Basket Name: Lorelei if female, Ansam if male
Name Meaning: unknown :0

Personality:
Now.. I always have a difficult time conceptualizing a character when so much about it is still uncertain, but here are some ideas.

Is a driven individual.When she was young she saw a traveling caravan. they were selling exotic treasures and they told her about the magnificent things they had seen. She became inspired by the quiet glamour of a traveling merchant. It was a thrilling and adventurous concept.

As a foal she spends most of her time tinkering with bits of stone and metal, and other miscellaneous materials. She makes crude jewelry at first, but is still quite proud of her creations. Jewelry making becomes a lifelong hobby of hers and she becomes quite good at by the time she reaches adulthood.



Possible Plot Ideas:

-Has a childhood friend, that supports her craft until She wants to leave to become a merchant. This would be heartbreaking for her and she makes the difficult choice of following her dreams to staying with her best friend. (this friend could also be sibling if either of you are interested ;D

-Seek out a teacher. she will need a master to learn from, she will be on her own for a little while before she tracks down a caravan willing to take her on as an apprentice. (perhaps one of The Amachi Traders?)

-Adventures on the road. She cant wait to meet new soquili and seen new and wondrous things, the possibilities are endless.

-Repairing an old wound. perhaps after her training with the traders, she can swing back to her old home and see where everyone is at now. if her old friend is still there, she would want to repair the relationship. hopefully they can see now, that she is on her way to becoming a successful trader, it was the right decision for her. they can say I'm sorry for leaving you and I'm sorry for holding you back and every one can be happy?

anyway these could probably change once I actually see what the basket will be and what he/she will look like <3


Any comments/notes?: I have always been in love with Kenji's colors so I am excited and honored that you would give us the chance to have one of your beautiful baskets. Congratulations! and thanks for taking the time to read :3

here

Basket Name: A few possibles
Emerald(could be used for m or f, though listed as F)-nickname Emi
Chloris-F

Name Meaning:
Emerald- m/f, English name derived from the name of the precious green gemstone, the birthstone of May, from Greek smaragdos, meaning "green gem." The emerald was once believed to have the power to protect chastity, ward off evil spirits, cure dysentery, epilepsy, and help poor eyesight
Chloris- F, Latin form of Greek Khloris, meaning "green buds." In mythology, this is the name of a goddess of flowers and vegetation.

-I went a color route with names as well as partly going with what the clue was. Chloris deals with the color green and plants, since the clue mentioned a swamp and there are plants there(all be it some strange and not very pretty) I feel it could fit there.
I also went with Emerald which will tap into the personality some as well.

Personality: Temper-Strong-Minded
Strong, proud, determined, protective, kind...all of these describe this young one. Surrounded by love and lots of family has been very beneficial. Because of the love he/she doesnt see how he/she and his/her 'litter mates' are different from their older siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins ect. If the topic is brought up he/she will look at you as if you are plum crazy and/or blind. It's his/her determination that they are all the same that is the cause of this. You can't tell him/her that they are wrong when he/she knows otherwise. Stubborn can also describe this young one, once an idea or thought is in his/her head it's hard to stop them from thinking it, doing it, or correcting a 'fact'.

As he/she grows the unwillingness to change and the level of stubbornness will lessen bit by bit and they will learn to at least consider and listen to an opposing side, but there will be no telling him/her that they are weird and different and he/she will correct anyone that tries to say he/she is, including his own family. He/she will only see the similarities between them and someone 'normal'

Possible Plot Ideas: Foal and Adult rp that involve a stranger or family member calling him/her different, where he/she could explain otherwise and refuse to accept the fact they are different.
-Meet someone that has mutations or something that makes them different where he/she can cheer them up and try to have them adopt his/her mindset on the matter.
-Im not very good coming up with plots with these things as they kinda come to life on their own through chatting with others and rp'ing. Id want them to have every experience possible with all kinds of soq, big and small, nice and mean.

Any comments/notes?: Thank you for this opportunity. Ive loved watching Kenji's family grow and the chance to be part of it is an honor as well as being at the beginning of Aditi's family
(my entry is a little weak but it was all I managed to work out of my tired brain, my wording could be a lot better xP)

Rawr, something evil this way comes...

Username: CrimsonCutie666
Link To Teepee: N/A
Basket Name: M: Palus F: Glade
Name Meaning: M: Swamp F: Meadow/Clearing
Personality: Temper~ M: Reticent or F: Coy
Either gender this little one is a bit of a loner. Unsure with the world they will tend to stick with their family or those few who may have gained their trust. This is because of whatever strangeness comes from their family, even if it isn't from them. They don't want others to think they could be weird or strange and so are afraid of actually getting close to others because of this fear. They won't often talk unless they feel comfortable with whoever they're talking to. Lots of times this makes them the best person to talk to because even if they don't want to they'll end up listening to be polite.

As a boy Palus will be even more quiet and reserved. He'll have problems approaching anyone, especially mares who he'll be too shy to even go near. He'll prefer his alone time and want everything about him to be very secreative because he thinks the more people know about him the more they can hurt him and/or his family.

As a girl, however, she'll be more communicative. Still slightly shy and standoffish she'll want to actually go up to others and talk but when they might notice that she's there she'll skirt around them. If they pursue her Glade will eventually open up a bit, and happily talk with anyone, even others who might not be the best to have a conversation with. Sometimes Glade is feeling more playful and does the little run away thing on purpose, trying to get the stallions to chase her but this usually comes to bite her in the butt because eventually her shyness comes back half way through and she actively tries to avoid the male she was just teasing.

Possible Plot Ideas: Male-
1. On my own: Since Palus is pretty much a loner when he grows he'll travel all over to learn about new areas and see new people. Literally see because he won't go up to any of them to talk, not on purpose anyway. With this he'll hopefully become wiser.

2. Sidekick: Palus can't remain completely alone, and I prefer he doesn't. I'd love for him to get a best friend, who can stay friends or become his mate later but someone who he can share all his knowledge with and can help him overcome his shyness.

3. Lend me an ear: After Palus has traveled a lot I want him to basically give out advice. Since he's such a good listener he could hear all the little unsaid things, even if he wouldn't really want to be listening, and help out those who need it.

4. My One and Only: Palus doesn't care about gender really, though mares make him nervous. He'd be a hard one to catch no matter who tries and they'd have to pursue him. Palus is also a bit dense when it comes to love so he'd have to be hit over the head with realization and spend a lot of time with the one who loved him for him to finally say he was in love.

5. How?: This is a maybe. If I were to have him have an ons it would be something he kinda fell into. Since he's not all too keen on being open with females he'd either have to meet one who he clicked so much with he just kinda felt this was something he should do, or he'd just be listening to a mare in need and somehow oops. This would lead to the recluse Palus being more nervous around females and now with a commitment to a place he wasn't expecting. He'd love his kids and would be a great dad but all the exposure to others that he wasn't expecting would be interesting.

Female-

1. In need of friends: Glade really wants friends. She just isn't confident enough to make some. So she'll eventually leave to find a herd to call her own. That, or a few friends who she can stay with probably for the rest of her life. She likes others, she just wants those forever friends she's herd (get it? Heard? Herd? *Shot*) about.

2. Shy shy bye bye: Glade really wishes she weren't so horribly shy. She makes others think they've either offended her, scared her off, or that she's flirting with them, which often (But not always) isn't the case. She's going to try forcing herself into situations where she's not at all comfortable, and then panic once she's in them and try backing out. This will lead to several hilarious situations.

3. Flirting is Fun: Every once in awhile Glade gets a burst of confidence and wants to have a good time. So she'll find a cute male and tease him a bit. Sometimes she'll leave all happy having talked to a cute stallion without being nervous, other times she'll suddenly realize what she's doing and panic, attempting to run away. More chances for tons of humor.

4. You're talking to me!: When others follow her enough she'll talk to them, almost no matter what. It makes her feel special. This can be good and get her the friends and maybe one day a mate that she wants. Other times it can be bad and lead to bad people being able to manipulate her. This can lead to lots of other plots depending on who she talks to and how they use her willingness to open up to people who make her feel so good.

5. A Mate for Me: Glade loves the thought of love and foals. She wants a family, but fears she'll never have one because of her shyness. However the guy comes into her life he needs to make her feel special, and actually chase after her. When they want foals he'll have to alleviate her fears of being a nervous nelly all the time and assure her it'll all be fine.

6. Manipulate Me: This is another only way for an ons for this little one. For Glade she's open to everyone who pursues her. If a male made her feel special enough he could convince her into anything. Including foals.

Both Genders-

1. The monster inside: If either one turns into a bit of a twisted they'll have huge insecurities about their looks. This will be the main reason for their reserved nature and so each of the above plots will also have a self-conscious feel to it and will add some extra trying to cope with who they are and whatever special things they have plots.

2. The Addams family: The family they come from has that strange feeling to them because of the twisted tunnel. Both babies will be overly protective of how people view this strangeness and even if they're shy they won't stand others teasing their family for it.

Any comments/notes?: Sorry about the overload of ideas! I just kinda let myself get carried away with the plots. Thank you so much for giving us all a chance at this little one and I hope even if I don't win this to plot with you in the future >w<

Username: ladyfirefox89
Link To Teepee: Here. Its a little more organized now, but still not perfect sweatdrop .

Basket Name: Male: Skuggi Răsuci , Female: Neralu Neidr
Name Meaning: Skuggi= Icelandic for shadow, Rasuci= Romanian for snake. I figure shadow since it is a Halloween breeding nwn. And snake because, well, the colors and markings remind me of a snake x3. Neralu is Kannada for shadow, Neidr is welsh for snake.

Personality: Personality will be for both genders<3. But I will be typing as if it were male hehe.
Sku is all sweet words, and a twinkle in his eye to either gender. For the first half hour that is. He tries to be smooth and sexy, but after he runs out of pick-ups so to say, he turns into his semi- bashful self. After running out of the smooth things he knows to say, he’ll start becoming more quieter and hide a little behind his hair. He’ll try very hard to keep up the conversation if the other soquili seems interested! He just doesn’t really know how to assert himself like his father.
He likes to watch strangers. He is very curious about them and will try and sneak up around them so that he can see what they do. If the soquili seems popular, sometimes he can be seen trying to mock them and also some day become popular. Deep down inside he really just wants to be the overwhelmingly strong and powerful soquili he sees his father to be.
His favorite thing is to be in the sun. It warms his whole body and seems to put energy in. He also hates the cold.

I am basically modeling his personality after a snake x3. Because I love snakes. Except I don’t want him to be evil. An occasional trickster maybe, but I doubt ever evil.

Possible Plot Ideas:
~I want him to have some rps where his father tries to teach him how to be brave and assertive. I also want him to catch Sku spying on other soq and tell him he shouldn't be doing that.

I am usually pretty good at coming up with plops nwn. Once I know the family and the surroundings. But I want to get this in before it closes cause I really love this basket whee .

Any comments/notes?: I am super psyched I found this before it closed =D! I have loved Cadmium since I joined soquili and it is exciting being able to join her family<3. And given the opportunity to be able to do family role play with new people always puts my heart a flutter nwn<333. Thank you very much for hosting this heart 4laugh

SummedUp ponies!
I dismantled my old teepee and am starting over. I have Info for each of my soquili it's just in a word document on my computer. 

Special note:
I put this here because it will be kind of confusing if you read the rest of my form without knowing this key bit of Information. 
In basic the plot is for the basket  to be adopted or apprenticed by or to my homosexual mare Cinis. A fire priestess who will NEVER have a breeding of her own. Her eventual love mate might choose to have a surragate cinis herself will not be touched by a stallion. The adoption or apprenticeship can come into play anyway the owners of the parents wish to plot it. 
-Loosing the basket, in a natural disaster.
- skinwalker tries to pack the basket off in the middle of the night but is thwarted. 
(Cinis fights with fire-Literally!) 
- Deciding that three may be to many to handle esspecily with their twisted nature. 
- or even at a very young age the after the basket pops the foal could run away from home and Cinis could adopt the foal. 
- the foals partially twisted nature causes the parents to seek help. Cinis is what they find and she does indeed help. Forever changed by the experience the foal would ask to go live an apprentice under Cinis. 
- Maybe even the parents could notice a special something about the foal and want that special thing to better explored so they hear of Cinis and ask her to take the foal on as an apprentice.  
(like one on one boarding school) 

Anyway the adoption or apprenticeship could occur whatever makes this possible in your eyes. Plot or RP. 

