PERSONALITY
Crazy son of a horse.

Lucifer lives up to his name well. Even though he should be mature, he isn’t really. Which is where Carver comes in. The only time Lucifer behaves himself is usually when Carver is in the saddle. When Delany first bought Devil’s Delight, Carver and him went at it, both battling for dominance. After a few hospital visits on Carver’s behalf, the horse submitted and is calm under saddle-for the most part. However, in the alley he’s a real bitch. Crow hopping and half hearted rears make people instantly realize that it’s the golden palomino giving all the trouble. But once Carver gets the bad streak out of him, Lucifer gives near perfect runs every time; he hardly ever knocks down poles.


HISTORY
Lucifer was born from a breeding of an excellent brood mare and the world champion pole bending horse at the time. They were both calm tempered horses, so it’s often pondered why Lucifer is such a crazy stallion. Nonetheless, whatever his temperament, he was outstanding at turning on a dime, and his stop was poetry in motion.

Poetry In Motion was actually going to be on his pedigree, but before his owner could write it, she was rushed outside to look at something. It was Lucifer, who had totally trashed the feed room after freeing himself from his stall. With a goofy horse grin on his face. Thus Devil’s Delight was born. When Delany saw what the 9 year old could do, she purchased him on the spot. For a substantial amount of money, of course.
So that is how Lucifer came to be in Carver’s possession. Of course, he gets along fine with other horses, except for Carver’s mare, Pyromaniac Tendencies. Those two fight more than cats.

BARN NAME
CiCi


OWNER
Carver Zeeke


AGE
8 years


BREED
Quarter Horse x Mustang


GENDER
Mare


HEIGHT
15.2 hh


COLOR
Cremello


EQUIPMENT
Classic western with red pad; boots; etc.


PERSONALITY
CiCi is quite the little mare. She’s like warm butter scotch crumb cake-only embedded with sharp razors. She’s the spike in spiked punch; the itch in a bug bite; and the after taste to an old mango. Still in training, you can’t put anything past her. She could suddenly spaz out at a spider on the ground, but stay rock solid as a nuclear bomb explodes ten feet away. Her only redeeming quality is that she’s simply amazing at running poles. When she doesn’t freak in the middle of a run, that is. A perfect run can put her above Lucifer on the boards. A bad run can leave Carver in an irritable mood, and people whispering about how crazy he is to ‘have a mare like that’.
She is, however, people friendly out from saddle, and is superb when ridden bareback. She doesn’t get edgy at feed time, and she’ll stay close to your side without a lead rope. Also, CiCi gets extremely pissed when people try to use spurs on her.



HISTORY
CiCi is actually distantly related to Lucifer. Lucifer’s sire is her dam’s half brother. Making her a sort of cousin to the palomino. But they don’t share family love. The two equines loathe each other. Carver had to put plywood between them in the trailer so that when he goes to lead them out, their faces won’t be mangled; and the trailer walls will be intact.
Actually, CiCi was considered too much of a devil at age 6, so she was off to the auction. People were bidding on her until she lunged at a little kid passing by. They all withdrew. Except Carver. He saw potential. The little mare was obviously filled with fire, but he liked it. His mother saw death, but the boy kept bidding until the spiteful mare was his. When he got her pedigree and read her name he laughed for 3 minutes straight at her name.
CiCi wasn’t exactly his smartest horse buy, but is on the top ten. She’s already calmed down in the 2 years he’s had her, so Carver thinks that by the time she’s 13, CiCi will be one badass pole horse.


DISCIPLINES
Pole bending.
Bucking. [[She’s so good, it’s considered a discipline for her. xD]]
