::Mental Disorders::
::General:: Disillusioned, prideful and bitter, Vienne is someone to be reckoned with.
First of all, don't ever call him girly. That his fur is lavender and his hair is pink is perhaps a cruel twist of ironic fate, and serves only to remind him of his de-manned status more, and if anyone notices it, he gets quite twitchy and annoyed. He's got a quick temper, and it tends to smolder, so he holds a grudge. He's not girly, effeminate, or any of those things-- he doesn't mind those traits in other people, but on him? No. Just no. Calling him anything of the sort will wound his ego, and wounding his ego is something you just don't do.
He's also proud. Born into a rich family, should've continued the bloodline-- but he didn't. Because he was castrated, in order to "preserve his voice" and make it easier for his younger brothers to benefit. He resents this with all of his being- he wanted that life, he'd been raised for it. That it was taken from him fills him with such resentment and anger that one shouldn't mess with him when he's thinking of it. And yet, he retains his familial pride, particularly since he is more masculine than most of the other Eunuchs he knows. He's also very proud of his voice, though it cost him so much-- he is THE best singer around (or one of them, anyways), and you're going to bow to him for that, damnit.
A lot of what he does is filled with anger-- his stage performances, everything. An arrogant sort of anger. He's cold, cruel, and unpredictable. If he doesn't like, for example, how the prima donna is singing her lines in an opera, he will, when he should be singing his own lines, sing hers, in a mockingly beautiful tone. Subtle cruelty, but cruel nonetheless.
In private, he's marginally better-- but only marginally. He's calm, though still distinctly bitter, and not quite so much of a massively spoiled brat. He's also not cruel to people he knows, unless you say something really bloody stupid or hurtful, in which case he'll reply sarcastically.  He drives people away on purpose-- why, though, even he can't say. However, he's fairly loyal, if a tad sardonic, if you do stay past his bitter moodswings and generally growly atmosphere.
Recently, he's moved away from the mirror Venice of his homeland, which was only serving to make him more bitter, at the shaman's insistence, and it has calmed him significantly. He's now being urged to acquire a bonded somewhere, in hopes that this will distract him from his past bitterness some more, as well as giving him a worthwhile relationship to manage. He'd be good at it, if he didn't drive people off, and even he's not stupid enough to drive a bond off.

~~History~~
::Former Location:: Mirror eighteenth century Venice
::If Relevant:: I hate histories. So much easier to roleplay, but urgh. History~
Born the first of a pair of twins to a rich patrician's family in the mirror Venice world, he lived the good life and was trained, more than his twin brother was, in carrying on the family name and being an important political figure in the Venice of the time period. Things were going well-- he was the heir, as he'd been born first (even though he and his brother were twins), and he was going to continue living well up until he was old and had to pass on his title to his sons. He was also good at singing, and that his voice would change was only mildly worrying to him, as the benefits would far outweigh the consequences.
His twin was, however, a sneaky little devil, and had made friends with The-Wrong-Sort-Of-People, and, to make a long story short, arranged to have him castrated so he would no longer be able to have kids and thusly be unable to continue the line of their house. It went through, and they sent Vienne to a conservatory, to learn to sing. Vienne was, of course, bitter as hell about this, but he got good at it, and successful. His twin had won, but he became world famous in the Operas, traveling and whatnot. Life became monotonous, however, and he quit that eventually, when the strain began to show on the overstressed unicorn. The shaman forced him to move to modern noctournicus, to get out of that stagnant world of his, and is now trying to get him to bond something.

~~Personality~~
::General:: Minran is as proud as his rider, but not nearly so vindictive or bitter. In fact, he's usually quite optimistic, adding an opposite point of view to his rider's constant cynicism. This is probably good, since Vienne needs that sort of thing, and Minran is one of the only two people who Vienne won't attack for offering it. He's a proud little dragon, and you wouldn't tell by looking at him that he's amongst the smallest of his clutch at his natural size. He walks and holds himself with that self-assuredness that comes with the thought that there isn't something he can't do. He likes exercising his abilities, and often shows off- particularly for dragons he finds pleasing. He is a tad combative, and his response to opposition is to fight, rather than talk his way out of something. In general, he's a tad hot-headed, which would get him into trouble, if Vienne didn't keep him in line most of the time. He does spar with other dragons-- carefully, so as to not take it to the point where they actually hurt one another-- and he probably wouldn't hesitate to get into a real fight, if not for the fact that he's never been pushed that far before and because Vienne has taken the liberty of engraving into his mind that fighting is beneath a creature of his status. He's also a tad talkative, and if you get him started, he's perfectly willing to talk you around in circles on any subject he knows anything about.