The adoption option is completely open to the foal seeking out his real parents later. My goal isint to take a foal away from its family entirely by any means. I just want Cinis to raise a foal of a particular kind* . Teach it about the forest and giving thanks to the sprits. I want to add a spiritual flare (essentially an active religious aspect) to the soquili cannon and I think this would be the perfect way to do so. This basket would be a key piece of something that could be extremely important to something that has been really lacking up till now. 

*That particular kind being.
Cerynei X Regular breed blood much like Cinis. 
Heavily nature inspired. 


Basket Name: 
Palus or Cypress
Both are gender neutral and depend on how the foal looks. 
 
Name Meaning: 
Palus: directly translates to swamp in Latin.
Plus pal is a cute nick name! 
Cypress:  For the cypress trees which are known for their longevity and are common in swamps. 
As a personal note I also chose it because I <3 cypress trees. 

Personality: 
Temper word: Pious
More in depth. 
(We will pretend the basket is a male and use the name palus or pal. Also I divide my personalities into parts because as we grow our personalities progress i feel the same should be done with soquili.)

Foal part 1
(right after basket popping and before plot # 1) 
Palus has a whole slew of health issues. His unless its raining or he is in water his skin hurts. He barely sleeps and it causes him to lash out at his family. Sometimes he even does things just to be mean and seems to enjoy it. . .

Foal part two. (After meeting Cinis) 
He is a happy regular foal. Full of energy.  No more malicious acts or lashing out. With proper recommended herbs his skin is even doing better. He loves his family but has found a new love as well . . .the sprits. 

Young adult. (start of apprenticeship) 
Apprenticeship is hard with so much to learn and do but it his passion so he never gives up. 

Adult 
Palus is a strong and wise stallion. Ever with a smile and a helping hoof. Especially for twisted tunnel foals who sometimes need help more than most. 

Possible Plot Ideas: 
Let's pretend you opted for the foal to be apprenticed to Cinis at a young age. 

-Plot one.
Aditi and Kenji were rather concerned about their three baskets right away. They looked unusual and did unusual things. They hopped perhaps it was just a fluke that the foals who lay nestled inside were as normal and healthy as the day was long. When the baskets popped however they found their hopes were dashed like glass upon stone. Each basket was a  twisted version of their union in its own unique way. 
The third basket however is the focal point of this plot and it's partial mutation caused some . . .health concerns. The foal struggles greatly in dry environments and it's temper is constantly in the red zone even lashing out at his brothers and sisters for no reason.  No matter how kind Kenji and his mate try to be it seems there is nothing they can do. They seek help and hear of it eventually in the form of a mare by the name of Cinis. She examines the foal and finds that he is inhabited by a twisted sprit. She feels that she can heal the spiritual damage that has been done but it's appearance will only become more twisted with age. Through fasting herbs and prayers to the good sprits of nature the foal is cured of his violent tendencies. The power of faith prevails. 
- Plot 2
The foal returns home with his family. Life is good he has changed for the better but in another way as well. He is inspired and wishes to help others in the way that Cinis helped him. He finds his way back to Cinis and asks to learn how he can help other as she did.
Admiring his desire and faith he tells him the harsh truth. A Life devoted to faith is a difficult journey and not something one can learn in lessons held once a week. It is an all or nothing and selfless kind of thing. Apprenticeship is the only way. 
- Plot 3
His mind made up and with his parents blessing he returns and begins his apprenticeship. He is Cinis shadow in all things of a life of devotion. A quick learner and an eager pupil. 

