Breed: Appaloosa x Andalusian x Arabian Name: Lateralus Age: 17 Personality: Lateralus is a calm, pleasant fellow. He is incredibly generous and his compassion is a rare quality seen nowadays. He is always eager and willing to help, will set aside all previous engagements to help those in need. The loyalty that he possesses is rooted deep in his blood, and he would do anything to protect his family and his friends. Lateralus is first and foremost a peacemaker, and would much rather solve conflicts without violence. That isn't to say that he would not lift a finger to defend himself or others, however, he is as fierce a fighter as any experienced stallion, and is fearless in the face of adversity. One of his few flaws is his lowered capacity for trust after his record of being betrayed, and he has grown more distant over the years than he used to be. His deepest hatred is reserved for those who waste their lives and refuse to live. For him, murder is not the most punishable crime - it is suicide, for suicide is selfish to him, after seeing his brother kill himself even if he had so much else to live for. This isn't to say Lateralus has not experienced his share of hardships - there is unlikely to be anything in the world that he has not seen or dealt with before. Through all of his hardships he has maintained a level head and refuses to let himself sink to those who call himselves his enemies. He is a sociable stallion, willing to talk to anyone regardless of relations, ties, or appearances. He is intelligent and quick-witted, though he has been described as naive in the past. He is nearly abhorrent of being stereotyped and can become easily offended if someone attempts to pin one on him. Lateralus is stubborn and determined in life, and is an eternal optimist - continually fighting an uphill battle with a smile on his face and a will of steel.
History: (super long, yes) Lateralus is the fifth child born to Winter Solstice and Blue Ice. He was born during one of the most peaceful times in Dark Woods, when there was limited drama and family problems and a whole lot of foals being born. He hung a lot around his older half sister, Anesthesia and gained his dark, abusive attitude from her. He met a filly in the foal lands dubbed Faded Romance. He bullied her ceaselessly for being a Light and would have forced her home if it hadn't been for her parents saving her. He eventually claimed a mare named Bwgan at the age of two and they had a twisted affair that developed into love. He also claimed a Neutral mare named Klesa that he enslaved, determined to turn her into a Dark. Anesthesia assisted him in his task. It wasn't long before he was expecting a child with Bwgan and she gave birth to their first son, Recoil. Lateralus adored his son and it matured him greatly when he became a father. However, Bwgan suddenly disappeared for a couple of months, leaving Lateralus to have his sister, Forsythia nurse Recoil. Months later, Bwgan returned and became pregnant again. A stallion came upon the lands then, Cyclone and he told Lateralus of how his mother had abandoned him to die in his father's lands. Bwgan spat back at him and Lateralus realized how easily she could have abandoned Recoil. Bwgan gave birth to Thunderhead during the fight. Lateralus decided to banish Bwgan and she left, taking Thunderhead with her.
Afterward, Lateralus let Klesa go free and went on a rampage, fighting random horses in Kunipar Cliff and fathering a child by an unnamed mare that he wouldn't know about until much later. Lateralus witnessed the whole ordeal Takai Reikon went through when his mate was stolen by Sykota and Forsythia's ordeal with Slipknot. He met a mare named Emerald Nightmare and claimed her. She never showed up in Dark Woods, however. He then found out that his mother was pregnant again and then Wild Equines moved to a new location. He gained two new siblings, Scarlet Ice and Winter Avenger.
Takai Reikon decided to step down from King and went to Second in Command, which elected Lateralus to the King position. He claimed a vixen named Kyla and they bred in Silent Forest. However, she never showed up with the foal and he went to search for her. He had no luck finding her and led the herd normally, even as Nachikuitis disappeared and he had to run the herd on his own. Viola came to inform him of Takai's suicide and he called a herd meeting to mourn over his death. Not soon afterward, Nachikuitis's triplet children, Jaezonte, Disturbed Solstice and Jazmin came to Dark Woods. It wasn't long before Jaezonte challenged Lateralus for the crown, bringing many allies with him and several of his children. Lateralus welcomed the challenge, but it was dropped before the battle could be fought.
