Username: Lichenfeather
Show Name: Battle of One
Barn Name: Bellona {{the Roman goddess of war}}
Breed: Marwari
Gender: Mare
Age: 8
Color: Cherry Bay Tovero
Height: 16hh
Disposition: Bellona is unlike any of our other horses. Aside from our ever-growing Arab herd, most are laid-back, plains dwelling breeds, content to snooze in the pasture, or perhaps romp with the younger studs for a short time, before returning to their ever watchful grazing. Bellona, though, is at the other end of the scale. While most horses find comfort in herds, with friends and pasture-mates, this blood-bay mare actively seeks solitude. For whatever reason, the company of other equines just doesn't suit her. She does not, however, mind human company. Around people she is the bravest mare you could ever hope to meet. She will take on anything, and anyone in order to please the few she trusts. It is not a difficult job to gain her trust, simply a time consuming one. Once, however, you have earned this trust, you have a spirited and loyal partner who will take arms against any and all that seek to harm you.
Discipline: Finding a discipline to suit our spirited war-mare was a difficult endeavor. Originally, we intended for her to be a dressage horse, all fancy gaits and flashy coat. However, as soon as we met her, we immediately understood that this would not be a good choice for her. Instead, we decided to try her in the competitive world of show-jumping. This, unfortunately, did not go well. It was not that Bellona was unable to jump, it was, unfortunately, rather the opposite. Bellona approached leaping things with such passion it was becoming dangerous for both her and others. After a few instances of Bellona ploughing down jumps, leaping people and charging cars, we retired her from this sport. We were at a loss of what to do with her until someone suggested mounted archery. Amazingly, Bellona took to it like a fish to water. From there, we have progressed to all sorts of mounted combat. Bellona is turning out to have a real desire for battle, and we could have no better mare to do it.
If I am lucky enough to win this lovely mare than honestly, I'd like to keep her locked away safely forever. However, I bet you would want a foal, so I'd allow a few breedings, as long as the stallion was of a refined desert breed.
