Equid's name:
Forgotten Love (Forget)

Personality:
Kind/Caring: Forget is kind as he is caring, though he has had a bit of a rough childhood. He always tries to see the good within everyone he meets. He tries to look at the brighter sides of life and that things happen, we can't control them so Keep Calm and Carry On
Playful: Forget is still a foal which means he is still very playful, to the point of irritation sometimes (actually most of the time) he loves to be with others horses and the closer they are to his age the better.
Charming: Though Forget is annoyingly playful, he does know when to respect and be polite to others, especially older Equids. He knows that he must be good woth others or they won't want to spend time with him anymore. And he doesn't want to be alone.
Dreamer: Forget is a little foal who always loves to have his head in the clouds, he likes the life he has but he always dreams of other things that could happen in his life that would make it...better?

Art or Story: When Forget was born, he was with his mother and father deep in the mountains around the other Equids. He use to play with most of them, but his favorites to play with are Tigress and Stardust. One day while he was exploring the mountian region, he wandered too far and the unperdictable weather of the mountains rolled in. A large thunder storm rolled in, it was raining so hard you could barely see the ground 3 feet away from you and it felt like little stones falling on you.

Forget looked around, squinting his eyes to try and see, he saw a rock that had erroded into a small cave like hid away. He trotted to the cave and looked around, then he heard a growl. A mountain lion had already claimed this shelter for his own, Forget turned and ran as fast as he could. He wasn't sure where he was running and he slowed down. Realizing he could run right off a cliff, so he started walking, trying to find things around him to let him know where he was. But he was so far away from the others he had no idea where he was. The rain was getting worse, wind was now blowing it sideways so Forget hid on the side of a rock where the rain wasn't hitting so hard. He lied down and closed his eyes, drifting off into a deep sleep. He hoped it wouldn't be so bad tomorrow and he could find the others.

When Forget woke up he woke to great dissappointment, the rain was still going strong and had been throughout the night. He stood up and shook himself, the rain had stoked through his coat and he had a horrible chill. Snorting he shivered and started walking again. The rain was so loud on the ground it sounded like beads being shaken in a plastic container, Forget was getting frusterated and whinnied loudly. Straining his hearing to try and locate a reply, but there was none. He squeezed his eyes shut, then opened them and kept walking. He couldn't give up, he had to find the others soon or else...well...he didn't want to think about what would happen.

It had been almost 2 days now since Forget went missing and he was getting hungry. He found a mountain shrug and ate till he was full. While he was eating he noticed that the rain was starting to lighten, he knew he had to take advantage of this and started walking. He could see farther now so he started to run, the food he just ate was already giving him energy. He saw the rock cave he had tried to take shelter in, he wondered if the mountain lion was still inside. He decided to take the chance and walked by, glad to see it was gone. He whinnied again, as loud as he could hoping he was closer to his family. He listened for a few moments but he heard nothing. Then when he started walking again he heard the distrint whinny of his mother, Tranquil. He perked his ears and ran towards where he heard her. He found his mother standing there waiting for him and he ran as fast as he could to her. Running up to her and nuzzling her and licking her face. He saw the others coming over to greet him too, infront of them was Patch, his father, and he licked Forget's hindquaters. Forget flicked his tail and nickered happily, Tranquil place her tail on his back and licked his forehead. Forget nuzzled his parents and snorted happily, he was glad to be home but now that he thought about it. He had just had the best adventure ever...not that he was going to tell Tranquil that. She would probably scold him for that.

Why do you want this equid?:
Well how can I not want him? He has a beatiful coat patterns that ties together very nicely. His eye colour blends well, though is still pronounced and pleasing to see. I think he is super cute as a little foal and I think most my art would be of him as a foal. I saw him and had a personality and story for him right away. Which means he connected with me right away. I've only connected with two other Equids but sadly...I was unable to get them so I hope I get him.

Username:
Equid's name: Burn the Ashes of the Fire. Aka Burn.
Personality: Because of his parents personalities,Burn obviously has a little of both. He has his mother's sense of caring and willingness to talk. He isn't afraid to open his mouth and say what is running through his mind. Even though he has this side to him,he also carries a bit of his father's nature. He doesn't express his feelings,yes,he hides his caring side. He's a bit standoffish and is extremely sarcastic. In the end,he will always defend his loved ones. Although he seems to only be a clone mashed of his parents' genetics,he is his own equid.
Art or Story: I grew up with my caring mother and my fairly sarcastic dad. They were two very different equids. When I was a foal,I didn't understand how the two came to be. I would watch with hopeful eyes,wanting to catch a glimpse of affection. Not once did I spot it. It was like the only thing they had in common was me. As I grew older,I met more equids,and began to understand the ways of my people. I met Soliloquy,whom with her shyness,had a big mouth and even bigger heart. And Cobalt,who was more shy than Solo,and yet stood up for her no matter what. Yet,things were still odd. My father never once nuzzled my mother in the way my two friends did each other. I began to wonder if they ever really loved anyone at all. It was then I heard about father's long time crush,Tigress. I didn't know that he liked Tigress and I wanted so bad to confront him about it. Why didn't he tell mom? And how could he keep this from her? I know she had to see the way he looked at her. Any foal could see it. But I kept my mouth shut for the longest time,until I could no longer take it. She has to know! When I did finally approach my mom,and told her about dad's wandering eyes,she seemed upset,but hid it from me. Like any good parent would. She just sighed and pushed me along,not looking me in the eye. I only hung my head in shame,I thought she would have been happy to know the truth. And not live with a lying stallion. After the look in my mother's eyes,I began to hate my father.

