Introduction Welcome, all!
My name is Aurrie Beaues, Ruler of Hamsters and Queen of Fish! It is a pleasure! -bows-
I've been bumming around Gaia for quite a while, now, and am a usual resident at the Forest of Noctua. I plan on making The Roost my second home! This journal is set up to keep track of all of the members of my own little flock and to keep my roleplays in line.
If ever you want to chat, drop me a line! I do enjoy a conversation!

Yield on Green  Aurrie's Note:Yield on Green was my first pidge and was won in an arpee contest! I feel bad for her, yet at the same time I admire her steadfast determination in trying to give Pebble the best possible life, despite the fact that she is a single mother and her little chick is a cross breed between foggy and coffee.
Background Information Name: Yield on Green Nicknames: Yield Name Meaning: You better watch out when the light turns green, 'cos you might get hit by the big metal monsters... D: Date of Birth:Mate: N/A (It was, at one time, Oxford) Parents: N/A Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: Pebble (Daughter) AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: White and Gray Beak Color: Dark Gray Body Pattern: She has gray and white spots on various portions of her body Wing Color: White with gray tips on her flight feathers Inked: None Items: None Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Yield on Green came from a rather quiet, quaint little flock quite a ways away from the flock she resides with currently. There were farms, huge yards, livestock, you name it. Her life before Oxford and Pebble had been rather comfortable and unremarkable, if you exclude the death of her father at the claws of a tomcat, on the farm where they resided. Her mother knew trouble when she saw it fly in on coffee colored wings. Oxford was, to her, the death of her daughter. The smooth talking male wooed Yield and skipped town as soon as Yield laid their daughter. Not only had the young pidge bred randomly with a male who had promised her the world, he was a male of another type. Her mother, as well as the rest of the flock, shunned her and as soon as she could, she left with her young daughter. Fortunately, after passing through many roosts, they came to live in Baker's flock. Personality: Even when she was a chick, she was rather headstrong and steadfast. She usually had a clear mind and was rather sharp, so it was very out of the ordinary that she fell for Oxford. Although she was shunned by her family, she does not regret mating with the coffee male, as she loves her daughter more than anything or anyone in the world. Her feelings are extremely guarded and it is rare that she opens up to any pidge. Skills: She's rather adept at finding little bits of useful material and is rather bright, despite past mishaps. When her heart isn't being ground under paw, she can be a quick and clever pidge.
Acquaintances Acquaintances:Baker: Baker was kind enough to let Yield and her little Pebble join his flock. He is of mixed type, too, and none in his flock would dream of talking down to her or her daughter. Gay Pride Parade: Pride is probably Yield's closest and most trusted friend. He is the only soul she feels comfortable discussing past events with. Nintendo Gamecube: A sneaky, sneaky thief from Half Price's flock. She wants to trust him and has feelings for him, but at the same time fears that trusting him will break her heart, like when she trusted Oxford. Pebble: Pebble has grown into a fine young pidge! Yield cannot help but to be proud of her daughter. She is fiercely protective over her, in hopes of saving her from the life her mother had had.

Waffle House  Aurrie's Note: I purchased Waffle House through a donation for the benefit to birds of prey, a while back. I luff him, he's all fluffy! <3 He is a German Owl Pigeon!
Background Information Name: Waffle House Nicknames: Waffle, Waff Name Meaning: A place with big, black letters on yellow! The air smells good near there and you can pick tasty crumbs off the ground by the dumpster. <3 Date of Birth:Mate: On the Rocks Parents: Two German Owls that belonged to the two-legs Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: - Beware of Dog (daughter) - Jack Rabbit Slim's (daughter) AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: White and Gray Beak Color: Tan Body Pattern: He is mostly white, with dark gray on his wings and back Wing Color: Gray, with white flight feathers (two of the feathers on his left wing are black) Inked: His flight feathers on his wings are tipped with orange and green Items: He wears green tinted glasses, a long scarf that is white, green, and orange, and always carries a pen with him! Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Waffle House led a rather peculiar life before he came to live in Happy Hour's flock! The young German Owl Pigeon had been the only child of two captive pet pigeons. Unlike his parents, he had the makings of a pidge and learned rather quickly. He had to know what made everything tick, so it was only appropriate that he became an inventor once finding a flock. The only other creature with the two-legged pink beings that could slate his thirst for knowledge was the big, green Quaker parrot that was a family pet. The bird was loud and rather obnoxious, but Waffle fell head over paws for her at a young age and she was almost like a mother to him. She taught him about the human electronics and the human behaviors that he witnessed day to day... And he learned to speak Quaker, instead of Pidge. His speech is poor, but he is quickly picking up on words in an attempt to stay in touch with his new flock. Personality: Waffle House is a sharp minded fellow with a want to learn that can never seem to be satisfied. He isn't exactly well versed in survival in the wild, however. Fortunately, he hasn't run into anything that could hurt him too badly and he knows to flee if he sees a cat or dog, but in general, he is bold and fearless, only because he doesn't know any better. He'll try anything once, if only to know what exactly will happen. Skills: Tinkering, really. He'll fiddle with human devices and has a keen knowledge on how they work. <3
Acquaintances Acquaintances:On the Rocks: Rocks is his best friend in the whole wide world! She took the time to stay with him and tries to speak with him, even though he makes rather strange sounds, instead of the coos of a pidge. He is extremely fond of her. Zorba the Greek: Zorba isn't fond of him at all. The nanny has always kept a close watch on his adopted daughter and then he found this strange pidge with her, in his nest!

