I must say, guys, if you cannot post anything but the pen number or even simply copy paste the form until later, just wait a little until you post the form. No rush to get an empty form in after all~
Also, hadn't seen that last boy. That long mane with the bobtail look adorable. <3

I'm a bit late, but the new lines look amazing, Kam! I love how the lines seem to get more and more goat-like with each change, haha. I think these are my favorite ones yet. ^^

For the define part of the form, we have to describe the physical appearance of the Goennec correct? Sorry if this is a stupid question, it's my first time trying out for a Goennec.

No, that's where the personality, likes/dislikes, story... things like that go. ^^; It doesn't do you any good to describe a picture; Kam wants to see how well you connect with the character, which is done by writing or drawing how the Goey behaves and thinks. c:

Oh ok thanks! I really want one, the designs are just lovely!

Goennec Pen #:
W3
Name:
Baraq
~Pronounced Ba-ra-ki~
{{Hebrew name meaning "Flash of Lightning"}}
Rank:
Prime
Age:
Fifteen Years
Height:
2'7"
Coloration:
Naturally Colored
Anything Abnormal?:
No Abnormalities

Why do you want this Goennec?:
Honestly I have been looking for the perfect Goennec male to become my small herd's prime and as soon as I saw this beautiful male, I knew he was it. I will admit, I was a bit concerned at first, not quite sure if I would actually get up the confidence to try for him, but when Friday came along and he still didn't have a SINGLE form, I knew without a doubt that I couldn't just let him slip through my fingers. With another glance at the front page, I was instantly determined to try for him as best as I could within the time constraints, with high hopes that I could be blessed enough to own this gorgeous male.

How would you use this character?:
I would DEFINITELY get art made of him, for although his design is a bit intricate, he is just far too pretty to leave without any fabulous art. I will also doodle him a bit myself, since I have been seeking something to draw lately to better my skills and I feel as though he would be it. I would certainly add more to him, such as about his history and such, and definitely include him in multiple stories that I write about my herd as soon as I get enough of them to begin some ideas that I have. I have a feeling this special boy would find a place in my signature as well. ;3

Define your Goennec:
~~Likes~~
His herd - There is absolutely nothing more important to this male than his herd. He would do absolutely anything for them, from skip a meal to be able to let his herd mates have the best grass, to giving up his life fighting off a predator.
Kids - Kids are one of the things that makes this male smile no matter what kind of mood he's in, no matter what drama is being spread all around him, or what sort of dangers he is facing. Just the sight of a kid, whether they are playing with their siblings or just curled up asleep, it warms Baraq's heart.
Spring Time- No, I do not mean the fighting to find females to be apart of one's harem, although he is not at all afraid to get down and dirty if need be to show his strength and get what he wants. He just loves the beautiful colors all around, as well as the romantic feel to the air.
~~Dislikes~~
Sneaky Behavior - He prefers it when others are honest with him, and despises when he is deceived. He would rather be told off honestly than someone lying to his face.
~~Heat~~ Baraq absolutely hates the heat, much rather preferring the cold. When the heat of the summer rolls in, he will quickly begin trying to find ways to cool himself, such as taking a swim in a cool river.
~~Fire~~ Although he has no real reason to be afraid of fire, no horrible past experiences with it, nothing, he still hates fire with a burning passion inside of his soul.

~~In A Sentence~~
Cool, Calm, and Collected with a temper that you do not want to bring out.
~~Digging Deeper~~
Very easy-going and level-headed, this Prime male is known for his calm attitude even in the most nerve-wracking of situations. He may be panicking on the inside, but it never shows through, in any way, shape, or form. A fire is approaching the herd? Everyone stay calm, don't freak out, and just trot away, for if you rush you may stumble and injure yourself and be unable to escape. A bobcat is stalking one of the kids? No need worry, just stay behind Baraq and he'll scare it off.
It takes a lot to rile him up, for his temper is very deeply hidden inside of him, but when it is let loose, watch out. It is sharp and lashes out like a cobra, so harsh that it has led to Goennecs crawling away in fear, whimpering, even crying their eyes out as they beg for his forgiveness, for the anger to subside. That part of Baraq rarely ever sneaks out, but when it does shine through, it is best to stay away, unless of course you are the reason it came out, for in that case, the best advice is to be as submissive and apologetic as possible, trying to stay away from his hard hooves and pointed horns.

Goennec Pen # ;; W1

Name ;; Neva

Age ;; 12

Rank ;; Peasant

Reason ;; When she was younger, say about 9, her eyes got scratched quite badly by snow-covered rose thorns; while she is not blind, her vision is severely impaired, therefore Neva has been deemed unfit to fight.
Why do you want this goennec? ;; Well I must say, this girl is quite the beauty! Winter and Spring palettes are also favourites of mine, so this round's Goennecs were certainly an attractive prospect, especially since I've applied in the past, but never managed to complete my forms. So, here I am, trying out for this sweetheart over here.

How would you use this character? ;; Although I am incapable of producing quality art myself, I'd certainly be up for commissioning pieces! I'd probably start with ordering a chibi to place in my signature. c: What I can do, however, is write. Short stories, drabbles, poems, journal entries ... you name it! I'm sure I'd be able to sneak her into a few of my ficlet ideas, and I can't wait to see what kind of development she'll go through. Oh, yes, and I might join the roleplay, depending on how my schedule looks after this round - if I happen to become the proud owner of Neva.