A few days later,I saw her approach my dad,and he shooed her away. I knew I wanted to be a better stallion than my father,a better mate. I mean,my mother was gorgeous mare,how could he not see that she wanted him badly. I never referred to my father as dad after that,it was Patch. He never saw it coming,that his son would no longer love him. He also didn't see my mother leaving him,and taking me with her. He never seemed to catch anything. Now,I am a grown stallion,and I visit my mom often. She is still my favorite mare,and I will do anything and everything for her. But I see that it is my time to branch off and try for my own mate. It's a bit scary,being on your own. It's days like these I want to go back and never tell my mom. Never have seen Patch with Tigress. And maybe never be born,but I can't change any of that. Here I am. My name is Burn the Ashes of the Fire,and I approve this message.
Why do you want this equid?: I have longed for a stallion for some time,and I love this one! I can't want to see who wins,and even if I don't I'll be happy to congratulate the winner.

Sorry for the funky ending. I was tired of it being mopy and sad,so I twisted it.

Equid's name:Kodak Moment a.k.a Kodak
Personality:Kodak is a very high-spirited little Stally. It takes a lot to get his spirit down. He's big on adventure and being spontaneous as well as turning into the biggest lovebug ever. Kodak never takes offense to other people making fun of him and he has a habit of showing them up. He's respectful when it comes to his elders and always accepts the advice they give him. Kodak is a quick learner and never makes the same mistake twice. Kodak is a big dreamer and you can usually find him on the outskirts with his head in the clouds. He dreams of one day leading a herd of his own and having a loving mate and perfect foals of his own. Kodak gets along very well with all the little ones and can really understand where they're coming from. He loves to cheer up others when they're down and can be very deep and thoughtful when he wants to be.
Art or Story:Kodak pranced happily along the cliff side, following after his father. He nickered over to him and hurried to catch up to his side. "So what are we doing today?" he asked excitedly, his ears pricking. Patch turned and smiled to him, his eyes warm. "Patience little one." he chided. Kodak nodded and lowered his head, slowing to a walk. "Sorry father." he mumbled. Patch flicked him gently with his tail and smiled. "I'm going to show you our territory!" he trotted ahead, gesturing for Kodak to follow. Perking up again, not easily dampened, he trotted quickly past his father and up to the cliff ledge. He looked out over the lush forest and hills before him and he gasped softly. "Oh! It's so.... so beautiful!" he murmured. By now Patch was at his side, nodding. "Yes. And one day, it'll be all yours." Kodak turned, his eyes twinkling proudly. He nodded and puffed out his chest proudly. "i won't let you down dad!" he proclaimed. "I know you won't." Patch murmured and nuzzled him gently.
Why do you want this equid?:Well, I've never had an Equid and I was looking through all the other beautiful ones but this one, I just kept coming back to. He's a very attractive little stallion and I want my first Equid to be the this one. His markings are amazing if I might add. I find it very well done how you captured certain focal points from both of the parents, yet made him his own self. I love the patterns that all the Equids had and I hope all the artists' are proud of their work! I hate to sound so mean and all, but I really believe you make the prettiest Equids and I don't even think I'm worthy of one. But i've gotta stay positive and try!

{I really do apologize for not being able to upload pictures... I wish I could but..... well I did draw him however!}

Equid's name: Summer's Thunder
Personality: Summer's Thunder, or Thunder for short, is seen as cocky and arrogant, but on the inside he really is sweet, but only to the ones he loves. Thunder doesn't have one of those perfect personalities of sweetness and kindness, he's actually quite rude at times. He hates being bossed around and will do anything you say if your doubting his abilities in any way. He loves going on adventures and seeing things that he believes hasn't been seen before. He brags about his skills a lot and it appears that he cannot be tamed. He also likes to flirt, and thinks he can get any girl he wants. Deep down though, if he really cares about somebody, he'll go after them, no matter what. If he is insulted or ever proven wrong, he will try to point out the things that he has done right or is good at or try to find excuses. He also has a lot of energy, he loves to run around and play and have fun. He may be jerky sometimes, to try to look good. But at the same time, theres something about him that pulls others in, that makes him likable. Some think its his spirit, and his need to live as if every day was his last, or his love for really seeing things the way they are.
Art or Story: When I was younger, my mother used to take me up to the highest peak of the biggest mountain that we could reach. She would help me climb the rocky slopes, and I remember how she used to elegantly step over the stones, while I watched with longing storm-green eyes and clambered up after her. When we reached the top, I would start to shiver. It would always be cold. I would watch with a curious gaze as my breath made delicate puffs of transparent smoke into the air. My mother would press her fur to mine, and her body warmth would make me feel as if I were sound asleep in the heat of a nice summer day. Sometimes I would watch my mother, look at her soft coat of pale golds and browns, and compare it to my own striking coat of thunder and lightning. Some would say I looked like my mother, with our stripes, I felt that I looked like my father. Although we didn't have exactly the same markings, his coat was striking, bold, screaming out against the others.

