Name: Orion
Age: 14
Appearance: Orion is small. Even if he didn't spend most of his time with his head down, looking like he was trying to disappear, Orion would look small. Although, blending in with a crowd is not something he can easily achieve -- what with having a pair of wings on his head. Thankfully he also had a head of blond hair to sort of... make the white feathers blend in more.
Personality: Shy might be an understatement. Perhaps skittish is a better word to describe him. Orion is over cautious around people, but will still hang around crowded areas. There's a sort of longing that pulls at him; something that makes him want to reach out, but something also that makes him pull away. He won't be the first person to speak, but if approached he'll gladly swallow his concerns and talk.
History: This is by far, the vaguest part of him, because he himself is unsure about it. His memory is fuzzy, and everything seems to come in clips and phrases. The only thing that is absolutely clear is where he came from: the Dermûn Desert. The fact, however is all he can really recall. He came out of the desert, half head, if his memory hasn't failed him that much, and that was it. What bothers him, though, is not that he can't remember, but the reason behind it. Did something happen to him (like a good blow to the head), or... does he just not want to remember? And from what he can see, it just might be the latter.
Other: Since he doesn't remember much, Orion runs on his intuition most of the time. What he feels and the things that happen today are what are most important. What he knows about himself is what he holds onto.
He knows that he came from the desert, and this, he is certain, is the reason that he always seems to be cold. Assuming that he had lived there for his whole life, it is the only explanation. The desert is hot, everything else, by comparison, is cold.
Orion also knows that, although he has wings, his is afraid of heights. He can only assume that he can fly with them, because he's never used them... maybe.
He has also decided that, except for the wings and liking exterme heat, he is just like a human. Average strength (well, in Orion's case, a little weaker than average), average stamina, etc.
((added some stuff that should hopefully clear some things up... a little >.>))
