This was very fun because it was so different from how I normally create ocs. Normally, I just get hit with random ideas and see what I can make out of them. I almost never do stuff like this because I usually can't follow through if I'm not actually passionate about the idea. But I did it this time! My favoritism towards theming characters after birds is really showing. Anyway, on to random character information. Lucas is specifically a Eurasian Eagle-Owl because Owl was only portrayed as a distinct species of owl once and it was an eagle-owl. He's Swiss! Of course I had to make him a history teacher. Some students question if his knowledge is actually accurate because of his UM. He's prone to long rambles during class. He constantly remembers how this relates to that, and how that relates to this other thing, and so on. Some students really hate his class because of that, but he does it because he genuinely loves teaching! He wants to share everything that he knows! He also writes children's books under a pen name. They're stories that he used to tell to his siblings, nieces, and nephews when they were little. Also yes he has feathers that pop out of his hair and look like little "horns".
Here's a picture of the owl I'm referencing:
