Opening: Now ish? Closing: Saturday night PST (9:00pm)
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2014 5:17 am
The parents:
Name: Alaistair Ryn Delnaria Sister:Amirynth Likes: Magic, puzzles, riddles Dislikes: Being around idiots Personality: Alaistair is a grumpy soul who can be very stand-offish. He isn't too friendly around others and much prefers his solitude where he can study the different magics around him. Alaistair enjoys a good riddle and sometimes you can entice him into conversation with puzzles and the like. He is very thoughtful, however, and often spends his time pondering the great mysteries of the universe. It took him forever to realize he had feelings for Luthien. Before, he just traveled with her in return for her healing him when he had a run-in with some kalona. He pledged to keep her protected as she journeyed to and from her herd lands. When the fires ravaged the lands they lost each other and it was then he was struck with how much he cared for her. It then took him a while to express such feelings but it was as if Luthien already knew. They make a good couple as she is able to keep him grounded when he gets tied up in his thoughts. She is also usually the more charismatic of the two and smooth any hurt feelings he may cause with his abrupt and caustic attitude.
Name: Luthien Tinuviel Personality: Luthein is a deeply caring soul, a healer by trade she is compassionate about helping others often to her own determent. She has a soft touch and a gentle voice, her presence alone is often enough to sooth some, she gives of a motherly aura of love and comfort. Her healing expertise is mostly focused upon physiotherapy, working on Soquili injured from the Rockslide falls has meant she has a great knowledge of repairing anything from a simple cut or graze to offering support physically and mentally to a Soquili with a broken leg; an injury often fatal to a Soquili due not be able to move easily, to protect ones self amongst other things.
Besides her motherly healer side, Luthein to friends and love ones is enchanting to be around she loves to sing and dance, she is refined and elegant and moves a fluidity of motion. She laughs and smiles and lives as though nothing troubles her. She is pure Angeni and can transform into human form, this is something she does rarely, when a Soquili is requiring fine work with human hands to heal them, or when she is at her most joyous, when a human throat can beat a horses hands down and she desires to sing her heart out. Though on the flip side she also takes on human form to sing when she is at her lowest, to raise her spirits and those around her.
Personal Quirks: 1) Not afraid to get her ‘hooves’ dirty, Luthien gets stuck in as best she can to help out others, whatever that may be. She does however take pride with caring for her hair, for she has plenty of it, she can often been found under one of the three waterfalls in the herd lands showering. Though generally speaking she’d never admit to such vanity. 2) To marry up with the time spend caring for her hair, she also takes time to weave in small white flowers, these change from season to season though she always favors white. Their perfume is light and fragrant, she doesn’t like over bearing smells. 3) Will defend Alaistair even when he’s insulted someone, she loves him unconditionally and tries to make others see underneath all his layers he truly is a stallion worth having around.
Notes: Tinúviel is not a family name, it is a ‘pet’ name or second name belonging to her alone. If you want to carry on a family name when naming your foal please consider Delanaria.
Dior Delanaria: (Jungle's basket) Mostly taking after his father in many things. He has little aptitude for healing like his mother and is generally not as approachable as her. He is a little more kind hearted than Alaistair though not much, he is a proud Soquili and vain with it. He takes an interest in a the role as protector from an early age and trains under his betters to become a great warrior, though his mother constantly works on lowering his self pride and attempts to get him to under take chores with helping the injured to walk once again.
Early morning mists block the line of sight beyond 5 metres, but as the morning mist disappears and you make your way deeper into the valley, bordered on either side by foreboding cliff faces, you lay eyes upon Imladris.
Imladris, or Rivendell as it's known by those which don't call it home, is the area which lifts the soul. It is set deep within a lush green valley, boarded on either side by the central mountains. Coming up from the lowlands, looking to the right the cliff isn't as serve in gradient, the slopes make for easier climbing. However past Imladris is the Rockslide falls, here the mountain forests grow thick and twisted, the roots of the trees is the only thing that keeps the soil in place, as below the thin layer of soil are loose sheets of rock, which provide the area with it's forsaken name.
Imladris exists because Soquili will always believe the can conquer all, but really mother nature is the true ruler. Imladris and it's resident herd members provide a sanctuary for those who have been fool hardy enough, in the attempts of adventure, to attempt to climb the Rockslide falls and failed. The herd members are some of the best healers in the area and provide months of healing knowledge to bring Soquili back to their hooves. They also provide shelter to those travelling to and from the Uunule Noyi desert.

