Aoibheann

Backstory
Aoibheann originates from the Elemental Plane of Air, where he lives amongst his tribe. Having come of age, he went into military service as is expected of him. During an expedition into the material plane to test and develop manoeuvrability for his squadron, they were forced to land and take shelter due to unfavourable conditions. Subsequently, they were captured by bandits, their flight feathers torn from their bodies, the squadron sold apart as oddities or slaves.

Months later, Aoibheann was liberated from the camp at which he was held after a militia raided the bandits' camp. Furious, his mind addled having been flightless and caged for so long, not one bandit survived to see a prison cell. Owing a debt to those who freed him, Aoibheann went into the service of the militia, vowing to liberate captives of any kind, reunite his squadron, and put to death any who would unjustly confine another.

Trivia

 * Aoibheann still can't fly since his flight feathers were pulled out of him, and he is awaiting their regrowth. He can flap his wings for a momentary gain to aid climbing, but he cannot generate meaningful continuous upward thrust.


 * Aoibheann likes shiny things. Aoibheann takes shiny things. Shiny things make Aoibheann and the places Aoibheann lives pretty.


 * Aarakocra punctuate speech with chirps as non-verbal language. Aoibheann can tend to caw, squawk or screech when emotional.


 * Aarakocra are not unlike birds. Aoibheann will ruffle his feathers, stretch his wings broadly, preen, sleep on one leg, and toy with things at his whim. When more excited or agitated, he may also tear things to pieces, roll around on the ground, hang upside down from things, yell, or bob up and down.