- Plot 4
during his apprenticeship a very important task of his is to feed the flame. A small fire that the whole herd depends on to light their ceremonial head dresses which they use for worship and to defend against predators. 
He forgets one day while distracted by another task and the flame dies. He is ashamed and afraid but without hesitation tells Cinis the truth despite his fear of her canceling his apprenticeship over the matter. 
Instead together they are able to rekindle the last shred burning back into a life brining flame. He learns a valuable life lesson about doing the right thing right away and how good acts are always rewarded in one way or another. 
(I didn't explain it very well but it's going to be a very important RP) 

- Plot 5
After a year or two of apprenticeship (in char not in actual time I don't think . . .maybe a year in RL) 
Cinis who is beyond blown away by how well he has done. Asks him if he would be willing to start his own mission. He accepts and travels for a time looking for the perfect place to start spreading the good word. 
Eventually he will find a swamp and collect some followers perhaps even an apprentice of his own. 



Each option in the special note section has multiple different plots I just figured you wouldn't want to read all of them. . .if you have any questions feel free to ask. 

Any comments/notes?:
I am a very active RPer and a super active soquili community member. My goal is to create something that will add what's been missing to the soquili cannon. We speak of the sprits we even have elders that are a result of the sprits selecting them. We need a group of soquili who's job it is to act as that voice to spread the word and speak of actual worship to guide those in need of spiritual guidance. 
Cinis is the start of that but she will need a pupil. 

I opted for the apprenticeship or adoption plot line not only for cinis but Because I know not everyone has as much time for RP as I do. 
So with some one else "raising the foal" it would mean the foal could  have a lot of in depth developmental RP with less commitment to the owners of the parents having to be active RPers. 
Just makes it easy for everyone. 



Ps. I wrote this all my IPhone. I will fix it when I get to a computer if I have time before the contest ends.

Basket Name: Lalinnom
Name Meaning: it has no meaning, i made it up >D

Personality: Lalinnom, well he is kind of creepy. not in the kind were you see him hanging dead animals from trees creepy, but the kind of creepy where you think someone is watching you. its the little things that make him happy...like staring at you when you wake up, or always being right around the corner to make it look like he never leaves you alone. he goes through incredible lengths to make these little things happen. he also tries to be as vague as possible when talking to people so that if anything of coincidence ever happens he can claim that he predicted it. he just likes to keep people on their toes, and wants people to view him as strange and mysterious, but tries way too hard to make that happen.

Possible Plot Ideas:

its no fun if i just gave you all of his plots up front, thats like spoiling the story, so im going to follow Lalinnom's mysterious personality and only give you the title of possible plots and you can just fill in the rest with your own imagination.

-I see what you did there
-Was that really necessary?
-Don't blame your ill fortune on me
-Hey didn't i tell you to avoid standing under Willow trees
-You are pretty...and i really like the way you tuck your head under your arm when you sleep...
-Gee if only people would take me more seriously
- See you all thought i was crazy, but look, i was right all along
-Don't eat that
-Can you plan a pregnancy, but make it look like you foretold it would happen?
-Man arn't kids just the most gullible things ever



Any comments/notes?: i just kind of had fun with this. but, i love family rp and rp in general. don't worry im not the kind to just grab the basket and breed, everyone of my soquili has a plot and a purpose. also have you even noticed that it is way more obnoxious to wake up to crows in the morning vs songbirds...

Basket Name: (Bayou for a male, Nyissa for female)

Nyissa is the smallest of the countries of the West in David Eddings' book series The Belgariad and The Malloreon. Nyissa is named after its god Issa, who is the snake-god. As a result of their God's totem animal, snakes are deeply respected and admired for their beauty in Nyissa, and are common pets there.

Bayou-- Geography name: a slow-moving river or swamp.
Name Meaning: (if there is one, I'd love to hear it)

Personality: For both genders

Their own natures twisted by the tunnel, they have no choice of having the life they should have.

Born from the twisted tunnel (will be using she but same for either) she had a certain affinity for dark and twisted things. Nightly, she dreamed of zombies and dead hands and paws and hooves coming for her.

She's brave but not the smartest at first. She doesn't trust, she's reserved and angry.

Possible Plot Ideas: I'd like her to run away for a short while as a foal to learn some things of the swamp--and to see if any of her dreams are real. She goes back to her family, but though she loves them she doesn't believe as they do. The darkness has progressed in her heart.