Name: xXToxicIllusionsXx How many soquili do you own? 4 Name of foal: Ceridwen: Blessed poetry Murali: Flute Temper: Spirited Personality blurb: Ceridwen Is much like her mother, caring and compassionate, but she often does not know how to show it. She finds it hard to open up about who she really is to others that she does not know, so she fills that void by putting up a mask, pushing others away and testing them to make sure they will stay long enough to open the wrapper around the pure sweet chocolate inside.
That hard shell seems to keep out most, making her seem like a loner, but inside she just wants to understand herself. Kindness is in her nature. Once she opens up, her heart starts to rest on her sleeve. She tries to care and love, to give herself over to help someone. It is just the work to get this far makes things hard. Plots/ideas: I am thinking maybe a small fight with the siblings, nothing enough to drive them a herd, but maybe fight over something they both want, this causing them to be a little off around one another for a little while until something happens to draw them closer. I am thinking both of the children end up falling in a hole while having an argument,. This causes them to have to work together to get out.
Another plot is that once an adult the Soq gets kidnapped by a Kalona, or another evil Soq, and they family has to come find them. In the mean time they try to escape, this ending up with them wounded badly. In the end they are saved.
Creative entry:
When they speak of this, It holds none of the power Their words are dry, Colorless and lost When they look at this, Desire overwhelms longing hearts. These things are so small, In a world so large In a moment so blind. This is of joy Pure and whole Love between two opens All dark doors close. Embraces of purity What once was us Now means so much more For now we are one in three Three so young
Let them walk from the dark Into the light. Explore the World now so small May they find what is shared between two Bring this feeling into their own hearts. Love is like a fire Watch it spread and grow. From two to their own So much more to come So much more love to feel Open your hearts For new life has come
Life so brave Wise and soft Growing and blooming Blossomed in red Red the powerful color How can it dance in such ways Family so caring Hands of nurturing Once so young will become more This will bring them wisdom This will being them hope Most of all, this will bring them the simple joy.. That started it all...
Name: Zaikt. How many soquili do you own? Six! ; u; Name of foal: Note ; I'd love to give them the Delnaria surname if I win, but I'd rather ask permission before doing so--it's pretty clear that Alaistair is an OC. c': If Male ; Caelius - Roman family name, derived from caelum: heaven. If Female ; Lendanis - Quenya Elvish, journeywoman. Temper: Bright. Personality blurb: Written as Caelius, but this won't change if it turns out that they're Lendanis instead. Caelius is easily summed up in one word: vivacious. He lives to do and to be, and refuses to slow down for just one second to rest when he could be doing other things instead. His mind is always working, gears turning nigh-constantly to process information gathered on his jaunts or to concoct some trinket that he thinks would be interesting to make. Cael is an intelligent foal with potential that only promises to grow as he gets older, and it's no doubt that he'll soon be devising even more elaborate crafts in his future. He's frustrated by how clumsy his hooves and teeth are, and frequently enlists the aid of various familiars--even if they aren't his--to assist him as he works. All that aside, Cael is definitely a momma's boy, and wants nothing more than to please both of his parents. He has problems with taking time to relax, and has a nagging need for perfection that should honestly be kept in check before it develops to possibly wreck him. His heart is in the right place, but with his desire to see as much as possible and keep moving, it's far too easy for him to come off as brash or rude when in actuality, he's just too excited by everything to settle down and talk. Quiet is also not a word he knows, and Caelius seems to lack what most people would call an inside voice--while he's capable of bringing it down to tolerable levels, even then, he tends to speak a little louder than would typically be considered normal. It's not surprising that he's a bit lacking in the patience department, but his temper is very easily subdued by a few careful words or a disapproving look.
