~>Fury of the Wind<~ (A Bird RP) Character Page

Name: Cement
Age: 5 years
Gender: Female
Personality: Easygoing and generally accepting to all, regardless of their abilities as a fighter. Often takes time to just let her gang talk and fly. Has a reputation as being soft, but will, if needed, fight fiercely for her gang, who she considers her flock.
Cement is a quiet bird, but somehow that only enhances her commanding presence; she only speaks when she has something important to say, and those who hear her speak know that. She thinks a lot. She thinks much more than she talks. Under the surface, her mind is often in turmoil due to the hard decisions she has to make as gang leader, and now, as General. Her role is a stressful one, but she doesn’t show it; except to her devoted mate Russet, who is often the one bird who keeps her going.
Description: Dark gray with lighter patches (blue t-check) and missing half her middle toe on one foot.





(Drawings by @Amer )
Rank/Status: General/gang leader
Family (if significant): Suliver is her brother, though not many know
Mate: Russet
Chicks: none
History: Though she's friendly with her flockmates, she doesn't share her past with anybody that doesn’t already know it. Says she doesn't want to "trouble them with old problems".

However, her history is an interesting one.

Cement had a relatively normal chickhood, her brother Suliver ever by her side. When she was old enough, she, along with her brother, rushed to join the pigeon military, and became part of the unit (aka gang) led by a strategist named Wire. Things were going well, Cement survived battles against crows, ravens, and even gulls. She made good friends, and was generally respected, but felt no ambition for anything more.
One day, during what was thought to be an easy battle, disaster struck. The gang was ambushed by exotic birds called parrots, who were driven to violence after being forced out of their territory by the pigeon military. Cement was almost killed by one, but at the last second, a young pigeon she had befriended saved her life, and she only lost half a toe. However, Wire, her leader, died in the battle and they were forced to retreat.
Her brother, Suliver, became the new gang leader. But, with this new power, Cement started to see a change in her brother. What had previously been a sort of controlled coldness within him grew, until he was a harsh and ruthless leader, stopping at nothing to make sure his enemies— and anyone associated with them —were completely destroyed. One day, the same pigeon who had saved Cement’s life, Lightning, tried to prevent an enemy bird’s chicks from being killed. Suliver, enraged by this perceived betrayal, imprisoned Lightning and intended to make an example of her; but Cement helped her escape. After that, Cement could not return to Suliver’s gang, and went out on her own, disillusioned with gang life and the pigeon military. Some time later, after meeting other pigeons who had similarly deserted the military, Cement rejoined the pigeon military and took on a role of leadership in order to protect her friends, who were often the target of gang violence. That’s when she met Russet, whose story motivated her to do more for her flock and those she could help, and who she eventually fell in love with.
Other: this backstory may sound like I just came up with it, but it’s actually based on some short stories I wrote a while ago.

Name: Shard
Age: 3 years
Gender: Female
Personality: Strict and unfeeling. Has eyes that seem to bore right through you. Calculating and merciless in battle. Loyal to a fault to the pigeon military and the former General One-Toe. Suspicious of any birds that aren’t pigeons or are non-members. Brash and easily angered, and, if angered, will jump right into a battle even if her chances of winning are slim.
Description: Light brown and white pigeon (ash red t-check) with orange eyes
Rank/Status: former Lieutenant
Family (if significant): N/A
Mate: Dead
Chicks: None
History: Shard used to be a relatively easygoing gang leader, more interested in helping the other birds in her gang than fighting. But one day, as she was flying near the coast, she noticed a dead pigeon near the water. Coming closer, she realized that it was her beloved mate. She was absolutely devastated. As Shard examined him, she noticed wounds on his head. He'd been murdered.
Shard blamed the seagulls living nearby, but knew there was no way her small gang of untrained birds could possibly fight them. So, she fought and fought, becoming better and better at knowing just the right way to overwhelm her enemies. One-Toe eventually noticed and made her a lieutenant, and she launched a successful attack on the seagulls, leaving many dead.

Then, in one fight (which she started) with a seagull on the border, Shard’s entire life changed. Her wing was broken, and it didn’t heal right, leaving her flightless.

Now, with Lieutenants no longer needed and General One-Toe gone, Shard doesn’t know what to do. And, being grounded, her options are limited… who knows what the future holds for her?

Username: @AMERAUCANAS4REAL

Name: Russet
Age: 4 years
Gender: m
Personality: Rather friendly and outgoing. He was timid at a young age, but now will fight with admirable bravery, all in the name of Cement. Self-sacrificing and basically worships her. This might mislead you into thinking that he is humble, but he is very cocksure. He almost always has his crop puffed up. But now that he has had a healing crop injury he doesn't do it anymore. He is trying not to rip the stitches. He is a surprising judge of character for someone who appears to take nothing seriously. He hates anyone who could harm Cement. His personality is larger than life, just as he often tries to appear. So it's kinda hard to describe.
Description: Ash red bar pigeon. He is slightly larger than the average street pigeon. He is barrel-chested with a generally puffed crop and looser feathering with orange eyes. Probably has some baldhead roller in him. I describe him as orange but in reality, he is more of a russet color.



