Personality
A rule-follower to the T, a strict follower of knowledge and logic, an owl who prides himself on his opportunistic methods. That is the kind of owl Nero of the New Order is. He acts the part of a soldier with a wicked sort of merciless wit. He pities none, looks down on nearly all, plots against all but keeps his tongue as silkily silver as possible. An actor of innocence and good intentions for his allies, playing the part of the one who cares, but it is still just that; an act.
He is generous with his knowledge however, always willing to learn, always willing to teach, and even more willing to strengthen those around him so that he is always well protected. But that has never stopped him from learning his own eccentric methods of self-defense and less-than-safe flight maneuvers. Yet one thing is always true no matter how cold-hearted he may become, how pin-pointedly logical his mind may appear; Nero takes care of those under him. He will never show them weakness, a pillar of confidence, a source for them to look up to or something to envy. Ruthless strictness but he covers for them all while baring the act of respect towards his fellows and 'betters'. There's only so high in the chain of command that they can fly after all.

History
Nero of Tyto, an owlet born to the New Order since the very beginning. He was trained to be a soldier from the moment his wings began to fledge, discipline held him even earlier. All his fellows were his family for how he knew, any real blood-relations never met or never surviving the trials that led many a New Order initiative. Since the beginning he has held a cold mind for calculation, his own self-confidence and pride fueling his silent amibitions to climb the ladder. He was a soldier aiming for the cushy life, following his General's order to the best of his abilities, thinking outside the box- a complete monster in the air.
Tales of Guardians fell on deaf ears when it came to him, he cared not for 'good or evil'. To him such matters meant little in terms of 'war'. Conflict. It didn't matter, he was born to a side and he would loyally follow them no matter their apparent 'madness'. Again, such things did not matter to him so long as they were winning. And they were. Kidnapping owlets, setting fires to the kingdoms, chaos and strife in the name of 'peace against conflict'. Battle-born owls, creatures who knew nothing but bloodshed. That is the kind of world Nero grew up in. That is the world he came to know as an unforgettable truth. That is why sought the easy life, the only one he knew being that of a teacher. So he taught himself, analyzed the world, shared his knowledge to climb up the ladder of his world's thorny ladder. Evolving from a simple soldier to a scholarly pursuit. Determined one day that he'll fly higher than anyone ever thought they could.
And he'll use any method he can gather to get there...