Plots/ideas: [+] One day, Caelius might stray a little too far from the herd. That isn't going to say that he'll wind up lost or separated, no--but there's the possibility of him meeting a less-than-savory type that's been lurking near the Rockslide Falls or somewhere closer. This could do to show him that maaaybe it isn't such a bad idea after all to stop and think before charging out into the wide unknown. [+] Sibling rivalry? Quite the opposite, in fact. Caelius is going to adore his siblings, plain and simple--they're his, after all. How can they not be the best? This may result in him getting a little too clingy until somebody tells him that he might want to relax. [+] As a crafter, Cael will always want to better his skills. He'll eventually get it in his head that he should make something nice for his mother, and that will be the start of a long series of one-upping himself as he strives to make the most beautiful trinket possible. In the process, he's going to have to barter and trade with other soquili and familiars to get the materials and assistance he needs, and the sheer amount of interactions with people would teach him not only an inside voice, but how to better convey his ideas and feelings. That way, he doesn't seem like he's brushing others off in search of the next interesting thing. [+] His father's study of magic is going to be highly intriguing to Caelius, and he's undoubtedly going to poke into that as much as possible. It's something new and different, not to mention really cool--needless to say, Cael would most certainly want to learn more about it. Perhaps they can have some father-son bonding over that!
Name: How many soquili do you own? 15 own, 3 co-own Name of foal: Nuitaestior Delanaria - Hope is a beloved elven flower (resource) Temper: Gentle Personality blurb: Nuitaestior is fairly quiet. Not shy, just slow to reveal his [just going to use male pronoun for ease here] thoughts. Often 'Aestior silently watches the interactions of others but holds personal opinions close. Learning from Alaistair that words can be tools and weapons, 'Aestior chooses to keep his words reserved. And has figured out that when he does speak, because it is so seldom, others are more inclined to listen. From Luthien 'Aestior learned to love others, to enjoy beauty and heal. 'Aestior enjoys time of solitude to contemplate thoughts and to better appreciate others when in company. But at heart, 'Aestior believes in helping others and can often be found in the mountain forests or near the cliff face, looking for those in need of aid. Plots/ideas: ~ The value of silence: 'Aestior loves being with his family. And while quite young he notices the impact of Alaistair's words on his siblings, as well as that of the gentle voice of Luthien. He spends time near his parents, watching the way they interact with the others in the herd. At the end of the day, 'Aestior talks to both parents. With Alaistair he questions the harsh way the stallion treats the world. With Luthien he asks about the songs she sings and why they make everyone relax. And 'Aestior begins to formulate the idea that words can be used for more than just communication. ~ Helping feels right: 'Aestior is out playing with his siblings when they come across a hurt traveler. He hasn't yet learned to heal, but understands the wounded mare needs help. 'Aestior and his siblings work together to help the injured soquili and to get help from the herd. Afterwards 'Aestior is filled with a sense of accomplishment and joy for having made a difference for another. ~ This path is mine to walk: 'Aestior loves his family but can not stay in the relative safety of Imladris all the time. Despite the worries of the others, 'Aestior knows that he is called to patrol the mountain for those who need the herd's help. ~ The herd is home: Despite how often 'Aestior is away from the herd, he always travels home to rest and recover from his journeys. And each time he makes sure to spend time with his parents and siblings. He will often try and bring something back with him for each of them to show that they are always in his heart. ~ The heart is a strange thing: 'Aestior never really thought about love, never went looking for it. But he can't help when it comes for him. While out looking for those to help, 'Aestior finds someone who initially sends him in the other direction [a kalona or 'twisted'/creepy or otherwise disturbing soquili]. But the stranger needs his help. And in caring for them, 'Aestior's heart doesn't just open to see them as more than outward appearances, but opens enough to let them in. ~ Responsibility isn't a burden: When 'Aestior finds love and they start a family, he knows his days of wandering are over. Returning full time to the valley, 'Aestior is happy to spend his time with his mate and their children. Though he occasionally misses the emptiness of the mountain, his heart is too full of his family to mind.

Name: SwordOfTheDarkOne How many soquili do you own? 1 Co-Own Vs. 1 Full Own (freshly joined) Name of foal: As Male- Lafnae Soltria (MoonWhisper MemoryDancer) As Female- Rudul Kerthil (DreamGlade SpellWing) Source Temper: Inquisitive Personality blurb: (personality will not alter with whatever gender the foal turns out to be)
This little foal enjoys listening to stories and gathering knowledge. They adores finding new things around the herd's territory normally dashing back to their parents once they finds something new to share with them. The foal learns quickly from mistakes made, normally after making them a few times that is (like every growing child XD )
Their kind and sweet, maybe a little too forgiving. So, most likely as life goes on this trait may be hardened out of them or just giving them a highly naive outlook on life in general. Always one to snuggle up in the sides of their siblings or parents the little foal is affectionate to the herd in general.
