Contest - Billie

My entry for this contest:
Character Design Contest!Hello everyone! I am hosting a character design contest ^.^ It's really simple to enter and I hope the prizes are OK. Sorry I can't give much more, but I'm kinda... poor  
All you have to do to enter this contest is make anything more complicated than a very rough sketch of a fullbody creature; anthro, human, animal, magical creature, original species... there are few limits (see the rules).
I would like it if you themed your creation around any of these three themes/animals: Aries ♈︎, Mages/Knights, or any animal.

You will be judged on creativity, effort, uniqueness, and simplicity. I don't want anything super duper complicated and hard to draw; please keep it simple.
This contest closes on October 17th, but I might extend it. That happens to be my half-birthday
RULES
DO:
– credit whatever sources you use, make sure you're allowed to use them, etc
– post


Strange things happen when I'm chatting with FionaCreates and flipping through group messages.  In this case, a roller derby girl!  One of the contest themes was Aries (as in the western zodiac sign), so I rolled with it.

*is shot*

I'm not big on zodiac stuff, especially the Greek one, so I'm not sure if it's like the Chinese ram (which there seems to be some internet confusion over whether the ram is a sheep or a goat) or whether it's a specific animal, or whether the contest host even cares.  So!  I have a few suggestions for her derby name:  Billie Go Tough, Billie Goat Rough, Baba Brown Sheep, and Betty Black Sheep.

*wrestles the gun away from the shooter*  Ha!  You can't shoot me for those ones!  Roller derby names are traditionally punny!

Other themes for the contest were knights, mages, music, and almost this entire color scheme.  It makes sense to me that-- since Baba Black Sheep is a nursery song and Three Billy Goats Gruff is a nursery story that I've heard told as a song, and roller derby seems pretty jazzy all by itself-- this character should like music in some form.  Maybe she whistles or has her iPod hooked up to a mini speaker on her belt, I don't know.  Maybe she owns yuumei's Axentwear headphones.  These things seem plausible.  Given that she's missing ALL her protective derby gear and is carrying a pair of strange, ram's-horn-like objects, like maybe she plans to bash somebody with them, it also seems totally plausible that her other serious hobby is skating around town in the dead of night, fighting spectral monsters, ghosts, and powerful apparitions that threaten her city.  Magical Derby Girl!

Put that gun away, it wasn't technically a pun.

If it doesn't win, keep it anyway.  I already know that I don't have a place to use her, and this was just for fun.   Enjoy!
