Bubo Scandiacus, the snowy owl that was dubbed by the name of Aeris (only after Luli suggested millions of names out of fear that he wouldn't like any of them). Weighing in around the average 5 ibs. with a wingspan of 56 inches, this snowy owl spends most of his time hovering over his witch rather than perched onto her delicate shoulders. His species is easily considered to be one of the largest owls, but the males tend to be on the smaller side, making his pristine ivory color the only telltale sign that he is in fact a male. He's void of any dark marks, which is something he's quite proud of, and he obtains an intimidating pair of sharp yellow orbs that are prone to giving people the shivers. His talons are always kept in the best of shape, as he is (surprisingly) still adept at hunting and prefers to catch his prey rather than be fed by hand, not that he would hate it if he was pampered like that.

Snowy owls are quite well known for their majestic looks and their elegant actions, Aeris is no exception. He's a wise, prideful bird that does his best to exhibit a mannerful demeanor, even if he comes off as snobby at times. He expects the best out of everyone as he believes he only gives his best to everyone else and is not above using his looks to intimidate anyone else. An easy way to get on his good side is to stroke his ever so large ego, but he is no idiot, so he can easily tell if you're simply trying to butter him up. He is also quite disappointed in Luli's choice to join the coven with such a 'criminal' reputation, his high morals would have been much more valued and shared with the Helios Knights. Despite his slightly arrogant attitude, Aeris is a truly loyal and protective familiar, wanting only the very best for his witch.

Now this isn't to say that him and Luli get along all of the time. Her meek and docile nature often irritates the proud owl, who thinks she needs to stand up for herself more and make a name for herself. He doesn't quite understand her urge to blend into the crowd, yet he knows better than to push her too much, he's witnessed her fragility first hand. In the beginning they had a rocky start, with him saying unintentionally cruel things and succeeding in making her almost cry. Nonetheless, they slowly formed a deep bond as he came to understand her better and she put more effort into understanding his point of view. Just like the rest of his species he is very over protective and goes out of his way to protect Luli from even the smallest of threats, whether it's by cutting off her drinks at the bar or warding off men with bad intentions, 'ruffians', as he calls them. He knows that she truly has a good soul, which is one of the main reasons he cares for her so much in spite of her gloomy disposition.

Aeris has a taste for the finer things in life, so whenever they have the free time, Luli will often allow him to drag her off to some boutique he likes (he refuses to leave her alone for that long) and watch as he dresses himself in high quality accessories. There have been many times where Luli has had to drag him out of a store to keep him from stealing an expensive bracelet. For now, he only adorns a simple gold ankle bracelet that he's 'found' himself, but he one day hopes to obtain more beautiful accessories to complement his handsome qualities.
