RUUGA


Height: 5'4 (when fully grown)
Weight: 30kg (*terrible at conversions* not sure how many lbs or pounds that is...)
Gender: Male
Skin: Tanned olive
Eyes: Bright pink/purple
Hair: Lavender, with streaks of white
Wings: Large, majestic, and resembling that of a hawk.

Likes: Horses, running real fast, weaving, watching the clouds, being left alone by people and/or Ashe, smelling flowers, cooking over a campfire, bathing in a lake, climbing trees
Dislikes: Collapsed hay bales, being locked inside, fancy social occasions, bathing indoors, eating with a knife and fork, perfume, soap, snakes

Personality: Ruuga is a very out-doors boy, preferring to sleep under the stars than in a bed, to bath outside in a lake, or stream, to eat small animals he's caught and cooked himself, and drink fresh mountain water. He is very in-touch with nature, much like the native-americans, and cares deeply for all nature, but most of all the animals he lived with in his past.

He becomes nervous, and near-hysterical when locked indoors, and has no table manners whatsoever. At large social gatherings, or fancy dinner parties, he gets quiet, often hiding, or trying to escape outside. Though it appears he has a learning disability, it is simply that he doesn't want to learn, instead communicating through nodding, shaking, whining and small, subtle hand gestures.

He is only shy around people, and other Ashe, being very bold and heroic when it comes to his animals, willing to go neck-deep into a moving river to rescue a stranded beast, or scale a tree to stop it from being cut down.

RUUGA
PAST


From his earliest of days, Samuya loved and respected the animals in the Seelie court stables. He spent so much of his time with them that he became known, among the court, as the "stable boy". Of course, the animals were only there for recreation, and the odd race; and with no Fae connect deeply enough with the horse, the ox, the donkey and the bull, Samuya was allowed to become their guardian. He was very young when he was officially declared to be their carer, but accepted his new role happily; living with, and caring for the animals he had adored for so long.

Sometimes, late at night, Samuya snuck out with a strong stallion, riding it with glee through the wilderness.

He was not schooled, therefore learnt what little english he knew from the Fae who came in to talk to him, to see the horses, and take their mounts for whenever they were needed. He was intelligent, and learnt fast, however liked Fae, and especially humans, much less than the animals he lived alongside.

One night, a Fae guard had been patrolling, as had only recently become the custom, and barely seen Samuya through the darkness, riding out on the Seelie queen's most prized stallion. Thinking a human had dared to stray so close, and was stealing the priceless horse, the guard acted quickly, and struck Samuya down with a bow and arrow.

When he died, he was still quite young, though the guard, terrified at realizing his mistake, had quickly taken Samuya's body and hidden it, so Samuya had gone without any ceremony, and had not been noticed to be missing until the horse race preparation began, and the horses had died for reasons beyond the Fae. It had not been long enough for them to starve, and some said they had died along with their master, and friend.

((Okay, so I'm not 100% sure on Fae customs and history, even though I read the story through twice D8 please correct me if any of the info is off))

heart aww, thank you Lime ^w^

Fhthtlgg this is a really cute idea ; n ;; -spaz-

I do think the purple seems kind of out of nowhere in his appearance (not for his eyes, but his hair + the white? Stable boys always seemed somewhat plain to me, BUT HE'S AN ASHE, WHAT CAN WE DO? I guess my suggestion is more earthy colors o 3 o The browns and stuff are GREAT but maybe include some greens and reds somehow?

I'd love to see him at some point.
