Username: Sheperd
Name: Valence
Gender: stallion
Halter color: black
Personality: Valence is an unsure stallion. He is rather skittish and gets spooked easily, so strangers must approach him with caution. However, once you gain his trust, Valence (sometimes called "Val") is a sweetheart. On the inside, he is an affectionate lovebug. Though on the outside, he is anxious and a worry-wart. So unfortunately, Valence is almost always on edge.
First Ride: Valence's first ride was full of sudden stops and uncertainty. The entire process of tacking him was even difficult. Every time someone got near him, he would flatten his ears and avoided the hands of the trainers. Eventually, the trainers had to grab someone Valence trusted. They slowly and carefully tacked him, but Valence was terrified.
Finally, one of the men volunteered to ride Valence. Valence was petrified, frozen in terror of the humans. Never had he been in a saddle, the the bit in his mouth made him uncomfortable. He nearly bolted, but he reluctantly remained stationary. The man that had mounted him gave him a slight squeeze, and that set Valence off. He bolted, cutting corners quickly. Around the pasture he galloped, and then finally his head was pulled back. Valence flattened his ears, being forced to stop. The man on him slowly eased his taut grip on the reigns. Valence's heart was racing. The man began to gently pat Valence's neck, but that made him even more uncomfortable. Again, the man gave Valence a slight squeeze. Valence didn't move, but he was unsure of what the rider was doing. The man squeezed again, but Valence didn't move. One more squeeze. Finally, Valence took a couple steps forward, and he listened with uncertainty as the man on his back spoke softly. Was this a good thing? The rider slowly pulled back the reigns, making Valence stop. Valence stopped. The man gave Valence a gently squeeze again, and Valence started walking forward. Around they went, and Valence slowly began to learn from his mistakes.
