BONUS TASK This is an optional bonus task that will not earn you any horseman points.You need to demonstrate the basics of using a mount. Please do these in a separate thread.Hey! Listen!- Roll 1d4. Even, your mount listens to you. Odd, it does not. Forward:- Roll 1d4. Even, it moves forward. Odd, it does nothing. STOP:- Roll 1d4. Even, it keeps moving. Odd, it stops. Turning:- In order to demonstrate your ability to turn, your mount will need to turn one full circle. Pick even or odd. Try to roll what you called twice in a row. - Upon accomplishing that, call even or odd again. Then roll what you called twice in a row again. Upon completing this bonus RP, you may now RP your mount anywhere within the War clan. Except in RPs that takes place in trees, because that is rather silly and the mounts are too big to fit in the elevators. This isn't Thunder Bluff.

 In which it was the first of many attempts at Sparrow and Helga bonding.
"All right," he said to the dragon, poised on the back of the saddle with a determined expression on his face. "Let's see how well you can do this..."
Helga snorted. But at least she was listening to him.Quote: Hey! Listen!
Even, your mount listens to you.

"Now," said Sparrow, shifting so that he was more comfortable. "Move forward three steps."
There was a long pause. Then, grudgingly, Helga took one step...then another...and then finally another.
Very, very, slowly.
Sparrow smiled brightly. "Well done!" Quote: Forward
Even, it moves forward.

In which Helga was still walking and Sparrow was tugging determinedly on her reigns in a very useless manner. Quote: STOP (AGAIN)
Even, it keeps moving.

"Helga, darling, please don't you want to stop? We're going to run into that tree over there if you're not careful..."
Still walking.
Sparrow wondered what he was doing wrong. Quote: STOP (AGAIN AGAIN)
Even, it keeps moving.

In a moment of desperation, Sparrow snapped the reigns once against Helga's side and said loudly "Helga! Stop!"
Which she did. Very abruptly, and Sparrow went flying over her head and landing in a very ungraceful heap on the ground.
"Oh, good, you stopped." Quote: STOP (AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN)
Odd, it stops.

It still wasn't working very well.
"Helga, darling, can't you just...walk in a circle? Please? Just go around like this - "
He tried demonstrating and wound up falling off again. Quote: FULL CIRCLE

Fortunately for Sparrow, it seemed as if she might be finally listening to him. He guided Helga in a neat little half arc, during which he held his breath hopefully that she would actually listen to him this time.

To Sparrow's great relief, Helga obediently finished the circle, giving a wide, bored looking yawn as she rounded out the last few steps. Sparrow, delighted, hugged her neck from behind, quite pleased.
And very grateful she could not reach around far enough to bite him. Quote: FULL CIRCLE