Zorba the Greek  Aurrie's Note: Zorba is my luff! <3 He's sort of like a southern belle at times, even though he is definitely male. He's got himself a southern accent and he is on the prissy side!
Background Information Name: Zorba the Greek Nicknames: Zorba Name Meaning: It's a little hole in the wall in a big building with lots of little stores in it! Good smells come from there and it serves food. The baklava is the best! Date of Birth:Mate: Gay Pride Parade Parents: Stop and Wal-Mart, both deceased Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: N/A AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: Dark and light gray Beak Color: White Body Pattern: He is mostly dark gray, with a lighter gray around his eyes Wing Color: His wings are the same color gray as his body, but the flight feathers are a deep, rich green with ornate green swirls Inked: His wing feathers and tail feathers are dark green with light green swirls Items: He wears a matching green shawl with a fluffy white collar Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Zorba's life has been rather uneventful, which is just how he likes it. The nanny loves the quiet, dainty life that he has lived in Happy Hour's roost, above the church. He was hatched a little ways off to his parents, Stop and Wal-Mart, and was quickly attracted to the songs and bells of the little church and sought to make himself a member of the flock that roosted there. He serves as the nanny and is quite pleased with that position. He adores little ones and has a fondness for his adopted daughter, On the Rocks. Personality: He likes cleanliness, which can be a problem when watching chicks, but he handles them well and loves what he does. He doesn't like to get too dirty, but does love a romp outside of the roof once and a while. Mostly, he would rather just straighten up about the roost and gossip with the seamstresses. Skills: He was the first nanny for Happy Hour's flock and does his job well, even though there are few chicks there at the time.
Acquaintances Acquaintances:On the Rocks: Oh, how the little lost chick has grown! Zorba is immensely proud of his "daughter" and knows she will go far in life. Gay Pride Parade: Pride is Zorba's love, plain and simple. The nanny is a little on the clingy and jealous side, but he trusts Pride with his heart and life. Nocturnal:She is a rather eerie pidge and what is more unsettling, Rocks loves and looks up to her! The witch was Rock's mentor, but Zorba is still nervous around her. Waffle House: He's a freak, plain and simple! The scruffy fellow can hardly speak anything understandably, let alone take care of himself! He had better watch himself around Rocks, that is for sure.

Red Light  Aurrie's Note: I won Red in a color contest a good while back! I luff him much! <3
Background Information Name: Red Light Nicknames: Red Name Meaning: When the light turns red, you stop! Date of Birth:Mate: Daimlyer Parents: N/A Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: N/A AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: A sort of coffee, reddish-brown color Beak Color: Tan with red, yellow, and orange ink Body Pattern: He is a reddish-brown hue with a yellow and orange band around his neck, legs, and tail Wing Color: His wings are the same color as is body, but the flight feathers are dyed to match the collar around his neck and legs Inked: His wing feathers, tail feathers, and around his neck and legs are dyed yellow and orange Items: N/A Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Red Light was hatched in the very abandoned factory that serves as Big Ma's roost and lives there to this day, proudly patrolling the grounds in an attempt to serve his flock well. He is loyal to a fault, so it killed him inside to find out that his chosen mate was a member of Baker's flock and had lied to him. He is determined to stay with her and keep things right, as well as serving his flock. Personality: He is young and brash, but wants to do what is right for his flock and hopefully his future family. He thirsts for adventure and loves to mingle with other flocks, with the exception of Baker's. They are his sworn enemy. Skills: He has a sharp eye and is good at watching, even if his landings are really rough!
Acquaintances Acquaintances:Dai He loves her more than life itself, even though she belonged to Baker's flock. He tells himself she didn't know any better...

