the Rift




Calyndar

Unclaimed


 

Species: Equine Gender: Stallion Age: 7 Height: 16.0
Appearance
A Friesian standing at 16hh, a coat the deepest of blacks that makes him one with the shadows is riddled with old scars, giving this stallion a different look while also showing he's lived a life before making it to Helovia. Muscular and sound in his shape, his once curled and flowing mane/tail is now mostly matted and unhealthy. The main defining features of Calyndar has to be his eyes though; the right: a beautiful sterling grey, while the left is blind, jagged claw marks running over it from a long time ago enemy. All of this combined gives this weary soul an intimidating look that can be very off-putting for ones that meet him the first time.


Personality
A sleeping dragon is still a dragon, and Calyndar is one such thing.
A hardened life grows a hardened man, and so Calyndar grew as such. A bloke that had been taught later in his life not to show emotions, that is something that still tends to stick with him today. Glimpsing a laugh or smile is rare from him. Still, after that, he learned to care. Gentle, kind, respectful. He learned to be such things, and has always had a soft spot for foals because of their care-free attitude and joy.
Far from reckless and foolish, his restlessness is the only thing that keeps him anxious and fidgety, often causing him to pace at times. He has a good head on him, that he can guarantee, but as his life has pushed him, so has it his mind. Leading it to wander and lose focus more often than not, he tends to seek peace and quiet in these times to anchor himself back to the real world around him.
Battle-hardened and battle worn, when pushed he will lash as any snake or dragon might, and will hold no punches when doing so. Still, weary soul he is, he has seen that speaking, more often than not, is better than fighting. Confrontations is not something he will shy away from though, and when those that have managed to get closer than an arms-length are involved, he will fight until he can't any longer.


History
Growing up in more of the wooded regions of earth, Calyndar began with his mother, but was soon separated by a rogue stallion that ran him off at just sigh of a year old. What happened to his mom? He doesn't know and never found out.
Now on his own at quite a young age, Calyndar saw little hope for himself. His saving grace came in the form of a filly near the same age as himself though: Tawala. The filly had been exploring and had stumbled upon Calyndar in an outcrop of rocks and had quickly called over her sire and dam, Ann and Daviid. They took Calyndar in without a second thought and quickly became his adoptive family.
At near 2 1/2 years of age, his adoptive sire and dam, which Calyndar towered over quite easily, saw fit for Tawala and he to go their separate ways. A bittersweet moment, but with a growing love that went beyond the boundaries of friendship every growing for Tawala, Calyndar saw it as the perfect thing to. Tawala, the sneaky and horrible mare, had left in the dead of night while they had rested. When they three of them had discovered this, Calyndar only grew more determined to find the now missing mare.
A year he spent looking for her. A year that he would later regret, for when he finally found her - the foolish boy that he was - spoke of his undying love for her. A yelling match broke out when Tawala spoke of how that wasn't possible, for he was her brother, if not by blood but bond, and how she had found another she loved. Calyndar, having of hoped for something very different, was shaken and returned the spit twice as much. For when provoked, the stallion became a force to be reckoned with.
With their rocky ending, Calyndar grew dejected and hollow. At the age of 4, he ran into Satanael. Oh how much of a monster that one turned out to be. Once an adviser to a herd, Satanael was now an outcast and had staked claim to an area of more dense wood that Calyndar had been traversing. Satanael, the manipulative and deceptive stallion that he was, gave the fake notion of Calyndar being for happier living with him and helping him defend his territory that with any old mare. Calyndar, filled with rage and sadness, readily agreed and stayed in that dark and gloomy wood with a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Also, it seemed that hellhound's resided there too. How fun.
Calyndar was like clay to Satanael; the old brute was able to shape and mold Calyndar into the perfect killing machine. Teaching him how to bury his emotions and show no mercy to those he came across. The hellhound's that lived in the words ended up being Calyndar's closest confidants and friends. The beast were far from actual beast. Still, Calyndar knew nothing other that what Satanael had taught him. The bloodied and corpse filled woods had became his home. He didn't know life beyond them. Of course, in dropped a the white coated mare. Not Tawala, no, that Calyndar then would have soon caved her head in with his own hooves than speak to her again. This beauty was a roaring fire too stubborn for her own good, and how it pains Calyndar now that he isn't with her. Karisha: that beautiful mare that saved the horrid beast.
The beginning of their relationship was not without it's trials though. Satanael was old, yes, but insanity had gotten the better of him, and as soon as Calyndar announced he would be leaving, the once mentor turned into the enemy. The hellhound's, no matter how close of friends they were to Calyndar, still had one true master, and followed Satanael without fault. Calyndar, the fool he was no longer, had decided to flee as quickly as possible, back to the edge of the bloodied woods and to where he knew his heart was. Calyndar did not leave unscathed of course, bites, claw marks, hoof marks, nips and picks. He had been left for dead on the ground. Karisha, the amazing, wonderful, head-strong Karisha, had ventured into the woods when she grew worried for Calyndar's life. It was then that she found her ever growing love laid out on the floor, bleeding, wounded, and now blind in one eye.
She stayed there, that foolish and kind mare, leaving her former herd and stallion for the horrendous killer that Calyndar was. How undeserving he was for her, but still she stayed.
Calyndar left the woods close to 6 years of age.
A year and a half he had with his wonderful Karisha. Where he gave her his soul and she stuck by his side no matter how lost and dejected he grew. A year and a half he had with her and a lost little filly that they found abandoned and took in when they knew Karisha would never be able to bare any of her own. A wonderful year and a half away from the chaos and pain that had been his life. A year and a half where Calyndar's mind began to wonder more and more until he lost them.
He doesn't remember how, only that they two of them, his love and foal, and been in front of him until he looked up and they were gone. Gone without a single sound and he despises himself for it. He doesn't know how. Only that he was alone again in a world that he saw little to live for. So he walked, and walked, and continued to walk, until Helovia was in front.
