Description
Who goes there?Name Viranchi (Vyre-ahn-chee)
Gender Stallion
Build A thick, arched neck is his key trait. He's relatively stocky but thin-boned, very graceful; andalusian, percheron, certain arabians, and similar breeds work best when stock hunting but aren't compulsoryΒ
Height 15.3 hh
Coloring Blood red (unrealistic)
Markings White fire "splash" marking that can cover his legs, chest, stomach, hindquarters, and neck, depending on artist interpretation. The style of fire is up to the artist. It can be highly defined, stylized, realistic, etc. See below images for various styles previous artists have done.
Eyes Blood red with white pupils. A lot of people miss the white pupils part, so try to remember he does not have black pupils
Hooves White
Mane & Tail Black with white tips, nothing special about the length or style, usually depicted sort of thick and wavy but open to variations
Unique Traits Instead of blood, he has liquid fire in his veins, leading to an aura of heat and light around him. This can be any fire-like color (yellow, orange, red) or simply white. The veins could be outlined on his body or not. The glow could be nearly blinding or very dull. It is up to the artist
Personality Egotistical, god complex, masochistic and sadistic, show-off, passionate, slightly insane, regal, warrior, magical, violent, kingly, impulsive, irrational, selfish
Associations Fire, lava, explosions, the sun, carnage, death, herds, royalty, red, yellow, orange, desert... Feel free to contrast with unexpected associations--storms, winter, caves, forests, blue skies, lakes, etc.
Home His home is a very thick fantasy jungle, which has an "Alice in Wonderland" feel to it. Huge flowers, giant mushrooms, trees that change colors, random mythical creatures, skies that have huge galaxies visible and two moons/suns and can be both day and night and other random changes, vines and plantlife that move, orbs of floating light... the works. You do not have to feature him in this setting, he can be placed in any non-human background, but if you want to depict him in his homeland, this is what it looks like.
This horse is largely open to interpretation. Please portray him however you are inspired to. His design is not strict. Further images can be found here .
I offer commissions!
Please see my profile on the righthand side for information.

No way - You're Viranchi? I've literally just started on this site and was admiring your gallery (stunning BTW) when I recognized this horse! I used to roleplay on Metaphysical years and years ago - remember writing a thread or two with him inΒ Β

Oh how COOL! I almost never run into Meta members anymore! I've kept contact with Songbirdy, Dovasary, Tigress, and Camy, no one else seems online anymore. What an awesome blast from the past. I am indeed viranchi's roleplayer, I was known as "Elf" or perhaps you knew me by my real name "Brady." This is just so cool, who did you play? What was your display name? I'd love to catch up, here or in notes or on discord, whatever you'd like

Oh that's right,of course, now you've said that Brady does ring a bell - you were the administrator correct? I doubt you will remember me as I was a brand new roleplayer at the time, but you were very helpful in helping me get started and settle in Β I played Kaan and I think my display name was impi? It was so long ago now I can't be sure! I loved that site though, and I kept up the roleplaying for a few years after that you'll be pleased to hear. Haven't done it in ages but seeing peoples character manips on here made me wanted to get involved with the art side at least again, hence the new accountΒ Β Β

Ruanly In reply to pixelwulf [2017-06-01 10:44:34 +0000 UTC]
Correct, that was me! Haha now I'm all flattered that you remember me. And I am so happy and honored to hear how much you liked Meta, and that you enjoyed your interactions with me! Ahh this just made for the best week.Β
I just took several minutes to look through the old bios and accounts and couldn't find mention of either, but if you titled the thread something other than Kaan's name, then I probably missed it, sadly. But both the name Kaan and Impi are actually very familiar feeling, which is pretty surprising because I have such bad memory that I even forgot some of the staff's names! So you must've made an impression! Regardless, I'm ecstatic to reconnect. And I am very happy to hear you continued roleplaying and that you've wandered back into at least the art side nowadays.
No clue if you have any interest in roleplaying anymore, but I'll toss it along just in case--I have been working on a new RPG for the past 4 years, it is human and/or horse (as in you can play both or you could play one and completely avoid/ignore the other species). Medieval-y type of era, a different world than Earth entirely, very very high fantasy. If you have any interest or you're just nosy like me, some public info is available at its dA group here: Alcryst-RPG Otherwise there's a cbox where anyone can chat about anything:Β my.cbox.ws/alcryst And we have a group discord chat that is more active and has more people:Β discord.gg/EkNTnq5
My personal discord is Ruanly#7946 if you ever wanna shoot me something there!Β
Okay I'll stop bouncing around in your face now hahaha

