Name: Sparhawk
Age: two yrs old
Breed: Gypsy VannerX PercheronX Andalusian
Color: Bay
Height: 15 hh
Gender: Mare
Markings: Blaze, two hind stockings
My mother raised me in the woods near the land my father had claimed. But he no longer holds those lands and I no longer trust anyone. I hold no loyalties to anyone except myself. My own mother has betrayed me, she reached out to another herd in the absence of my father. She is a fool.
Name: Mielikki
Age:6 years old
Gender: Mare
Breed: Percheron X Andalusian Cross
Height: 15 hh
Color: Blood Bay
Markings: Blaze, black points
Forest horses. Small herds that one stallion ruled with a ferocity that does not exist in the plains. Too many predators. Bears and wolves take the foals and mares with no warning. My father already had three mares and I was not wanted. But late at night, a mare was taken. The cry went up through the herds. BearKing! He was demanding a sacrifice. My father consorted with the elders and chose to give the small filly that the mare left behind. As she was taken to the meadow of the BearKing, I could not bear what was happening. No! Leaping forward, I nudged the scared filly out of the way. I would take her place. I was nothing but a lesser mare anyway. My father sought to argue, but it was as it was. I waited in the meadow until dark started to fall. A large bear stumbled out of the woods. A grizzly and a large one. But wounded and older. Snorting at me, he asked why I was here alone. I told him about the mare and the foal. Nodding, he stepped forward. Come with me. He was not a Bearking, merely Bilbo. A strange relationship formed and I followed him. But I have not seen him in a year now. I am far away from home.
