Savage (Ready)

[phoeberia]

Roleplay Type: World of Equestrian

Name: Savage {Iron Hide, will only ever introduce himself as savage.}

Sex: Male

Age: Adult

Species: Horse

Eye colour: Emerald with a hint of yellow.

Coat: Dark Grey with a few tattoos.

Mane/Tail: Reddish Brown hair with grey streaks.

Physique: Thicc and big.

Residence: The everfree forest? Any woods or open fields off the road.

Occupation: Originally was a guard, commander during a war, a blacksmith, and now just a general farm hand for hire. If he can get close enough to ask.

Cutie Mark: Iron hammer, during a bad winter storm in the mountains, savage went up alone to gather ore. This ore was needed for a very special sword commissioned by a a prince. It wasn't magical just needed to be visually appealing, the wyrm ore was rare and hard to get too. It could only be found in the belly of a crystal wyrm. Savage took off into the deep mountains and storm.

Spoiler

Savage came across a nest of wyrms hiding from the storm itself, he pushed deeper, they seemed uninterested in attacking and soon he found why. The old alpha of the nest had perished and the new queen, a very young wyrm was appointed queen. She had to pass a trwil, the blizzard was apart of it and the storm was Definetely getting worse. She promised iron a supply of the ore if he helped out. They had to travel further up the mountain, fight windigos and snow leopards. Iron himself doesn't remember what happened when they got to the top. He remembers waking at the mountains base, beaten and bruised. He had his mark but was... Empty, he couldn't understand why, and could not find the nest again. The crystal is delivered near the house monthly though. He speaks fondly of the time though.

He came back a week later with his cutie mark, and doesn't talk about the incident.

Unique Traits: Savages height for one, he can generally step over most ponies he comes across, though he's not tall enough to make it sorta awkward if he did. Also tusks and a general appetite for meat. From there he definitely follows his name, Iron hide.

 

History: Savage started his life amongst his family, constantly nomadic in the northern tundras, thick hide and skin against the bitter winds. Like many of his family he moved out of his family group and made his way into warmer climates. Happy to explore and learn about the world. From his father he knew how to gather ores from the earth, from his mother he knew how to shape them into weapons and armor. He made his home in a small community that served apart of an earls territory, with his size and natural strength he was hired into being a guard, though preferred his blacksmithing work and was simply on call.

Though disagreements and lies between two butting authorities caused the small kingdom to come unraveled in a civil war. he had to fight against many friends. His weapons were used against many old allies. He didn't take to this well and after a few years of participating, he defected and ran away.

Spoiler

This is a flat lie actually, or atleast a very vague telling of his life. Below though is very much so true though.

Though because of this war he has a deep hatred for magic users. From there he traveled very, very far to equestria where he hoped it would be peaceful to live. Unfortunately ponies art use to practical gaints so he's regularly mistaken as  a monster in the forest, and being mostly carnivore, it doesn't help. Though because of the nature being extremely tame.

Hunting is extremely easy.

 

Character Personality: Savage is a very quiet stallion, he generally has no reason to speak to anyone. Though if your a kid he will happily speak to you, he enjoys the presence of children, if anything it reminds him of simpler times. Beyond that Savage doesn't have a short temper despite his intimidating brutish looks he's very level headed and tactical. He'd rather talk to someone then to harm them but if they continue to pursue him he doesn't mind getting rid of them. He doesn't care for enclosed spaces and seem to have a phobia of them or atleast will begin to have a panic attack if bound in any manner. Though if you use magic he will attack first, he does not trust unicorns and will run them off before much words can be exchanged. This has unfortunately garnered him the title of Forest Monster.

Character Summary: Savage is a story teller, though only to the young, he travels and helps out farms, rarely goes into town. He distrusts magic users and finds most people to much of a bother to try speaking to. Though despite this he is a very laid back stallion, enjoys the open road and sleeping under the open skies. Equestria is a therapeutic visit for this old war horse.

Hello hello! Nice to meet you, Phoeberia!

 

Only a couple things about this guy we should take care of and then you can be free to play with us! First off, I'd say Savage's history here is on the short side, wouldn't you think? Try to expand a bit on this if you could. Most importantly he needs his cutie mark story.

 

Also, is there any particular reason he needs to eat meat?

[phoeberia]

Eh probably but it's a summary for the most part. Really it's length depends on if I add or use other characters, which at this point I might just stick together some rando. As for meat it's more of a health thing, herbivores will occasionally eat raw meat for weird reasons. For him he's just big enough and it's easier to dispose of stuff.

Sorry for the wait! 

Anyway, the cutie mark story is required for the applcation. If you want to roleplay in the main threads you'll need to come up with something. And if you wish to come up with more of his story by adding characters to his past that is fine but try to focus on his reactions and feelings to their contributions to his life.

[phoeberia]

Hmm added in some stuff for the cutie mark then

[Pretzelparty]

AGain sorry for the wait its been a busy weekend for me. Alright, I think Savage is in a passable state, I just think you should be wary of teh type of stories you'll want him involved in. Given the somewhat mature and extreme motif i see for him you might be best in Whitescar!
