history . Xeria was born a very shy foal. For the first few weeks of her life, she'd always hide when another foal came to ask to play or if another herd member came to talk to her mother. She only interacted with her mother for her father was always off solving herd problems, fighting of bachelors, and over all just keeping the herd safe. He loved his family and was by no means a bad father, he just rarely ha the time.

But a few weeks after Xeria's birth, her mother became gravely ill. It came on slowly, but it rendered her mother weak. So, instead of going to to play with the other foals - seeing that she'd over come her shyness at this point - she stayed with her mother until she was around ten months of age and her mother's body finally gave out to the illness. During this long time she missed out on many social events and learning experiences and was unable to learn how to interact with others. She was so used to showing one emotion or none that it became ingrained forever into her brain.

While it broke her heart when her mother died, she knew she wouldn't have wanted her daughter to brood over her death. And so Xeria picked herself up and did her best to mingle with the other foals of the herd. However she just didn't mix in. Her personality had grown to be so barred and mysterious that the other, playful and rambunctious, youngsters shunned her. She was forced to go to adults for any sort of social interactions.

The adults of the herd enjoyed her company, especially the elderly. They found it nice that she was so quiet and reserved. Not bugging them with questions or to play or telling them the pointless little pieces of information that the other foals did. So she grew up having her emotionless outer shell seen as good while her emotions and thoughts roiled beneath the surface.

When the adults got boring, she would slip away into the woods. She found so many wonderful things in the woods and found them to be more mysterious and enchanting then the meadows she was used to. She grew to love the forest and learned rapidly the ways of the trees.

Her love of the forest followed her when she reached the age of three and separated herself from her herd. She immediately trudged into the forest, taking herself as deep into the woods as she could. She didn't want to see another meadow for as long as she could help it. Now that she's lived this way for a year, she feels very vulnerable out in the open and if she does go out to a field she remains on the edges of the forest.

personality . Xeria tends to keep to herself and remain a mystery to most other equines who come across her. She likes to hang out in deep forests instead of the more open plains as other horses normally do. Less chance to have another come and try to interact with her. While she's gentle and kind, she only answers personal questions as short and directly as she possibly can and reveals nothing more than was asked of her. In return, she asks only of you what you asked of her, unless it's a necessity that she ask something else. It's not that she doesn't want to know more about others, she just doesn't see it as fair that she ask of you what she won't give herself.

Xeria, despite being very quiet, is not one to be pushed around. She's not afraid to take command of a situation and usually does so quietly. Like if someone is trying to get to someone or something she doesn't think they should get at, she'll simply keep herself between them and whatever it is she's guarding. She tends to use actions more than words to convey what she wants.

If you're telling her about your dream, she tends to make comments on how likely it is or if she thinks you'll be able to do it. She's a strong believer in not setting your expectations on life so high. She'll often hurt others' feelings doing this, but she doesn't mean to.

looks . Xeria is a 16hh Akhal-Teke/Rocky Mountain Horse mix. Her coat is a shiny black with faint silver dapples scattered about her shoulders, stomach and rump. Her mane and tail are long and silver, her forelock hiding the base of a long silver horn that glistens whether sun is hitting it or not. Her legs sport silver zebra marks and her right front sports a white cornet marking. Her lips have white along the fronts of them, looking a bit like lipstick. Her eyes are the same silver as her horn, but not quite so much life. Her silvery black color scheme makes her seems as thought she was made from the moonlight and shadows swirling together with the breeze of the night. During the day she doesn't quite stand out, but as the sun falls and the moon rises, she's really something spectacular.

why . While she is beautiful (aren't all horses?) she doesn't go around throwing herself at stallions and she knows her place. She will not challenge those above her, but she is not afraid of keeping those below her in line. Honestly, if one ever needs a military leader or a guard, she's a good horse to come to. She refuses to be walked all over and she's as loyal as they come. But while polite, she knows when politeness just isn't going to cut it and she needs to be rough.

Put simply: she knows how to handle herself and others.