His sister Scarlet Ice and her friend Black Tide return to murder Nikita. He does not protest and lets them go. Satanico Tortura then challenged for Dark Woods and he fought, but lost the battle. The lands were renamed Carnevale Letale and he moved his herd under his friend Darla, who led Paradise Lost. Lateralus meets Absolem in Kunipar Cliff and is astonished to know that he is his son. However, Absolem declines the request to stay in Dark Woods. Lateralus adopted a colt named Spike and made him his adopted son. He then claimed Obscenity and grew close to her. They had a child together named Reth and later a second daughter named Tessen, but tragically, Obscenity died in the birth of her second daughter. Lateralus sent Spike to find a nursing mare for Tessen and he found Andromeda, a vixen that was a part of Radio Active's herd. She agreed to raise Tessen. Lateralus met a vixen named Hate that desired a foal and he provided her with one, a daughter named Jail Bird.
Caution, Andromeda's son, comes into Dark Woods telling Lateralus that his mother is going crazy after Radio Active's second disappearance. He coaxes Andromeda out of her bad mood and she gives birth to Formaldehyde. She agrees to stay in Dark Woods with her children for a while. Lateralus meets a vixen named Narcissa in Kunipar Cliff and helps her after she falls and injures her leg. She tells him she is searching for a home and he offers her to stay in Dark Woods. She stays for a while before being confronted by Predator and leaves, promising to remain an ally. Amun-Ra, a vixen that was a part of Jaezonte's harem comes to Dark Woods to find her sister Andromeda. She dies giving birth to Raksha and Lateralus agrees to raise the filly.
Horst Cabal comes to Dark Woods telling Lateralus about supplying a whorehouse. When Lateralus declines to take part of the deal, Horst tells him that he will face frequent battles until he agrees. Andromeda requests for a foal and her and Lateralus have a daughter named Astronomy. Another vixen by the name of Dementia comes to Dark Woods and he falls in love with her. After giving birth to Astronomy, Andromeda tells Lateralus that she loves him. Lateralus elects Andromeda his Beta Mare and Dementia his Queen. Lateralus meets Bwgan again in Kunipar Cliff with her daughter, Bloody Arson. He takes her daughter away from her and raises it in Dark Woods. Kyla also returns to Dark Woods and explains that she was taken away and that their child is dead. Lateralus is angry at her for accusing him of not looking hard enough and they get into an argument. However, a mudslide disrupts them after Lateralus gets caught in it. Kyla helps him and they become friends again.
Seirra comes to Dark Woods again, looking for Takai Reikon. Lateralus informs her that Takai killed himself. She asks for refuge in Dark Woods and he lets her stay. Lateralus meets Klesa again in the Unclaimed Hearts. Lucifer takes again Dementia when she is pregnant and Lateralus goes to rescue her from Carnevale Letale. He witnesses Lucifer killing Jaezonte. A vixen named Seventh Hells Ambience tells Lateralus that she will help smuggle her out and she does. Lateralus is grateful and allows her to live in Dark Woods. Dementia gives birth to twins, Andriana and Pyro. Willow Cabal and Carousel show up in Dark Woods and he makes Willow a member and Carousel the General. Ollivander Cabal challenges Lateralus for declining the whorehouse, but he leaves and Lateralus wins it by default. He is then stolen by Grimmoire. Spike fights for him, but loses and Lateralus goes to Carnevale Letale for a couple of months before returning. Seirra returns to Dark Woods in a sickly condition, telling Lateralus that her daughter Blodwen was taken as a slave by Castle/Camouflage. He agrees to rescue her.