Plots/ideas: [+] Family festival- the little foal meeting many of the herd during their first week of life. New experiences and first lessons learned... [+] What's that- the foal and its siblings see a new being...the foal goes to investigate before bolting back to their parents if danger strikes. That or they learn a lesson and make a new friend!!! [+] Discovering the parents- the little foal learns more of what their parents enjoy to do...bonding ahoy~!
Creative entry: This is a Legend I wrote when I was 17...its also the basis of a book series I'm working on...
The Sea, a force beyond reckoning. If any should anger the powers that control it, may mercy and grace protect them from its vengeance. None passed by the Sea and so mankind as well as those of the supernatural order were parted by the vast waters and ever-changing tides. Progress was halted and the culture of each race starting to dim.
The Land, foundation of life. Those who lived off of it respected the grace it held, those who didn’t well it found a way to earn respect from them. All living things touch the Land in some way, though it was separated by its sibling the Sea. Lives were lived and spent upon it, so life went on…dulling as it did so.
The Sky, a portal for dreamers. The creatures of the Sky were frightened to cross the stormy Sea, so they too started to dim as the Sea grew more violent and untamed. It is a means for dreamers to create stories that were not true of lands beyond that of the vast water. Many who braved the Sea were led by the stories, so the dreamers were ignored and culture died again.
Before balance was bestowed upon these three great majesties, the Moon and the Sun overlooked them. It was said that a terrifying dragon was the soul of the Sun while a beautiful dragon was the soul of the Moon. The two Great Dragons of Life, as they were later to be known, grew worried and upset over the issues of life upon the world they so cherished. So, the two joined on a Solar Eclipse and the Great Dragon of the Sky was born.
The Great Dragon of the Sky, took to the clouds. They say that if one ever sees a gathering of clouds shaped like a slumbering dragon then that is the resting place of the Great Dragon of the Sky. He brought calmness to the skies that covered both Land and Sea, so creatures of the Sky traveled and prospered.
That was not enough, on yet another Solar Eclipse the two Great Dragons of Life joined. Thus the Great Dragon of the Land was born.
The Great Dragon of the Land, took to the one island that joined all other lands in the coldest region of the world. If one were to brave the journey they would surely see the mountain of this Great Dragon. Never climb that mountain for it is the Great Dragon of the Land himself, slumbering like his elder brother; the Great Dragon of the Sky. The Sun Dragon was pleased, but the Moon Dragon still worried. They had two sons to protect the balance of the Land and the Sky yes…but what about the Sea. So, on a Lunar Eclipse the two Great Dragons of Life joined for the last time bringing into existence; the Great Dragon of the Sea.
The Great Dragon of the Sea, took to where the Sea was most chaotic. Sleeping inside of a pool on an unmapped island in the center of the waters is the Great Dragon of the Sea. If one were to peer into the water the dragon could be seen, but beware there are other things that reside in the water that would devour any who wish ill to the dragon.
It is said that once a greedy King tried to capture the Great Dragon of the Land, the King and his naval fleet took to the Sea. His evil woke the Great Dragon of the Sea who unleashed the chaos. You see as the Dragons slept balance was kept, but once they awoke they would unleash the building chaos and never stop until they felt it was time. Once the chaos had stranded the King and a few of his warriors on the Island of the Great One, it spread to the peaceful villages that lived along the coast of the Land. The Great Dragon of the Sea was deaf to the cries of the souls lost to the chaos, until one day.
The child was 7 when her father set out to find the Dragon’s Pool and plead with him to go back to sleep. The man was not a fisher, but a bard that spent his days singing songs of hope and love to his four daughters and one son. When the chaos surged he parted from his beloved family, hopeful that he could find the Pool and somehow lull the dragon to sleep. He never came home, and so seven years of chaos passed. The children were on they’re own as the chaos stole their mother from them one night. The eldest daughter was 19 years, the second was a set of twins at 17 years, the child was 14 and the only son was 13. The child set out in a boat fit for two, her brother joined her as he was a musician and brought with him his flute and lyre. Their elder sisters saw them off, knowing that the chaos wouldn’t touch the two pure hearts that set out. The two would never know what happened to their sisters for the chaos swallowed the three, it is said that where the child and the only son set off from you can see a stone with two trees wrapped around it. Those are their sisters, never failing in seeing off their younger siblings they loved so much.
