name: Muddy Studdy
gender: Stallion
halter color: Black
name meaning: Mud, as he is always rolling, and Stud, as he is quite the ladies horse.
personality: Muddy loves two things more than anything else, one, rolling in anything that he finds, and two, chasing after the mares and attempting to show them that he is a stallion worth casting an eye towards, although his techniques are not always perfect, causing more eye rolls than enough.

username: Katie Cat
name: Alluriana
gender: mare
halter color: Light pink
name meaning: It's a Japanese name which means 'charming grace'
personality: Alluriana is a rather elegant individual who prefers to venture out of her comfort zone and to attempt new things. Such as testing out new disciplines, and showing in multiple categories. Around the barn, however, she's well known for being the center of attention, and the spotlight always seems to fall upon her. Because of her graceful nature, she's an excellent show horse and easily captivates the judges with her smooth gates and quiet transitions. Generally, she's quite fond of other horses, but can be a bit spacious around other mares. Towards stallions however, she can easily be described as flirtatious, and she's always looking to have their attention. And with her charming demeanor, how could they possibly decline?

name: Aizling
gender: Mare
halter color: hunter green
name meaning: It means 'dream'.
personality: This mare should be everyone's dream horse. She is the sweetest of Tolters always the first one to greet you in the morning and the last one to whinny her goodbye. Her gentleness can only be rivaled by a stuffed animal, with her easygoing attitude around people and animals of all types and ages. When you need someone to talk to she is your girl she'll listen to every word and never tell a soul, the perfect keeper of secrets. When being ridden she only needs a light hand to take cues from and her gaits are all smooth as butter. She can takes riders of all levels and meet their needs without so much as a flick of the tail. She hasn't had any foals yet but it is almost a guarantee that she will be the best of Tolter mothers because she is so caring and gentle. She is a dream horse and the Tolter anyone would be jealous not to own.

Name: Tinde
Gender: Male
Halter color: Black
Name meaning: Tinde is the Indian tribe name meaning, "People Of The Mountains".

Personality: Tinde's personality may be easy to figure out based on the meaning of the name, but in fact, the origin's of his name dates back to long ago. You see, Tinde was a wild horse that roamed near the Tonkawa tribe, who lived deep in the forest, feeding off berries and scraps that were thrown his way by Tonkawa children. The Tonkawa tribe, meaning, "They all stay together," had traveled long and far away from their home, to find a suitable place to live after their tribe was exiled by the white men. At first, the Chief, Quahadi, refused to set up camp in the mountains, thinking that it was to rocky and unsafe, but was later convinced by his wife after realizing they had no place else to go. Meanwhile, the children of the tribe pointed out that the, "Wild horse had followed them there," and the medicine healer took this as a good omen. Horses symbolize strength, so the medicine healer saw this as a sign that here, their tribe would grow strong. Naturally, the tribe let the beast free, but the horse did not stray far from the gathering below the mountains. As the children pointed and laughed at the, "Funny, wild, horse," the beast bucked, and whinnied, and accepted scraps from the tribe people. The Chief at first, did not care for the beast, but as time went on, his fascination grew and grew. Finally, Chief Quahadi approached the horse. Normally, when the children tried to get close, the beast would run a ways off, then come back, but as the Chief approached him, he did something that astounded the tribe. The horse stepped close enough to breath on the Chief, and leaned his head against the Chief's sturdy chest, before he whinnied, and took a step back. From that point, the Chief had named the beast, "Tinde," symbolizing their new life. The Tonkawa tribe grew, and became stronger. Their crops grew plentiful, and the children grew strong. Tinde was seen as the protector of the Tonkawa tribe, and was always nearby. As the years went along, Tinde had found a mare, and raised a foal, and the Chief, was sadly, on his deathbed. Chief Quahadi had his wife and children surrounding him as he took his final breath. There was a long ceremony, and the Chief was buried. His firstborn was now Chief, his name, Chief Wiwohka. Not a night passed before Tinde realized something was up. His lovable Chief did not bid him goodnight. The beast trotted around, blissfully unaware of the loss that the Tonkawa tribe had recently gone through. After having enough of the beast's constant pounding, the wife angrily threw an ear of corn at Tinde and yelled, "You ignorant beast, he is dead!". Tinde stopped prancing, and instead started sniffing the ground. After a couple hours, the beast stopped, and lay down right above the Chief's grave. The whole tribe gathered to witness the beloved horse mourn for his dead Chief. Now, Tinde had grown old as well as the Chief, and his gallops became slower, and more pained. Among the tribe that had gathered, there was a foal and a mare, who looked on at Tinde. The beast looked on at his faithful tribe, laid his head back on the grave, took a deep breath, and peacefully passed away with his Chief. The children cried, the husbands soothed the wives, and everybody tried to comfort each other. I know what you're thinking, but please, keep reading. After night came and went, and the morning drew near, the tribe had scattered and gone to bed. The lone mare grieved for her dead stallion, but ushered the young foal to the side. The oldest son of Quahadi had three younger brothers, the youngest being eight. Now, the youngest, Lakota, approached the young foal, and rapped his small arms around the beast's neck, and squeezed tight. The foal returned the comfort, and the two became a sight to see as they stood there, mourning the death of their fathers. Finally, young Lakota looked up, and quietly whispered, "Tinde," and the Tonkawa tribe, being ever so silent, heard the boy's proclamation. The medicine healer looked on astonished as time repeated itself. The young Tinde grew up to be brave, and outgoing, bold, as well as protective. The Tonkawa tribe had not been left without protection, because before Tinde died, he left a son to carry out his job as protector.
The Tonkawa was once more protected by a strong Chief, and a wild horse name Tinde.

username: Tendency
name: Octavian
gender: Gelding
halter color: royal purple with gold metal
name meaning: the original name of Roman Emperor Augustus, derived from the Ancient Roman name Octavius from the Latin for "eighth"
personality: Having the number eight as a personality would be a stretch, of course lol.

Octavian is the eighth foal from the same dam as many other foals, and suffice to say there was nothing extraordinary about him compared to the others except that he was very small. The other horses often picked on him when he was growing up and this stress made him not concentrate on competitions so he often came in low at the standings, eighth place being coincidentally usual placing. Because of being picked on, he isn't very friendly to the other horses and often seems to have a very large ego despite not really having any grounds to back that up. He's not precisely a loner however, as he greatly enjoys the company of humans and cats. Octavian is very playful with almost any human, especially small children and his rider, loving to chase them about and tease them by pretending to ignore them. He is a very gentle creature, very conscious of his size compared to his smaller friends (especially kittens), which means he really a push over whenever any other horses challenge him. This is why Octavian does his best to bluff that he is high and mighty; so they will leave him alone. Since he didn't get along with any horses, didn't compete well and was very small for a tolter, this is what led to him being gelded. Not that he minds since it just meant less mares to deal with.