Define your Goennec ;; I've been trying to improve my 'showing' skills, so I'll try to give you a glimpse of her personality through a little drabble:

Humming softly to herself, Neva trailed near the back of her herd, moonkissed pelt brushing against her friend's every so often, just to check that she was going the right way. While she could easily maintain the brisk, steady pace that her herd demanded, normally she would veer off track at least once; this was, however, hardly due to her lack of direction. It was most often her fantasies of frolicking in grassy meadows and sunlit glades that distracted her for long enough to stop going the way she was meant to. Considering her deep love of all things wintry, not to mention her snow-related name, it might come as a bit of a surprise that she entertained such whimsical dreams. Then again, that was Neva for you.

While terribly unsuited for the drums of war, she liked to make herself useful by telling stories, ensuring a pleasant journey or quaint moment of companionship. From myths to rumours, to sagas and the slightly exaggerated truth, this silver furred Goennec liked nothing more than a familiar crowd and a quiet night. Each night, the cheers originating from a crowd of like-minded, healthy Goennecs never failed to place a smile on her muzzle, which rest there even as she drifted off into lala land. While Neva would have loved to be a brave warrior fighting for her herd, she was secretly relieved that she didn't have to deal with such brutal violence.

Now, some might call that avoiding the real issue - after all, she wasn't so much an advocate of peace than a simple bystander, unwilling to change anything; but what good would such an aficionado have done anyway? The way of the Goennecs were, as far as Neva was concerned, set in stone. And she was fine with that.

Goennec Pen # : W2
Name : Fala
Rank : Soldier
Size : 2'4''
Why do you want this Goennec? : Well at first I thought it would be smart to just wait out this round, because school work is piling up on me and making my computer time limited. Yet the more I passed by the pens, the more interested I became in this girl. I liked how she seemed for fit a theme of melting, which differed from all the others. The detail in her is really lovely, and I adore the fact that she has no hooves, just paws. Because of labor day weekend, I have more time to get work done which meant I had time to fill out a nice form for this girl. She's really lovely and I get lots of ideas by just looking at her.
How would you use this character? : I'm not exactly an artist, but I love to doodle and draw on my tablet a lot, even though I don't show very many people. I can promise you that'll I'll draw Fala along with my other Goennecs. Not to mention I'll make sure I can order art of her too, since that's always fun. Fala will also join the roleplay board, since I love to roleplay and I think it would be really fun to rp her with everyone else's Goeys and see how she acts around them.
Define your Goennec : Fala is sly, sneaky, and a very reclusive Goennec. Shy isn't exactly the best word to describe her as, since the Soldier is actually quite nice and good to get along with if you know her good enough. Since she doesn't have any hooves, you don't hear the loud clicking sound when she walks or runs. Her steps are quiet and it's near impossible to hear them, making it easy to slip around and spy on others. She has been able to pick up important pieces of information because of this, and can easily get away from a troubling situation because no one is able to locate her current position. Fala is pretty smart, but sometimes has trouble working out a thought, and often dilly-dallies and needs a few moments to think something through. Because of this, and a few other reasons, Fala has taken a liking to another Soldier in the herd, Henna. Quick to think and good at focusing, Henna makes for a wonderful companion to Fala, and the two are rarely apart unless one of them is needed for something from the Prime, Buck. He often calls Fala over to ask her to spy something out for him. Whenever there is an odd scent in the air, or signs of a stranger on their territory, he makes her go and scope it out. Fala is easily able to do this, and has no trouble finding the source of these problems without getting noticed or caught. In multiple cases she has helped them out, giving her a respectable rank among the herd even though Buck himself doesn't like her much. Try as she might, Fala can't seem to earn Buck's full trust. She makes him nervous, and he doesn't like how she's able to mask herself away from him so easily.
Story : The air was cool, the sky dark and crisp as snow fell lightly. The gray shadowed female slipped through the bushes and made her way up the cliff, towards the Prime's den. Her paws left prints in the snow, only to be covered by swishing her tail back and forth. Even in the territory of the herd, it was best not to let anyone know she had come this way, even if she trusted her friends. Others could invade or sneak in during the night, and all they needed where the tracks of a passing Goennec to know where the prime was and attack. She shuddered at the thought, pushing it away as she reached the set of trees he often rested in.
"Buck?"
There was some rustling, and the large, orange and white male stepped out from the branches, frowning a bit as he stared down at her. "Fala, what did you see?" His words rumbled and seemed to shake the ground beneath her, intimidating almost anyone that approached. Yet with Fala, it was the opposite reaction. She could see in his eyes, that he was unsure. Nervous, confused, worried at times. For anyone else, there was confidence, wisdom, and kindness. Not for her, for her it was always different. It was like he sensed some sort of darkness inside of her, and didn't to get too close.
"Everything is clear and well, sir. It's quite tonight." She answered, tail flicking as he stared up at the stars, most of them clouded by gray clouds. After a few moments had passed, Fala got no response from the Prime, and figured that their conversation was over. So with a slight sigh, she turned around and shuffled back down the cliff, towards where the Soldiers slept. Making out the form of Henna among the shaded trees, she curled up beside female silently.
Her thoughts wandered for a few moments like the gentle snowflakes blanketing the ground. She wondered if the snow ever felt used or seem as less then it should be. When it would first come, it was beautiful, wonderful, and like a mystery. You toyed with it, and created it into things, messing with it more and more. Over time, you grow bored of it, and you learn of it's harshness, how strong and powerful it can be. You grow scared or it sometimes, and prefer others instead. Then, when the snow finally accepts this, it's too late to do anything. That's when, on the last day of it's life, it melts.
