Name: Coelho Observador (Means 'Bunny Observer' in Portuguese)
Nickname/Alias(es): He's called 'Coel' by his parents as a nickname.
Race: Earth Pony
Gender: Male
Age: Foal
Additional Status: He wears a green hat given to him by his father. It's a bit too big for him and sometimes falls over his eyes. He's also mute.
He's learned to mouth words with the help of Mirror Chime and Echo Reflect. He's not exactly perfect at it, but if somebody could read lips, then they might be able to understand him well enough.
-Physical Stuff-
Pelt Color: White
Mane/Tail Color and Style: His mane and tail are a shade of very light red. His mane is fairly fluffy and poofy, having some cowlicks around it, while his tail is very short, having a light grey tip to it.
Eye Color: At first they may look pure black, but a second look will indicate that they're really a very dark shade of violet.
Cutie Mark: His cutie mark is an animal pent house made of wood. By it is a bowl with a single carrot in it.
Other Scars/Markings: N/A
Physique: He's very nimble, being able to catch up to some of the faster rabbits and hares he has. His ears flop down by themselves and he can't make them go up, so others may often assume that he's afraid or intimidated by them.

-Personality Stuff-
Likes: The rabbits and hares that are kept by the cottage he lives in, he always makes sure to take care of them the best he can, even catering to some of their special interests. He likes those who will be good owners for the rabbits and hares that he helps to sell. He likes those that aren't too bossy or loud, as he finds it easier to communicate with others that are quiet and calm. He likes making his parents proud, or at least likes the idea that he somehow made them proud. He enjoys helping others in whatever they might need, as it makes him feel like he isn't being useless. He likes being with one or two, or perhaps even three friends at most. He also likes making new friends if he's able to.
Dislikes: He doesn't like those that will look like they're going to abuse his rabbits and hares, or even if they have the intention of using them for food, as he finds the thought very disturbing, and will usually refuse to sell any rabbits or hares to others he suspects of doing either. He doesn't like those that are very bossy or loud as he finds it harder to communicate with them. He doesn't like it when he feels he's being a bother and will quickly go away from someone he thinks he's bothering. He doesn't like being around crowds or groups, as they make him feel overwhelmed and somewhat shyer. Though he's often alone, he doesn't really like it, wanting to make friends with others but finds it hard to do so without the use of a voice.
Motivation: To give his rabbits and hares to good homes, to make his parents proud, finding an easier way to communicate with others.
Strengths: Though he cannot talk with others due to his muteness, he is a very good listener, always listening to each word and rarely ignoring what anyone is saying to him. He takes very good care of his rabbits and hares, even being able to identify them individually. Because of this, he can understand others personalities somewhat, mainly to find the perfect rabbit/hare for them. He's a very eager helper, all it really takes is for you to mention that you need help and he'll be there to help, being loyal to the task he was assigned to until it's done, unless you tell him to stop said task.
Weaknesses/Flaws: Due to his muteness, he finds it hard to communicate with others and often stays by himself and because of this he feels overwhelmed by crowds and groups, unsure of how he could possibly convey a message to a whole group. He will often do tasks that he's asked to do without question unless he finds he cannot do said task, which means that it could be very easy to trick him, though he's not exactly stupid, you just have to have the right tone of voice and acting. He often doubts himself, sometimes thinking that he must have upset or disappointed others, though he's quite happy if he realizes that he didn't. He can be too trusting of others, perhaps because he wants friends so badly. He doesn't show his emotions much, most of the time having a neutral expression on his face nor does he share much about himself to others.
Fears: Disappointing or being trouble to anyone, especially his parents, anything happening to his rabbits or hares.
Overall Persona: Coelho looks very much like a bunny, having a short tail, a white coat, almost pitch black eyes, and even floppy ears. So many might assume that he has the 'personality' of a bunny, being shy and cowardly, when really he's not that shy or cowardly, though he does tend to feel quite uncomfortable around crowds and groups.
His father, RoundUp, specializes in herding animals that may have gone astray from the group, while his mother specializes in making various quilts and fixing them up, along with knowledge of other various things involving sewing. Both were very chatty and outgoing, so they were fairly surprised to see their son not speaking, even at a very late age where it was expected for foals to speak. After some time they learned that their son was mute.
Because of his muteness he found it difficult to communicate with the other foals and fillies, many of them dismissing him as being 'weird' or even 'snobbish', this made him think that no one would really care about him due to his muteness and so he stayed alone, not going to any fillies or foals, though he really wanted to, he thought it would all just end in awkward silence. This also caused him to think that perhaps his parents were disappointed in him, always explaining to others about his muteness when they were around.
He got his cutie mark when he started playing around the forest more often, particularly going to the rabbits and hares. He didn't scare them off much due to how quiet he could be and soon began bringing them food and even grooming them sometimes. When he found that they began staying around the cottage he lived in, he built a pen house for them, though despite his efforts it was rather... Unstable. His father noticed the penhouse and the rabbits and decided to built a better on, along with a fence to keep in some store bought rabbits and hares he got for Coelho. His parents began advertising to sell the rabbits and hares when they had too many than their hooves could handle.
