[Merlin's Heir]

Ooh, this guy is awesome. I'm tempted to keep him myself, to tell the truth. But I'm going to be awesome and put him up for adoption. XD He's gonna be hard to get, though, since I like him so much.

Show Name:

Nocte Tempestas - "midnight storm" in Latin (Nocte - meaning "midnight" | Tempestas meaning "storm")

Barn Name:

Neo - meaning "new moon" in Latin

Gender:

Stallion

Age:

3 years 4 months

Breed:

Kladruber (Czech Kladrubský kůň)

Height:

16.1hh

Color:

Blue roan

Genes:

EE/aa/RR

Personality:

Neo is a super sweet stallion and adores attention, he really isn't a big fan of being left alone for long periods of time. He's very good with kids and would never hurt a single one of them for any reason, even if they pulled on his mane or ears it doesn't phase him. You could easily describe him as a "fluffy tank" built strong but with a gentle heart. Slashing around in mud puddles when it rains is a frequent activity for him, the cold droplets on his coat just give him a sense of happiness. Neo can be quite shy around mares so he has a hard time trying to flirt with any of them, he tends to hiccup when he gets nervous. Competitions aren't really his thing - however he does enjoy dressage and carriage pulling - lazing under a tree, eating sweet grain and watching the birds flutter from place to place is what he would much rather be doing. Even though he is a gentle giant, Neo can be a little bit mischievous sometimes, especially when he's bored; stealing an occasional mitten or scarf in the winter and a few visors in the summer. He loves to be groomed and bathed, he'll even prance around all fancy if a little girl puts a ribbon in his mane.

Story (extra):

(Told from Neo's point of view)
Slowly opening my eyes I wasn't sure that I wanted to get up, it was so warm and cozy right here in my stall. It was a frosty winter morning and the cold winds gently blew outside the window; everyone was tucked in their stalls, warm and comfy. Crrrrreak..... the huge barn door slid open and Madison - the stable hand - walked inside, she was dressed from head to toe in multiple layers of coats and mittens. I shook my head and walked over to the stall door, it was time for breakfast. Madi fumbled about the feed room trying to get grain ready for every horse; I waited patiently for her to enter my stall, I was the last one to be fed. After I finished eating Madi came over and unlatched the door; I trotted out into the pasture, the snow was up to my hocks. The first thing I did? Well I rolled of course! Right in the deepest part of the snowed pasture, it felt sooo good. Returning to my feet I pushed the snow out of my way with my muzzle, digging through the white fluff until I found grass. Madi let the other horses out a few minutes after myself,I got tired of grazing and decided to go sit under my favorite tree. Despite being so cold outside it was very warm under that old sycamore, it had been here for years and my mother used to bring me here when I was just a foal. Sighing I looked up into the branches of the old tree, I had so many memories here. Everyone else was digging through the deep snow trying to forage for grass, the foals were hopping and tripping their way around the pasture; I remember the days when I did the same thing. Careful not to trip on the roots of the tree I climbed to my hooves, this would probably be the last time I would ever sit here due to being sold to another farm. Looking back one last time I said to myself "Good bye old friend."

(May add to this, just can't think of what to write at the moment.)

Roman Nose + Blue Roan + Short Hair = *Dead*

I don't think I'm good enough for him...

I'll be judging on effort rather than quality, if you're thinking about art. I know what it's like to feel like you're not good enough to win something.

Show Name:
Abastor's Night

Barn Name:
Abastor

Meaning:
"away from the stars" or "deprived of the light of day"
In Greek

Gender:
Stallion

Age:
5

His Breed:
Brazilian

Why did you choose this breed specificly?:
The Brazilian horse can come in many, many different colors, and I also read that it is trend to trim their mane so it sticks up, like this guy! They have a roman nose about 70% of the time, and are a Spanish breed.
Another thing is that this breed is very rare, almost so rare that I did not want to make him one. I believe he will be the first Brazilian ever at CWHR. Here is a pic of a blue roan Brazilian~

Height:
16.1hh

Color:
Blue roan

Genes:
EE/aa/RR

Personality:
Abastor is a friendly giant. He is very outgoing, but gentle at the same time. His beauty attracts people all around, and is the children's favorite horse. When they come running(even if their is a "walk" sighn) down the isle he sicks his head out and nickers. They will play around with his mane for hours and make fun of his Mohawk mane. He loves them and they love him back.

Choosing a Breed:
I have a few choices. Fist I must clarify that almost any breed can have a roman nose, they are not uncommon. Also that if you were going to find a horse with a roman nose that it will probably be a Spanish breed, they are well know for it as I quote below.

It's actually a misconception that Spanish horses have roman noses. The roman nose is a draft horse trait, traditionally, Spanish horses had a subconvex profile, similar to the roman nose but not as extreme. The extreme roman nose on modern spanish horses is similar to the extreme low hip in German Shepherds overbreeding of one characteristic that leads to an extreme or over-exaggeration. Luckily, there aren't any negative aspects to a roman nose like the GSDs.

For this horse I am going to pick out a breed that has that as a more common trait, or is bred to have that roman nose.
Here is what I have so far:
Norman
Brazilian Horse
Kladruber (sadly this horse breed only comes in black, white, and a leopard spots of black and white)
Oldkladruby
