Description I was flicking through my files and realised Cloud didn't have a decent reference, the other one was really rather awful. Also note, the design on her back leg has changed a bit!!! This way worked a bit better than the old one.

Name: Cloud

Breed: Horse x Unicorn (has the build of an Andalusian).

Gender: Mare

Age: 12yrs and has extended lifespan due to unicorn blood.

Height: 15.2hh

Colouring: Lavender body with white swirled markings on shoulders and haunches, and a white mask. Long, dark grey mane, paler hooves and deep, navy eyes.

Family: Adoptive daughter, Caitlin. Younger half-sisters Etoile and Hellcat.

Personality: Quiet and withdrawn, Cloud is very shy and nervous when meeting strangers. When she does open up she is very sweet, caring and gentle. As it is she doesn't make friends easily, having never really had the chance to develop the skill growing up. Cloud also doesn't have much self-confidence, having been bullied as a foal. She is very maternal and would like to have foals of her own one day, if she ever found a stallion who could look past her mixed-heritage and love her for herself. All she really wants in life is to be loved and accepted. Since adopting Caitlin, her confidence is growing and motherhood is really suiting her.

History: Cloud was the result of her unicorn mother's forbidden affair with a horse stallion, and spent her entire childhood shunned and bulled by the rest of her herd for being different and not being a full-blooded unicorn. She never knew her father, as he was killed before she was born. Her only friend was her half-sister Etoile. When they were grown up, she and Etoile left their herd and homeland for pastures new. They stayed together until Etoile met Trevalyn, when Cloud went her own way. She discovered the newborn Caitlin after a winter storm, and immediately took her under her wing. The two have stayed together ever since, and Cloud stand's as Caitin's mother figure, something she revels in.

Aww thank you! Yes, her markings are the same on each side. Poor thing, she doesn't get nearly the amount of attention she deserves.

Yeah I should really draw her more often, she is my oldest active character, although she looks rather different now than she did originally
