And I see a small universe on Rift's back, so she's going to be a bit closer to the stars.... @.@
Edit: Noticed a small error on the first page. On Marley, you have her abnormality as floppy-ear. On the others with floppy ears, you've written "no abnormality". ^.^;;
Goennec Pen #: 3
Name: Celestina, later changed to Cassiopoeia, after the constellation.
How would you use him/her: She will balance Hatter. An exact opposite, through gender, color, hoof/paw placement and mental state, though compatible and nearly the same, she and Hatter can weave more backstory than any one alone. He is sanity in insanity; she is insanity in sanity, though not completely insane, if that's not messy enough.
I may also start roleplaying, so I might use her for that. Depends on if I can come up with a plot, and if the people on my other RP will cross the Atlantic and kill me for it. xD If I can wrangle it, I'll be playing both her and Hatter- though, that shouldn't be a problem; I've played three characters at once before.
Define your Goennec: (Written last night... took me a nice hour and a half, though for such a beautiful Goennec, I probably should have written more.)
Celestina Cassiopoeia
Cass has everything a young female Goennec could want- class, status, one of the best hovels in the valley, given to her by her father... but she's alone. With no one in her herd willing or able to stand her high, shrill voice or tendency to hop on all fours when even remotely excited, se's turned to an outcasted member of a rival herd- Hatter. Almost every day, she'll sneak over to his grove, bleat once, and laugh as Hatter's bright green eyes appear from one of his many favorite hiding places. She loves hearing the logic in his madness, sometimes holding long debates with him over the oddest things, such as how trees are like rocks- until neither can remember what the debate was about in the first place. At this point, both look up at the stars, Hatter always pointing out the constellation Cassiopoeia, and comparing Cass to a queen. Though her parents originally named her Celestina, Hatter started calling her Cassiopoeia... and she took the name. She is the only Goennec that has ever seen Hatter in one of his sane moments, and counts herself lucky to be that one.
Within the boundaries of her herd, she's extremely standoffish. She rarely lets anyone that is not of direct relation around her, and, during mating season, will bite, ram and kick any male that attempts to mount her. She doesn't desire a mate, at least, for the moment. But every now and again, she dreams of little ones with beautiful green eyes and horns. She keeps these dreams to herself, though, and for good reason; If anyone knew about her visiting Hatter, she'd be banished from the only home she's ever known, and no Gonennec in their right mind would let her live in peace.
Her life goal is to live richly. She doesn't want or need a bunch of children; she wants to gain a little bit of control of the herd and change some of the antiquated rules the chauvinistic and bull-headed leader brothers have set into place. She loves her home, but sees a lot of fighting in her future with the way things are going, which might put an end to her lifestyle if the brothers lose the herd their land.

Celestina looked up, following Hatter's gaze.
"You see it?"
"See what?"
"The Queen. Sitting above you. She knows something."
"Oh?"
"Mmmhmm."
"Is she saying anything? Or is your hat over your ears?"
"I'm gonna call you Cassiopoeia."
Celestina blinked.
"Because she's sitting over my head?"
"Of course not. It suits you."
"Cassiopoeia?"
"Are you talking to yourself, now? You're right there. Please don't lose yourself, how would I ever find you again?"

In my main plotline, she leaves with Aibu and a trailing Hatter, and the trio are chased out of her herd's lands, with the sentence of death upon sight if any of them so much as approach the area again. She will help provide for the other two on the road, though she will eventually get injured in a fight and be forced to remain in a central "city" as she heals, and will be visited frequently by the remaining pair and anyone else that joins them throughout the story.
She will return to the group near the end, and perform a pivotal role in the battles. She will mostly be a distraction for the henchmen of the dark forces, racing through caves and tunnels, screeching, while the males- besides Hatter- fight.
In other storylines, she will be there to support Hatter, and Hatter will support her. Together, they can weave backstory more than either one alone can. Eventually, in an epilogue, and when breeding opens, I hope to have Cass's dreams come true. In that case, I have a bunch of plans for her in that particular future.
