Description

*quietly sobs over deadline being RIGHT at the start of the semester*

♥ N a m e : Reuben

♥ A g e : He insists he's 24 no matter what you say. Truth is he's a lot older, but never kept track.

♥ B i r t h d a y : He likes the sound of November 11th

♥ S p e c i e s : Unicorn

♥ F a c t i o n : Red

♥ J o b : Puppet Show Player

♥ P e r s o n a l i t y :
Reuben tends to be an overly cheerful, optimistic man who’s very animated and childish in his movements. He’s naïve, gullible, and tries to see the good side in everyone he meets. Despite being in the human world for quite some time, he still finds everything about it incredible and lets his curiosity get the better of him, often invading personal space, privacy, or others belongings. He’s unable to see what’s so wrong about this since ‘no harm is done’ in his eyes.
Despite this childish nature of his, he tends to enjoy more refined activities when he’s not entertaining others. You can often find him sewing various things or making tea or reading. His speech pattern also tends to be rather eloquent.
You’re also always guaranteed to see him with a puppet on hand, chatting away with it. In Reuben’s eyes, all his puppets are very much real and he treats them as such despite having made them all himself and providing their ‘voice’ in the conversation. They’re pretty much his family and best friends. They’re also projections for his more ‘negative’ emotions.
His favorite puppet is Isabelle, the bunny in his app. She tends to serve as Reuben’s voice of reason, stating his doubts aloud and questioning his actions. He’s either quick to silence her or engage in debate. She can also be a tad rude, but again Reuben is usually quick to ‘silence’ her and apologize for her outbursts.
Reuben is most open around virgin females and children. Please don’t take it personally; it’s just a unicorn thing. He's extremely innocent and harmless so no worries.
Reuben also has tendencies to sound a little vain about his appearance or skills. Again, do not take it personally. It is the unicorn in him.


♥ H i s t o r y :
Ages ago Reuben was a full unicorn, living in a secluded forest with others of his kind. Being an immortal creature, he had no concept of time and was content to rest in the shade of the trees and nibble the fresh green grasses. The routine was the same day after day…until he finally noticed he was the only one left. The revelation was startling. Even more so since he couldn’t even remember when he’d last seen another one of his herd.
Worried for them, he started to travel more around his forest and explore the areas he’d never bothered to look into before. He never found sign of his brethren, but he did come across something startling. The forest had greatly shrunk from what he’d remembered!
Now on the outskirts instead of plains or rivers there lay buildings and foreign creatures that walked upright and spoke in weird tongues. He’d seen these things once or twice, but hunters were nothing compared to the structures of towns and masses of humans he encountered now. After gathering up enough courage he ventured out and started to explore the town on his own.
Very few recognized what he was. Most just saw him as a simple white horse. How insulting of them! But the children of the town…they were the ones that knew what he was and instantly flocked to him in excitement. They all had such awe on their faces before their parents hurried them away back to their dull lives.
He fell in love with this enchantment. Woodland animals and other unicorns never brightened up the way children did at the sight of him.
From that point on he went from human town to human town, trying to engage with the children there and get that same awe he first experienced. Of course as time went on it became more and more difficult. White horses’ wandering free without an owner was not a common thing. He had to dodge adults who wanted to capture him and virgin maidens who felt he owed them.
Growing tired of the chase before finding children, he decided to blend in. It took a great deal of magic, but he was able to adopt a humanoid form save a few details. The legs were easy enough to hide. The rest he left alone. Like his true form, it seemed only innocents like children could recognize these oddities and still be drawn to him.
If the parents allowed it. Even human form couldn’t prevent their interference. Thus over time he started to adopt methods to be allowed acceptance. He learned language, watched various trades and trends and fashions and entertainment.
But a unicorn was never meant to be human and it took its toll on him. Children he met grew older. Some became sick and died. This shook him up most, unfamiliar to permanent loss. It broke him, finally understanding emotions he’d never had in his forest.
Isabelle would be his first puppet; a tossed toy from one of the deceased and named in her memory. Reuben started to talk to her. And in turn she would respond back. Eventually and unintentionally, he honed an art and started to apply it to entertaining children, sealing all his negative emotions away best he could in an attempt to forget the cruelty and loss he continuously saw.
It was only a matter of time before the unicorn would stumble across a strange ‘festival’ of sorts, noticing the suspended disbelief of children and adults alike where he could be a unicorn to all of them and do what he enjoyed without any real question.
They just needed to say yes to let him join.

His reflection. Not that he thinks there's anything wrong with how he looks, but that's the thing exactly. Unicorn vanity tends to lead to starting at said reflections for extended periods of time.
