From Darkness to Danger: Equidius RP

[Jones.]

Calla flicked her left ear. Which, for her, was a clear sign of boredom. She lowered her head as a small foal trotted past, a small smile playing on her muzzle. Sighing, she raised her head at the sound of another horse entering the cave. The hoof-beats sounded familer... Balios. Obviously.

She trotted in place for a while and stopped. The other Equidius were silently walking and whispering to one another. The defender sighed and looked around the cave, standing guard. The caves echoed with the slightest click of noise, and the chilling noise would grip her. It's just a rock or something, Ember was thinking.

(oh can I join now? :3 With Kieran only -he maybe could be the "deputy stallion"-, Wind doesn't live with the other Equidius)

[Verdana]

(You're welcome to join! Deputy stallion is great, I'll put him up on the list.)

((Okay if I join? :3 Kanika is Forager.))

Kanika

Kanika huffed as she silently slid in and out of the shadows. It was her duty to look for new sorces, but her finds were becoming few and far between. Where did it all go? she thought dejectedly, throwing her head as she picked up speed. She was alone, as usual, and she'd found a nice quiet tunnel to explore. She loved the simplicity of it, just being yourself without anybody around to judge you. The filly generally avoided others at all costs, unless she needed to know something. That's when she would listen in, totally unseen and unheard. She smirked, thinking of her notoriety as a shadowy recluse. What did they know? If they weren't so darn annoying, she would maybe speak more often. Kanika was now at a gallop, her mane and tail streaming back elegantly as she listened to her rythmatic hoof beats. She came skidding to a stop before she crashed into a dead end. It wasn't often that she didn't sense something of such importance. Her ears flattened heatedly at this thought, herd life obviously dulling her acute senses. Suddenly unnerved by her surroundings, she arched her neck to listen for any unexpected company. Total quite. Good. Nobody had followed her, so she could slip back to the herd unnoticed. She began trotting once more, the soft white glow of her antenna fading as she crept away.

Kanika was becoming impatient as she slunk back toward the herd. She knew they were close, but she just wasn't getting there fast enough for her liking. She began cantering, her ears pricked as she rounded a corner. She mentally kicked her self when she shot through the group like a bullet. Her estimation of their location had been completely off, by a lot. Curses. She instantly slowed, hugging the wall as she circled out along the outskirts. Her highest priority was locating Balios, not induring the mindless chatter of her fellow herd mates. She had heard a rumor, a rumor that the lead stallion was going to send scouts to the surface. She needed to confirm it, and get a spot in that party. As she made another small loop, she heard his distict voice. Lowering her head honorably, she made her way toward a branching tunnel. His voice echoed dully off the walls, and she was as silent as the wind once she reached the breeding mares' chamber. Her small head popped around the corner to listen, her presence still unknown to them. There were several Equidius already gathered there, her antenna flickering nervously as she shyly stepped toward the stallion. She was okay with Balios, in all of his down-to-business glory, it was the others she prefered to avoid. Briefly acknowledging the foal in the room, her skin crawled for just a moment before she caught herself. She hated that chamber, too many little "Cooty Magnets" had been there, and too frequently. "Balios, I've returned from scouting. I couldn't find a single sprig of fungus, sir." she told him worriedly, one ear rotating back. She wasn't finished speaking with just her report though, as she usually was. She cut her eyes up at him, a serious look on her face. "I've heard a rumor, and I wish to comfirm it. Are we really going to venture to the surface?" she said with just a hint of awe, not wanting to reveal too much enthusiasm. She had a reputation to up-hold you know.

Celatum

Stallion ~ Forager
Appearance


Celatum let a steady snort escape from him - the time had finally to return home. His silent nature made him move more quietly and gently across the rocky ground of the cave. The haunting cave loomed over him, inviting him over with the familiar shadows and stories that the world had to tell. Celatum was not in his best spirits; he had just finished his scouting session and was about to bring home, news of food shortage. However, now that he had finally reached his destination - he noticed that the little filly Kanika had a much more faster step then him; for she was standing beside Balios with her head held high.
A feeling of aprehension gathered in the stallion but this did not prevent him from making his way to Balios and announcing the similiar following statement -
'Sir, there are food shortages. No food cannot be found.'

Those few single words stringed together felt to Celatum like a sign of dismissal and he easily removed himself from the awkward scene by leaving that very same part of the cave. The eerie silence left a sense of danger and fear for a few Equidius - but not for Celatum. He took pleasurable steps in the long extended tunnel - his faintly lit dim light blue antennae softly brushed into his mane had now seized a vigorous power over light. Nothing was visible except for those mysterious pairs of light blue eyes that moved in the darkness. Walking with a simple satisfaction in his heart he made his path for the where the majority of the herd lay. He was probably going to be greeted with a simple smile or maybe with just a nod - but otherwise he was glad to retreat back to where his home was.

(( Hey everybody! I know that I've been seriously slacking on my RP Mini Mod duties, but I shall fix that real soon! If I remember correctly, through message, Verdana gave me permission to control Balios, I just need a little more info on where she wants the RP to go. xD
So, sit tight, and the RP will be back in motion before you know it! c: ))