The Harvest  Aurrie's Note: Harvey is luff, too! <3 He loves attention and loves to flirt, as well!
Background Information Name: The Harvest Nicknames: Harvey Name Meaning: It's the title of a song he heard while living over the garage Date of Birth:Mate: N/A Parents: N/A Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: N/A AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: Dark and light gray Beak Color: Light gray Body Pattern: He is dark gray, with his stomach and legs being light gray Wing Color: His wings are a much darker gray than most him him, with the exception of his back, an dhis feathers are tipped with light gray bars Inked: He has silver little swirls on the back hif his neck and on the top of his wings Items: N/A Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: The Harvest had modest beginnings in the garage space of a two-leg family, where his parents lived amongst other little birds and whatnot. They were both from Baker's flock and had studied enough to speak rather fluently with corvids, but sought a quieter start for their little ones, rather than staying on the bridge. Harvey's start really ended up not being all that quiet, as the two-leg fledgling had taken to listening to loud music and while Harvey's mother and father hated it, the little corvid speaking pidge was fascinated. He remained there long after his parents decided to move on and only came to join Baker's flock after the two-leg family moved. He serves as both a Whisperer and an Entertainer and keeps a stage in the neutral territory, where he works to provide music to the pidge that happen to stop there. Personality: The Harvest is a flirt and loves the males just as much as the females, which has made keeping a steady relationship rather difficult for the young batchelor. He loves attention, practically craves it, which is part of the reason he does more than just chat with crows and whatnot. He likes to sing and mingle with other pidge. Lately he's had odd feelings for a certain other Entertainer in Baker's flock. He likes her enough to try and stop being so flirtatious with others. Skills: He mostly performs for other pidge, but he is fluent in corvid, so can translate for others.
Acquaintances Acquaintances:Daimler: She was a wonderful star charter... It's a shame she had to go and be a traitor, with that hideous red painted fellow from Big Ma's. Who knows what secrets she might of spilled to them! Chorus Line: She's... Well, there is something most beautiful about her! She's funny and sweet and, well, Harvey is head over paws for her.

Merry  Aurrie's Note: Merry was won in a Christmas raffle, thanks to Rei! -snuggles Rei-
Background Information Name: Merry Nicknames: Mer, Glitter Feather Name Meaning: Merry Christmas is Merry's favorite time of year, so he named himself after it! Date of Birth:Mate: N/A Parents: N/A Siblings: N/A Half Siblings: N/A Offspring: N/A AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: Coffee brown, with a creamy face, throat, tail, and wingfeathers Beak Color: Orange Body Pattern: He is mostly that rich, brown hue, but his creamy color counterbalances that on his face, neck, wings, and tail Wing Color: His wings are brown, with the exception of his flight feathers. They are creamy, with red and pink bands inked across them, near the tips Inked: He has a glittery appearance to his wings and red and silver orbs have been painted there. He also has red and pink bands across his flight and tail feathers Items: He has a red ribbon tied around his right leg and often carries a sprig of mistletoe with a red ribbon wrapped around it's stem Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Merry was hatched and raised in Half Price's flock and has witnessed first hand how the rift has grown deep and wide between both the upper and lower class. Despite the strife and hardship of survival, he has managed to maintain a cheery, bright disposition and will willingly help a pidge in need. He and his closest friend, Nintendo Game Cube, run a band of thieves on the poor side of the flock. They hold their standards very high and follow a "steal from the rich and give to the poor" motto. Most of their stolen goods go to help the chicks and unfortunate pidge that have fallen on hard times. Personality: He tends to be on the jolly side, hence his name. He loves brightly colored ribbons, charms, or anything that might be eye catching. He has sticky claws and has thrived as a thief for all of his short life and continues to do so to help provide for the poor lowerclass. Skills: Merry comes off as the friendly and trustworthy sort, though he could rob you blind and not give it a second thought.
Acquaintances Acquaintances:Nintendo Game Cube: Nin's pretty much like Merry's brother. The two grew up together and run a band of thieves on the wrong side of the tracks. He trusts Nintendo completely. Black Mesa: He does not trust her at all. She is friends with Nin, but Merry refuses to stay near her and wants her out of the band. Mozilla Firefox: Moz is an old friend of both Nintendo and Merry. Mer can't help but to enjoy her shows and infectious laughter.