Yeah it was a great site and it got me started on role playing which opened up a whole new creative world for me!
Haha that's good to hear, I wasn't the most active because I was so new but I'm sure I've got a few old threads saved somewhere - I've got both Viranchi and Dovesary listed as Kaans acquaintances at least, which is something id forgotten all about until I saw this pic!
Ooh now that does sound very intriguing, I'm most definitely going to check that out! I just had a quick watch of the promo trailer - looks amazing and I love the concept. Looks very in depth which I like - I'll keep on eye on it as it's exactly the sort of thing I'd like to try

It is a fantastic creative outlet, isn't it?!
Dovasary is mudfur123 on here if you ever wanna creep on her! She's also gonna be on Alcryst. ^^ Do you still have info about Kaan? I'd love to read up on him or just see his pics and see if I remember anything! Plus I may or may not be a character-stalker.Β
Sweeeeeet, I'm so glad you're interested. Thank you for the compliments! So much!

It really is - hoping to get back into it over summer when I have more time
Oh awesome I will have a stalk - If i remember correctly she had some amazing manips so I will definitely do that! I might well do - I will have a hunt around my old hard drive and see what I can find, would love to dust him off and make some art for him. Hes been very neglected - I don't think i've roleplayed him anywhere but Meta so he needs an update for sure!
No problem at all, I'll join the group so I can keep updated on everything

I love his colours and design. And he seems to be nasty. Well okay, may he have a god complex, he looks glorious just like a god.

Ruanly In reply to sevese [2017-01-08 02:31:47 +0000 UTC]
yeah he's definitely a nasty one, he can be really fun to play but I often have to apologize for his behavior to other roleplayers and that can get rough! xD Thank you so very much!

sevese In reply to Ruanly [2017-01-08 15:23:26 +0000 UTC]
If all characters in a play are nice characters, nothing will happen to get the people hooked to the story. So yeah for the nasty.

Ahh I love characters that don't have strict designs; it's fun to imagine different versions of what they might look like. I love the mane < 3

Ruanly In reply to anatiidae [2016-10-12 21:40:20 +0000 UTC]
I agree! It's my favorite to see how people do his flames. It's really cool when someone figures out a brand-new way to do them after like 60 images, too. xD Thank you so very much, my friend!

Haha no problem! < 3 I love that picture of him on your profile surrounded by the fire.

Thank you! That was the only piece I've managed to do of Viranchi in, like.. 3 years. I've been itching to do a full manip of him but I haven't had actual muse for it, surprisingly. The second I do, though... >D

anatiidae In reply to Ruanly [2016-10-12 21:49:31 +0000 UTC]
HAHA YES that'd be amazing! I feel bad for the poor person who tries to ride him and gets their trousers burned off XD

Hahahaha me too! It'd be hilarious. Though he's wild right now, so all he does it burn other horses xDΒ

just making sure, did you mean to submit this to my art fest contest journal by chance? Or did I commission you at some point, which is entirely possible with my memory? Lol

Adarhi In reply to Ruanly [2016-04-25 17:19:15 +0000 UTC]
I saw your journal and I was going to do it but I wasn't really inspired at the time, so I faved it in case I could come back to it at some point. And then you answered my poll asking me to do artwork for him c: so I said I would

Ruanly In reply to Adarhi [2016-04-25 17:22:40 +0000 UTC]
Ohkey! Thank you for catching me up. If you'd like, you can throw it into the art fest event so you get proper entry to it, I think it qualifies. Β
