Welcome to Defying Gravity, a semi-realistic natural horse rpg!
There are no mutations, magic, or rainbow ponies here; the horses of the Homelands must carve out a life for themselves by their wits and strength alone. We have no cannons or "site-wide plot" to speak of as we've found that there are a ton of creative people out there and when our members are left to their own devices the plots stay fresh and fun for everyone. So if you're looking for a laid back site with no so called "unique" plot you must adhere to, Defying Gravity just might be the place for you!!

Hey, all! I'm Snow, and I've been RPing for a little while now. I started on The Last Hoofprints, and kind of stagnated after it died. Started at a few places, but they either died or didn't stick as they should have. I plan to support my friend's site and Moderate the forum as best I can, and enjoy seeing my old friends and making new ones! If you ever have any questions, be it site-related or other, feel free to shoot me a PM! I can usually explain and help people in many situations, and where I'm unhelpful I search for another more qualified resource.
I have a lot of horses, and they're all very important to me. I'm usually open for plotting and such, so again, feel free to shoot me a PM or find me in the C-box. I have my moments of complete insanity, but you'll come to learn I'm just being Snow. I hope you enjoy your stay here, and learn a lot about the horses who are near and dear to my heart. ♥
Basics; Name: Kirious Age: 4 [Sunday] Species: horse Gender: Stallion Height: 15.3hh Coat Color: black (sabino) Eye Color: black Body Type: Warmblood Distinguishing Marks: Irregular blaze that extends from around the middle of his face to the jawline on the right side. Torn left ear. Alias: Kiri Birthday: Autumn Genetics: Ee/aa/Sbsb
Personality;; Kirious is an accident-prone, good-natured, well-rounded and high-spirited horse. His mother was a good influence on him when he was younger, though her sarcasm was strong; that wasn't passed on, not entirely. Whimsical and oblivious at times, Kirious is a little ball of energy, though he does have his serious moments where he shows that he can be a horse of power and solemnity. Kiri always welcomes new friends, and feels strongly about his emotions, and the honor of his loved ones. One to keep vows till the death, the colt also is heavily and unshakably dedicated if the reason is strong enough; anything to do with a loved one, and one would find he will never stop, lest his life be claimed from trying.
Residence: Islands Rank: Wanderer Likes: butterflies, snails, leaves, winds, birds, warm days, adventure Dislikes: Arrogance, mud, being called a klutz, thorns General Sleep Pattern: Normal
History;; Upon his birth, his mother had watched him some before naming the colt, her interest piqued by his strange face marking; half of his face was black, half was white. When the colt got to his feet, he could not seem to stay there: always tripping, stumbling, running into things; even as a colt, this was so, and still is. So, his mother named him Kirious, which is closely linked to Kirous, which means "Cautious" in (need to find it later). Irony, right? His mother loved Irony as well. His father was a rogue stallion whom his mother fell in love for, and he was their firstborn. After being born, his father was murdered by two rogue stallions who were passing by. To save her son's innocence, his mother told the young colt that he had left to guard the herd back at home, and that they needed to continue moving so that they could meet him. Excited, the colt urged his mother onward, oblivious to the fact that his mother was growing sickly. While she kept her brave and healthy facade, soon illness claimed her life. Fortunately, young Kiri was not around for this, having gone to explore while she rested. When he went to return to her, he had encountered a jackal, who chased the colt far from his family, far from his home. Having outrun the jackal, Kirious continued running, blinded with fear and the desire to rid himself of the danger. When he arrived in the Western area of the Homeland, Kirious collapsed from exhaustion and found a place to rest for a few days. By the time the colt had regained his health, he knew that both his mother and father were both gone, and that he would not know how to find them.
