Requirements

Could be either centering, awareness or introspection.

Introspection at 35 seems to be the winner.

• Successul Message:

You approach the white female snowy owl calmly and deliberately.

You reach out and blend the periphery of your perceptive and emotive sensitivities with a white female snowy owl's mind.

The white female snowy owl flies to your side.

You feel spiritually exhausted but deeply contented, as though you have been made more complete.

You will now trust a white female snowy owl.

You are now a first-degree specialist in air affinity, earth affinity, fire affinity, and water affinity.

You are now a second-degree specialist in awareness and centering.

Your hair turns white.

• Failure Message:

You sense a sort of mild condescension from the tawny female owl, as though it considers you to be immature or childlike in some way.

• Imagining the Bond:

You imagine what it would be like to have a deep bond with the tawny male owl, and you feel a distinct echo from within it.

You experience feelings of insight, wisdom, patience and serenity.

You experience visions of stars burning in a moonless sky, rain hissing onto the surface of a dark lake, the silouhettes of mountain peaks at dusk and wind whistling through a shadowy forest.

Attack                          Activity

Wisp of Moonfire                11        
Gale of Shrieking Wind          16        
Gout of Earthflame              17        
Stream of Elemental Water       17        
Stream of Elemental Air         17        
Gout of Airflame                18        
Jet of Stormwater               18        
Bolt of Elemental Earth         19        
Gout of Fire                    19        
Sheet of Burning Sky            20        
Cloud of Moonsquall             20        
Gust of Moonwind                20        
Flood of Elemental Water        21        
Blast of Elemental Earth        21        
Torrent of Fire                 21        
Cyclone of Elemental Air        21        
Gout of Waterflame              21        
Blast of Earthfury              21        
Sheet of Moonloam               23        
Rain of Moondew                 30       
Flood of Riptide                31        

Note from Ralnos: There seems to be three tiers of elemental attacks. The one shown here is a bottom tier attack, which means it takes only one type of elemental energy and very minimal amounts of it. The middle tier attacks take two types of energies, as far as I know, and take more significant amounts. (Stream of Elemental Water takes one water energy per use, Jet of Stormwater takes around 3 and some air energy as well.) The top tier attack (only one is known so far) hasn't been much tested yet.
Note from Castien: I`m not sure there is such a well defined pattern. Blast of Earthfury(earth+chaos) and Gale of Shrieking Wind(air+sonic) both seem to use one type of energy. You also could look at the special attack rating for your specialty attacks to see which of the 4 magics they use.

At "Fairly Healthy" bond strength, 1 bonus specialty and +1 maximum is granted in each of Aeromancy, Cthonimancy, Hydromancy, Pyromancy, Air Affinity, Earth Affinity, Fire Affinity and Water Affinity.

Traits Granted

Owl familiars grant Night vision and reduced Light sensitivity that increases based on bond strength.

Suspected Abilities

Twilight has also said that Owl eventually obtains the Cloud Cane charm, which enchants any staff or rod to grant wingless flight.
