quickly, joyfully)
name: Aria (italian: literally, 'air'; an operatic solo)
gender: mare
eye color: light green
halter color: pastel purple with dark mulberry edging and
silver fittingswhat does she look like?;;
Aria is a silver sooty palomino tovero* mare, with a light honey
-gold coat, medium dapples, and sooty shading. She has a
partial pastern and two full pastern socks (if her legs aren't
already white because of the tovero - these are optional)
with ermine spots on the socks, and two birdcatcher spots
- one on her neck behind her ear, and one on her rump near
her dock. She has a solid face apart from a tiny star, and
a fading raccoon tail because of the competing silver, pinto,
and sooty genes.a personality;;
If she were a human, Aria would be described as softly-spoken. She's a smoochy mare,
and loves people, but is only quietly needy - she won't whinny out for her trainer's
affection, but will quietly seek it, and relish it when it comes. Trainers who know her
well can read the subtleties of her body language, but it can be hard for new trainers
to bond with the quiet mare, as she can seem aloof - she can become very defensive
and protective of her people, but may be quite selective in the humans she chooses to
bond with in the first place. Ari is affectionate to other tolters, and absolutely adores
foals. She isn't at the top of the pecking order in the herd, but won't let herself be a
doormat - she's happy just in the middle, minding her own business. Her friends,
although she's friendly to the whole Sunset Lodge herd, include Koda (the resident
busybody), Riverdance, Opal, and Stillwater. She doesn't get on well with Kiki,
because of her misbehavior, or Duke, because of his showing off. Both of these things
grate on her. As for vices, Ari has a few of her own idiosyncracies. She can be slow
to adapt to new circumstances - she may spook if feeling insecure, but only rarely
bucks. She may bite, but only when curry combed against the grain of her fur.
Treatwise, she strangely isn't a fan of carrots and apples, much preferring oatmeal
and molasses cookies (or anything with molasses, really, the mare adores the flavour).
Aria participates in equestrian dressage and eventing, and sometimes pulls a tandem
cart with Sunset Lodge's Riverdance. All in all, Ari is a little fussy, but a kind-hearted
and loving mare, and a welcome addition to any stable.
