Breed: Ahkal-teke x marawari x trakhener x thoroughbred
Age: 18 at death
Personality: Wardruna was raised on strong family values. He is a proud beast, he knows what he is about, he knows his worth but he also knows that his family is the foundation of that. He understands the values of working as a group yet he prefers to be alone when possible. He is quick witted, sharp and intelligent, with a stoic, calming presence. Wardruna is adventurous by nature, he loves the thrill of new realms and new encounters. Yet he is still reseved in his mannerisms, he will rarely speak unless spoken to or unless the conversation is worth having. Wardruna is wise, he is capable and he understands the workings of the world and the equines in it. that is not to say, that despite all his virtues, he does not have a short temper, he does not suffer the foolish well and he will tell you if you are heading down that path in no uncertain terms.
History: History: Wardruna was born into a great herd, his father had started from humble beginnings but in time had risen up, over throwing the then lead stallion, an unfair and unjust king. His father had taken the throne and proven to be a good king, his mother ruling beside him throughout. Wardruna admired both his mother and father, their love was unmatched and he was thankful to be a part of it. It was only when his father had decided on an expediton to new, far off realms did Wardruna's life begin to change. He was left with his dam to care for their lands and the herd that resided within, neither him nor his mother had expected the change that was in the pipeline. His father returned, a similar version of the equine that had initially left yet something was different.
Six months later, the change was revealed in the shape of a palomino vixen, heavily pregnant with his father's child. Wardruna's mother was devastated, yet still she remained alongside him. Wardruna merely observed, his young mind was wise beyond it's years yet even he could not fathom the decision his father had made. His mother couldn't take it much longer, leaving soon after to lands unknown without him and leaving him to deal with the golden witch and his deluded father. Time passed as it always had done, Wardruna grew in strength and height, his sense of adventure grew and it wasn't long before he left the harem, seeking out new lands within a band of stallions, much like himself. He soon met a young mare, the two fell in love instantly, she bore him a filly and the three settled into a comfortable way of life. Until the wolves attacked. They lost the filly and the mare lost her face. Wardruna loved her nonetheless, sticking by her until one morning, she too was gone. He searched to the ends of the earth for her, but to no avail.
Years passed and he settled down with another, the herd grew and she bore him several sons. He was a formidable warrior, defending his herd from all those who dared to try and usurp him. The harem grew, he was a fair and just leader, regularly moving the band on to find pastures new when the seasons became harsh and food was scarce. It was during one particular winter, however, in his twilight years, when his queen was to weak to make the journey twice, did he make a decision to seek out a new land, if only for the colder nights. He left her with the capable warriors of his band and the watchful eye of his brood, knowing only to well her next journey would be her last. Wardruna left, his elder years did not give him much hinderence, if anything, he felt as young and as healthy as he did all those years ago. Yet even he could not defeat the family of bears that confronted him a few days into his venture. They took ribbons from him, his body shredded and bones shattered under their attack. Wardruna fought back as best he could, fleeing as quickly as his battered body would let him, but he was not quick enough. As they sunk their teeth into him, he closed his eyes, thinking only of his family and his queen.
