Description

Name: Isabella
Nicknames: Isa
Gender: Mare
Age: 4 as a horse, 21 as a human
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 14.3 hh, 5'6 as a human
Crush/Mate: Nope.
Offspring: Nope. 
Personality: Isabella used to be a spitfire, driving everyone in her family up the walls and being the life of the party. You could not get her to slow down, it was go go go! But after she was abused, she grew skiddish. Isabella hardly trusts anyone now, male or female. She cries herself to sleep often, simply from her lingering anxiety. She tries to not let her past control her though, to be stronger, and to not be scared of everything. Let's say she does allow you to befriend her, she'll shy away from you instantly if you try to get close to her or touch her, and she has a hard time opening up about everything. You have to be gentle and slow with her, or you can lose her trust and friendship instantly. 
History: Isabella had a relatively normal life growing up in her family herd. They treated her kindly, mostly because she was the herd leaders daughter, and was highly respected. She was heavily sought after by stallions too because of her unique coloring. 
But at about the age of 2 her father start verbally abusing her. Then it developed into physical and sexual abuse as well. He raped her and beat on her constantly, and her mother just stood by and watched it happen, not even caring. The rest of the herd never even knew what was going on. Isabella ran away frequently but she always came back simply because she couldn't survive on her own, and the beatings were always worse when she returned. 
Her body no longer belonged to her anymore, it was her fathers little play toy. But she did have one thing she could control. Her hair. See, in her herd all the mares had long hair. The longer your mane and tail were, the more desirable you were. It was practically an unspoken law that you couldn't cut your mane, and the opposite for stallions, they must keep their manes short. Isabella was lucky in that her hair had always naturally grown fast and was already dragging at the ground at age 3.
On her last night at home she got her friend to help her shred her mane off. It came out wonky, her forelock and a chunk of her mane longer than the rest. But she didn't care.
Her father was furious. He pushed her to the ground in front of the whole herd, leaving bruises and cuts all over her body. When she finally got up, she bolted. He thought she would come back, but she didn't. Isabella still has urges to go back, to face him, to make amends. Everyone she knows has a close bond with their parents, and she's lacked that kind of love for so long. She would kill to be able to resolve her issues with her father, or at least stand up to him and show him she's stronger now.. but she knows that's just not possible.

Yay! Finally got it uploaded. :P
The new drawing format for references was inspired by =CrystalUniicorn :P
I made some alterations to Isabella, mostly with her personality and history. I thought the spunky short hair type looked really fab on her so ye.
