Stable Name: Angi
Gender: Mare
Height: 17hh
Halter colour: black with silver hardware
Prompt:
Angi had been born a sickly filly and was taken the healers early in life. Learning from them as she grew stronger by the day. There she made use of her predicament to learn from these masters of medicine. Finding out what plant or method of application did what, and how it would help heal those in need. By the time she was deemed healthy she no longer wished to leave, but the ache for her family grew too strong. On the journey back she feared that they would not recognize her. Had they moved on? Perhaps accepted she may be lost to her illness and be distant upon her arrival? With these worries she was deep in thought when the scent of daffodils entered the scene. There she stared in awe at her herds welcome. Daffodils that speckled the ground with bright patches of yellow. Flowers that she knew ment "Welcome Home!"

Daffodils mean new beginnings and Angi battled her way to survival for that future, not letting her frail state to define her. Now a days it wouldn't be odd to see them weaved into her mane, never the same flowers twice except for the ever present Daffodils.

Gender: Mare
Height: 16.2hh
Halter colour: Arctic thyme purple! (With iron grey metal :>)
Prompt: Flitter's favorite flower is Arctic Thyme, also called Wild Thyme... It's a plant native to Iceland, the place she was born and raised. She remembers very fondly her days as a filly, frolicking and playing (though always near her mother's watchful eye of course) through fields carpeted in the beautiful purple hued flowers... And she remembers, too, the scent they made, as her hooves made their way through the delicate leaves and petals, the aroma of thyme bathing her nose, strong and heady; potent yet welcome... Even though she's grown now, and no longer frolics with her mother in those fields, she can clearly recall the sight and scent of them every time she closes her eyes and pictures the place she was born... The scent of thyme brings her immense comfort, even though the thyme found in most other places of the world isn't the same, it still makes her think every time of those days as a carefree filly, and to this day her favorite color is anything in that shade of purple.
