full name ;; kody harrison
nickname(s) ;; kody
gender ;; cis male
age ;; nineteen
height ;; almost six feet tall
body build ;; skinny but muscular
hair color & style ;; short and brown

personality ;; kody is a rather quiet young man, preferring to stick to himself and his animals. he leans more towards the introvert side, and is a tad shy and timid around those he doesn't know, although he does open up a bit once you get to know him. his main interests are roping and horseback riding. he tends to be a more serious guy, and doesn't tend to joke around. being raised in a hard working ranching family, he was taught to always be a gentleman and to be kind and true. he puts hard work, others, and animals above everything else in life.
history ;; kody has your average history; he was born and raised on a small cattle ranch down near sulfur springs, texas. he learned to ride at age three. while he was young, he showed a large interest in the western sport of rodeo. he started off on sheep in the youth event of mutton busting, but he found his real calling in both tie-down and team roping. he also likes the fast-paced event of cutting, or basically any event with cows. after he graduated, he moved up north to come to sugar creek, to improve his riding and horsemanship.

personality ;; kerosene is a very easy-going mare, and is quiet, and near bomb-proof, but she can have her moments though. she does not typically act like a mare, and is as trustworthy and loyal as a good old ranch gelding. she is calm and laid-back, and she knows her job.

personality ;; smokey is a very showy stallion. he tends to buck and kick around the pasture just to show off the other mares. he can be a very pushy stud, and can be hard to handle at times. he tends to be a little brat sometimes, although he is a very talented rope horse.
history ;; smokey was foaled on a small ranch out in Louisiana. he was trained for reining, but an injury cut his show career short. he was sold at an old auction house and bought by kody to be his rope horse project.

hi, heres my form i think i finished before anyone saw my first post here, if i did something wrong please mention and i will change it.

Mads, Mada

date of birth/age;; november 22 - 17
star sign;; sagittarius
gender;; female
sexuality;; confused
personality & history;; Madeline was born with the 'horse gene'. However, since her family wasn't exactly wealthy, she didn't have the opportunity to grow up around horses. She only started riding at the age of twelve, when she exchanged service for lessons at a local barn. Despite having spent the most part of her childhood reading books about horses, it was still a big learning experience and nothing like what she expected. Her time working at that barn served her well, she became good friends with the other barn hands, instructors and horse owners. After a bit, she became one of the better school riders due to her working with the horses on the ground before riding them. However, her knowledge is basic, since her school didn't offer much into working equitation. Her equitation did improve greatly after Vigil arrived at the barn. She found her heart horse in the pony, and spent every last penny she had on purchasing him.
Thanks to most of what she has been through, she has been taught first-hand that hard work pays off. She became ambitious and dedicated, but most of all, she remains humble. She is still very shy however, and due to her time working besides some very angry coaches, has developed a hot temper and lost a good bit of patience (with people).
superficial appearance;; Madeline wears her hair in a short cut that sits above her jaw with a heavy fringe. The strands are dyed in a carrot orange. She likes to put some effort in her hair colour, since she doesn't normally wear makeup or any clothes that aren't old or ripped. She is a small girl, her height being exactly five feet, but time lifting bales and pushing wheelbarrows full of muck have left her somewhat muscular. Her figure is very "normal", being a good weight for her height, but still appearing a bit fuller.
discipline;; showjumping, straightness training
style;; Madeline doesn't typically wear outfits that don't consist of breeches and an old shirt that is probably covered in stains. She does express herself through her boot socks, mainly wearing her pumpkin pair.
vices;; severe lip biting (often leaving open sores on her lip), peeling nail polish, sniffing horses
mods;; has two piercings; on her belly button and on her tongue.

barn name;; Vigil
height;; 14.2
age;; four years old
breed;; criollo
gender;; gelding
discipline;; showjumping
personality & history;; a rejected police horse, Vigil is just what any four year old is. Playful, curious, naughty,
sometimes disrespectful but still a sweet pony. Loves to greet everyone who walks in the barn.
Has a bad nipping habit, which is still being worked on.

Anyone want to run into Ella or Leo. Ella is down at a pond on a dock writing a letter (I want her to get interrupted.) and Leo is just wondering around near the barn.

