koda was born a small foal, to corporal and cora in the midst of a harsh, freezing winter. it was feared by all that the undersized colt would surely freeze to death in the worst winter the herd had seen in years. he grew slow, and remained scrawny for most of his foalhood. but he loved to play in the snow.

at one and a half years, he became quite fond of a young mare from another herd. it was a brief but powerful affair that left koda reeling. the mare stole his heart from beneath him, choosing to end their meetings in favor of a thick built, rich brown stallion. koda has trusted no mare - or stag - since, though he longs for lands and a family to call his own.

one year later, to the day, he left his home in the peaceful valleys. his entire life, his mother filled his head with the stories of these lands. she never expected him to tuck tail and head for the place.
---------
on his travels to the lands he wanted to inhabit, he met a beautiful mare, and quite suddenly, his heart was gone to her. he didn't expect to love another ever again, so it was very painful when they parted ways. he mourned the loss of his girl, and vowed to never again love another. but when they were reunited - by nothing more than destiny - he was ecstatic.

now, he has accomplished much of his life goals. with two girls by his side, he owns his own land, and plans have been made to start a family.

fox had achieved the greatest honor a horse could receive at a young age. the herd she ran with, she led them. she was fiercely loyal to the band stallion, and was proud to b his lead mare. for two years, she led his other mares to the best grazing spots, the coolest watering holes, and kept everyone together while he defended them from danger. during this period, she realized she was carrying her first - and only - foal by her trusted stallion.

a mere two weeks after she birthed the foal, there was an uprising while the stag fought off a competitor. the other mares of the band apparently did not agree with her being in the position she was in, and chased her and her babe from the safety of the band. she received numerous cuts and scrapes protecting the babe from the kicks and bites of the other mares, but in the end, it was futile. the filly died in their travels, less than a week before fox arrived in the lands of galloping free. she was forced to leave her body for the scavengers, because, what else could she do?

before jahnya ventured to the wild lands of galloping free, she was a domestic horse, living on a hundred acres of fenced, rolling hills. that was the only life she knew. through some careless act, a gate was left open, and jahnya wandered through. she found herself on the wild side, and no way to find her path home. she has been struggling to survive for the past couple months, trying to figure out how to survive in a world without scheduled meals, warm stalls, and soft hands.

hyde was born to a pair of abusive, dark parents. he never knew their true names. they were just "sir" and "ma'am" the entire time he knew them. they trained him to do everything he knows, including the humiliation and destruction of the lives of every mare he was to come across. at two years, they removed him from the herd, and he fought for the control of a new herd. of course, being young and quite inexperienced, he lost his first several battles.

the day he obtained his own group, however, was a horrible one for them. he still remembers the day when he gained six mares in one fell swoop. stormy, dark, windy. the perfect day for him to come into his own. but the mares didn't last long. within a year, he had killed them or lost them. taking the cue, he set out on his own, raping mares and destroying lives wherever he went. finally, many years later, he came to the lands. before his feet had marked the territory, he had plans forming of everything he planned to do before moving on from this land to another.

zaria was born to two loving parents. they raised her well, and she had many friends within the herd. everyone loved her. it was great.

they had all seen the giant, metal, flying things in the distance. once her daddy started hearing the whopping sound of the flying thing, he would send them all running for the hills. it never bothered them. until one day, it was their family it was after. zaria was three years old at the time. somehow, she detached herself from the herd in her blind panic, and fled the loud sounds. it didn't pursue her, so she ran until she couldn't breath, her mouth was foaming, and tiny droplets of blood dripped from her nose.

she was lost, and completely alone.
