past lives !
hi all! i'm currently on the hunt to get some others involved in a plot idea i had for my character, adora, who has recently come to WE in search of purpose. in doing so, she left her homeland at war over her escape, and i was hoping others might be interested in picking up characters from her herd ( both friend and foe ). please click to view her full profile that includes a brief overview of her history.
a deeper explorative into her life with a steadier timeline of things; as it goes in her application, she was born to two high ranking herd members on an island not far from WE. the herd dynamics were heavily misogynistic and run by religious views of olde. as a babe, adora spent much of her time sneaking off to spar with the other colts instead of learning the ways of royal women with her fellow fillies. this caused tension between her parents, and often got the boys in trouble for feeding into such nonsense.
after being forbidden to continue her training, she started to find better ways to sneak off and hide what she was doing. unfortunately, adora and her friends were caught by her father, and she was apprehended and disciplined for it. she pleaded with her mother to talk some sense and reason with her sire, or at the very least allow her freedom of her own, at first to no avail. but her mother was on her side, and made many attempts to rectify the situation. after some time, her mother began helping her sneak off. to appease her father, she began attending the ladies court.
things in the herd were much darker than they appeared to the outside world. before turning two, adora was told that her future had been sold off to the kings son. the news was brought to her mother, who was once again pleading for some control over her own daughters life, only to be shot down by her mate and the other royals. as the news of the betrothal broke, adora's mother continued aiding her daughters training in secret, finding new and better ways to work around the tumultuous schedule their herd kept.
preparing to be a princess came with its challenges. more was expected of adora in the sense that her time for other things was cut far too short. the herd rankings were preparing to change as their king fell ill, leaving the very real possibility that their world would be thrust into chaos sooner than expected. for as barbaric as things were with the current king, everyone knew his children were far worse than he was. unbeknownst to them, a rat had given their plan up, and on a beautiful summers day adora's mother was requested to the presence of the king and his council. unsuspecting, and unprepared, she was accused of treason.
a great battle within the herd ensued. beyond the young soldiers who had been planning to get adora out, a second rebellion had been brewing from other tired and worn members against the atrocities committed by the court royals.
two of her closest friends escorted her from the fighting. adora doesn't know much of what truly happened that day; partly because of the trauma block, and partly because she didn't stick around long to find out and has made no attempts to find out for herself. she was made aware in passing that many died that day and in the days following, including her mother.
specific characters i'd like to see;
- ( 0 / 1 ) the second born son of their king, the one adora was set to be betrothed to.
- ( 1 / 3 ) the three young soldiers who made it off the island with their lives, who are specifically searching for adora to find out if she made it.
- ( 0 / 1 ) her father, now a sullen widower. i have an idea that the battle will have changed his view on how life was in their homeland; he is on the younger side than you'd expected, probably 6-8 years old.
* he is a purebred american paint horse.
* 15.3-16.0 HH.
- ( 0 / 3 ) three guards that escaped the island and are on a warpath to find adora and return her to the ruins of their home to die for her sins.
- ( 0 / 3 ) these are three ladies who were in her mothers court who escaped, potentially with injuries, and don't necessarily know that adora is still alive.
* ages can range from 6-15.
please do not comment on this post, but instead message me here on WE or ping/PM me on discord to discuss! i will be using this thread to post written character designs for these characters as baselines or ideas, but almost everything is up to you if you want it to be!