It took the two three days and four nights to find the Dragon’s Pool, once they did they wandered inside where a creature of terrible fear awaited them. The Guardian of the Great Dragon is said to be a serpent with the upper body of a man, who has five mouths and a hundred claws. The Guardian drew back at the purity inside the children for it was an incarnation of chaos, so the children passed into the cavern where the pool resided. The Great Dragon was sitting on a smooth spiral rock, it was beautiful. The Dragon listened to the children and felt sorrow. At the sight of its tears the two children decided to play it a song that their father taught them. As the children played the Dragon felt peace calm the chaos and soon slipped back into the Pool to sleep.
As the children left it is said that the Moon Dragon bestowed upon The Child’s blood the mark of the Great Dragons so that should any of the Moon’s sons wake, a female of her bloodline who bore the mark of the Great Dragon that had awoken would be able to put them back into their slumber. It is also said that the Sun Dragon bestowed upon the only son the mark of the Void Dragons, terrible Dragons of the purest shadow that existed only to induce chaos and discord. The Sun Dragon had ensnared the three rulers of the Void Dragons and placed them as a last resort to protect his sons. Should the barer of the Mark of the Great Dragons be threatened, a bearer of the Void Mark would protect them. Should the Barer fail, the Dragon of the Mark would awake to ambush any who dared approach the slumbering Dragon they watched over.
And so, time passed…

Name: Angelique DelaMort How many soquili do you own? I own 10 soquili on my own (no co-owns) Name of foal: with your permission, I would love to use the family name - it's beautiful Female - Lindariel (Melody) Male - Laermeluion (Man with a sweet song) Temper: Melodious
Personality blurb: Writing for Lindariel but for Laermeluion it's still the same. This is a bright soul, but perhaps she is a little too audacious for her own good. She loves joking around and making people laugh, but she also has a great appreciation for nature and it's beauty and loves to sing its praises. Like her father, she loves riddles and when given one can be found puzzling it out to herself in a singsong voice. Unlike her father, though, Lindariel may become frustrated if she can not figure out a puzzle fast enough. This may change as she grows older, but for now she likes to have fun and she can be a bit impatient.
She's proud of her heritage and she loves her home. Though her healing powers are limited, Lindariel is the self appointed minstrel and always tries to bring joy to the sick and the injured through her lighthearted songs. She's also a bit of a prankster and seems to get a fiendish joy from occasionally annoying good friends and family with her music.
Plots/ideas: Lindariel tries not to let the fact that she's a lousy healer bother her, but she would love for her mother to give her lessons - even if she only learns basic things like what plants can help certain wounds.
She would also love to try to help her father solve his puzzles and swears she will *try* to not be extremely distracting during the process.
Lindariel is also a bit of a competitive soul. She would just love to challenge her siblings to any type of competition (even if it's not a singing competition).
She's also an artist ever searching for inspiration and seeks out travelers passing through their lands who can tell her about the far off places they've visited. While some part of her may want to see these places in person, she can not imagine ever leaving her family and the safety of their home. For now she is excited to hear the accounts of others and weave visions of far off lands with her lyrics.
Creative entry:
Homespun Hymn ~ a song Lindariel wrote to celebrate her home
The hills grow into mountains, The light fades into gray, All within this world will change In their own way
The stream leads to the river, The river to the sea, We are all connected In a land wild and free
The cliffs rise towards the sky Like the ancient kings of old, Their mists are like a crown, A distant jewel to tempt the bold
And here within the low lands We watch and then we wait, Arrogant explorers learn The true master of fate
Thus comes my honored mother, Soft spoken and demure, She'll heal the sick, she'll bless your wounds, Her voice gentle and pure
And then my treasured father, Though he may wear a frown, He'll match you wit for wit, And then he'll knock you straight on down
So here is my dear family And I am one of three, We're strong and smart and sweet and brave, I hope that you'll agree As for what the future holds, I guess that we will see!
Name: Brosephiine How many soquili do you own? Just one, all my own. <3 Name of foal: Túeniel (translates to daughter of strength) Candir (translates to bold young man) Temper: Light Personality blurb: Whether male or female, this foal will be a lively one! Graceful, full of laughter, and quick to jest. I want a character that's slightly unlike either parent, though they will have Luthien's ability to heal and be susceptible to some of Alaistair's grumpiness.