Thunderhead comes to Dark Woods, intent on challenging his father. Lateralus agrees to the challenge, but it is dropped and Thunderhead is put under quarantine before becoming a member of Dark Woods. Lateralus successfully steals Jayden, Blodwen's son by Castle from his father. Dementia and Pyro disappear. Lateralus notices Andromeda is sick and tries to help her, but she refuses. They look for Oriax and find Andriana about to feed him to the wolves. They stop her just in time and Lateralus and her fight and he nearly kills her before banishing her and telling her to get the fuck out. Caution then comes to Dark Woods telling Lateralus that Andromeda was raped. Lateralus is furious and after the birth of Beta Decay, sends Carousel to the Helkaer lands to beat up one of their members to send them a message. Dementia then returns to Dark Woods with Pyro and confronts Lateralus and Andromeda. The two mares almost have a fight, but Lateralus stops them and they get into a heated argument. Lateralus tells Dementia to leave and she does. Kyla then returns to Dark Woods and they talk about her feelings for Incognito.
However, it seems that Kyla was more emotionally compromised than she had first displayed, because she challenges Andromeda soon after her chat with Lateralus for her position of Queen. Andromeda loses and is forced to leave for two weeks while pregnant with twins. Kyla never shows up afterward and Andromeda returns and has Schism and Sthenelus. Willow Cabal returns to Dark Woods and the two of them contemplate what could have happened to the mare during her year and a half disappearance. Lateralus then attends the Dark Herd Leader meeting hosted by Incognito with Andromeda.
He is then met by a stallion named Sand Man who requests for a subland. Lateralus grants him that. He is then confronted by his son, Thunderhead once more and the two get into a heated argument over trust and the lies that were left in the wake of his mother, Bwgan. Lateralus is then visited by Hail Romance and her son, Coal and the allows them into the herd. A newcomer by the name of Vladimir comes to Dark Woods and they give him a trial run. Andromeda calls a herd meeting for Dark Woods and they decide to step down and give Schism and Sthenelus the crown. Bwgan, the daughter of Lateralus's first mate came to Dark Woods intent on confronting Lateralus. However, she is sent on her way by Andromeda long before a true confrontation can happen. After that, Lateralus learns of the sudden destruction of Negrizaria and offers to shelter two members of it, Zela and her son, Zeus. He tentatively asks Zela what happens and she explains.
Tragedy strikes when Estelle escorts him to Andromeda and Sthenelus's lifeless bodies after they were savaged by wolves. Lateralus spirals into despair and barely eats, drinks or sleeps in the weeks after his mate and son's passing. Kyla comes back to Dark Woods to 'mend fences' and he tells her what happened. Lateralus then discovers that Kyla has gone to Romeo's side, his grandson Ulquiorra has gone to Romeo's side and that Estelle had been tricked and impregnated by Romeo. He is furious. What makes it worse is that he finds out that his son, Schism had gone out and done his own revenge by raping Kyla and getting her pregnant. Lateralus is enraged beyond belief and announces a herd meeting. He strips Schism of his position and exiles him, taking over Dark Woods once again. He then meets with Macy, who was his son Thunderhead's mate. She tells him of Thunderhead's death and Lateralus offers to help her raise their children and she accepts. However, a couple of weeks later, Thunderhead himself shows up in Lateralus's lands. Lateralus is once more enraged at the audacity of his son to fake his own suicide to get out of raising his children and tells him that if he decides to stay, he must stand up for himself, or he will get kicked out. Zela steals Romeo from the Helkaer lands and Lateralus watches in amusement as her ploy to trick Romeo into thinking his Betas were out to get him by letting him get stolen unfolds.
Lateralus's daughter Reth, her mate Spike and their daughter Lashka then return to Dark Woods and Lateralus allows the two of them to take charge, as he's getting too old to run the herd properly, though he remains as beta stallion. He attends the herd meeting that Spike calls and finds out his daughter, Reth, is pregnant once more. He meets Skye in the Free lands and befriends her. He also meets Caiomhe, the mother of Macy, Thunderhead's mate. He also meets Hazelnoot, his granddaughter through Thunderhead. He spends a lot of time in Dark Woods contemplating the future of his herd and his own death. A couple of months afterward, he hears Reth's screams as she is attacked by wolves while trying to give birth to her twins, Vojorn and Ziegen. He and Spike fight off the wolves, but not before Lateralus sustains fatal injuries and passes away from bloodloss. Cause of death: Bloodloss from injuries from wolf attack.
