Name: Vanmoriel (Vahn-Moh-Ree-Elle) Meaning: Dark beauty Breed Harpy (mutant hippogryph) Quote: "If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies." Currently: Nesting in her basket!
Herd: Vanmoriel is a member of The Flock. She currently holds no rank as she has not yet emerged from her basket and completed her training.
Familiar: None yet.
Personality: Vanmoriel shares her fathers' love for art and his desire to always do better. However, where Taarab's passion is with metal work, Vanmoriel's lies with canvases. She paints using paints she makes herself from minerals, plants, flowers and other items mixed with egg yolks and water. As a child, her painting started off as simple designs; but the talent was obvious. Vanmoriel spends time with her father, learning simple metal- working skills and while her jewelry isn't as skilled as her parents', she puts effort and love into everything she makes.
One day, when the wind blew leaves onto a painting, Vanmoriel discovered the wonders of collages. She began to experiment with them; using flowers she pressed herself, leaves, feathers and other items she could get her claws on. She mixed sap and water as glue, harvesting the sap herself.
Vanmoriel has a strange fascination with butterflies; something that started as a child. She finds them beautiful, their movements full of grace and an innocence that only a child could understand. She catches butterflies, keeping them in cages until she is able to successfully paint them before letting them go.
Like her mother, Vanmoriel is proud. However her pride lies in her art. She doesn't believe anyone else is on her level, something that she has believed since foal hood and something that was encouraged by her mother.
Her appearance is not something she worries about. She's often covered in paint, with leaves and flowers sticking out of her hair. Vanmoriel has an array of jewelry, usually items traded for her art. She adorns herself with these without any real thought in how they fit together. She has a fondness for bright colours, especially blues, greens and purples; though if it's bright she'll wear it.
Dancing is something Vanmoriel leaned, but not something she has a passion in. Her mind is too busy off with her paints and brushes to learn intricate dance moves. However, she admires her mothers dancing greatly; loves the grace and beauty. She often paints her mother dancing.
Vanmoriel has a passion for beauty, but rather than collect such things, she paints them. She will not paint anything that she deems 'ugly', not finding inspiration for it.
When it comes to males, Vanmoriel's fascination with butterflies will make her more inclined towards flutters. Vanmoriel does not paint stallions, besides her father and so when she finds a male she is inspired enough by to paint, she will deem him worthy enough for breeding.
Vanmoriel is a little withdrawn, not because she's shy, but because she's often in her own world. Despite this she is extremely loyal to the flock, her family in particular and will do anything asked of her without any problems.

Born to Vanya and Taarab, Vanmoriel is the youngest of three daughters. For a small part of her foal-hood, Vanmoriel was looked after solely by her mother; something Vanya did to protect her children from the teasing she endured. However, as the girls started to venture out and make friends, Vanya realised they would not suffer the same fate as she and allowed them to be in the nursery with the other foals; though she kept a close eye on them.
Vanmoriel participated in classes the same as every other female foal, but she didn't excel as other's did. Not to say she was stupid; she simply did enough to pass and left it at that. The classes bored her, so she didn't bother. As she got older, she developed a love for arts and craft, the same as her parents. She tried her hand at metal work, but eventually moved towards canvases; Gluing leaves on a wooden backing to make them. She eventually discovered how to make her own paints and glue.
An adult now, Vanmoriel has taken on the role of forager. Mostly so she can collect supplies for her painting and collages; flowers, berries, dirt and leaves for the most part. However, she still collects herbs and food for the flock.

Current Plots
A Child RP with the Flock, lessons, selecting her role in the flock etc'. Dancing... Isn't For Me. Vanmoriel tries to dance, but realises she is not as passionate about it as her mother is. Mi Casa es su Casa Vanmoriel has found a foal, lost and abandoned. She brings this foal home and they instantly become friends. Whether the foal will be raised by Vanya or not will be decided by RP. Canvasing Vanmoriel has discovered she has a knack for painting. I would like for Flock members to notice this talent and request art from her.
Future Plots
Where are you? Vanmoriel's muse is missing. She hasn't painted for weeks and she's starting to wonder if perhaps she's lost all her creativity. Someone inspires her. Brings her muse back. A stallion or a mare Garden Sick of traveling into the woods to find flowers (and supplies running relatively thin), Vanmoriel's decided to set up a small garden. She'll meet a stallion ( Erynion - who will not be joining the flock as he is mated ) who will give her seeds and help her set up.
