?Taeliyion Ridge (Semi-Literate Owl RP, Map, Needing Members)?

[Zodiac]

The wind seared at your feathers. Your wings were stiff with frost. How much longer? The blizzard had been raging for hours after hours. "How could anyone live like this?" You grumble. This wasn't paradise, as you were told. You were told that there was a warm and lush woodland on the Taeliyion Mountain's summit. But the raging blizzard gave no signs of a "warm woodland". Stupid feather-brained great greys.
   An hour later of tiring flight, a shape moved in the corner of your eyes. Was the shape getting closer? Yes it was. Soon, the shape had hooted an order to land. Sighing, you obey and give a clumsy landing, thanks to the blizzard. Finally, you give a short survey of the shape. It was a great horned owl, Bubo virginianus, maybe a female but she was rather small. "I am Zodiac," The great horned owl spoke. "What brings you here?" You were lost for words, but the owl spoke for you. "Ahh, lost in the blizzard? No worries, follow me."

Taeliyion Ridge is a literate, semi-realistic, owl RP. There are three clans of owls all living in the snowy mountains of Taeliyion Ridge. The first clan is a clan called "Bubo Strigiformes". Bubo Strigiformes contain members of the bubo owl family, also known as "horned owls". This clan is typically thick-feathered and ready for any kind of blizzard. They live in the few trees of Taeliyion Ridge.
   The second clan of owls is the Tyto Tytoninae. The Tyto Tytoninae clan contain members of the tyto owl family, also known as the heart-shaped face owls. They have a thin coat of feathers and live in the caves of Taeliyion Ridge. The Tyto Tytoninae clan takes the most use of fire in the mountains.
  The final clan of owls is the Micrathene Athene. The Micrathene Athene clan contians most of the small owls of Taeliyion Ridge. They are medium-feathered and reside near small trees next to lakes. Their main prey are fish and occasionally mice. Micrathene Athene is known for their incredible speed.

7. No mary/gary-sues, powers, powerplaying, or godmodding.
8. Semi literate only please. Two sentences per post, but an exception when it comes to talking. Good example: The young snowy owl's semi-spotted white feathers ruffled in the freezing ridge.

Plot


A group of rouge birds have moved into Taeliyion Ridge. They have been stealing prey from other clans, leaving the clans to blame each other. The owls can sense a war coming, because of these rouges. (These rouges are playable)

.::Description::.  Keliea is a very hard-headed reddish-brown Micrathene whitneyi, with a hint of authority. She can be stubborn at times and demands a high level of authority, even due to her size. Despite this, she is very open to the trusted. Otherwise, in general she is a stubborn and authority-seekng elf owl with the appearence of Gylfie in Gaurdians of Ga'hoole, except that her plumage is of a darker color and her underbelly is not white; it is a lighter color. Her eyes are also different, a combination of blue-greens, hazels, and crimson reds. And, despite her size, she can kill a Bubo Strigiformes any time she wants to; she uses her build-up of stamina to tire her opponent before she goes for the throat. She may not be the fastest Micrathene Athene you've seen.
