Name: Otis Tan Arillo
Age: 16
Race: Strigidae Beastkin
Nationality: Silvan

Personality
Otis is a studious young man, one who studies hard out of a love of discovery. The world he lived in was once so small, and now, it has expanded infinitely, brilliantly. Thoughtful but reckless, he puts theory to the test as often as possible, and has a skeptic’s mind when it comes to accepting any particular piece of knowledge. After all, what could one truly say about the cause of lightning, when thunderbirds actually do exist? A myriad of truths exist, and Otis wishes to pursue them all, weaving a tapestry of information into his mind that comprises of natural logic and supernatural wisdom. Science is an art, in and of itself, and even the most minute details can hold in them secrets yet uncovered.

It is that obsession with detail though, that makes Otis a bit insufferable at times. When he asks questions, it’s in a barrage. When he works on something, he’s a perfectionist. When he studies, he doesn’t discard any detail. Intuition and instinct, to Otis, is only guessing, and guessing brings forth unpredictability that can otherwise be controlled for. And if there’s one thing that he doesn’t like, it’s the inconsistency where there shouldn’t be any. If someone promises something, he expects them to fulfill their promise. If someone has done something once, he expects them to be able to do it again. That harshness is doubled onto himself. Though failure is alright, Otis does not ever want to let that stand. He’s not insane. He’s just stubborn and prideful, a child beneath that veneer of maturity.

Otis also gets weirdly competitive over video games. Perhaps because programming ‘should’ be more consistent than reality.

Backstory
The Strigidae clan had been, on paper, one of the clans in Fabula Silva that should have had more political influence and military power than they did. After all, they took their namesake from owls, creatures capable of silent flight and nighttime operations, with the customary physical might that all avians possessed. In theory, they should have had the advantages of both the Zagara and the Aquilus, and the ancient tales of their forebearers did indeed point to such might. The reality though, was that they had neither. Somewhere along the way, the Strigidae lost their wings and their talons; only their brilliant eyes and neck flexibility remained. No one knew why, but no one remembered when the Strigidae clan last possessed wings either. All that they were now was another minor vassal clan to the Aquilus, their nocturnal habits making them good sentries at when the moon rose, one stuck between the realms of day and night.

It was there that Otis Tan Arillo was born, the child of nest guard and a weaver. Curiosity had always been the core behind his actions, something that had both endeared him to his parents as well as caused them plenty of headaches. He had loved to sit beside his mother as she worked her craft, and he had loved poking his head to places that had been expressly declared as off-limits for fledglings such as himself too. Something more existed in the world, something that no one around him had answers to, beyond vague allusions to myths and tradition. In a forest that was always changing and always growing, the fact that no one could bring any certainty to why things were had always bothered Otis, and that continued to poke and prod at him. Perhaps if he had stayed in his clan, that irritation would have been buried eventually by the more immediate demands of life.

But he didn’t. On a humid day, a traveller from another world passed through the Arboreal Valley. A botanist, studying the foreign flora of the lush valley, trying to make it through the language barrier of the beastkins through gesticulations and approximations of speech. They were a silly, weak individual, dressed in boring, mass-produced clothing that denoted neither lineage nor profession, but Otis was drawn to them by the certainty and excitement in their voice, by their desire to explore everything the same way that they did. And, perhaps too, by how they could cast forward bolts of lightning without an inkling of magical ability. He stuck with the researcher for as long as they were in that particular section of the woods, and once they left, Otis went the other way, squawking at his parents until he wore them out through sheer stubbornness and they came up with a compromise.

He would get his rudimentary education in Maxillius Arcture, as well as the requisite vaccinations for otherworld travel, and only transfer over to Silver Gate Academy after he became of age.

So that’s exactly what Otis did.
