Thunder



Herd: Valeryk

Title: Patron of Herd Valeryk

''Thunder is one of the four legendary horses of Bella Sara. He is known for his courage and strength, and is friends with the Blackcomb Lion, a strong lion with a black blaze in its mane and a golden pelt, who shares his courage and strength. ''

Appearance
Thunder is a night black stallion with a tint of blue. He has a wild black mane and tail that are cut jaggedly but always seem to be flowing from the wind of a storm. He has a white symbol on his left hind-quarters in the shape of a lightning bolt branching out. He has lots of feathering around his fetlocks and has a strong, muscular build to match his tough demeanor. His head and neck are quite broad, which match his large ears and constantly flared nostrils. His hooves are a dusty brown. If he stomps his hooves hard enough, lightning bolts shoot from them and storms wreak havoc. Wherever he goes, a raging thunderstorm follows. He has midnight black, cold eyes, and resembles a Fresian to a tee.

History
Thunder has been brave since he was born - he was born in a thunderstorm! Shortly thereafter, he was found by Bella and Sara, who were impressed enough to help him on his journey to become a legend. This has connected him with storms and lightning. He helped rebuild Herd Valeryk with Valeryk himself, and now helps rule over it with King Sleetmane and Queen Snowdreamer.

Personality
Thunder may be known for his courage, but he cares and protects those he loves with such intensity that almost no one dares attack him. He also has a soft spot for foals, though he doesn't like to admit it, as he likes to keep up a serious manner. It is said that he may have had a foal once, but the foal died.

Magical Gift
Thunder is able to summon lightning from the sky, and when he stomps his hooves lightning bolts shoot from them. He has the ability to conjure wild storms and masters them with a strength. He can give the gift of courage to humans.

Magical Friend
