Flying through the lower edges of a pleasant sea born breeze, a barred owl flaps his oaken wings, suddenly riveting on a vole not to far bellow him. Hunting for Aaron is often an exercise is precision, allowing him to work on his flying without there being any pressure, and plenty of time to practice. Flying as silently as he is capable of, Aaron angles his dark brown wings downward. Waiting until he precisely where he wishes to be, the owl goes into a sharp, swift dive, almost free falling through the air until the very last moment possible, were he sticks out all eight of his golden rain yellow talons and snatches the prey up, biting it with his beak at the base of it's neck so that it dies quickly with the least amount of noise. The plump grey rodent is now still, and he lights down once more, though with far more care and less speed know that a quick strike is no longer necessary. The moon shines evenly over the water, and in this moment of brief piece in his busy life, Aaron allows himself a moment of quiet, before stepping out into the air, to bring his bounty back home.
