[b]Height:[/b] 5’ (without horns), 5’10 (with horns)

[b]Weight:[/b] 104 lbs

[b]Physique:[/b] Perci’s body is not conventionally masculine. Combined with his small stature, he appears slim.

[b]Appearance:[/b]
Perci is a relatively short, fuzzy goat. All of his fur is naturally pure white, except for his ears and tail, which are dark grey in color. Similarly, Perci’s horns are also dark. One horn on his left broke in half a few years ago. His eyes are actually dark brown, but he wears red-pink contacts pretty often outside of class. Perci, being an Angora goat, has fur that can grow quite long, but to keep cool during the warmer months he shaves it down. When his fur is longer, it is noticeably curly, and due to being small for even a goat, he has been mistaken for a sheep. This offends him greatly.

Perci’s fashion style reflects his rejection of gender roles- and most of society. He wears makeup and dresses in dark, mostly black clothing that reflects his interest in goth and punk subcultures. Many accessories of his have leather straps or metal spikes and chains. Perci puts a lot of effort into his outfits because he enjoys looking nice. However, when low on time, he’s an oversized t-shirt/hoodie guy. Sometimes, he will impulse buy a humorous shirt for ironic use.  

[b]Personality:[/b] Perci knows he is small, even for a goat. Instead of being timid, he has more of a reason to stand his ground when needed. However, large carnivores still intimidate him if he does not know them. Perci is usually a relaxed person who likes to cause occasional (harmless) mischief. In the friend group, he is considered to usually be the rowdiest. That being said, he’s reserved at work and in class. He can be accurately described as the quiet kid who doesn’t take any shit- because he doesn’t. Perci is surprisingly confrontational when pushed. Being an art major, Perci is extremely creative. He likes making things, especially art and music. 

[b]Backstory:[/b] Perci was raised by both of his parents, both goats, up until his teen years. They split when he was around 12, and while both still love him dearly, he had to move out with his mother. He visited his father regularly and still does. The sudden change and constant moving made Perci’s teens start off rough, but he’s glad it led him to discover goth fashion-

Learning to express himself really helped Perci cope. He was able to establish a sense of self through his new artistic hobbies. He had been drawing since he was young, but music and fashion were new and exciting for him. Though he had an identity through art, not all of Perci’s problems would solve themselves.

He learned how mean the world could be as he grew. Perci was assaulted in his senior year of high school for his self-expression, sexuality, and species. He lost half of his horn from an accident caused during the fight. Though he wasn’t a stranger to discrimination, it made him think. The summer leading up to university was a time of deep introspection for him.

Perci found some solace through what he loved most- art. Art brought people together and often made difficult subjects a bit easier to talk about. Most importantly, for Perci, he could share what made him happy with others. Ultimately, it’s what led him to want to become a digital artist in the game industry. He could, hopefully, make media that might help the world be a bit more accepting. He chose to go to EU specifically because of how diverse it was. Perci longed for a fresh start and a change of pace.

Currently, Perci is a college junior. He lives on-campus in a dorm, and was a barista part-time for a coffee shop before picking up an internship at a studio. He is intimidated by his future- and the seven-foot-tall maned wolf that is his classmate, Marcello, but that is a story that is currently unfolding.

[b]Class:[/b] Middle-class

[b]Occupation:[/b] Perci is currently working for his Bachelor’s Degree at EU. His major is computer art/animation for video games. Depending on the time, Perci could be a part-time barista or intern at a studio.

[b]Relationships:[/b] Angeline (angora goat) - Mother, Darwin (angora goat) - Father, Fenzi - Close friend (American fuzzy lop rabbit), Marcello (maned wolf) - ????[/hider]
