Name: Spindle {How do you come up with such good names?}
Rank: She's gonna be a loner.


Why do you want this Goennec?
I love spiders! My Great Aunt has a tarantula, and I'm not kidding, but I think she's just the sweetest thing ever. I kept coming back here, looking at all of them. I told myself I wasn't going to get one, but Spindle just keep showing up, and I just fell in love. I've never really seen a spider Halloween adoptable, and I just have to have her. I absolutely adore spiders, and my mom calls me the 'web hugger' because when we find a spider in our house, I usually let it stay {in the winter}, or in the summer I pick it up (yes, in my hand) and then I go stick it by our shed, in a nice place for it to make its nest. I would absolutely hate myself if I don't try for this beautiful fellow.

How would you use this character?
I would use the Goey for many reasons. One of them being art, such as poems, stories, simple doodles, or nice drawings. I would also use this Goey for practice, she seems like she would be a challenge to draw, with all 8 of her legs, and the two eyes {Because I tend to make my eyes to big, so it would be practice to make them in decent sizes} She defiantly be used to put into a mythical story I am writing, and she would make a great and unique character in it! She would be used in my character form, to just stand there and look scary beautiful.

Define your Goennec:

Spindle lives in the world of ideas and strategic planning. She values intelligence, knowledge, and competence, and typically have high standards in these regards, which she continuously strives to fulfill. To a somewhat lesser extent, she has similar expectations of others.

With Introverted Intuition dominating his personality, Spindle focuses his energy on observing the world, and generating ideas and possibilities. His mind constantly gathers information and makes associations about it. She is tremendously insightful and usually is very quick to understand new ideas. However, his primary interest is not understanding a concept, but rather applying that concept in a useful way. Unlike the some, she does not follow any idea as far as she possibly can, seeking only to understand it fully. Spindle is driven to come to conclusions about ideas. His need for closure and organization usually requires that she takes some action.

Spindles tremendous value and need for systems and organization, combined with his natural insightfulness, makes her a excellent 'scientist'. Spindle gives a gift to society by putting his ideas into a useful form for others to follow {If they would just allow her in :c}. It is not easy for her to express his internal images, insights, and abstractions. The internal form of his thoughts and concepts is highly individualized, and is not readily translatable into a form that others will understand. However, she is driven to translate his ideas into a plan or system that is usually readily explainable, rather than to do a direct translation of his thoughts. She usually doesn't see the value of a direct transaction, and will also have difficulty expressing his ideas, which are non-linear. However, his extreme respect of knowledge and intelligence will motivate her to explain themselves to another person who she feels is deserving of the effort. {Just someone who actually accepts her}

Spindle is a natural leader, although she chooses to remain in the background until she sees a real need to take over the lead. When she is in leadership role, she is quite effective, because she is able to objectively see the reality of a situation, and is adaptable enough to change things which aren't working well. {And because no one can take there eyes of of her} She is the supreme strategists - always scanning available ideas and concepts and weighing them against his current strategy, to plan for every conceivable contingency.

Spindle spends a lot of time inside his own mind, and may have little interest in the other Goey's thoughts or feelings. She has problems giving other people the level of intimacy that is needed. She sometimes has a tendency to ignore details which are necessary for implementing his ideas.

Spindle's interest in dealing with the world is to make decisions, express judgments, and put everything that she encounters into an understandable and rational system. Consequently, she is quick to express judgments. Often she has very evolved intuitions, and is convinced that she is right about things. Unless she complements his intuitive understanding with a well-developed ability to express his insights, she may find herself frequently misunderstood. In these cases, she tends to blame misunderstandings on the limitations of the other party, rather than on his own difficulty in expressing herself. This tendency may cause her to dismiss others input too quickly, and to become generally arrogant and elitist.

Spindle is ambitious, self-confident, deliberate, long-range thinker. She dislike messiness and inefficiency, and anything that is muddled or unclear. She values clarity and efficiency,and will put enormous amounts of energy and time into consolidating his insights into structured patterns.

Other Goey's may have a difficult time understanding Spindle. They may see her as aloof and reserved. Indeed, she is not overly demonstrative of their affections, and is likely to not give as much praise or positive support as others may need or desire. That doesn't mean that she doesn't truly have affection or regard for others, she simply does not typically feel the need to express it. Others may falsely perceive her as being rigid and set in his ways. Nothing could be further from the truth, because she is committed to always finding the objective best strategy to implement his ideas. She is usually quite open to hearing an alternative way of doing something.

When under a great deal of stress, Spindle may become obsessed with mindless repetitive, Sensate activities, such as over-drinking. She may also tend to become absorbed with minutia and details that she would not normally consider important to their overall goal.

Spindle needs to remember to express herself sufficiently, so as to avoid difficulties with Goey's misunderstandings. In the absence of properly developing his communication abilities, she may become abrupt and short with Goennec's, and isolationists.

