• What are Hawkling?

  Hawkling are a race that I made up. A hawkling is pretty much the human form of a bird (Specifically a hawk ) They have some features similar to that of a Japanese tengu, including wings. Female hawkling have markings around their eyes that resemble cats eye makeup. They also have wings that are made up of brown, white, and black feathers. All hawkling have slightly pointed ears and snake-like pupils in their eyes.
  
  Hawkling are known for their unusual wing pattern. Their feathers are highly prized because they are extra soft and make great accessories in foreign countries. These people reside in Finland and other parts of Europe, which is why they enjoy the cold. Their favorite place to hide from poachers and hunters are mountains.
  
  Due to being hunted, hawkling are extremely rare to find. A person would be very lucky if they ever saw a live one during their life time. Due to being so rare their feathers are worth even more.

• Why does she wear feathers?

  It is often seen as hypocrytical, but hawkling enjoy wearing the feathers of other bird's on their cloths and in their hair. For the men this is seen as a manly thing- The more feathers they have (and the more exotic they are ) the better the hunter they are.
  
  The female hawkling usually wear feathers from their mate's kills but Keina wears them from her own. She does not belong to a specific village of hawkling so she doesn't have a mate. Therefore, she must wear the feathers from her own kills.

• Biography

  When Keina was just a tiny little infant a hermit found her mother in the woods. The woman was almost dead, having fallen through the trees and into the snow during a storm. When he moved to help the woman he noticed that she had a baby nestled into her shirt and her wings were wrapped around them both for warmth. The man quickly took the two back to his house where he placed them on the couch next to the fire place. He called a medic but the woman had no chance of surviving, and before she dies she held her child out to the hermit, asking for him to take care of her, though she did not say so out loud. The look was in her eyes. The man couldn't say no to such a pleading expression, so he took the baby and promised to look after he.
  
  The hermit knew that he could not take care of such a small child. But at the same time he also knew the dangers that all hawkling faced, for they were highly hunted. He took baby Keina into a small town and turned her over to the medic couple that lived there. It was there in that house that Keina was raised and taught how to take care of the sick and wounded.
  
  Due to her status of being a hawkling, Keina's parents were too worried about her safety to send her off to public school, so she was home schooled by a nice lady who also lived within the town.
  
  Keina marched through life with her chin held high. She had been raised to be as strong as possible and to never let anyone put her down.
  
  Keina has worked at several infirmaries and private homes after leaving home. But being betrayed almost each time has led her to look for yet another job.
