BUN-222: Horizon
HORIZON
Compassionate · Warmhearted · Reliable · Gentle
Horizon, a gentle giant with a knack for bringing peace to any gathering, grew up as the calmest of his littermates. Even as a baby bun, his relaxed nature and love for naps set him apart, as did his readiness to help friends like Azalea and Cosmos through their various squabbles and adventures. His easygoing demeanor earned him a reputation as a natural mediator, always bringing a steady energy to those around him. True to his roots, Horizon kept his gentle presence into adulthood, forming a close-knit group with his childhood friends and expanding his circle with new ones he met on his daily wanderings.
Now, Horizon channels his calm and welcoming personality into his work as a wellness retreat coordinator. He organizes gatherings across Burrowgatory’s lush, grassy fields and scenic spots, setting up events where buns can unwind, meditate, and stretch with his guidance. Known for his laid-back approach, Horizon's retreats attract buns of all kinds who crave an escape from the city’s bustle. Outside of work, he can often be found napping in his favorite fields or preparing meals and tidying up the home he shares with his roommate, Orca, who keeps things lively while Horizon ensures their space stays cozy and serene.

Design Notes
Horizon’s design captures his gentle, approachable nature with soft features and a steady, grounded look. His ear length in his human form is short, never reaching past his elbows, keeping him sleek yet still distinctly rabbit-like. Cloud patterns across his chest reflect his laid-back and easygoing personality, adding a touch of calm to his overall appearance. His satyr legs blend from skin to fur with a smooth gradient, emphasizing his natural connection to the world around him. In his human form, his white lashes give him a serene look, while his bun form features gold lashes, adding a warm touch to his gentle giant charm.
Trivia
- Horizon can always predict when it’s about to rain or get chilly, which makes him everyone’s go-to for outdoor plans.
- He can nap just about anywhere, but he claims the best naps are taken under a specific type of tree with the “perfect shade and breeze.”
- Horizon has an elaborate stretching routine he does first thing every morning, rain or shine, often convincing nearby buns to join him in impromptu stretching sessions.
- He’s extremely careful with his strength and always worried about accidentally breaking things—or other buns, for that matter.
Relationships
Cosmos and Horizon have been close since they were little buns, though their personalities couldn’t be more different. Where Cosmos thrives on flair, attention, and indulgence, Horizon is calm, grounded, and prefers a laid-back life. Despite (or perhaps because of) these differences, Horizon has become something of a balancing force for Cosmos, keeping him in check when his diva moments go a bit overboard. Cosmos, in turn, has a knack for dragging Horizon into the more luxurious side of Burrowgatory, introducing him to glamorous spots he’d otherwise avoid. Together, they make an odd but well-matched pair, with Cosmos adding a bit of sparkle to Horizon’s life and Horizon bringing Cosmos back down to earth.
Horizon and Azalea share a natural bond that has lasted since their earliest days, with Horizon often acting as her steady, dependable counterpart. Azalea’s endless curiosity and tendency to dive into random “collecting adventures” might lead her into trouble, but Horizon’s calm, protective nature ensures she rarely faces it alone. He’s there to keep an eye out when her clumsiness strikes, offering his gentle support without hesitation. Their friendship is built on a quiet understanding, with Horizon's easygoing nature complementing Azalea's adventurous spirit, making them an inseparable duo that’s both reliable and endlessly fun.
Horizon and Ripper, or “Orca” as Horizon fondly calls him, have a close and easygoing roommate dynamic that just works. Ripper brings home the money and keeps the place lively, while Horizon takes care of the meals and keeps things clean. Despite Ripper’s bold personality, Horizon’s calm and steady energy balances him out, creating a relaxed vibe in their home. The two are great friends who respect each other’s space and quirks, making their household a perfect retreat from Burrowgatory’s bustling chaos.
Horizon and Anidori, or Dori as he’s often called, share a friendly but cautious rapport thanks to their mutual connection with Cosmos. While Horizon’s calm and kind-hearted nature contrasts with Dori’s sharper, more unsettling edge, they’ve found a mutual respect that keeps things steady between them. Dori occasionally surprises Horizon with his dark humor and bold moves, but Horizon’s patience and easygoing personality allow him to brush it off, seeing it more as a curious quirk than a threat. Together, they make for an interesting pair in Cosmos’ circle, balancing each other out in unexpected ways.