Rank/Status: gang member (Cement's gang)
Family (if significant): brother eaten by a night-stalker. Mother murdered by Sulliver's gang because of a discrepancy. Father's whereabouts unknown.
Mate: Cement
Chicks: none
History: Russet's family was in constant fear of the threat of Sulliver. Russet knew it wasn't safe. His father was already gone. His brother -of which he cared little for- was dead. When his mother was found dead, Russet was all alone. And he felt like a target.
He was reluctant to join a gang, but a clever young pigeon was assembling one. It wasn't about greed or anything. They felt safe with each other. They fought for each other. One day he shyly asked if she would be his mate. He expected her to turn him down. Amazingly, she said yes. That was the last time he was shy in his life. Now Russet is one of the "veterans" in the gang and fights with loyalty and bravery. Ever since he and Cement paired, they were the ultimate power couple. Russet is the social, outgoing one. She is the quiet, calculating one.

Other: Used to secretly hope that her mother was still alive, but now doesn't care either way, blaming her for abandoning her and her sister, which eventually led to her sister's death.

Name: Nanako
Nickname: Nana
Age: 2 yr
Gender: Female
Personality: nana is a spirited and high strong young pigeon who loves racing and competition. She is usually peppy, but fears abandonement and being abandoned due to her owners actions. She doesnt like being bossed around, but isnt a leader either. Shes free willed and spirited as well. She hates the taste of typical bird seed, except sunflower seed, and loves the taste of bread.

Rank/Status: loner
Family (if significant): doesnt know them.
Mate: none
Chicks: none
History: nanako was actually born in captivity. She was born to two famous racer pigeons, so obviously, her owner trained her to race as well. As soon as she was born, she was raised by hand by her human. She was entered in her first race about half a year ago, but hecause she lost, by being attacked by and chased off course by an eagle that took her toe in the process, her human abandoned her in the middle of the wilderness when she returned to him. She has been on her own since then, except the two times that she encountered the pigeon clan.
Other: she came to the city only recently.

Personality: Dane is a curious pidgeon who's loyal and sweet.

Name: Nickel
Age: 7 months
Gender: m
Personality: bright, chirpy, curious, smart, seems to be immune to somewhat dangerous situations, observant, thrifty
Description: small, solid dark grey pigeon with a whitish tail and underbelly I believe it is called a T-Check pattern.

Rank/Status: non-member
Family (if significant): no one really knows where Nickel came from, or how he can survive when he's wandering through dangerous territory like the junkyard and Suliver's alley, nor do they know why he is so familiar with the city and the birds in it when they don't pay close enough attention to become familiar with who he is himself. But its been generally decided by everyone he's met that his parents had been killed by some gang or another or some such calamity. And anyways, no one really cares.
Mate: none
Chicks:none
History: Again, Nickel is a mystery. Associated with Blizzard.
Other: I don't plan to use him in interactions much except to throw him randomly at people.

Name: One-Toe
Age: 5 years
Gender: Female
Personality: Fierce, cold, and calculating. Ethics? Morals? Who has time for all that? Certainly not One-Toe! She didn’t bother thinking about the consequences of her choices as long as the pigeon military thrived. She was confident and full of herself and her power, which has now all but evaporated.
Description: Darker gray pigeon (blue t-check) with only one toe
Rank/Status: former General, now disgraced and alone… or is she?
Family (if significant): N/A
Mate: An unimportant lieutenant
Chicks: Open. General One-Toe doesn't have time to raise her chicks, so allows other pigeons to raise them (usually her mate).
History: No one knows. It is rumored that she lost her toes in a battle with a gull.
Other: One-Toe was almost assassinated by Suliver’s hawk, but managed to escape with a broken wing and injured leg. Now, she may have found new alliances, those of which may not have the best interests of the pigeon military in mind…

History: entirely what you’d expect
She probably won’t be very relevant to the plot.
Other: I kinda forgot gulls don’t nest in winter so realistically she shouldn’t be nesting so I’m trying to think of a different excuse.
Actually she doesn’t need one. She just didn’t want to go fight.
Anyway some of her lines are based on this video:

Username: Amer

Name: Ritz Crackers (but friends call him Ritz)
Age: 5
Gender: male
Personality: Outgoing, but only if you are within the reaches of his friends and family group. He’s on the quieter side but he used to be quite void of any mystery. Ever since he fell in with Fish Sticks, however, his life has gotten quite complicated. It definitely proved to be a challenge for a bird who used to be as clear as a glass of water.
He is pretty shallow, but not a glass half empty kind of guy, pressing the metaphor further.
He spends more time on the water than the average gull. He is unlikely to accept food from human hands, being the unadventurous, homey, and clingy sort. This just ain't your average parking lot "sea gull."
Description: small, with a black head, grey wings, a white underside, and red feet. I saw these in real life before. Look up "Bonaparte's gull" he's pretty typical.
Rank/Status: just your average Bonaparte's gull. Not many gulls of other species in his flock, but a few
Family (if significant): yes, and he knows them all by name
Mate: no
Chicks: no
History: he only ate human food once—a Ritz Cracker. He was so proud, and he loved the name so much, he named himself after it.