Túeniel specifically is the epitome of mirth. She's joyous, enjoys a good time, likes to dance, lithe and graceful and kind. When someone rains on her parade, however, she can lash out a bit. Not violently, but verbally to show she's disgruntled. She's never outright rude unless thoroughly provoked. Her temper can heat up quickly if someone pushes her buttons continuously. For the most part, she enjoys healing under her mother's guidance and enjoys meeting new faces. She also enjoys following her father around while he goes about studying various magics. Plots/ideas: (From Túeniel's perspective, though this works for Candir too.) The Traveling Mare - Perhaps Túeniel strays a bit too far from the herd and gets lost at a young age, left alone for a number of days. This might sober her up a bit, perhaps a good plot for a young adult. She'll have to face something on her own without the protection and guidance of the herd, perhaps either heal herself, help/heal a stranger, etc. all while finding her way home.
Magical Mishap - Túeniel spends a lot of time watching her parents and inherits her father's love of magic. She spends a lot of time thinking over his theories and pouring over the same questions he does. One day she decides to try some magic and ends up breaking a very important object. She attempts to enlist the aid of her siblings to help fix it, ending in a furious Alaistair, though eventually the botched repairs and thoroughly miserable look on Túeniel's face make for a hilarious story. Possibility for a lot of hilarious interactions between both siblings and parents.
Creative entry: So I thought of doing a couple piece for you guys, but I decided in the end to spend some time envisioning this new character. As such, I came up with this. c: (I do however have a couple piece based off this one in the works, but I need to finish my commissions first. >.<) So here's Túeniel!

❝I fell in love the way you fall asleep, Slowly then all at once ❞
Name: Anhikajeanine How many soquili do you own? co-own 0 v.s. full own 0 Name of foal: Aranel (It's Princess in Quenyan Elvish) Temper: Feisty (Aranel Has her Mother's Spirit and her father's strength.) Personality blurb: She's a wonderful mix of her mother's Minx like charm and her father's strong mindedness making her a force to be reckoned with. She can't sit still but she's determined to be as creative and strong as she sees her parents to be. She isn't very graceful normally because she tries too hard but when she's calm she shows her heritage. Plots/ideas: I'd like her to stay in the herd with her mother and father and be a bit of a trouble maker. Probably trying to keep up with her parents and her siblings.
*She follows her brother away from the herd without his knowledge and gets lost with him. *
*She watches her mother dance and play and she wants to try the same but fails. *
Creative entry:
Go out my child, Child of the fallen Rain and the tears of the stars. Find your charm, When the times call for it. Find our wits, When the problem seems too deep to solve.

Or to Forge your own through forests thick and lands red with the blood of men. Where will you go? What will your journey find for you? Remember though you are always welcome home. In the land of the forests and the beasts... And the Elves.
Name: Novablu How many soquili do you own? 16 owned, 2 co-owned Name of foal: Colt: Nicias / Filly: Nician (pronounced NEE-see-us / NEE-cee-ann -- aka Nici) - I made it up, but imo it sounds elvish. I would be honored to have his/her given name be Delanaria. Temper: Dauntless Personality blurb: Written as a female, but will be very similar as a colt as well.
As a filly: Nician is rambunctious and a little bit hyperactive with an imagination that runs miles wide; one day she might play-act as if she’s a pirate and the next, a princess, and the next a gypsy queen on the search for her lost herd. She’s fearless--which can pose a problem, because she yearns to leave the place where she was raised, yearns to explore the world…and maybe meet her knight in shining armor…or maybe meet the bad guy (she likes this idea. In her words: BRING IT ON!) But in her heart, she knows she might stray, but she could never leave her family. She daydreams of a happily-ever-after with a boy who would give her the world.
As an adult: Her childhood features are toned down, but she’s still flamboyant, stubborn, and loud. Tends to be blunt and to a point, but she hates hurting feelings, so she always regrets letting the words fly free. She’s very…unflirty, despite yearning for romance…which her attempts will vary from ‘aloof’ to ‘overbearing’. Her imagination soars, but she tries to keep herself in the Now, even when she wants to dream. She believes she can achieve anything she wants, if she only asks the stars for it; she’s very much a positive mare. That said--she’s an actress, an entertainer, still takes on facets of her ‘personalities’ (the pirate, the gypsy) at times; she’s fallen in love with acting, and fallen in love with those “characters” and sometimes just wants to be someone different than herself. She loves to make those around her laugh--definitely a born-performer.