Spindle has a tremendous amount of ability to accomplish great things. She has insight into the Big Picture, and is driven to synthesize his concepts into solid plans of action. His reasoning skills gives them the means to accomplish that. She is most always highly competent. She has the capability to make great strides in these arenas. On a personal level, she practices tolerances and puts effort into effectively communicating his insights to others has everything in his power to lead a rich and rewarding life. {If she just wasn't different D:}

Over all, she is just like a spider, tending to stay alone and calculate all of his decisions before she strikes. No no one seems to like her, and wouldn't second guess stepping on her.

What spider she originates from/ancestor spider!

This is pretty much where she lives, and spends most of her time. And yes, she does use it to catch food {Bugs}

    The Fairy and the Shadow Ghost/Spirit are amazing, Kam. I'm in love with them.

    However, I'm going to stay loyal for now, and I promise to make a form for that Doll Goennec. :3

The Leopard Pups
Grey, Black and White. The world revolves and we go with it. Twisting in this everlasting monotony, eyes of green and gold, watching and waiting for our chance, our time. Cytor, Liliana, Serenade, Bayonet, the Prankster, the sweet one, the mother and the lost soul. There birth was a lost event, one in a million, two wandering souls met in the shadows, and these four were created. There pups are the stuff of legend, one lost there sight, one lost there path, one lost there love and the other? The other lost his family, everyone they cared about. He lost his family.

    Geez Kam-right when I decide I don't have the time, you gotta go and drop a stunner like Darla on me.
    I have a quick question, if you don't mind-where do you stand on a Goey having Dissociative Identity Disorder?
    First look at Darla had a whole storyline growing, but it all hinges on her suffering from DID-and her alter being male. I know you want us to get permission on transgenders, so I figured I'd ask about this, since in this case it's slightly similar.

    ...hope that actually makes sense.
    Thanks!

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

        Goennec Pen #:
        W7
        Name:
        Finn
        (Finny)
        Rank:
        Peasant.
        Why do you want this goennec?:
        He's gorgeous. I absolutely lit up when I saw him - all line edits aside, his colours are gorgeous! The more I look at him the more I love him, and I'm excited to work on a personality for this fellow. Incorporating his odd self with the rest of the herd promises to be a wonderful challenge. I need to be working on nanowrimo, but I can't help going for him, so that will be an interesting task as well.
        How would you use this character?:

        Define your Goennec:

        Finn was originally a pet, with a rather interesting owner, though he was never meant to stay with her forever.

        The woman who had kept him while he was a very young kid could easily be called a witch, but she preferred to think of herself as a scientist. She was a quiet, peaceful woman who, surprisingly enough, did not live a secluded life on her own, and in fact kept Finn in a cozy little house on the outskirts of the city, and ventured into society quite often.

        However, she spent long trips out on her own, watching and writing about the herds she would follow during the summers, observing their behaviour. Eventually she became ready to interfere with a group - a new one, which she had not watched before - and thus Finn was born.

        The idea was that she could alter a foetus of a pregnant goennec with her own, somewhat dubious means, producing a mutation that would be completely useless, but very visible, and see how the herd would react.

        As he developed, he stayed over the winter in her home, with several other goennecs, whom she had been observing from her own living place, and grew some rather strange expectations for the world.

        Once he was reasonable old enough to care for himself, she sedated him, and took him in the back of a rather nice car to a spot a little way from the herd, where she figured the ram could be found before too long. She left him laying there, in a fairly sheltered area, and began planning her trip back to see what had occurred over the winter.

        Finn woke groggy and confused a few hours later to the faces of the Prime and Prince of the herd. Lance was, understandably, quite upset over finding the ram, and was opposed, even after taking in Dallas, not wanting to take in every stray they came across. Finn's insane-sounding babbling about his previous owner confused even the former pet, which confirmed his being let in the herd due to pity, and being seen as a bit of a mentally unstable freak.

        Finn is flighty, easily startled, on edge around those he does not know, never knowing whether his wings would bring hostility or admiration, usually trying to stray away from large groups. Not that he isn't sociable, however - he loves talking to others, and will cheerfully chatter someone to death, as long as the fear of rejection is gone.

        Somewhat scatter-brained, Finn only has a slight idea of how absent he can be. His thoughts move very quickly, and he will change subjects abruptly, confusing others, though to him it's obvious how his thought process could connect the various things.

        Among the right company, he can be proud of his wings, though he largely wished he did not have them, or at least that they weren't useless. He spent a lot of his time as a kid trying to fly, or at least hoping at one point he'd gain the ability, but they remained, as far as he could tell, utterly pointless.

        He is friendly, and good-natured, and though impatient, he tries to keep his temper in check. Often, however, he will stomp his front hooves against the ground in a childish display whenever he gets frustrated.

        Imogene is his friend, and though she does not pretend not to notice his unusual appearance, with her, unlike everyone else, he does not mind so much. She seems to treat his wings differently, and her sympathy isn't quite the pity he hates, and she seems to see his wings as something as a muse for her stories. He finds the whole thing so odd he doesn't have time to be annoyed.

        Xion is another of his comrades. Though Xion did, at first, try to avoid Finn, Imogene convinced the two to communicate, and they became much more comfortable with each other. Xion still acts incredibly awkward around the strange ram, trying too hard to pretend not to notice the large wings and avoid offending Finn.

