age:17
gender:Male
role: Riding Student
riding level:Intermediate
sexuality:Bi baby
play-by:Alex Evans
apperance:
Arden is very slim for his age, as well as considering the amount of food he consumes. His hair is jet black, falling to just above his shoulders in layers. Eyes are sapphire blue and enough to make you melt. His emotions are laid out in those eyes, which means they're often shining with happiness and laughter. His height isn't an issue, a healthy 5'8. Most likely, he won't grow an inch taller, but he's happy that way.
personality:
Arden is a friendly guy, never really in a bad mood. He loves to make people laugh and to enjoy a good laugh himself. Whenever others are around, he's at his happiest, being a natural people person. He believes that without friends and love, one's life is never complete. Thankfully, he's willing to wait for both, making him even more trustworthy and easy going.
While he's happy go lucky around others, alone is a different story. Anxiety attacks often fall upon him, mainly because he's afraid of being left alone again. His parent's death caused this disorder and, although it's negative, he's proud because it makes him unique. It also gives him a reason to be around people, which is a bonus in his eyes.
Animals control his hidden side. While around creatures, mainly equines, Arden is positive and full of passion. Failure isn't an option, even if it takes forever to finally get things right. He's at his hyperest when there is a horse around, which can potentially be a bad thing.
history:
Arden grew up in Blue Ridge, Georgia, a small town hidden away in the Blue Ridge mountains. Though the town is small, it's very modernized, meaning he didn't miss out on anything the world had to offer. His parents were both lawyers and rarely had time to take care of their son. So they enrolled the boy in riding lessons, hoping it would keep him busy while they worked on a pile of never ending paperwork.
It proved to keep him more than active. Arden learned to love horses and just animals in general. When his family moved to Atlanta when he was ten, they had to discontinue his lessons, breaking the boy's heart. As soon as the family settled, Arden was sent away to a bording school in England, his parents to busy to even make sure he was still alive. Their fate was soon sealed in a car accident while Arden was on a plane to a foreign country.
As soon as he landed, the youngster's aunt called for a flight back. She's raised him since, making sure he got all the attention he needed. When he was fourteen years old, Arden begged his new guardian to begin his lessons once more. She gave in and thus, his love of horses grew stronger and stronger with the passing years.
When he became sixteen, Arden returned home to Georgia. He found a place of his own and began to search for a horse to call his own as well. He found a horse soon after his search began and they've been together ever since.
role-play sample: from Daufuskie
Arden grinned to himself as he finished about ten of the small clumps of hair. Only about a dozen or so more and the mare would be ready for their afternoon ride. Resting his hands for a few moments, Ardy stretched his arms over his head, his bright green shirt riding up to expose his stomach. Once he felt as if his arms were all stretched out, he lowered them, only to notice that a boy and his horse passed with the head stable hand leading them.
A soft pink blush overcame his face and he returned to the chestnut before him. Why he was embarrassed he didn’t know. Arden was often times way to outgoing for his own good. Shrugging to himself, a song rushed through his head and, absentmindedly, he began to sing again. He heard the faint sound of voices not to far off, but he ignored them for now, knowing the words weren’t meant for him.
However, minutes later, the boy whom had passed earlier approached. He had some sort of book in his hands and Arden stood on tip toes to peer over the mare’s neck. Giving up with that tactic, he ducked beneath her neck and smiled warmly at the other boy. Of course, when he spoke, a confused look overcame Ardy’s features. Soon, they faded when he realized he must not be a native to the country and his smile returned.
Hi there Olaf! Pleased to meet you, my name is Arden.
The blue eyed boy made sure his speech was slow enough for the boy to understand, yet not obviously so. Bright eyes sparkled with joy, considering this was his first time meeting another guy around Daufuskie. Other than Garret, the English trainer, he hadn’t known of any other riders who were male. Echo nickered softly, reaching her muzzle out towards the newcomer. Her nostrils flared before she snorted and took a step forward, landing on the black haired boy’s foot as she did so.
Ouch!
After bending down and grabbing his foot, Arden blushed softly. Then turning to the chestnut, he glared softly. He didn’t know why she was out to embarrass him, but it seemed that she was in his eyes. Shaking his head, he turned back to Olaf, in time to see the mare bob her head in the boy’s direction before attempting to search his pockets for treats. Thankfully, the crossties stopped her and Arden laughed softly, dropping his foot back to the ground.
I think she likes you.
His voice was soft and kind as he returned his attention to the younger boy. He was shorter than Arden and his face was more elegant than his own. Arden bet it was his growth spurt that made him so leggy, but he quickly shoved those thoughts out of his mind. Ardy was too focused on what the boy would say next to worry himself over silly things.
