RHIANNON

As of 2332, so far as Rhiannon knows, shi has no past beyond about 4 years ago. The only name shi had was "Red", according to the tag on hir collar; shi had always been an adult and hir life had consisted of arena-type combat ending in frenzied sexual displays, and training between fights. Shi was on hir way to yet another bout when the transport rolled over. The driver and handler were killed in the wreck, and perversely, as shi had not been properly secured, shi was flung free rather than being killed hirself. Shi suffered a multiple fracture of one arm and several lacerations and bruises, though shi did not for a second let that slow hir down in seizing the opportunity to escape. Shi ran and jogged through most of the night, putting as much distance as shi could between hirself and the site of the wreck. Shi kept moving until dawn and found shelter in a barn. Shi did hir best to set hir broken arm hirself, but shi couldn't do much about hir other injuries which became infected. Laundry on a clothesline provided hir with clothing; the truck garden provided her with food. This set the pattern for the next few weeks: steal food, sleep where shi could, always keep moving, don't let hir owner find hir. Eventually shi arrived in Melbourne and stumbled - literally - across the Double-H.

Hir immediate medical needs seen to, this young enigma sparked several questions in the doctor looking after hir. Despite hir injuries, shi was extremely fit yet bore several scars and other signs of trauma. Shi had a perfectly normal, apparently functional larynx, but was mute, not making any kind of vocalization. Shi could communicate by writing or using a computer, but had strange gaps in hir knowledge, as if shi had skills without context. And as shi wrote, more and more questions came up, starting with just who and what shi is, and how shi came to be this way.

Hir stay at the Double-H has been formalized into working for hir keep while the police investigate hir, doing cleaning and other odd jobs. Shi is still very apprehensive about being found, though with hir collar removed shi's relaxed somewhat, and shi's extended a tentative trust to the herms who run and manage the club. Shi is also leery of any kind of physical intimacy, to the point that even holding hands makes hir uncomfortable. Shi's still struggling to overcome hir background and suffers moments of aggressive sexuality. However music seems to soothe hir, and shi's taken to lingering at the door for a few moments when a performer is on-stage. Shi’s made a pennywhistle which shi plays privately when shi is feeling especially nervous or insecure. After observing that shi has a particular liking for Celtic music, Francine named hir "Rhiannon."

Physically, shi appears to be a primitive plantigrade equine morph. Shi's covered with a fine coat of horsehair primarily chestnut and cream in a paint pattern resembling an Appaloosa, with an overall look reminiscent of long gloves and thigh-high boots. Shi has a pubic diamond in charcoal black. Hir skin at lips and nipples is a dark chocolate colour. Shi has medium-to-dark auburn hair, roughly cropped at collar length and usually windblown, through which equine ears protrude. Hir tail is long and silky, and the same colour as hir hair. Hir measurements are 36-24-34, 36C cup, well-developed chest, runner’s/dancer’s/swimmer’s build, particularly legs and buttocks. Overall, hir appearance is very human except for the coat of horsehair, equine ears, tail, and penis. The latter is 26cm (10") long and 5cm (2") thick when erect; equiform including medial ring, prepuce & testicles - essentially, a perfectly normal stallion's penis scaled down to human size. Rhiannon's clothing preference is casual and minimal. Shi loves blues and greens in pretty much any shade. Usual attire around the Double-H Club is a blue bikini top and short ‘Daisy Dukes’ (cut-off jeans) shorts. Typically goes barefoot.

Personality (as of 2332): Very shy and withdrawn, though shi can be drawn out with music, either listening or performing. Part of the reason for hir shyness is that shi is mute; the other is that shi knows almost nothing about hirself. Shi has a deep-seated fear of authority figures and of any kind of physical intimacy. Given certain triggers, however, shi becomes hypersexual, displaying extreme satyriasis and aggression. In the latter state, her sexual performance is essentially rape as shi is completely unconcerned with hir partner’s wishes, comfort or pleasure. Music appears to have a soothing effect and reduces both the intensity and duration of this condition.
