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!!

Halo, I am Seele Studio/Angel. I guess you are supposed to say a little about your self here, but I am not very good at that. I am 18 years old with a very reasonable (in my case anyway lol) love of horses. I have never done anything particularly noteworthy and I have never even had a job O.o I love art more than anything, but I like writing as well, I just find it harder lol.

Name: Aeroth 'Air-ith' Nick Name: Oath Gender: Mare Body Type: Warmblood Breed: Danish Warmblood Age: 5 Birth Season: Winter Height: 16 HH Coat Color: Chestnut Dun Sabino Splash Appy Distinguishing Markings: Badger face with a 'hook' behind the eyes on either side, black 'eyeliner' caused by sabino, Four stockings that travel up to belly/chest, Blanket goes up the neck causing white streaks. Eye Color: Blue Genetics: Aa/DD/nSb/nSp/nLp/patn2
Appearance: Oath is a very slight mare, very lanky and slim. Her coat is a nice apricot in color with darker red legs and face. Along her spine is a spotted appaloosa blanket, the spotting leaves white streaks in her mane. Her legs are covered in four stockings, all of which travel up to the stomach and on the chest. Oath's face is 'framed' by a badger face that has two 'hooks' behind her eyes. Oath's mane is of normal length and a deep red in color, except for the white interlaced throughout, it is rather thick and tends to curl slightly at the ends. Her tail is lengthy mass of hair that starts out white and fades to the same deep red as her mane.
Personality:
flagging, fleeting
cowering, fearful
closed, guarded, secretive
dependent, to a fault
caring
affectionate
humble
self-giving
Oath is best described as a follower of the herd with a mysterious crunchy center. She will often be found following some random horse from a safe distance, but after a few days she is likely to lose interest and move on to the next shiny thing to catch her eye. Oath does not like mares, in fact she loathes them with a fiery passion, maybe it's jealousy? Oath can be touchy when it comes to... touching, some odd reason she fears it. She has a low self esteem and can break down at the slightest distaste for her company. Despite the mares fears she thinks herself brave and goes out looking for adventure at every opportunity. Oath loves change as long as she has someone by her side, if not she becomes very indecisive and unsure.
History: Aeroth was born into a large herd with four older siblings that got all the attention. Her life was full of " why can't you be more like Iadeth?" and " learn how to respect you brothers!" yet her siblings were spoiled brats, loved and adored by all, well all except her. Oath felt abandoned by her family, so she left at the mere age of one. But the World was a wonderful place in her eyes and she grew to love being alone and exploring.
One day on her travels she met a stallion, he took her under his wing and she fell in love, she couldn't imagine life without him by the time she was three. Then one day he was gone, after searching for days she found him with another mare. She was so shocked that she just left, she didn't know how to deal with what she had seen. She began to distrust others, but some part of her still wants to see the good in them.

Personality:

Salvatore is best described as broken. He believes he has seen the worst of the world in his short time and would rather crawl away into some dark hole then face the outside world again. He is terrified of everything and constantly thinking others are out to get him. He distrusts everyone and can be quite rude.
History: Salvatore's Life started with a mother didn't really care for him, she tried her best to show him love, but Tore always saw through it. He didn't know whether she had given up on the thought of happiness or if she just couldn't feel anything anymore. Either way he left her before his first birthday, he hoped that their might be someone in the world that would love him.
He was found by a seemingly kind stallion that was starting his own herd and allowed to join. Tore took it as a sign and happily agreed. He stayed with the stallion for a year and a half watching contently as the herd grew, but soon he had eyes only for a certain mare of the herd. The stallion noticed and wanted Tore gone, feeling threatened by him. Tore refused and challenged him for the herd.
Tore got his ass handed to him, he was beaten to within an inch of his life. The experience didn't really teach him anything, he was still as hot headed as ever. Another stallion found him soon after the battle and started to nurse him back to health. The two became close friends but by the time Tore turned 3 he was ready to leave. His friend would have none of that though and began forcing Tore to stay close to him.
Salvatore tried every night to get away, but each time it resulted in him getting beaten. Eventually he gave up and let his 'friend' grow complacent, and just recently he was able to escape and fled to the swamps.

Name: Usijan (Oo-sean) Nickname: Usi Gender: Mare Body Type: Hotblood Breed: Marwari cross Age: 4 years Birth Season: Spring Height: 16 HH Coat Color: Liver Chestnut Sabino Distinguishing Markings: Four knee spots, bald face with eyes and 'smile' missing. Eye Color: Black Genetics: Aa/SbSb/Ff
Usi is often viewed as unfocused and scatter-brained, and she would agree with them. She often finds it difficult to think and often has small headaches, though sometimes her headaches are unbearable. She finds it easiest to focus in wide open space, but she loves going into dense forest and tight caves.
Usijan can be very uncaring and doesn't often show emotion over anything, though thats not to say she doesn't have any emotion. Usi can be a very passionate and stubborn mare.
History:
Usijan tries not to think of her past, but she can't deny that it happened. Usi was born to a very odd and 'religious' herd. The herd believed that any foal born with a facial marking like hers was an oracle. The foals would be snatched from wherever they were born and taught in secret the ways of 'reading the future'.
Usi was never very good at this, all she saw was blurry or too scattered, but all the herds hopes rested on her shoulders. Because of that she grew distant and when they started asking if she saw anything, she would lie and make up small things like a higher tide then normal, or more frogs covering a certain area. When these lies didn't come true the began to doubt her and searched for another oracle to take her place.
Usi escaped in the night and never looked back, some small part of her hopes they all died.