        Dallas became his friend almost immediately, excited and curious about another pet. To her dismay, Finn had been through vastly different experiences than she had, but the two could at least still relate to missing the warm, dry places they used to have whenever they wanted.

        Dislikes:
        His height. He loathes being short, especially when he's reminded that there are quite a few does that easily surpass him in height.

        His wings. He honestly just wished the awful things would just go away.

        Being stared at - in addition to other negative reactions to his bizarre appearance. It doesn't matter if others intend to be rude or not, he is incredibly awkward when people spend too much time bothering about his looks.

        Goennec Pen #: W3
        Name: Pierina

        [It., "Made of Stone"]
        Rank: Peasant
        Reasoning: Pierina's muscles are unusually stiff, making it a little difficult for her to fight. She has difficulties running because of this stiffness, but can manage a slow jog if needed. She tries to be around a strong soldier at all times so that she can be defended if attacked. For this reason, she is usually found in the company of Gabrielle.
        She also has perpetually dry skin, which is a fault that rams in the herd do not care for. Many of the rams in my herd are vain, and do not like the extra shedding or dandruff that comes with the condition.


        Why do you want this goennec?:
          Usually, I'm not one for gargoyles. In real life, they creep me out because of those huge, staring eyes. However, I do have a thing for gravestones and stone monuments, and to me... Pierina's a mix of both and I love that. I love that she can be both the maddeningly creepy one that's always there and watching, with those huge blank eyes that send chills up my spine... or she can be the weeping or sleeping angel (with batlike wings, no less) at the graves of others - especially the young, watching over the deceased with that unceasingly open calmness that such beings seem to exude.

        How would you use this character?:
          The possibilities are endless when it comes to me. My characters appear in my art, in my writing, on my homework, all over my notes, and they're constantly in my head, so nearly every single dream involves at least some of them. They never leave my thoughts, and are always in and out of my head like it's a live-in hotel, or something, where everyone checks in and never, ever, ever decides to check out.

        Define your Goennec:
          Personality.
            Shy. Pierina is incredibly shy, and does not like meeting new Goennecs or other animals. Her voice is very soft and she tries making herself as small as possible most of the time - except when she stretches her wings, which are the most flexible part of her and enable her to glide short distances in the most ideal of conditions.
            Reverent. Pierina often tries speaking with the Goddess, praying for miracles and guidance when hope is fleeting or gone. In times of peace, she thanks the Goddess constantly, requesting the knowledge and power to make the peace stay longer.
            Clingy. Because Pierina cannot move as fast as other Goennecs, she clings to those whom she trusts to fight for her, especially Gabrielle. She is noted as Gabri's most constant companion during the Siv, as she feels that she owes it to her very best friend to stick with her year-round.
            Watchful. Though she is slow to move, not much escapes Pierina's eyes and ears. She's constantly alert and aware of her surroundings, and can detect something approaching a few minutes before others can.
            Good Sense of Humor. Though she's not much for active physical humor, Pierina enjoys a good joke every now and again. Verbal jokes, especially, are her favorite, though she does enjoy light pranks such as using the shadows of her wings in the moonlight to create a spooky monster in the night.


          Likes.
            Rain. Pierina loves the rain. It soothes her perpetually dry skin and constantly sore muscles, and she loves how it feels when it runs over and down her wings. While most goeys would rather find shelter in a downpour, Pierina wants to stand in the middle of it and enjoy every drop.
            Tall hills. Tall hills are the only places Pierina can stretch her wings and let herself think that she can fly. She tires of her own physical issues, but finds it easy to forget that she cannot run or jump when the ground slopes down in front of her and the wind rushes at her from behind.
            Strong winds. Strong winds create a strong lift, which make the most ideal conditions for Pierina to glide a maximum of eight to ten feet, depending on how hard she pushes off and how low the ground she lands on is in front of her. This is as close to true flight as she can manage, as her physical stiffness does not allow her to develop the muscles she would need for her to create her own lift.
            Gabri(elle). To Pierina, Gabri is a guardian angel, sent in the form of a terrific best friend for the shy ewe. She thanks the Goddess every day that she has such a wonderful, loyal friend to trust with her life and safety.
            Stories. Pierina is a sucker for stories, real or not, and no matter the genre. They're her favorite form of entertainment, and she's got a great memory for each of the tales she's been told.

          Dislikes.
            Being alone. Pierina does not like being alone. At all. It puts her on edge, which makes her feel like the world is after her, and she simply can't fight even the smallest of beasts off.
            Fish. Fish humiliate Pierina with how fast they flip, flop and thrash. Too often has she lost a catch after getting slapped repeatedly by the flailing tail of her would-be prey. So she tries to avoid fishing at all costs.
            The flooded river. When the river floods, it turns into whitewater rapids that scare the life out of Pierina. She just can't handle the speed of the water, and wouldn't be able to save herself, if she were to fall in.
            Hawks. Hawks, for some reason, often mistake Pierina for a vulnerable meal. She makes a note to make herself as big as possible when they're in the sky, but they sometimes appear out of nowhere and divebomb her.

          Overview of History.
