rose mother :: Enya ref

This is Enya Henrik, formerly Enya Phoebus, and originally Enya Damara. She is of course the mother of Taliene and Rutilus, and later the adoptive mother of Jared.

Her build is a bit odd, which is intentional; I think she was very underweight when she first entered the forest with Amicus Phoebus, being in her teens at the time and going through some eating disorder issues with Amicus helped her through. Strangely, while her human self has aged quite a bit by now, her deer self is still very young, seemingly frozen at the physical age of a young adult - perhaps because she was one of the 'old' deer of the forest, which never seemed to age.

She has the neck-marking that Rutilus inherited, and the grass-green eyes that Julia would eventually have, too. Taliene's eyes are/were a much muddier green.

As well as the gold marking, Enya also has white splashes (and white hind hooves) which may have contributed to Taliene (and later Julia) having a white splash on her chest rather than Amicus' grey splash.

Enya wore a realdeer mask. When Amicus first introduced her to the forest she was, understandably, frightened by the prospect of human-faced deer and sought to look as normal as possible. Later she would grow sharp prongs atop her head as a means of defence, despite her wishes to appear as a normal doe.

I'm considering actually playing Enya, Amicus and Apollo inforest from time to time. I love them.

As always the original lineart belongs to Moss, but I've edited it quite a bit. I even made the front leg thinner |8