She joins up with a bad group and starts to blend into their ranks. She uses her skills with the likes of Morsmordre and other groups. She hides the slaves that Morsmordre takes and holds them in the swamps until they are broken, killed or sold.

But at heart, she is true to her family. The whole thing an elaborate ruse to find out where the missing soquili have been going and how to stop the coming invasion.

Any comments/notes?: Sorry this is short, I'm really tired and I've been sick all week. Thank you for the opportunity!

Basket Name: Cypress
Name Meaning: A types of Swamp. Cypress swamps are found in the southern United States. They are named for the bald cypress tree. Bald cypress trees are deciduous trees with needle-like leaves. They have very wide bases and "knees" that grow from their roots and stick up out of the water. Bald cypress trees can grow to 100 to 120 feet tall.

Personality: Deceptive.

Mush like the ecosystem he was named for (though his parents likely chose said name more for his colors then his personality) Cypress is a little bit two faced. Much as a swamp can be a paradise of abundance for those who know it well, and a deadly hazard for those who don't - Cypress tends to appear as the perfect family member when he or she is at home. Kind, loyal..brave there is little or nothing Cypress doesn't appear to do willingly when in the presence of his or her siblings or parents. Those who know the family would be hard pressed to say or find anything out of sorts with Cypress.

And that is exactly how Cypress wants it to stay. Cypress seriously believes in a 'you don't make messes where you live' philosophy and he or she is quite keen on keeping his or her home as a safe base to return to. A haven to relax when he or she is not out in the world practicing his or her more...unethical mischief.

When not at home Cypress is a devil, he or she enjoys tormenting those they meet for his or her own amusement, a typical swamp monster they will appear from the depths, wreak havoc and then slip quietly away into the mist. Cypress' forms of havoc take on many guises and is typically determined by the situation he or she finds themselves in. Luring foals to be lost in the woods, stealing precious items, luring a faithful love into being unfaithful and even, on occasion, murder..are all fair game to Cypress when he or she is out an about. Like a good criminal however Cypress' crimes are never ever committed in the vicinity of 'home' . Cypress is the good wonderful neighbor that everyone would be shocked to hear is a serial killer.

Possible Plot Ideas: I like plots to be worked out in RP rather then set in stone before hand. RP tends to more organic (and thusly epic) plots in my mind..but I do have some plausible ideas that might be fun to explore!

Obviously some family time would be great..Cypress will need to establish was a nice good sort of Soquili they are! We can't have others doubting his or her good moral ways now can we?

Trouble outside of home is obviously a must a well, it will be important to establish both sides of Cypress equally well.

Someday it might be fun for someone to 'investigate' Cypress and attempt to prove to his or her family what they have been doing when not at home =-) How this works out of course could be done in many ways..and end in equally as many!

Any comments/notes?: Beautiful pairing and beautiful baskets! Thanks for the chance to join the family.

♀ "Intoxicating"--Medb was a warrior queen in Irish legend. | "Watchful, alert"--the Polish form of Gregory. ♂

Personality: {{
A creature lurks in the shadows before sinking into the mire, struggling not to sink into the depths. However, it it no match for the swamp. The creature gets pulled into the muck, a faint gurgling sound escaping from its mouth as it meets its end. A horse stands at the edge of the swamp, staring at the place where the creature died. A soft smile appears on her lips, and she silently turns away and walks off without any more emotion.


Medb is a flirtatious mare without a care in the world. She's a total heartbreaker and the very definition of "girls just wanna have fun." She has a very distinct memory and never forgets a familiar face, even if she's only seen them once. However, she's not all that great with names and can rarely remember them. First impressions are lasting impressions to Medb. She holds grudges like nobody's business and can be very apathetic at times. She doesn't have a very good understanding of other people's feelings, and often thinks of her own well-being more than another's. Her loyalty and respect is very hard to earn. However, if you're one of the very few she does have respect for, then she'd follow you to the ends of the earth. She'd almost blindly loyal and a fierce protector. She's snarky and sarcastic to almost everyone, but especially to those she doesn't like. And trust me, there's a lot of those.

