Even Angels Fall... — Description
***COMPETITION ENTRYYYY!!!***

This is my entry for *Equinus 's competition to design her gorgeous mare Cora a mate Well... I said I'd challenge myself didn't I... DEAR LORD... someone fetch me a doctor... 0_o -ded-

Meet Marlowe... He is besotted with the sea. Marlowe was born with an anchor marking on his neck, and an arrow pointing north up his right foreleg. His mane is short due to the raging winds and his tail is plaited to keep it from flying around in the air.

Name: Marlowe (Old English for 'Drained Lake'... how romantic 0_o)

Age: 6

Breed: Shire x Irish Draft

Personality: Marlowe is a gentle creature, a brute yes, but gentle nonetheless and with a heart that is not easily melted. Like the sea that he loves so much, Marlowe has hidden depths, he can become angry and then calm in a matter of seconds. This was a problem for him earlier on in his life as he grew the reputation for being unpredictable and was thus shunned from his herd. A solitary life has given him the ability to control this wave like emotion pattern.

He is a complicated character, one who requires a huge amount of attention in order to break the surface. Yes, he is a challenge, but a challenge worth while. Beneath his gruff exterior and general arrogance lies a warm and caring beast, one with a severe lack of self-confidence, fiercely loyal and protective to those who manage to infiltrate his icy outer layer. He has an uncanny way of keeping others at arm's length- one might say that he expects others to respect his space as much as he respects theirs. Marlowe is a very polite character, ever the gentleman- though sometimes has an unfortunate habit of becoming rather clumsy with his words around the more feminine gender.

This boy is highly inquisitive and indeed intelligent. His wiseness is as a result of many years existing as a nomad along the shores, meeting others of his kind only on few occassions and exploring his home range with a fine tooth comb. He is like a sponge, taking things in and keeping them locked away for use at a later date. He never forgets a face, or a name... So be wary.

He is not an open book, and as some say, the harder the read the more interesting the ending. He may be a bit of hard work, but once you have done the initial work on breaking his shell... its easy sailing from there.
