Callum

Raise your hand if you're sick on your birthday! *raises hand*

My birthday's actually tomorrow, but... I'll still be sick. Bah.

Thus, more illness-induced ponies. How I love painting black horses.



Bio
Name: Callum (Celtic name meaning "Dove")
Gender: Stallion
Height: 16.2hh
Color: Black
Eyes: Brown
Markings: Stripe, FL and BL socks, BR pastern
Build: Well balanced, Callum has a nice chest, thick neck, and powerful hindquarters. He has prominent eyebrow ridge bones like his grandsire. His legs--the front ones especially--are slightly crooked and bent but not exceedingly so.
Breed: Thoroughbred
Bloodlines: Devil's Reign x Andraste
Discipline: Flat racing
Genes: EE/aa
Temperament: In a fit of irony, the Powers That Be gave Callum the exact opposite temperment as his parents. Timid to the point of cowardly, he preferred to hide under (not behind, under) his dam most hours out of the day during his foalhood. Introducing him to new things results in panic attacks and hyperventilation, and the first time we ever put him in a halter found us dealing with the equine version of a fainting goat. While isolation from the other foals and broodmares has not yet been needed, it may very well be if something doesn't change soon.
Stable: Black Creek Crossing Stables
Breeding Restrictions: May only be bred to realistic horses of realistic breed and color.
Stud Status: AVAILABLE


Foals
Diablita out of Soul On Fire, owned by *azaza525