Overall: She adores her family, especially fond of her mother’s elegance, something she feels she’ll never possess. Her perfect life would be Imladris, a haven to return to…but the freedom to find her heart in the big old world. Freedom to find her prince…because she knows he’s out there. Waiting for her.
But she would always return.
Plots/ideas: She would stay in the herd, but upon reaching adulthood, would ask permission to go on a journey--to fulfill her heart's wandering wishes, to meet the good and the bad and the inbetween, to realize her purpose and to entertain and sing and dance and act...and come home with a mate who holds her heart so tenderly. One she wants to bring home to mom and dad.
As a foal, she would attempt to be like her mother, idolizing her...but in reality, she'll realize that she can "play the part" but it's just an act--she has to come to terms with never being able to BE her mother, but that she's the only one who can be HERSELF. Self-realization RP.
As a foal, meeting others in the herd who find her play-acting, daydreamy nature weird or strange or 'abnormal' and she would have to come to terms with THIS--that she can't please EVERYONE. She can only make herself happy.
She'd be squeamish, unable to take on her mother's ability as a healer. The sight of blood--when it's not imagined in her head, because she loves action-dreams--makes her feel ill. This would be something for her to rise above and conquer.
Perhaps she meets her ‘knight’ as a colt and 1) their relationship blossoms as they grow up, kind of a boy-next-door sort of plot, 2) he could not be interested in the least and she can grow up wanting what she can’t have, 3) they get together and he breaks her heart--or she breaks his--and she deals with her first ‘failure’.
Or maybe she meets her knight as a colt and they hate each other--can’t stand each other--and are rivals…and then they somehow meet at adulthood and turn into lovers, meant to be…yet they still have their fiery moments. Maybe it’s not exactly a lovey-all-the-time relationship but they both truly love each other?
Anything that can cause inner turmoil and drama in the innermost spark of Nician’s heart.
Perhaps she falls in love with a Kalona. Or perhaps she’s conned by a Kalona? Her fearlessness needs a good kick in the pants?
Or maybe she falls in love with a mare instead of a stallion and is ashamed of it…has to deal with the secret and the possibility that maybe she’s not “normal” --but she yearns so badly for her mom and dad to accept her, no matter what. Growing pains because she’s always envisioned herself with a stallion…only to be blindsided by love in the opposite gender?
Either way she goes (romance wise) it would be a lifemate thing. She isn't the type to fling (unless someone breaks her heart, as seen above).
If the plot with a kalona/"bad guy" works through, I think instead of being "broken" by it, she'd be fighting for it--not only to protect herself, but to protect her herd and all the other beautiful creatures from the bad things of the world. With a little training and a lot of polish, she'd be a steadfast, dauntless warrior queen.
I think motherhood is something she would be terrified of--her only fear, of doing it wrong.
Depending, I will look into Elderhood when she has enough RP/plots under her belt--she would make a good "work in progress" where she goes from being a reckless, fearless filly to a mature, confident mare. She will never have her mother's elegance or ethereal beauty, and she will never be as strong and hardy as her father, but she will be comfortable in being herself and I think she'd make a strong, capable Elder.
Creative entry:Youtube Playlist, as I'm not particularly creatively talented. The entries of Connie Dover's are a childhood memory, haunting and beautiful, that my mother would always play. I felt they were fitting, perhaps a soundtrack to the sadder parts of Nician's life.
Josiah Leming's wordsmithery also caught my eye and I wanted to share those as well. The lyrics to 'Her' get me every time.
The Rocket Summer is a heavy dose of inspiration for me when I'm feeling depressed or uninspired, and his voice and the positivity of his lyrics really set Nician off. Again, if you don't listen to the entire song(s) then look up the lyrics <3

Name: Feydrah How many soquili do you own? Own: 2, Co-own: 1 Name of foal: Female: Caledra Delnaria, Male: Calebrindel Delnaria Neither of the names have a real meaning, since I made them up. But they both come from the root name Caleb, which faith, devotion, and whole-heartedness. In biblical lore, Caleb was noted for his astute powers of observation and fearlessness in the face of overwhelming odds. Temper: Tranquil Personality blurb: (This is written as a female, but if the colt is a male his personality would be mostly the same. As a male he would be a little bit more stoic and somber, and eventually a fatherly figure.) As a filly: Even at birth her soul is quiet and serene. Late to talk, even to this day she speaks with a careful tongue. She prefers to listen rather than converse, and she's always willing to lend an ear to those close to her. She possesses her mother's natural beauty and grace, by no fault of her own. Not one for vanity, she doesn't care for her own appearance or maintain her looks at all. Learning, and gathering information in any way is her passion, and she can sit through lectures for hours, or even listen to someone ramble on about nonsense. She'd like to train as a healer and apprentice under her mother.
