***MEET THE MOOSE***
Woohoo... he's finished!! I tell you, he's spoken to me all the way through this and he's told me exactly what he wants to look like... creepy no? Weird!! 0_o  Meet Altimus... My unicorn stallion... I hope you like him, he's dying to meet you! *********** Name: Altimus (Att-i-muss) Nickname: 'Moose' Gender: Male Age: 12 years Height: 16.1 hh From: The Vale Role in Herd: {Vale-born} Plainsdweller Description: Moose is a thick set male, resembling a gangly draft type though still very much a plains unicorn in stature. He is by no means unsightly in his stature, it perhaps adds to the interest. He has a distinct roman curve to his snout, which is half white, and this leaks into his soft dark beard like white paint through ink, his coat is a rich combination of various shades of Jade and Violet... making him seem to have been dipped in petrol, with accents of white to his legs. His mane is tri-toned, with darker shades of green and purple present, along with a shock of silver here and there. His eyes are caramel... deep and rich in colour. His horn is well carved, dark and slightly warped along its length. Personality: Dreamer, joker, lover, fighter. In four words one could describe him as thus. Things, however, are never this simple. Altimus is a two sided coin, like many personalities- though he has a clear divide between his good / not so good sides. Still waters run deep you might say, you'd be accurate in saying so. No one really knows the real Altimus, or what his personality really is like and perhaps people have only seen him when he is happy, or when he is irritated, thus earning him the reputation of being volatile. He is a hard book to read, whether it be the fact that there is alot of small print to wade through, or that the pages are torn and battered- he gives very little away, he can be cold, withdrawn and sullen on occassion. This being said, however, he holds much respect for the more feminine creatures, and indeed does not judge individuals swiftly- allowing them to come into themselves and show their true worth before filing them away in the appropriate 'drawer' if you will. He has a very dry sense of humor, witty and sometimes acidly sarcastic- don't be surprised if you become the target of one of his jokes, or indeed the subject matter! He is a diplomat, he is a listener and a romantic creature. Moose holds few grudges, believing them to be a waste of time and very counter-productive. He holds his friends close, and his enemies even closer you might say. Once, however, you get past the icy exterior and general disregard, he is a warm and gentle beast, though it takes a long time for him to place his trust in you. History: Not much is known of what happened to Altimus' parents, as he was brought up by his aunt in The Vale, Chartreya. Chartreya was given Altimus by her brother, Gertrand- as his mate had passed giving birth to the colt. From the very moment his father had set eyes upon him, he knew that bringing up his son would not be something he would be comfortable with due to the memories the child invoked, and thus- Moose, as he was later nicknamed, was given away. Moose grew, and years passed as they do, and Chartreya eventually was able to leave the boy she once knew behind her and get on with raising her own children. Altimus doesn't yet know what he wants from life, nor does he know his purpose... but it is his goal to find out what it is. *********** Art (c) =Failed-romance-x Character (c) =Failed-romance-x BG texture (c) *hibbary Firebringer Triology, The Vale and all associated ideas (c) Meredith Anne Pierce |
