Locked in love Horse RP sign ups

Inspiried by Agapi. There has always been two herds, a strong herd of stallions, and a larger, weaker herd of mares. And every year the two herds come together to reproduce for the two herds to continue to grow and stay full of horses. 

Everyone was happy, and there was no worry about hearts being broken or feelings being hurt, because every mate was chosen purely to create a good, strong foal. 

No one ever had a problem with this system, for a long time. But as time went on, things changed. 

After a while, the mares started to rebel, and no longer want to produce foals for the stallions, so they have began moving away, unbeknownst that the stallions had been following them. 

One night while the mares were all sleeping, the stallions caged them all in an old, abandon barn. 

Then the next morning, the mares were to be auctioned off to the stallions, and each mare had to produce that stallion's foal. 

Now, this capturing and caging of the mares is tradition. And it is that time again this year, for each mare to be auctioned off to a stallion. 

The mares have started to rebel again, recently though. They started becoming restless, and no longer want to be caged and sold.

But that didn't change a thing, and the Alpha Stallion is persistent on caging the mares. 


Herd Rules
⟹ Alpha Stallion doesn't have to "bid", he get's mare of his choosing when it is her turn to be auctioned off. 
⟹ Beta Stallion doesn't have to "bid", he get's mare of his choosing when it is her turn to be auctioned off, so long as Alpha Stallion doesn't want the same mare. Alpha Stallion's wants overrule that of Beta Stallion. 
⟹ Unless the stallion who won her lets her go for the next year, then the mare must produce a foal for the stallion who won her, and may not escape. 
⟹ Every stallion must bid at least on one mare, though if he choses to set her free or use her is up to him
⟹ A stallion may have a maximum of three mares. 
⟹ When foals are born, they stay with their mother until they are weaned, after which they join the proper herd. Colts join the Stallions, and Fillies join the Mares. 
⟹ Alpha Stallion's word is law, after that, Beta Stallion's. If a mare births her foal before everyone else, she is free to do as she wishes when her foal is matured, meaning she may run free with any, if there was any, released mares.
⟹ Stallions may not physically abuse their mare(s), though may punish her if need be. If he is found hurting her without or outside of reason, he shall be exiled depending on severity of the situation. 

Bidding Lingo
Horses don't actually "bid", but more so fight. If a stallion wants a mare, he says he claims her. If some other stallion wants her, then he claims a challenge, and they fight. If multiple stallions want a mare, they all fight at once. It is not a fight to the death, and no stallion needs to be fatally injured. Once the Alpha or Beta declares the winner, the fight is over and the next mare is brought up. Alpha and Betas do not have to fight. 

Rules
➔ Please please please be literate and detailed. 3+ sentences per character per post. You will received one warning, before you will be kicked from the roleplay. 
a. While I expect everyone to be detailed, descriptive, literate, etc, I don't want to read about gore and everything. That is unneeded. 
➔ Please be active. I understand we all have lifes, and aren't roleplay robots who sit at a computer all day, but please try to post at least once a day, and if you know you won't be online to post for a few days, please forewarn me.
a. If you are gone for a long period of time without an explanation you will be kicked. 
➔ I love original, unique characters that are unlike anyone else's. I understand there is lots of people who think similarly when it comes to creating characters, I have encountered that problem before, but I dont want a bunch of Jane Does and Billy Bobs running around in the roleplay. 
➔ Make at least one mare and one stallion. If you want to make more, that is fine, but I prefer the number of mares be larger than the number of stallions if it is to be uneven. 
➔ If you have read all the rules post how excited on a scale of one to ten, 1 being not very, and 10 being extremely, how excited you are in the Q/C/C portion of the sign up. 
➔ Have fun!