As an adult: She grows into a compassionate and kind mare who is becoming a talented healer in her own right. Her bonds with her family are strong, though she longs to see the world beyond her herds territory. Though her loyalty is unfaltering, to her herd, her family, and friendships she's made. She'd like to find a mate, but its proven difficult for someone as quiet as herself.
Plots/ideas: ● As a filly, her siblings can speak and she rarely has - whether she isn't able to or simply chooses not to. It takes an event in which she is put under great duress for her to finally speak up. (Something like her siblings in danger, warning someone of a coming threat, or simply being teased or harassed to the point of anger.)
● Learning the ropes of wielding her magical talent under her mother, or another Soquili. She possesses great potential, though her magic is clumsy and she continues to fail or make things even worse. She is very hard on herself, as this talent is something she is passionate about, and it takes some convincing to encourage her to keep trying.
● An ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on, Caledra is always willing to hear someone's concerns or allow them to vent their frustrations. She is empathetic and compassionate, whether she offers advice or simply stays to listen.
● Taking care of the wounded. She, among others, is called upon to aid recovery after a disaster (battle, fire, flood, etc) and they come to the aid of strangers. This event would mark the first time someone's life is in her hands, and all of the preparation she's had will hopefully pay off...
● Going on a journey, she leaves the heard and comes back again. Just because there's no other place in the world she can call home as she does Imladris.
Creative entry: I made a Youtube Playlist of songs that make me think of the landscape of Rivendell. All these songs evoke the image of a beautiful paradise, somewhere magic flows through the rivers and trees.
Name: Mewsings of An Angel How many soquili do you own? 11 currently, with 2 baskets. Totally 13 once they open.
Name of foal: Female; Galadhwen (Elven for "Golden") Male; Idhrenion (Elven for "Wise") With the Delanaria surname for either.
Temper: Composed Personality blurb: As a foal, it could always be found getting into all sorts of trouble, underfoot and just being a little pest. As time goes by, it learns many hard lessons that lead to changes of mindset. From a bumbling youth, it becomes smarter and more choice-y about actions. Tending to ask a lot of questions and take critical examination of new things, it enjoys making records of any new discoveries for future generation to have access to. It loves to travel, but not always alone, enjoying company to loneliness.
Plots/ideas:
I will be using "it" instead of he/she to make things go quicker in my head as I do not know the gender and am making these plots as gender-neutral as possible.
---Foalhood--- ~Companions:: This plot would encompass the foal gaining a friend (whether a real one or an OOC, either another foal or a familiar). They stay together, and adventure together. This shapes it into becoming a bit of a pest for mother and father alike, venturing beyond their sight often (probably giving them a heart attack more than once.) ~Mischief!:: This kind of coincides with the companion egging it into doing something unthinkable, whether it be pestering it's siblings or getting into downright trouble by being underfoot with other herd members. ~Complete Stranger:: A stranger ventures into the group, and it being much too curious for it's own good, introduces itself to the stranger. What could go wrong? ~A Shadow Amongst Us:: It's first encounter with an evil species. Depending on how it plays out, it could be a life-changing experience where it either knows fear, or it learns respect. Or perhaps a little of both. ~Beyond Sadness:: The friend it grew up with leaves the herd, and it must cope with the loss. It would be a humbling experience and probably calm it down, mischievous side leaving for the most part with it's counterpart.
---Adulthood--- ~Dreams Unanswered:: It has a dream that leads to questions about what lies beyond it's home. It goes to it's father and asks questions about what is out there. ~Family Above All Else:: It learns to understand why family and even those of an extended nature (other herdmates) are so important. This could be with a possible battle from others, or by a sickness, or something that just brings everyone together. ~Visiting of Traders:: Traders from the desert visit the herd and there are many wares to see! And many questions to be asked. This could be a possible ORP between the herd and any of the Trader herd.
Many other plots could branch out of these plots or of course other plots could come later. <3

Golden hair unravels Here the tales of life lies
