Welcome to Crowntail Racers Adoption Agency! Here, you may browse our lovely selection of the infamous Crowntail, a rare and treasured equine species native to the coasts of Thailand. Lucky for you, our agency specializes in obtaining and breeding these beauties a little bit closer to home. These beasts range from 10 to 14 hands (3 - 4 ft), and average anywhere from 500 to 900 pounds. Despite their tranquil appearance, they are known as ferocious fighters with harshly controlled dictatorship style packs. However, they can be easily tamed in captivity, and may even be ridden by their trainers.

Gender: Stallion
What they miss:
In the quiet of the morning, soft light drifting through the fog and mist rising from the cool water, a wrinkled hand gently rubs a soft, velvety pink nose. Smiling widely even as his hand shakes and he feels a pit form in his gut, the old man tenderly touches his forehead to the Crowntail.

Onlookers saw few things pass between the silence of the moment; adoration, love, understanding. Solace rumbled softly as he took one step forward, careful and gentle as he lipped at the man affectionately. "Last meeting, my boy. But don't you worry, I'll wait to see ya again." The man said, his voice belying his age and the sorrow of the moment. Patting the horse upon the neck, he reached up his arm, covered with a thick sleeve of a sweater, and gripped at the softly faded fins of his mane. "I'll see ya, my boy. Be silent, old friend. Keep those kids company for me." He spoke again before he turned, the grey speckled stallion blowing out a deep breath as he stood quiet and obedient, eyes watching as the old man was helped into a wheelchair, and loaded into a car.

Looking out from the window, the smile faltered only for a second before breaking wide again. Lifting his old, gnarled and well worn hand in a farewell, Solace watched on as the man was taken from him. He would be obedient, his quiet nature speaking volumes as he stood and simply watched on. As the car disappeared with the lifting fog, Solace turned when his name was called from afar, hesitant for a few moments before headed for the two children hanging from the fence and holding carrots over for him to take.
Disturbed, The Sound of Silence

What they miss:(could be a story or simply a small explanation but nothing over 300 words)

His herd. There is nothing more he misses than leading them; charging throw the water. He misses the sound the birds sang in the mornings, nuzzling the foals. He misses it all.

Misses the way they looked up to him, he protected them. Running, throwing his head in the wind, eating icicles in the winter, and swimming in the summer. He misses the open field.

He does not miss being caught, the horror in the foal's eyes; the looks that still haunt him as the humans dragged them away, Aquarius, powerless to stop them.

He misses his first owner; her gentleness bringing him back to life, electrifying him, exciting him. He misses carrying her on his back. Nipping her hair.

He does not miss the Starting Line.

Barn Name: Nova
Gender: Mare
What they miss:
Nova misses the little toy fish she used to have in her stall. The grey mare used to snuggled right up with it despite it's small size. The small fish looked like a goldfish. It's knitted appearance and button eyes seemed to not just appeal to her but Nova loved it with all her heart. The mare was first given the fish when she was very tiny. Hatching a little too soon left her smaller than most and weaker. Due to this Nova was kept inside and around people, helping her through the early stages in life. Having been always by her side, the little button-eyed goldfish became her favourite companion. Although as she grew older, Nova kept the little soft toy in her stall. Eventually the mare became a little less dependant on the small plushie but it was kept just as a comforter as Nova still struggled to settle for the night without knowing that it was there. However, during a unknowing error, a new stable hand was cleaning her stall and came across the small goldfish in the stall. Mistaking it for a child toy and not actually Nova's the stable hand disposed of the toy. The aged look of the fish suggested it had been there for a long time. That evening, Nova shuffled through the new hay searching desperately for her comforter. Her cries of distress were heard through out the barn and the stable yard. Several people came to sift through the hay but to no avail. Eventually, the new stable hand showed up questioning curiously what the matter was. Once told, the guilt was evident on his face. He had thrown her little knitted goldfish away. Several attempts were made to replace the goldfish but to no avail. Nova would destroy them and/or continue to be distressed. The equine could tell the difference. However, that was a long time ago, now Nova can sleep without it but some nights she struggles more than others. It is rather obvious the mare is still mourning over the loss of her favourite companion.

Barn Name: Poco
Gender: gelding
What they miss: Poco misses the jumps he used to face. They were tall, and he was one of the only horses at his barn able to acheive the jumps. He would always look forward to them, and even jumped them without a rider. However, as Poco grew older, he began to lose the ability to do such impressive jumps. He can still do low crossrails or easy standards, but he will never be the legacy he used to be. Although the barn still adores his unique self, he always yearns to jump like he used to.
