Who am I? Jadeghost; mostly referred to as Jade.
What is the dragon's name? This handsome boy will be known as Ryoma. In the Japanese language, it is the combination of two words: "Ryu" meaning dragon, and "Ma" meaning horse. The literal translation is dragon horse, and it is pronounced "Ree-YO-ma." Nicknames include "Ryo" or simply "Ry".
How old is the dragon? Ryoma is in the "teen" years for a WTE; only around 5 years old, and has plenty of life to live!
Drako or Dragoness? Ryoma is 100% stallion, and will not hesitate to prove it.
How to you carry yourself, noble dragon?
Ryoma is not a horse that can be described in a few words. His personality is something that has shaped and defined him ever since he was a young colt, still unsteady on his legs. Back then, he remained quite innocent and rather blind to all the world had to offer. His mother was protective of her only son; given that Ryoma was her first colt to survive past its first year. His mother practically forced her son to remain by her side much longer than he should have; consequently, Ryoma was quite unprepared when he tumbled headfirst into the real world.
While his mother raised him to be kind, honest, and caring, Ryoma turned his back on these qualities for quite a long time; since he felt that his mother did not prepare him enough for the hardships he had to face all on his own. While he has these qualities buried deep within him, he does not usually allow them to resurface. While he is honest, he tends to be brutally so, and is not afraid to speak the truth even if it hurts. Most of his outbursts are quite unintentional though, and Ryoma usually quickly regrets his actions. Still, he cannot stop himself, nor can he change who he was raised to be. In this way he has many sides of him; it just depends on the day you catch him.
How tall is the dragon? 16hh

I'm not sure if it counts, but if coloring in a lineart counts as artistic skill then I'll take what I can get XD Believe me, I tried my hardest to draw my own version of him, but I am no artist, and equines are especially hard for me. But writing is one of my true passions, as I hope you will be able to tell from his story, which is below♥ Enjoy!тнє ᴅяαgoи ιѕ яєαᴅу...Hooves beat the ground in the pounding rhythm of a terrified heart; almost sounding louder than the thunder that boomed above them. The rain fell mercilessly and poured over them in steady waves. Lightning flashed at the same moment as a deafening thunderclap, which proved that the storm was upon them. The bolt illuminated their terrified eyes and only sent the herd into more of a frenzy; still, they remained together as one single unit. Even in their terror, they knew that to split would only mean the death of them.
Another flash; and even though he had done nothing to stand out on his own, the light illuminated the coat of a single golden coat. Compared to the rest of his herd, he stood out like a single golden coin in a sea of brown. The fear stricken colt could do nothing more than press himself harder and harder to his mother's side, but this was proving difficult as the storm only began to worsen. The older mare was having a hard time keeping up; not only because of her age, but because of the colt that hindered her. He was nearing the age where her should be learning to fend for himself, but she refused to let him. No, Ryoma still needed her guidance. That was what she told herself despite what she knew in her heart: that her baby did not need her anymore.
Lightning struck the plain just ahead of them; nearly hitting the lead stallion. And then the herd scattered; no longer bothering to listen to the orders of their leader as their survival instincts began to kick in. They picked up on his panic and could stand to remain together no longer. The presence that had once comforted them had now become a poison. Ryoma's mother let out a startled whinny as she no longer felt the comforting presence of her colt by her side; he was more of a reassurance to her than she was to him, even though he would surpass her in size all too soon.
The colt struggled to his feet after being forced to the ground and trampled by another large equid; finally, he struggled to his feet. He could see his mother up ahead, but something held him back from her. His heart hardened as he stared at the mare that had been his only friend up until this point; but through no fault of his own. It was her who had held him back for nearly two long years.
Ryoma stood at the very peak of the hill; his golden coat illuminated by the lightning that continued to flash all around them. His normally impressive feathery tail was now drenched and the hair was forced to lay flat: his long, powerful legs were streaked with mud. Yet somehow, he looked the farthest thing from weak. His horns, which had fully formed about a month ago, were sharp and ready to defend himself if need be. His heart, which had been fluttering in panic just a moment before, had suddenly become calm and steady. His eyes stared straight ahead in determination, and he pawed the angry earth with one of his strong legs.
The dragon was ready. A whole world was waiting for him. As his mother continued to scream her sorrow to whoever would listen, the young colt disappeared into the dark forest; never looking back, and ready to tell his own story.
Why does Jade want this dragon?
Ryoma is just...perfect in every way. From his dun coloration (which is my favorite base color on horses), to the faint stripes on his legs, to his dark green eyes, to the splash of white on his main body, he has to be my favorite design of this species to date. Your dragon series is lovely Midnight, and I already have the honor of owning one of those stallions but I would love to own another. He is amazing and I know whoever gets him in the end will spoil him to pieces; I surely will!♥
Congrats
