Possible Personality:
I don't usually set down a personality until the foal is born, but I imagine that the foal would be somewhere along these lines..

For a Filly..
Personality 1
-Sweet and cheerful attitude, treats everybody with equal warmth and hospitality
-Always inquisitive, usually ends up nosing into other people's/WME's business, though without any bad intentions
-Loves to go with her friends everywhere, can end up being a bit of a bother without her knowing
-Rather gullible since she is very quick to trust everybody she meets
-A bit of a hopeless romantic
-Very imaginative and loves daydreaming
-Doesn't have a very long attention span if the topic doesn't interest her

-Endlessly loyal and dedicated to her loved ones
-Doesn't like being seen as 'girly'

-Stays true to her promises
-Very protective over those she cares for
-Values her freedom
-Her pride can get in the way of her rational thinking

For a Colt..
-Has a quieter, more polite nature
-Sensitive to the emotions of others, and is more than willing to support them if they're feeling down
-A bit unsure of his decisions and lacks confidence, particularly when a lot of equids are involved
-More of a follower than a leader
-Shy around strangers, but is quite easy to befriend and will warm up quickly to you as long as you treat him well
-Also secretly a hopeless romantic and refuses to admit it

-Gentle and patient
-Very careful about how he words things unless he's anxious or nervous

Foal fun facts/quirks:
Filly
Personality1
-Likes blowing dandelions..Into other equids' faces. She does it for fun although it can get a bit annoying
-Decorates her mane and tail with red, pink and white flowers

Personality2
-Has a fear of spiders (arachnophobia). The little eight-legged arachnids are one of the few things that can easily unbalance her

Colt
-Bookworm (if WME's could read, I'm not sure if they can)
-Stutters when he's nervous or panicking

Why do you think you should get the slot?
I'm not good at these types of questions since there are different opinions whether one person deserves something or not, so I'll keep it short.
I adore WME's with light coats like Rhaxma's, and it would be amazing to have a foal from her! I love Valentine's equids since cream/white/pink is one of my favorite palettes. I've been looking for a light-colored mare to use with Kix and Rhaxma just fits the bill smoothly. Though I don't seem to be very active with my equids on CS, I doodle them way too often in real life. It's slowly helping me improve my equine anatomy and if I were to have a foal from Rhaxma she would be the subject of numerous doodles along with my other equids.


Extras: (stories, art, etc. No limit)
A simple, colorless traditional drawing of chibi ish Rhaxma

I'm trying for a L Slot

Username: IBiteBack
Stallion/Mare you will be using: anarchy,inc.'s Anna Molly (permission has been granted)

Possible Trait suggestions:
1. Anna Molly's base
2. L's quip
3. Colt

Possible Foal
Name Ideas:
All of these names have to do with mythology.
1. Luison - death spirit
2. Lutin - amusing goblin
3. Leviathan - sea monster
4. Labbu - sea snake
Possible Personality:
Observant
Luison could certainly be considered a person with the ability to observe what goes on around him; someone makes a little movement, a leaf flutters in the wind, and Luison knows about it. Possibly due to his favoring of drinking in detail, and possibly just because of the fact that he manages to pick up on the little bits and pieces of movement or change in his environment. Depending on who or what moved, Luison can respond by moving an object back or even beginning to glare a little if there was an unexpected movement from an Equid near him. In short, he'll pay close attention to the small things and he doesn't like the unexpected.

Stubborn
He certainly has a strong flare of stubbornness within him, whether it's from his mother's side or his father's side doesn't matter because it's there and it flares whenever someone tries to get into an argument with him. Luison is determined to win any and all debates, even if he is in the wrong and his side isn't right, he wants to win and has a nasty streak of determination that's just as present as his stubborn streak. He is always focused on winning - whether it's some actually competition, a one sided battle that only he is fighting, or an actual debate - his goal is to win, and enjoy the warm spread of victory as well as the feeling of extreme satisfaction.

Curious
"Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back" is practically his life motto. Luison goes throughout each day with a desire to observe and learn, even going to such lengths as to be a nosy little snooper even if it isn't a good thing to do because he shouldn't get into the business of other Equids. His curiosity never learns any boundaries; if Luison wants to know something than his determination kicks in and he strives hard to find out what has captured his interest. Sometimes his curiosity, when left unanswered, can keep Luison awake at night, tossing turning fitfully until he finally gets frustrated enough to simply gaze at the stars and get lost in his own thoughts until he falls asleep, which happens to be the only thing that can settle his restlessness at something going unanswered.

