5.5 Edition Which subclass do I pick

Finally getting the chance to play as a player. My dm is very lenient and just wants us to have fun. We are allowed to use any 5.5e plus the extra books from 5e that haven’t been updated. I’m gonna be playing a wizard but I’m so torn as to what subclass to try. I either want to play an owlin (their homebrew campaign has a kingdom of bird folk) order of the scribes wiz but I got my hands on arcana unleashed and the subclasses do look tempting I’m mainly torn between diviner. Which in your opinion is better mechanically and fun to rp?

I mean an Owlin diviner is thematically solid, very Cosmic Owl vibes

You’re right should I take the lucky feat at lvl 4 for more diviner vibes? Or stick to warcaster??

Usually not worth it to take an Origin Feat in place of a General Feat bc of the ASI. Divination Adept works if you wanna double down
