Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.
Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.
Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.
Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.
This Junicorn is very much aware of how special they are.
So, despite wanting to try new things, they're going to need some coaxing to come home with you.
What is your plan?

Prompt:
Marble, being so in need of coaxing, got to my heart so very much. I stand quietly and watch, holding out a hand first so he can learn my scent. When he touches his nose to me, then blows breath on me, I know I've done it. That's not the end, though, so I reach out slowly to touch him. Once he lets me do that, I grab a treat and offer it. I let him eat that, then I turn and begin to walk away, having a second treat. I don't force a halter on him, and just let him follow me as he pleases. We make it home, and he sees Keyani and seems quite taken with him. I get him into the pasture with the others. He looks at me then seems to nod, and I know he'll stay with us now.

Halter Color: Eye color & lilac
Prompt: Honestly, nothing conventional was working to convince this sweet Junicorn to come home with us. He turned up his nose at treats, petting, and even the promise of a safe space to live. But noticing how vibrant and lively this boy's eyes and horn were, how he sparkled and shined and owned his lovely colors, we offered him something super special, yet and elegant to wear that would compliment his aura:
a holographic halter.
He was instantly attracted to the striking colors, and with the promise of a big fancy wardrobe, happily followed us home.

Barn Name: Atlas
Gender: Stallion
Height: 14.1hh
Halter Color: Artist choice <3
Prompt:The perfect recipe to coax Atlas
Ingredients
1. 2 apples, thinly sliced
2. 1 jar of dark molasses
3. 1 jar of crunchy peanut butter
4. Any movie starring Julia Roberts or Anne Hathaway
Method
1. Assemble the apple, molasses, and peanut butter charcuterie board. Apples must be thinly sliced so to not damage his precious teeth
2. Put on any movie involving his major celebrity crushes, Julia Roberts or Anne Hathaway. Brownie points for his favourites: Runaway Bride or The Princess Diaries
3. Lastly, invite the whole herd! Not only does he get to show himself off, but also flaunt his broad and weirdly accurate knowledge on his two favourite actresses.
4. And there you go. You will have Atlas in a trance for life. Goodluck!

Height: 14hh
Halter Color: Eye color
Prompt: Wonderwall may be reluctant to join my herd, he will finally be swayed when he hears the music we are always singing. Even the most cautious trotter can't help but kick up their heels and frolic. It's the kind of music that makes you just have to dance, from the slightest toe tap to flips and spins. Wonderwall's uniqueness will only be amplified by the songs we make.

Prompt: I would tell them about a music festival happening nearby that I'd love to go to with them. We could dance and party to the fun music. :3 After, I would mention that we could go to things like this or try other new things together if he joined my herd and me, but let him decide.
