When 18 first arrived... Here
Physical Update: 'Dice' is looking spiffy now that he's been cleaned up a little. The dreads that couldn't be saved have been cut and time will tell what hairstyle will suit him best. His feet are on their way to full recovery, and after being treated for worms and ulcers his general mood has improved. His coat has gotten a healthy shine and his eyes are as bright as ever! We have a very good feeling about this boy!
Info
ID Nr. 18
Name: We are calling him '18' for now.
Nickname: Dice
Gender: Gelding
Age: 5 years
Height: 14.2 hh
Colour: Flaxen Red Roan with Corn Spots and Bird-Catcher Spots
Genotype: ee/Aa/Rr/ff
Eyes: Green-Brown
One Trait or Quirk: Sweet young boy with a lot of Eventing potential, if he can get over his fear of puddles.
Personality: "18 has shown us sooooo many sides of himself, that we've jokingly taken ter calling him 'Dice'. Ye know? Roll the dice, see what ya get? He started out as a nervous wreck, staying as far from us as possible, thinking, Ah bet, that us two-legged critters were most certainly spawned of Evil. He mock-charged the fence a fair few times when we came too close. Then after bein' left alone ter cool, letting the adrenaline settle, we saw a very curious boy, alert an attentive with a bright mind.
With a lot of patience and hard work, he's come ter trust the staff and two legged in general, and has even accepted the Vargs, though he'd still prefer that they stay at a respectable distance. He was so aggressive toward the other stallions that we had to snip 'im, or the poor guy would have been very lonely. He's since become best mates with a handful of our mares.
Ah guess in short ye can say he's bright, eager ter work with ya and adjusting vereh well ter this pampered, none-wild lifestyle. But Ah still cannae fer that love of me get him ter understand that puddles won't swallow him. " - Will
Previously: "So far he's proven ter be a wee bit skittish and not too happy with his change of habbitat. However, it's only been one day. We're giving the guy a chance to calm down and relax, hoping that Annabelle will help him feel a little more at home. " -Will
"Those dreads are coming off! And we need a farrier to have a look at those chipped hooves. And he stinks! Bleergh! " -Thyrian
Bloodlines: Starter, born wild and free!

OH MAH GAHD! I think I'm in love. The dreadlocks in his hair are a great touch, and I love the comments in the AC section -- especially Thyrian's xD Poor 18 moves half way across the world to be called stinky and be under appreciated by his potential buddies! -huggles- ANYway. Awesome, awesome, awesome!

Thyrian will warm up to '18' eventually, but he far from as enthusiastic as Will, who is the drive force behind this project.
Really glad his ref is getting such warm comments from everyone^^ He's already wormed his way deeeeep into my heart. LOVE this boy :3

Ooh, this is my favourite of the Kaimanawa refs I've seen so far! It's so realistic how he doesn't look perfectly groomed yet. I think the name 18 actually suits him pretty well.

I got the inspiration after following the links LiddleCherry provided. I was thinking 'yeah! He wouldn't look perfect! He'd be a little worn around the edges! ' And then the idea of the evolving character sheet. 18 does fit him more and more. He might be given a more 'showy' name, and be called 18 around the farm.