★ Name: Serval
☆ Nickname: Serv, Ser
★ Gender: ♂
☆ Age: 2
▶▶▶
★ Rank: stallion
☆ Desired Rank: n/a
★ Crush: n/a as of now
☆ Family: n/a
▶▶▶
★ Five Words: cautious / reserved / kindhearted / shy / brooding
☆ Description: Serval is classic dun in color, with extensive rabicano. He has a wide blaze on his face, cutting between his friendly dark brown eyes. He has a stocking on his right foreleg, as well as a sock on his left hind leg. He has a lithe but well-built body, standing at 14.3hh. His breed, though mixed, is mainly a Nokota horse.
★ History: Serval has had a rather good life. His parents had a decent relationship, and he was/is pretty close with his siblings and half-siblings, especially while he was growing up.
☆ Questions/Comments/Concerns: 10/10, because I was in an RP very similar to this a couple of years ago and had a lot of fun... Speaking of that, do you know who's idea this was originally?

★ Name: Mackerel
☆ Nickname: Mack
★ Gender: ♀
☆ Age: 7
▶▶▶
★ Rank: mare
☆ Desired Rank: n/a
★ Crush: n/a
☆ Family: n/a
▶▶▶
★ Five Words: blunt / sardonic / dull / condescending / defeated
☆ Description: Mackerel is fleabitten gray, with different shades of freckles littering her pelt. Her mane has shorter-than-normal patches in it from when stallions (and occasionally her fellow mares) have had to restraint her (they still haven't fully grown out, which says something about how vicious she can sometimes get), and she also has numerous scars from similar events. Her dark brown eyes have an ever-present mocking light in them, though they've grown duller over time. She's some kind of Thoroughbred/Appaloosa cross, with other breeds mixed in, of course. She has a lean, worn-down build, and a height of 15.2hh.
★ History: Mack learned early on in life that rebelling against the system is a futile quest. She experienced firsthand the effects of such a way of life - her father was absent for most of her foalhood, and her mother wanted nothing to do with her - but after a few years of trying desperately to escape from any and all stallions, she finally gave up. She has been a mother to four foals [one at age two, another at age three, not bred at age four, another at age five, and another at age six], the second of which died at birth, and the third of which died of sickness when it was only a few months old.

★ History: He grew up with a mother that didn’t want him and a father that loved him to pieces, so always wasn’t sure where he stood. He also observed his father’s gentleness with his mares, and does the same.

She has several scars from her rebelling, and absolutely despises the system and is just waiting for a chance to flee. Her ears are slightly hooked, as she’s half Marwari half Frieab, and she also has a face that’s a mix between the Arab profile and Friesian. 
★ History: Her father ruled over his mares very viciously, hated her, and her mother lived in constant fear of her father. Her mother hardly seemed to know she had a foal, she was so fixated on her situation and wallowing in self pity.

★ History: This is her second year doing this, last year she was chosen by a stallion who didn't care much about her one way or the other, and was set free. Because of this she's rather wary of stallions, but wouldn't be too afraid of them, if not for the way most of the other mares react to stallions.

☆ Nickname: El // N/A
★ Gender: Female // Male
☆ Age: 2 // 3

★ Rank: Mare // Stallion
☆ Desired Rank: None
★ Crush: None as of yet // None as of yet
☆ Family: None
▶▶▶
★ Five Words: Friendly, Bold, Likable, Selfless, Amusing // Insentisive, Charismatic, Intelligent, Ambitious, Trustworthy
☆ Description: Celaena has been blessed with a gorgeous champagne gene from her mother, who was once one of the most fought over mares of her time - only to pass away during a freak storm. Celaena is an almost 15hh Cream Draft/Tennessee Walker Cross, and has a large pink scar due to an ill-fitting muzzle.  // Janus has quite a unique facial marking, which prompted his name. He is a (roughly) 16hh blood bay warmblood with four stockings - the epitome of perfect breeding, bar his facial marking and brand.
☆ History: Celaena, by no means wants to be here - she hates that the mares get no say, and while she wishes she could go unnoticed, she knows that her eye catching colour and desirable genes can easily make her one of the top priorities to any stallion focused on good breeding. She can thank her mother for that - A surprisingly lightweight dun champagne cream draft, infuriatingly only known by the stallions for her genetics, not her personality. Celaena, while not always agreeing with her mother valued that she was a gentle soul, but stood firmly for what she believed in.
☆ Questions/Comments/Concerns: 11/10 gahhhh i remember the old one!!! so good