Felicity Eberhardt
☘
Full Name: Felicity Eberhardt
Nicknames: Lissy, Fel
Age: Twenty Two
Gender: Female

Eyes: Sea Glass
Hair Color: Dark red
Hair Style: Unruly wavy, usually up in a messy bun or ponytail - if it's not shoved under a helmet
Skin: Mostly fair; rocking a farmer's tan year round but pasty white everywhere else.
Height: 5'4
Weight: 125 lbs
Build: Slender, petite, lean
Modifications: Double lobe ear piercings, right helix piercing

Horse: Odyssey
Discipline: Hunter; Equitation; Jumpers
Training: Mid level dressage foundation; 3'9 jump height; Learning Sidesaddle; Field Hunting

Personality: Bright, Spunky and always game for an adventure, Felicity is one of those always on people. Bubbly might even be the correct term to use for this one. She's happy. She loves being alive. Even when she's serious, her eyes sparkle with the joy of life. Felicity loves to learn; She's been known to spend the whole day searching on the internet or spending the day at the bookstore surrounded by information on horses (but that's a rare occasion and only when she can't actually be at the barn). She doesn't really understand the use of 'No'. "Jump this scary and imposing combination" 'Okay,' she'll say with a cheery smile. She's got a can-do attitude; always helping or lending a hand. She'll muck stalls just because she sees a muck fork and a wheelbarrow set aside. She cleans the entire tack room just because she noticed a fleck of dirt. She's not OCD, just loves being around horses and the barn. Previous trainers have kidded and said she's a barn pest - no matter what kind of pest repellent used, can't get rid of a barn pest. Such single-mindedness has helped her climb her way to the top - since she was little and had her first pony ride, she's done all she can to be around horses. She is incredibly stubborn and sometimes has to be physically moved or maneuvered (she's a little more opened minded about concepts revolving horses). A positive spirit, she can be the glue that holds people together and is a bit of a gravitational pull - like how people usually shy away from glum people, they usually are attracted to her sunny atmosphere. In competition she is focused, well as long as she's in the ring and being judged; the moment she's not, she's back to smiling and laughing and having a good time. She's definitely that one that always congratulates everyone and wishes everyone luck. She loves the behind the scenes at shows - sometimes barely making it to her own classes because she was busy helping someone else with theirs.
History: Before she was born, she was on a horse - something that hasn't stopped since; Felicity couldn’t imagine a life without horses. She loves early mornings, the smell of grain and fresh hay, and horse breath kisses. She’s put in the countless hours of colic watch and sleepless nights spent outside a sick horse’s stall. She’s seen the miracle of life and birth, and the ending of life and death. Horse blood is what runs thick in this girl’s veins and it’s never going to change. Felicity has at least attempted to ride just about every discipline and riding style imaginable. A fractured wrist was the result of her stint with vaulting; scars lightly lacing her shins comes from her 4-H gymkhana years when she was tiny (barrels bite back); and a hoof shaped indent on her lower back came from the unfortunate incident a few years back when she ended up under the legs of a five gaited saddlebred who panicked during a show. Her passion truly lies with horses - and jumping them over obstacles (to her mother’s continued horror). While she does live by ‘the bigger the better’, she also loves the artistic balance created in the hunter ring. She’s been a Pony Clubber her whole life and appreciates the organized chaos of rallies. No matter where horses take her, she will always live by the creed that horses come first. She competed in the Maclay Finals before she aged out. She loves to coach and volunteer for the local Pony Club chapters. In high school she was part of the Accelerated Program and has continued her education into university where she focused on the equestrian team and continuing to compete regularly.
Likes: Riding horses; Jumping; Swimming; Hiking; Being Outside; Sketching
Dislikes: Spiders; Lightning & Thunderstorms; Western Pleasure
Secrets: She's overcome a dark depression that has haunted her for years
Goals: Start her own successful training stable and compete in international level competitions.

Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Show Name: Calypso's Last Stand
Barn Name: Odyssey, Ody
Gender: Gelding
Age: Nine
Breed: Dutch Warmblood

Coat Color: Bay
Markings: Star, Snip
Eye Color: Chocolate
Height: 16.3 HH

Personality: Ever the goofball, Ody lives up to his nickname. He's always getting into trouble - unlocking his stall door, getting his hoof stuck in a feed bin, attempting to take a bath in the water trough. He's often described as 'adorkable' referring to how adorably dorky he is. He doesn't have a bad bone in his large body just curious, spunky, and fun-loving almost to a fault. Ody loves attention from anyone. He's been known to do very silly things for treats. He's good with his ground manners - sometimes getting sidetracked by grass or butterflies when being led or tries to 'help' on the cross ties. Under saddle, his goofy nature can be seen in some of his antics - celebratory bucks when he first starts jumping; prancing when working on the flat. His athletic ability shines with his great scope and arcing bascule. Every distance becomes the perfect distance; he's game for any challenge and loves big jumps. Practicing in the field has to be one of his favorite exercises. Getting past his in-your-face curiosity and attention neediness, he is rather a sweet horse.