Impatient
As mentioned before, Luison tends to get a bit restless when he doesn't get the answer that he wants to know within the first thirty minutes that he forms the question. He has an incredibly difficult time keeping still and being relaxed if time is ticking by while the mystery or the question was left unsolved. Due to impatient he constantly shifts back and forth or side to side on his hooves, his tail will flick, and he has the awful habit of pawing at the dirt beneath him in an incredibly childish manner, but it's not like his mother was overly involved in his development to ensure that he didn't paw at the earth like he does.

Condescending
Luison is an incredibly condescending young colt; even though he is smaller than his elders he still has the distasteful behavior of almost looking down on them with a strong air of superiority about him. He's also got the habit of patronizing other Equids, those that haven't gained his respect and even those that have but aren't very close to him, and he has the brute strength to go with his behavior so it isn't like anyone would challenge him unless they have a high level of self confidence - or maybe even stupidity, depending on exactly who was challenging him.

Prideful
He has enough pride for three other stallions, which certainly couldn't be healthy considering a stallion's pride is something that makes them act a certain displeasing way. Luison holds his head high in the presence of anyone and everyone else, walking with a confident air and almost an arrogance about him that has a tendency to get beneath a person's skin. He's certainly a smart young stallion though, working his pride in his ability to think and fight to his favor when going against other Equids, or really just being in their presence triggers the urge to flaunt. In truth, Luison could be a little bit more modest if he wanted to be, but it would take a love of his life to adjust this prideful and condescending attitude of his to a more acceptable level.

Fearless
For a realistic example of how fearless Luison is, he could face down a hungry male grizzly bear and remain absolutely calm. He doesn't fear death, but he doesn't welcome it either; in the face of serious danger, instead of going through the effects of fear (i.e. pulse racing, sweating, breathing heavy) his body actually ensures that he's calm. His breathing is steadier, a sense of chilling relaxation washes over him, and in the presence of a creature or when facing a situation that could result in his death he seems to be able to process and think clearer. This is a gift in several senses, seeing as the fear of death and the urge to take flight instead of fight are just as dangerous as a deadly situation or animal, because fear can make a person think irrationally.

Possessive
Despite being an aggressive, prideful, condescending bully Luison can actually be incredibly possessive when he gets attached to something. He's get incredibly defensive and protective of his herd members in the face of new Equids that make him wary, even little goals and fillies, because he feels like he can't trust the world with things that he holds dear to him. With someone, such as a mate even though the likelihood of him settling down any time soon is practically unheard of, he would have an almost toxic level of possessiveness - he would practically demand that his mate stays at his side anywhere and everywhere he goes so that he can keep an eye on them - not because he doesn't trust his mate, but because he's afraid they'll get hurt when he isn't there to protect them, and if that happened Luison would be crushed. With other herd members it would simply be guilt and remorse at the fact that they got hurt, but if they actually died he would be utterly crushed.

Aggressive
If it hadn't been noticed before with the mentioning of the fact that Luison can and will quickly get into fights, even using the natural pride and other irritating parts of his personality to coax other stallions into fighting him, Luison is an aggressive male. He has a nasty habit of nipping or even kicking at other Equids - one outside of his herd or ones that he doesn't like - and this trait of his is strongly disapproved of by Alibaster and Kendall, but Whittaker is actually rather passive when it comes to Luison's aggression as long as the other male doesn't go around nipping or kicking him, or their elders.

Foal fun facts/quirks:

• Adores riddles, no matter how hard or how easy they are.
  
• Has a little pet rat named Jean Louise.
• Loves sour things.

Why do you think you should get the slot?
I always feel as though these questions are loaded and set up to make us sound arrogant/snobby, when really I'm full of anxiety and if we were talking I would be sputtering at the moment. Why do I deserve the slot? Well, just like any other Equid lover who read the rules for L, I will not breed him within the first four months that I have him - actually, I would prefer not to breed him for much longer than that, if I can get away with it, but there is always the chance that one of those mares you just have an admiration and adoration for could arrive, and then what? I doubt I will breed L's son within the first year of owning him, as I would rather lavish him in affection and art than to have his genes being spread around the Equid community so quickly, but I suppose that's simply my own views on that matter. To be entirely honest with you, I'm not terribly interested in having any of my Equids becoming parents and grandparents. I would much rather focus on giving them a life full of adventure, and focus on getting art of them. I would also like to keep their genes very limited in the Equid community, minus Alibaster who will be donating 5 slots to the Equidless users in a contest. What I am interested in with a foal from L would be a protagonist that I can love, get mad at, and simply adore to the fullest that my heart is able. In the future I would even like to get a plushie of him, as I see a beautiful Equid with a beautiful personality that has already captured me and I'm helpless against loving him. Having a plushie would allow me to hug him close to my chest ;v; but again, that may just be me that is that way.
