As previously stated, my two old stallies are in need of herds. The Maison-Ereptum, two herds bonded together and lead by half-brothers, is located in modern day Tenmile Range, Colorado. Mares, stallions, bachelors, and foals are all needed, but first, some insight into these herds' histories...

The Maison herd(name means “Home” in Latin), is a strong herd with an unfortunate past. Several lead stallions, mares, bachelor stallions, and even foals have come and gone, leaving those who had grown up in the herd searching for a firm, strong in character leader who will hold the herd together.

~ Sage leads this herd, and is well respected for his calm reaction to pressure and problems

The Ereptum herd, is unlike most other herds. It's small, and consists entirely of one big family. Family issues have come up in the past, and diversity is very scarce among the herd members. After another, ruthless stallion attacked, killing of kidnapping most stallions and bachelor stallions, a kind, honest leader who the family trusted was needed to begin the healing process. Taking a leap of faith, the family followed this new leader, the first leader who wasn't related by blood, into joining with another herd. The Maison-Ereptum was formed.

~Mighty leads this herd, and is mates with the older lead stallion's daughter, though she was kidnapped and he was killed.

Now, onto the positions needed for each herd:

Maison:

~Stallions: 2

~Bachelor Stallions: 4

~Mares: 6

~Foals: 4 max

Ereptum:

~Bachelor Stallions: 3

~Mares: 4

~Foals: 2 max

REQUIREMENTS FOR ENTRIES:

RULES:

You know, follow all basic rules, and if you use a render, line art, or image in your entry that you did not make, CREDIT THE MAKER OR YOU WILL BE EXCLUDED.

Basics: Entries must be neat, and complete. Designs must be realistic and unique, bios must be believable and well-written, and the first bio presented below should be completed and included with all entries, as well as a full body image and link to the character. The second bio should be completed and included with characters who are not yet made, along with the first bio, and a full body image of the character. Each person may enter only two characters(excluding the optional extra foal), but this may change depending on the response.

Entries: A complete entry consists of one or both of the bios(listed below) completed and sent via comment or PM, a full body image of your character, and a link to that character(if applicable). Entries should be neat and complete, “work in progress”s will not be accepted. Send the bio, link, and image in one lump package, I promise I won't mind. Sending them in all at once saves time and energy, and makes things easier for me, which I like. Also, “full body” images should be just that, images of the full body of the character. This means that everything from the head to the four hooves is visible, and there is no over-lapping with other characters. You may send in a render/line art, but renders are preferred. Actually, images you made yourself are even better, but they must be full bodies.

Designs: If you know anything about me, you know that I'm HUGE into creativity and uniqueness, and I want to see those in an entry. The designs should be realistic, and definitely unique. However, if you feel that you can make a “cliche” design work, then go for it.

~must be realistic

-no zebra stripes/stripes at all(excluding dorsal, shoulder, and a FEW zebra stripes on the legs)

-no spots

-very few pintos/paints, but appaloosa's are fine, in a small amount

~must be unique

-be creative

Preexisting Characters: Already made characters are allowed, and old, abandoned ones are welcome, as long as you plan on bringing them back to life. When entering a preexisting character, you should:

1. fill in the FIRST bio(listed below) only, there is no need to fill in the second, but you may if you'd like.

2. Send in a full body image of the character(s).

3. Include a link to the character. You may either include this in the comment WITH the bio, or as a separate entry.

New Characters: New characters that do not yet have their own character page are accepted, as are character that you have adopted, have not yet created. If you don't want this character after you enter it, or if it doesn't get chosen and you have no other use for it, let me know and we will figure something out. Also, these characters are yours to keep, whether they make it or not, why would I want to steal your characters? When sending an entry for a new carrie, you should:

1. Fill in BOTH bios listed below. They should be sent together and neatly completed. No other information wold be required, but you may include some if you'd like.

2. Send in a full body image of the character.

3. Clarify if you would like to keep this character or not after the contest is completed.

    Parent(s) in herd:

TYING UP LOSE ENDS:

* When listing “Desired position in the herd” list the choice, like “Bachelor stallion” or “mare”.

** When filling “love life in the herd”, fill in “returned to herd after attack” or “will find mate within herd”.

*** I also understand that the “Yearling” and “Stallion/Mare” categories in the history may not apply to foal entries, so just ignore those.

****The “Lead mare” position for both herds will be chosen after the contest. The lead mare for the Maison herd will end up being Sage's mate, however the lead mare for the Ereptum herd will only be Mighty's right hand, since Mighty already has a mate.

Also, if you want to list Sage as one of your foal's parents, that will be decided for certain only after I chose a mate for Sage.

One last note, all entries for the Ereptums herd, MUST be related to Bonnie(Mighty's mate) or her father, Jenthro, who I will make soon. All flaxens, chestnuts, blacks, and other solid colors are accepted with high marks into the Ereptum family!

well, her mate is Joker (c) sierra and i don't think she'll fit with that position then

Guest	October 11, 2011

Blue: I added Fearless to the list, as well as her foals, if that's alright. I will need you to enter her mate, Haunted, in, however, in order for her mate to be in the herd. Also, I could use a picture of each of the foals, to link up with their names. Thanks! Snoopy, Beth: I moved Naira and Butterfly to the "Will find mate within herd" slot, since that wasn't specified. Let me know if I should change it back, or to another slot.

Ok, awesome So he's in?

Guest	October 10, 2011

Actually, now that you mention it... but he's one of the only horses in the herd that isn't related to Bonnie/Jenthro's family, so I guess it's OK.... and I see what you mean, he is kinda a "paint/appy" mix... but, you know what, he's fine, especially since EVERYpony else in his family is a paint!

HayleyWo lf	October 10, 2011

Is he too Painty? I kinda though of him as a Paint/Appaloosa like color.
