Name: Bristile (Bree)
Age: 6 years
Breed: Thoroughbred x Shire x Quarter Horse
Gender: stallion
Region: Wanderer
Appearance: Bristile usually takes on the appearance of a sturdy, bright chestnut stallion. He has a star, and a large snip that almost could be called a stripe. He has two hind stockings, one front sock, and a little white spot on the other front leg. He stands at about 16.2 hands, and has a fairly burly build. He is very fast, and quite strong. He looks like he could be a massive jumping Warmblood horse, but he his not. Though he is pretty good at jumping. He has big, calming dark blue eyes, and large, almost mulish ears. Generally, a very friendly sort of appearance. It is impossible to detect any sort of power emitting from this horse.
However, this is only one of his disguises, as he is a shape shifter. His other form can be taken two ways. It can be seen as horrific, or rather awesome. However you want to take it. The creature he turns into is, for starters, generally horse in form. It is a tall beast, standing over eighteen hands (probably about 18.2hh), and has the appearance of a slightly underfed horse. Skinny and lanky, with massive withers. Where hooves on this creature should be extend taloned claws, in the front, three front toes and a back, and the back, four fronts and a back. He has a long, lanky neck, and a wispy mane and tail, and a short, narrow horn extends from his forehead. The color of this creature is entirely black. Massive, leathery black wings protrude from his shoulders, just below the withers, and he is very maneuverable in the air. When he opens his mouth, three inch canines can be seen, along with rows of pointed, flesh ripping teeth.
Personality: Despite his rather horrific ability, Bristile doesn't use it much. He is much happier to remain a horse and eat grass, as his other form is strictly carnivorous, though he almost never eats horses. He prefers not to be seen as a cannibal. Besides, horses are way too difficult; after all, he is not THAT big. He uses his second form for a few purposes. When he is bored, and when he is traveling. It is very easy to get to the highest peaks, and travel across the country in a day with a twenty or so foot wingspan. He loves flying, and goes exploring when he is bored. He is a good natured fellow, you will often catch him humming a tune or singing a song, and he likes a good chat. He's got a rather dry, witty sense of humor, and is very laid back. He's a devoted, loyal friend to the point of death. He hates the ocean, and detests silent, moody horses, and prefers cold weather over hot. He can be rather irritating with his cheerfulness.
Power: Shape shifts into what he calls a "Night Horse"
History: Bristile's had a funky history. He never quite figured out where his power came from, but it came to him when he was a year old, and is the reason he was kicked out of his herdland. One day, he was being bullied by a couple of older yearlings (Meaning a year and a half), when suddenly, he transformed into a creature that was almost sixteen hands, with wings and teeth. At first, Bristile did not realize the change, so when he lashed out with what he thought was a front hoof to protect himself, he left deep gashes in the older colts chest, terrifying him. He was chased from the herd, and never saw his family again. So, he began to wander. He wandered through the lands of Amun, and the lands of Osiris, but he felt no particular draw to them, and so he wandered alone. All by himself.
For five long years he's done this, but the gift of his personality has held him unspoiled by his lonely wanderings. He is always searching for horses to talk to, and sometimes he considers settling down someday. He'll worry about that when it comes. He has yet to find love and companionship, but again...he'll deal with it later.
