History:

Punk was a strange foal. Cute and quiet, but altogether too wise for her young age. She outsmarted the adults sometimes, which scared the elders of her herd. She was strong, with a wicked sense of humour and loved annoying her herdmates, including her parents. She grew fast, too fast, and developed a strong, elegant appaloosa body. She was lean rather than muscular, but very fast and beat most of the other foals in play fights, colts and fillies included. She had a talent for fighting, and developed the interest of Cupid, a young colt of the lead stallion Apollo and his first choice mate, Venus.

He had two half-sisters, Tealya and Kyleene, and was the only son of the lead. He got spoilt as a result, and got everything he wanted. He went to his father about taking Punk as a mate, and Apollo was against the idea. She was too wild for his darling son, he thought. But instead of refusing, like he wanted to, he promised Cupid that Punk would be his. When she grew up so strong-willed, set on being a fighter and champion, Apollo had to find a way to keep his promise to Cupid. He knew Punk would never take the spoilt lead's son as a mate, and would rather go against authority than become authority.

He placed her as a breeding mare, which meant she was not allowed to fight but rather was to produce foals for the herd. Whilst in rage about this decision, she happened upon Cupid, who was lying at the lake's edge which she had stormed down towards to cool off. She snarled at him, but he was charming and friendly, cool to her obvious hate of him. It was all part of the plan, anyway. She was soon calming down and opening up, saying she'd do anything to be able to fight. Cupid smirked, knowing that she was following his plan without any mishaps.

He offered her two choices; one, stay as a breeding mare, or two, become his mate and be able to do whatever she wanted as a fighter and lead mare when his parents passed on. She was annoyed she had no choice, but choose number two. Being lead mare couldn't be too bad, could it? She accepted Cupid as her mate and soon was put in training to be a lead mare, her teacher being Venus who had five years experience.

She was quick, if reluctant, learner, and made sure that she would be one of the best fighters and lead mares her herd had seen. The year flew by quickly, and Punk turned four, Cupid hit five and Apollo fell ill. Cupid took over the herd, and Punk stood loyally by his side. They were a good pairing, friendly and respectful to each other if not loving. They were more partners than mates, but produced two foals together. On Punk's sixth birthday a stranger approached the herd, and joined into its ranks.

He was dark, handsome, and named Romeo. He charmed the lead mare under his control, and soon had her devotion wandering from Cupid. They were secret lovers, until Punk fell pregnant with his child. He left quickly and silently in the night, leaving his lover behind to take the wrath of Cupid. Cupid was upset that his mate would betray him, and kicked the heartbroken Punk out of his herd.

She wandered for only a few days before becoming too weak to carry on and stumbling upon a small herd nearby. She joined the herd as a herd mare, the lead had taken pity on the down-on-luck mare, and allowed her in without a fuss. Here she raised her child, a painful reminder of her young mistakes, until she was old enough to travel without risk and then she ste out to find a new herd that didn't know her history. Juliet was to pose as her half-sister.

History:

Juliet was born to Romeo, a handsome, wandering, black arabian, and Punk, a beautiful chestnut appaloosa, a lead mare of a large herd. She inheirted her father's color and temprament, being spirited, intelligent, and loud, as well as black as the night. Her coat is splashed with smoky white dots and a white blanket, which shows her appaloosa blood. She's stunning and long-legged, with her mother's frame and stance, and her father's elegance. She was a loud and obnoxious as a foal, who stuck by her mother after her father left her alone and learnt the workings of life. She was a popular young mare, beautiful and strong enough to take on most colts.
