Confutatis says: "Not happening".

Steel sword catching snowflakes
Sword could be a reference to her warlike personality? Steel to her gray mane/tail?

"Another pretty spy does this world posess!
But no today you may keep your Legatus."

Oxy is NOT sought.


"Be gone you foul creature,
And take your precious babes,
Can't you see the Basin does not feature,
To see your dark shades."

Confutatis is NOT sought.

For the rest of your herd that may not be the case."

”You're out of guesses,
Time to reveal for whom my riddle presses.”

Ciceron’s armor was sought.


Steel sword catching snowflakes
APPERANCE REF:: Circeron is described as a “dappled steel grey” (profile). So the steel catching snowflakes would become spotted with white, like dapples.
APPERANCE REF:: Sword are usually associated with unicorns, which Circeron is.
The next season, grows and glowing
MAGIC REF:: The next season would be spring. Even if not using the other clue it could be deduced this was spring because it grows. Spring is the season of growing. So the character would have to have something to do with glowing things that grow in spring. Ciceron has vines and floral designs wrap around his legs and shoulders. He has a passive magic that makes them glow.
Oh but the long sun bores new hearts
BIRTH REF:: Born in summer
Joy abounds, till the sun left you in the fall
HISTORY REF:: Play on words. Sun sounds like son (could also be a metaphor for his sunshine, and happiness, which would be his mate and son). And Fall= Hidden Falls. So happiness was his until his son left him in the falls.
HERD REF:: left you in the fall= Fall=Hidden Falls. This character resides in the Hidden Falls
Now winter battles keep you company again.
RANK REF:: Battles= soldier.

ETF:: Rhyme above because I'm an idiot....>>

+1 | appearance reference is spot on. I saw multiple groups guessing that it was a gray unicorn!

The next season, grows and glowing
MAGIC REF:: The next season would be spring. Even if not using the other clue it could be deduced this was spring because it grows. Spring is the season of growing. So the character would have to have something to do with glowing things that grow in spring. Ciceron has vines and floral designs wrap around his legs and shoulders.

+1 | magic ref to glowing floral markings
-1 | the next season bit was confusing as this did not seem like a magic reference but a birdsong reference somehow


Oh but the long sun bores new hearts
BIRTH REF:: Born in summer

+1 | makes sense and some groups were looking for those born in tallsun

Joy abounds, till the sun left you in the fall
HISTORY REF:: Play on words. Sun sounds like son (could also be a metaphor for his sunshine, and happiness, which would be his mate and son). And Fall= Hidden Falls. So happiness was his until his son left him in the falls.
HERD REF:: left you in the fall= Fall=Hidden Falls. This character resides in the Hidden Falls

0 | this part was confusing to me, even in your explanation, maybe I am not so familiar with Ciceron, but fall made me think of a season or a fall from grace

Now winter battles keep you company again.
RANK REF:: Battles= soldier.

+1 | very obvious rank reference

3/3 is a pass!

+1| Yep. I thought of this.

The next season, grows and glowing

+1 | We're in spring right now. Next season would be summer :) But things still grow in Summer, and given that his markings do glow I think this is a great clue!


Oh but the long sun bores new hearts
BIRTH REF:: Born in summer
+1| Yep. Right there on his profile.


Joy abounds, till the sun left you in the fall
HISTORY REF:: Play on words. Sun sounds like son (could also be a metaphor for his sunshine, and happiness, which would be his mate and son). And Fall= Hidden Falls. So happiness was his until his son left him in the falls.
HERD REF:: left you in the fall= Fall=Hidden Falls. This character resides in the Hidden Falls
+1| I had to really think about this. I couldn't find where on his profile it said that Ilios left. Is he said about it? I know that Paralia left too, but .. I was really torn. HOWEVER, I am happy to give you a point for the falls reference. If things had been more updated on Ciceron's profile I wouldn't have hesitated at all.

Now winter battles keep you company again.
RANK REF:: Battles= soldier.

0 | 'winter battles' made me think this was going to be a specific history reference. I think it's too vague that way you've phrased it. Ciceron has actually only sparred once so the plural was weird for me, and given that his only battle took place in the spring it didn't seem like I could make the winter battle connection there. Perhaps if it had said spring? I know you were trying to go through the seasons, but it made this one really hard for me.

+4 is a pass from me


Personally I thought this was an awesome stealth!