Mozilla Firefox  Aurrie's Note:
Background Information Name: Mozilla Firefox Nicknames: Moz, Mozzy, or Firefox Name Meaning: None, really. Taken from Mozilla Firefox, 'cos it so beats Internet Explorer. <3 Date of Birth: August 28th Mate: n/a Parents: n/a Siblings: n/a Half Siblings: n/a Offspring: n/a AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: Darky brownish-grayish Beak Color: Dark Gray Body Pattern: Her body is the same tone all over, with the exception of her first three flight feathers, which are permanently stained with soot and ink, and her top and back are slightly darker than her main body color. Wing Color: Her wings are the same hue as her body, excluding her stained and inked feathers. Inked: First three feathers on each wing are painted and stained black, and the rest of the flight feathers are painted orange and yellow. She also has a red stripe painted over each eye. Items: She carries a book of matches on a chain around her neck and is almost always playing with a lit one. She also wears orange tinted glasses. Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Mozilla Firefox was one of the many unfortunate chicks born on the wrong side of the tracks in Half Price's train station and had found herself abandoned at an early, early age. Fortunately for her, she had been taken in and raised up by a nanny and it was in her early seasons that she met and became best of friends with Nintendo Gamecube. Unlike him, she has no musical inclination. Instead, her art consists of fire. Ever since she was old enough, the young Lahore was entirely facinated by the smoking Two-Legs. They had this little stick that they struck and it glowed so beautifully... Of course, then they put it to the white stick and it made this horrible smelling smoke that burned her lungs, which made watching the matches most difficult. One particular evening, she happened upon a matchbook and didn't hesitate to swipe it. She took them home and begged Nintendo to watch, so he could see the beautiful flames. She struck one of the many matches and, as she had no experience, the flames engulfed her feathers. They flared up quickly and if she hadn't thrown herself as hard as she did into the blankets that she kept in her nest, her whole wing might of been burnt to a crisp. Instead of dying a horrible, flaming death, she found herself stuck in her nest until her flight feathers grew back. It was all rather embarassing and could of cost her her life. So what did she do now, with her lesson well learned? She struck another match, but this time carefully. Since her rather dangerous ordeal, she has taught herself how to use the flames to her own advantage and often uses them in small, simple tricks to entertain the flock. She is a member of the band of thieves, but really does spend most of her time entertaining as a distraction for others. Personality: Firefox is well aware of the saying curiosity killed the cat and she will promptly add that curiosity claims many pidge, as well, she almost included. Ever since she was young, she found herself drawn like a moth to flame, which is most unfortunate, seeing as feathers are highly flamable. She is skilled in her craft, although it nearly killed her at a young age, and performs for those of high class and low, without descrimination. She tends to jump into new things with both feet and is loud, and a bit of a joker, but she isn't dumb. She would have to be quick and fast thinking to master the fire and she isn't about to let herself catch again. Skills: She is extremely skilled with lighting matches and "breathing" fire for her pidge audiences, but she has to be extremely careful while doing it. She often serves as a distraction and performs with Nintendo, giving the other thieves the opportunity to steal from spectators.
Acquaintances Acquaintances:Nintendo Game Cube: Nintendo is practically Firefox's brother, although the two aren't blood related. They grew up together and it was Nintendo who had been there when she had caught her wing on fire. Her trust for him runs deep. Merry: Merry is a good friend of Nin's, so he is a good friend of Firefox. She likes him well enough and the three work well together in the band.

Jack Rabbit Slim's Aurrie's Note:
Background Information Name: Jack Rabbit Slim's Nicknames: Jack Name Meaning: It's a fictional 1950s-themed restaurant from Pulp Fiction, though there are a few real bars and restaurants by that name. Date of Birth: 31/01 Mate: n/a Parents: On the Rocks and Waffle House Siblings: Beware of Dog, Pickwick Bookshop Half Siblings: n/a Offspring: n/a AppearenceEye Color: Black Body Color: White and light grey Beak Color: Pale tan Body Pattern: White, with grey in a widow's peak on her head and down her back Wing Color: White, with gray flight feathers Inked: None Items: None Theme Song: ---
Past Details BackgroundHistory: Jack Rabbit Slims was hatched to the young On the Rocks and her Quaker speaking mate Waffle House. Both are young and unconventional parents, but are doing well to raise the tiny terror and her two sisters. Personality: Jack is the smallest of the trio, but that doesn't bother her in any way. She's got a mind so inquisitive that she will go out of her way to find what she wants to know and getting herself a little dirty isn't a problem at all. To her, life is one big puzzle and the world is just brimming with knowledge. She does have a teeny little secret, though it is something she doesn't really want to acknowledge. She seems to be the only one of Rock's daughters who inherited her rare talent of seeing the past and present, and sometimes the future of other pidge in her dreams. It isn't exactly something she is thrilled about, because the whole affair seems rather strange and out of the ordinary. Skills: Still young to know what her exact skills are. She's incredibly inquisitive about everything in life and will later discover her hidden talents as a dream seer.
