APPEARANCE
[O U T E R . S H E L L]
I'd like to think of myself as a dirty gray, but if I left it at that, you could have a number of ideas on what that might mean. More specifically, I am a deep silver - dark like the grass after the sun has completely left the sky and all that is lighting the earth is the pale, waning moon. Flushes of walnut brown undertones appear in patches mainly on my breast, shoulders, rump points, and muzzle. These highlights are so slight, they are hardly visible to the scanning eye, but I suppose I will mention it out of the sheer kindness of my heart.
As for my hooves, those are a dull black. When I say "dull", I am referring to the fact that I no longer have that fantastic shine that makes my hooves look like they are coated in oil. Let's face it - that amount of shine only happens for the first day of life and then if you have been scrubbing your feet under water for some time...and who has time for that?! Besides that, they are a decent shape - medium curve, straight and sound, no shallow frog, an even angle with my pastern, etc. Nothing out of place, nothing detrimental. I have a history of meticulous breeding, but that is for another time, luv. My mane and tail are a good length for being out of human care for so long. My mane, years ago, had far surpassed the edge of my nape, but since the flood and my being on my own, it has shortened some - it just grazes my esophagus. My tail is much the same - it had always been braided and tied up so that when let down, it would drag generously across the terrain. It was hassle, nonetheless. I could never use it for the flies seeing as it was tirelessly tied up and away.
My basic facial features are simple and clean. I have a finer face than, say, a brabant, though it isn't as feminine and delicate as your straight Egyptian. Humans referred to my face as serious though kind, despite my rough interior (which shall be soon enough addressed, my impatient one).

I had a flawless figure most of my life - prior to the flood. No scars or patches or matting. When it came time for me to fend for myself, I will admit that I stumbled now and again, especially fending off predators and such. Nicks and hairless patches mainly grace my legs, though they are by no means abundant or annoying. They are there, yes, but quite unnoticeable to the average eye and quite disregardful to those without OCD.

PERSONALITY
There is no easy, simplistic way of describing my "personality" - that is a judgement many come to on their own. Everyone has their own opinion on me; loud, quiet, rude, sarcastic, brash, sweet...so many contradicting adjectives for one simple horse! But for your own sake and because I am feeling gracious, I will describe me as I see myself. Feel free to have your own view of me when you meet me.
I'm moody far too often - but my mood swings are always justified. I would never misdirect my anger or frustration - if you treat me with respect and proper courtesy then we will be just fine no matter what shit shovelers come my way. That being said, I am a force to take on if you do decide to get on my black list. I keep vendettas and I don't easily forget. I will always remember a wrong. While I'm usually not the violent type and am well known to keep myself contained, under control and poised, I am also known to come down upon you with a fury and power whether it is physical or logical. That brings me to my next point; I am a thinker. Too many equines are all about their brute power and fighting skills while not enough stop to actually think out their lives and the future and such. I have been mistaken as quiet and shy - but this is far from the truth. I am neither - I simply reflect an introvert (don't be the fool who associates this with "shy"). I am not a crowd seeker, though I do not avoid them, nor am I the "social butterfly", however I would never run from an uncomfortable situation. I enjoy being alone and am unafraid of being so. With this, I have been everything from prized by the humans to being able to rely on myself in sticky situations other herd-bound horses would have quickly succumb to. I know too well how the mind works - do not be surprised if I find you a bore for I probably have already figured you out at that point.
HISTORY
My background is quite private - and the fact I have lived over a decade means I have many chapters. For curiosity's sake, I will give you my life in a nutshell - you probably wouldn't want to hear every fine detail anyway.
