Dani E. Lessen
[/center]basic:
full name: Dani Elizabeth Lessen
nickname(s): Dani
age: 16
gender: Female
role: Riding Student, Boarder, Trainer.
riding level: Intermediate - Advanced
sexuality: Straight/Heterosexual
play-by: Alison Lohman
appearance:
Dani's a small girl, with long and curly brunette hair. Her high metabolism allows her to eat and not gain the slightest bit of weight, but this does affect her figure. Her height is around 5'3" to 5'4", and she's around 100lbs. Dani has the gene from her father's side, which means she's got hairier arms, etc. Her eyes are a dark hazel, which causes her eyes to reveal her emotions. Her style is pretty much her own. Some old skinny jeans, barn boots, and black half chaps are her preferred ensemble. She doesn't much do things with her hair besides the occasional ponytail(s).
personality:
Dani is an original young person, and always has a child-like ora surrounding her. She's a silly person, a klutz. Dani fears being the only one standing in a crown where everyone is on their knees, but if it is required or the right thing to do she will stand out. However, she sometimes doesn't do what she knows is right, and she likes it when things go her way. She's not a charisma freak, and doesn't care about the silly things people do for popularity, but she does enjoy attention, especially flattery. And, she's on the selfish side when it comes to most things other than animals.
history:
Dani was born on the last day of the year in a town called Suffolk, located in Virginia. She cannot remember when, if there ever was, at time when she hadn't loved horses and riding. She started riding at the age of eleven, and continued to progress very quickly. She picked up riding techniques and they always seemed to stick easily. When her two parents decided to give her time to chase her dream of becoming an Olympian, they sent her to live with her uncle in Roanoke, another town in the state of Virginia where a very successful riding stable was located. She was always a well-developed person mentally, but she still disliked spending too much time with her two younger siblings, which contributed to another reason for her parents to send her to her father's brother.
role-play sample:
The grass felt good as is twisted itself between Dani's toes and she sighed. She'd miss this house, her family of five, and her nearby grandparents. It wouldn't be easy to forget her friends either, but her school... Well, she could definitely live without that. Her purple iPod playfully sung in her pierced ears as she watched the blue sky, her elbows on her knees and her hands dangling in between. She was wearing a faded brown shirt and dark skinny jeans, which bunched up at her ankles.
"Dani, come on we're gonna be late!"
Dani looked over at her father's almost-full truck bed and lightly yanked the earphones out of her ears and announced eagerly, "Alright, coming!"
She bunched up her iPod and stuffed it into her back pocket as she opened the passenger side door to the gray truck. Her father was going to take her up to Roanoke, where her uncle on her father's side lived. She'd have to get a job when she got there, but it could work. She thought pleasantly the entire way there, though it seemed longer than the trip really was. Maybe she was too excited... Should she be looking forward to this as much as she is? What if it was just a big let down, and the stable went out of business, or worse. What if the town was dump?!
The light drizzle trickled down the windshield and she sang Hello by Sugarland, and her dad scribbled his signature on some type of form. "What's that?" She asked, taking an earphone out and pointing it toward the paper. "Your liability waver," he answered, "you'll need it before y..."
"I know what a liability waver is Dad." She answered in a giggle. "Oh, OK. Just making sure," he folded up the paper with one hand, the other on the wheel, which Dani had no clue of how he'd done it, then handed it to Dani, "Give it to the barn manager if there isn't a box for it."
"I could just mail it ya know.."
"Well that'd be no way to make acquaintances now would it?"
"Nope.." She turned to stare out the window at the greenery as the truck turned onto her uncle Mark's street.

in depth:
short description: Danny's a dapple gray and he stands taller than Dani herself. He's always tidy, as Dani takes pride in keeping his coat the beautiful gray it is. His long tail is a pale, sandy color as well as his mane.
short temperament: He's got a pretty fruity personality, and he seriously acts like a two year old.
history: Dani bought Danny on her way to live with her uncle here near Autumn Hills. She planned on buying him a week before they left, and since the drive to Roanoke took them past his old owner's boarding facility it was much easier travel-wise. Dani'd found an ad for the dapple gray, and had seen him participate in a few events on television. She knew he had prospect, much greater than where he was, and she figured since both their promises may lead them to the Olympics, she might as well buy him. Since then, Dani has pretty much fallen in love with the horse.
show history:
-Previous events with his previous owners.