However, due to her birth from the Twisted Tunnel, she's not completely normal. When she goes to sleep each night, her body seems to do its own thing, much like sleepwalked, if you will. She, of course, has no idea what happens. The sleepwalker will go into the swamp, dragging poor little animals like squirrels and rabbits, and drown them in the mire. Then she'll just walk off and lie back down, as if nothing happened. When morning comes and Medb wakes up, she has no clue what happened that night. So far, she's only killed small animals, but who knows? Maybe one day she'll try for something much larger...}}

A creature lurks in the shadows before sinking into the mire, struggling not to sink into the depths. However, it it no match for the swamp. The creature gets pulled into the muck, a faint gurgling sound escaping from its mouth as it meets its end. A little foal stands at the edge of the swamp, staring at the place the creature died. He murmurs something, then turns and runs away, crying and screaming something. Maybe someone's name, perhaps? We'll never know.


Grzegorz is a pretty strange guy. He has a very twisted sense of strength, feeling that emotion, fear, and pain are just symbols of weakness. The truly strong never feel pain; it has left them. He doesn't get attached to anyone or anything on purpose; it's a sign of weakness, of course. He rarely talks to anyone, even his family. He'd rather rely on brawns than brains--smart stallions are just cowards in disguise. He believes that the weak and the cowardly do not deserve a place in this world; only the strong were meant to survive at all. The ones that are not strong but still alive somehow cheated death. He can't seem to wrap his (very small) brain around it though...

Grzegorz was emotionally scarred from childhood. At one point, he'd been a pretty normal, fun-loving foal. He was incredibly energetic and loved exploring and going on adventures with everyone he knew. But, after watching his [[insert relation here]] drown in the swamp during one of their "adventures", he was so terrified that he tripped on a root as he ran away. And, of course, because of the Twisted Tunnel, he saw a hallucination as he blacked out. It was a rotting horse's head, swarming with maggots. It began to speak to him in his hallucination and he began to think it was real. It told him of strange things--for one, it convinced him that the strong are the only ones fit to survive, and all of that BS. Now, every once in a while, the rotting head returns to him in a dream or a vision. He's begun to think it's real, and he even has a name for it--Master. He follows its every bidding, thinking that its a god or something, when really, it's just all of his fear and emotion being let out. When Master tells him to do something, he'll do it, no matter the cost. But what is Master, really? Well, it's probably just a figment of his imagination, but it could be something much, much worse...}}

Possible Plot Ideas:
Medb falls in love, but he's the only one that isn't gonna be convinced by her innocent heartbreaker act. What will she do to make him love her?
Medb has a one-night stand, but it led to some pretty unexpected...things. (BEBBEHZ)
Medb's childhood friend told her he was gay. But, after a near-death experience for both of them, he admits to her that he wan't. In fact, he was in love with her since the beginning.
Medb tries to drag a loved one into the mire as she sleepwalks. But when they discover it's her, they can never fully trust her again.
Medb utterly hates this one stallion. Hates him. But what can she do when he falls for her?

After years of suppressing emotions, Grzegorz finally meets someone who might be able to change his mind above love. The problem is, Master doesn't approve at all. When faced with the most difficult decision in his life, which will Grzegorz choose--the cruel world inside his head or loving reality?
When his family is threatened by [[insert something dangerous here]], will Grzegorz be able to stand back and watch them die, as Master has told him to do?
When Master tells Grzegorz to main a loved one to prove himself worthy, Grzegorz isn't sure he can do it. But when Master punishes him--severely, Grzegorz thinks that maybe Master isn't so benevolent after all. And the people around him begin to think that Master might not be so imaginary anymore.

Any comments/notes?: I'm pretty sure I'm too late. XD Something came up. I'm sorry if I can't enter, disqualify me if you feel that it's the right thing to do.

Thank you everyone for taking the time and entering. There were a lot of really, really good personalities and plot ideas and it was really tough to pick a winner.

Seriously, I greatly enjoyed reading everyone's entries and I actually re-read the ones I couldn't pick between over and over again, and there were lots that I couldn't pick between. =3

I hope all of you would love to RP with the twisted lil' siblings sometime. ^.^
