PERSONALITY
Delilah hasn’t quite matured past the stage of being playful and that tends to be the first thing on her mind. In fact it can be very hard for her to take anything seriously and often makes a game out of everything she does. This can come off as either endearing or annoying at first and will often progress to finding her annoying. She just isn’t sure how to take something seriously and with further experience this will probably die down further in life. For the moment she just wants to play.
She can be a little manipulative and spoilt, expecting other horses to just drop what they’re doing and do what she wants to because of either her sweet demeanour or the way she looks. She can kick up quite a fuss if she doesn’t get and in the end it’s probably easier to just do as the little madam wants.
Now that she’s three she has noticed the attention she can get from stallions and she tends to turn this into a game as well. She loves the compliments that she gets and plays along with the game that they want her to play but at the end of it she won’t let them near her. That wouldn’t be as fun in her opinion, despite liking to play she doesn’t have a great love of people touching her. She doesn’t really understand how dangerous a game this can be to play and she probably won’t until she is in real danger. She’s been told by other mares her games are foolish but she doesn’t like to listen.
Delilah can be quite the stubborn little mare and she always thinks she’s right despite a lot of evidence pointing to the curiosity. If she thinks she’s going to be nagged or she doesn’t like where the conversation is going she will either change the direction of the conversation or she will merely ignore you and go find something to do.
She is frightfully naive and still under the impression that everyone is good deep down and that nothing will happen to her. It only ever happens to someone else- right?
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Delilah stands at 14.2hh, just about a horse. She is taller than some but she is a lot smaller than others. Especially since her frame is compact while still remaining to be lean and elegant. As far as she can tell, she only descends from Morgans and Arabians. Her glorious red coat is her pride and joy and a source of great vanity for her. The colour is only interrupted by a white stripe down her face, which takes more after her Arabian heritage, and a white pastern on her hind right and front left feet. Her mane and tail begin the same sorrel colour but become progressively lighter further down. She possesses no scars or anything else that might mar her appearance. Delilah is all in all quite a beautiful mare and she does tend to let this go to her head.

HISTORY
From the moment she was born she was fawned over and told how pretty she was. She got pretty much everything that she wanted because of it and that included people playing with her on a whim. She got people to do what she wanted with relative ease and decided that this was the way she liked to live her life. However, she soon grew bored of being in her herd and decided she wanted to explore the rest of her world before she went back to either that herd or another for constant playmates.
Despite her naive and childish nature, she’s coped pretty well on her own and has found that she quite enjoys dancing around on her own to practise so that she can show off to anyone who will watch.
