2nd character I'll be submitting to the FBA draft this year~

I haven't come across a whole lot of bovines yet either (though there are so,e neat ones already) but what really drew me to making a character of this species is my love for the character design trope of hair covering the eyes, and the fact that highland cattle are adorable~

Anywho, a little about Hedvin..

Occupation: Amateur Basketball Player
Position: Center
Playing History: Hedvin, throughout his entire amateur basketball career, has always flourished while playing as a center. Thanks to an early growth spurt that left him him towering above most of his classmates in middle and high school, Hedvin was almost always guarantee to get the jump ball, with the only exceptions being against opponents that were taller or just slightly faster than him. Aside from the jump ball victories, Hedvin also has a talent for catching rebounds, though he typically passes them since his shooting aim leaves a little to be desired, but when on the defensive, Hedvin dominates.

Defense, most of his past teammates would say, is his true specialty. When focused on keeping his targets away from the net Hedvin is a wall, with his height and and his powerful legs helping him maintain a solid stance that is difficult for smaller opponents to either move him or get around him. When facing an opponent that is a match in terms of size and strength, Hedvin is a little more active and instead focuses on getting as many 'rejections' as he can. Still, in spite of his defensive roles and near-antagonistic rejections, Hedvin still manages to maintain a calm and almost carefree demeanor which often (and unintentionally on Hedvin's part) infuriates some of his short-tempered opponents.

More to come..
