the species:
tauren are about the size of a horse. males are usually bigger, with thicker fur and denser muscles. they have four eyes with excellent vision, capable of seeing extraordinarily well in the dark, and a set of venom-tipped fangs inside their mouth. they are predominantly carnivores; eating any and all meat they can hunt, humans are no exception to this rule [unless the human is their partner, or partnered with another tauren]. their fur is thick and shaggy, yet seems to hold no heat. the reason for this is yet to be discovered. tauren are surprisingly social, living in small groups of up to five. they frequently come into contact with other groups, and seem to have no exact territory; they are happy to share with those of their kind. when it comes to hunting, they are brutal but fast- and food is shared among them.

Through this gentle night
A Tauren lies alone
In the dark, but feeling light
The joy this night brings
On starry wings
Makes this Tauren like a kite
Amanecer's soul is soaring
Through the dark, and feeling light.
Username: FlightOfTheOwl
Name: Amanecer (Dawn or Aurora in Spanish)
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Personality: Amanecer is a kind, truthful, beautiful girl. She's somewhat quiet, preferring to listen rather than talk. If she gets a chance to talk, though (she doesn't often) she can talk a LOT. She's a wonderful friend, very supportive, and will stand up for her friends always. She has a strong sense of right and wrong and is responsible, often not wanting to do the 'wrong' thing, like sneaking out or eating more than her share. Sometimes she likes a bit of quiet, though, where she's alone and can think, or talk, to herself. She has an adventurous streak that not many know about. Shataria is one of the few who know about it. She's a swift runner, as well, and optimistic. She likes to swim (if Tauren can), she's very interested in the natural world (life science, technically) and is naturally curious. She likes books (if Tauren have books/scrolls >.<).
Likes: Nighttime, outside, being with her friends, books (if Tauren have books), running, swimming (if Tauren can), adventures, learning about the natural world, asking questions, being alone sometimes.
Dislikes: Jerks/bullies, the heat (although she likes being warm), pollution, extinction, violence, blood (kind of has a phobia of blood!).
Willing to let Shataria be their friend? x3: Absolutely. She loves the company of other Tauren, even if they are just sitting in companionable silence. They can be amazingly close friends. :3
Art (under the stars at night): The oekaki is broken for me! It doesn't work at all!! I have no idea why, I've used it before... Use the poem on top, instead, if you want to judge by art.
Other: O. M. G. I really really REALLY hope I get her. ;o; She's so beautiful... (If I do get her, I might make her my fursona!) But if I don't get her, congratulations to whoever will
