It might be awkward to have a horse character riding a horse, but I’ll see how that can be compensated for if I’m approved…
Yes, I do realize that the whole Native integration thing was full force in the 1900’s, but it also happened earlier than that too.
Name: Galloping Moon Shadow or Sasha Nanemonski, depending on how you know her
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Species: Horse
Nationality/Origin: Native American-Indian. From a Southwestern Colorado/New Mexico tribe, specifically the Navajo tribe.
Occupation: Unemployed, but will occasionally sell/trade beadwork and other artistic venues for low costs.
Appearance:
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3034352/Clothing: Uncanny to Sasha’s tomboyish nature, she actually prefers wearing lacy dresses like the European woman do and find them pretty. However, her lifestyle dictates that she stick with pants, chaps, decorated leather boots and a button-up white blouse.
Weapons: Nothing that her tribe would not approve of, aka no guns. She sticks with her kunai-like hunting knives and her bow and arrow set whenever possible.
Skills: Formidable in the artistic field. Can weave, do beadwork, leatherwork, and different forms of painting quite well. She is a great cook, versed in many foods from different nationalities. She’s also good (but not great) when it comes to murder.
Personality: Sasha hates being talked to by anyone who might possibly think they are better than her, seeing as how many Europeans stick up their nose at Natives this is only natural. She’s shy in public, sticking to herself, and only doing and saying what needs to be done and said. Alone or in the company of close friends, she becomes friendlier but also more distant, in a mystical sort of way. But be warned, she’s an excellent liar, and she also doesn’t take too well to being told down to or bullied.
Biography: Sasha was, in fact, not raised directly in her tribe but was kidnapped as a baby, alongside a few other Navajo children and taken to the Eastern states. The kidnappers were immigrants from Russian-European descent. Their motive: convert the ‘wild ones’ to Christianity, even be that conversion a harsh process. Her schooling lasted for awhile, until, at age ten, she was adopted by a kind and loving ‘uncle’ named Leon Nanemonski. He was a self-appointed explorer, who had traveled to Egypt, China, the wilds of South America, and supposedly beyond. His various souvenirs, strewn across his mansion, proved these boasts.
For a time she was happy. But not for long. At age fourteen she found herself kidnapped again, this time by a perverted red fox who called himself Burgundy. Turned out that Burgundy was a well-known wanted man in America, with several bank robberies and murders to his name…according to this insane fox, the last thing on his criminal to-do-list was nab himself an Indian wife and move out west….After Burgundy killed her ‘uncle’ viciously and took her away, they did in fact move out west. But they never got married.
Because Sasha killed him viciously in heated revenge and buried him in the dusty backyard of what was once to be their house of marriage and partnership.
From that day forward, she devoted herself to murder, living in the wilderness, stalking and killing those travelers who don’t pay heed to her warnings and suggestions, and loving every minute of it. She will sometimes venture from her wilderness tent and go into towns, usually to buy the provisions she’ll need to survive or else to sell her wares. Lucky for her, none of the murders of which she was the suspect in have been solved or even reported, and therefore she still manages to stay off the radar and off the wanted list. Also, she has made connections with her long lost tribe and has been appointed a more fitting name by the Navajo tribe elders. One that she holds dearly.