Because of my coat, my mother named me Summer's Thunder. I was born on a hot summer day, she told me, and she swears that when a booming crackle of thunder sounded in the distance, I was born. The others think she's just trying to be dramatic and make me somehow more special, but I believe it. My mother isn't one to lie. And when I used to go up to the mountain with my mother, she would tell me that story. I used to like that story, it made me feel special, like I meant something more.

So when I got upset, I would go there. One day, I made the mistake of going alone.

"I dare you to go up, Thunder! Why don't you go live up to your name!" An equid my age sneered, his breath hot against my face. I could feel cold rain starting to splash against my coat, but it felt relieving in the summer's passionate heat. His friend cheered and sneered along with him, their tails lashing in the warm air.

"Fine, I go all the time, why will this time be different?!" I snarled back, ears flat, eyes flashing angrily. I turned around to face the mountain, mist covering its highest depths. Thunder boomed in the distance, making my heart hammer a little harder on my chest. Without looking back, and began to climb. It seemed as if some force didn't want me up there, for the closer I got, the harder the rain seemed to pound on my back. I could hear the Equid sneering below me, making some remark to the others about how a few steps down I had slipped and taken a moment to relieve myself and get up. I finally reached the place where my mother and I went sometimes, and I felt relieved to have gotten there safely.

My mother would take me here for us to see the peacefulness, the serenity. Also, so I could see all the way across the mountains and valleys, I swear that I could see every Equid living here, every bird that flew through our lands at such a speed, every bug and rodent that crawled along the ground. But because it was cold we would never stay too long, and we visited most often in summer. One time she took me at night, when a full moon was there to light up the earth. Everything was truly beautiful and magnificent, and I was happy that it was ours, me and my mothers. Nobody else's little place. It was a place to forget the horrible things in the world, where you can just let go.

"Its a place to drop your unwanted memories." My mother said to me the first time we went together. I had looked at her with wide curious eyes. "What does that mean? If you come here, does it erase your memories?!" I had asked, frightened. My mother had chuckled slightly, her calm eyes easing my fear. "No no, my little storm, this is a place where you can just be free of anything that is holding you down." She had said. I didn't understand, but I followed her anyway. I still don't quite understand.

"See? Not so bad!" I taunted from above, voice stronger and more confident. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning seemed to flash right before my eyes, and thunder seemed to crackle right in my ear. I whimpered, jumping back. I should have known this wasn't a good idea, but at least now they wouldn't think I was a wimp. My stormy green eyes watched the rain pour harder, like a cold shower of small icicles. I started to venture down, but it was really slippery. I cried out as I felt my back leg buckle as I tripped over a rock. A stumbled down, luckily a bigger rock was in front of me so I was caught from slipping any more. My legs ached, my body tingled with fear and cold. Finally I made it down, and the equids had long gone. "Babies." I muttered to myself as I trotted back home, not admitting defeat. I held my head high and my chin up, eyes flashing with dignity and pride. I hoped that I had proven once and for all that I would accept any challenge, and beat it. The thunder crackling in the skies is also in my hooves, I thought to myself as I began to run, speed flowing into me like water sliding down my throat as I sipped it from the ponds and puddles. I wondered if I should tell my mother, but I decided to keep it a secret. I didn't want to get into trouble, that would only cause more teasing. I knew one day, I would do something no equid had ever done before, and show them all that I, Summer's Thunder, was a creature of storm.
Why do you want this equid?: Today is one of my first days of summer vacation and I was sitting at home watching the skies cloud and rain start to pour hard. Every time I heard the crackle of thunder, I felt a little jolt of excitement, not really sure why, and it was really loud too. This continued all day, and all I could also not stop thinking about is my horse back riding lesson tomorrow because I was excited to ride this new to me horse. I've ridden him twice before, and all the other horses I've ridden were lazy. But he was so fast and spirited, he kinda reminded me of thunder and lightning. So I kept thinking about how much I wanted a horse-like character that would demonstrate these qualities, from a design and personality. I was browsing around CS, looking at the created pets to see if I would find something and I saw this little guy. I saw him a couple of days before, but I didn't see what I would use him for. Now I just can't help but notice how striking but natural his coat is, because the stripes are black on the inside and fade to a pale tan color on the outside, it reminds me of lightning. Also the darker browns along his spine and neck seem like dark storm clouds, and as you look lower onto his body, it seems to get calmer, because down on the ground is much calmer than up in the storm itself. I don't know if this sounds weird or not, its a little hard to describe it, but he's just... striking! Theres something about him thats screaming out to me. I've never owned a WME before, and I would love for him to be my first. Something just clicks with him, its this strange connection thats making me make all of these background stories and traits and characteristics, I can just so perfectly picture him in my mind, his personality I mean, by just looking at him. Well, thanks for the opportunity and beautiful design and species!
