Username:Merlin's Heir
Equid's Name: Prince of the Sea (Prince)
Age: 4 years
Height: 13hh
Gender: Stallion
Personality: Prince, named for being the "prince" of his great herd (his father was lead stallion and his mother the lead mare) and being born by the sea, was a playful, happy colt when he was younger. He was always getting into trouble and being his mischievous little self. But since then, things have changed. Prince is now quite the loner, separating himself from other equids and not saying much, except when he whispers with the breeze at night. This is because of his father. His father lost his freedom because of his love for his lead mare, who's injury never got the chance to heal, regardless of the trouble Prince's father went through to try to save her. Prince is afraid that if he socializes and interacts with other equids, he'll get too close to one and his father's bad luck will follow him (his grandfather and his great-grandfather also lost either their life or their freedom because they tried to save their loved ones when there was no chance - it seems to run in the family). He just doesn't realize that it's worth the risk (and that it was just total coincidence that the last three generations of stallions had similar events in their lives).
When he is alone, he is an entirely different equid than the reserved, quiet, almost
cold stallion that he is when other equids are anywhere nearby. He is gentle, kind, and happy. He watches the other animals go about their busy lives, he stares into the ever-wavering reflections of the world in the rivers and looks for shiny rocks in its depths (he loves shiny rocks XD). He also likes to help animals in need - once he helped a lost bear cub find his mother, and one time he saved a snake from a huge spider (the only animals he
doesn't help or like are spiders and various other creepy little bugs...). He loves night. When all the other equids are asleep, then he can just be his true self without having to steer clear of other equids. He loves to run around in the moonlight, especially in the rain (then he likes to look around for moonbows, too), looking for the pegasus constellation, his bright eyes reflecting the light of the stars...
If only he would be like that around other equids. Fortunately, I think I know somequid who help him...
