Description My 1st entry for =silverglass19 ’s contest to create a mate and foal for her Bacabello mare, Akhalaia. Check it out here: [link]


If I don't win, I'm keeping them!!


The Stallion:
Name: Mörk-Jor Xuihcoatl
Pronunciation: Mork-Jore Zoo-wee-coat-tul
Meaning: Black Stallion (Mörk-Jor) Fire Serpent, or Weapon of Destruction (Xuihcoatl)
Breed: Pure Bacabello
Color: Black Rouge Bacabello
Age: 57
Tattoo: His tattoo on his belly is the Japanese symbol for horse.
Powers: Immortality
Ability to create control fire
Extreme power. This results in physical strength for Mörk-Jor and also has an effect on the beings around him. All other who are around him for extended periods of time have their powers intensified, and get a ‘hangover’ from power after he leaves.
Personality: Quiet, reserved, antisocial, angry.
Back-Story: Mörk-Jor Xuihcoatl was abandoned as a colt because of his ‘strange’ color and markings. His family had been a long time holder of light-colored ‘classic’ markings, and light coat colors. When they gazed upon the night-black foal, with iridescent red tribal markings, they turned away in disgust and left him lying in the forest glade of his birth. His mother, having to stay a little longer to recover from birthing, gave him two names, something detestable in their family. Sensing his ability to control fire, and his immense power, she named him something that meant ‘Fire Serpent’ as well as ‘Weapon of Destruction.’ Soon after Mörk-Jor’s mother abandoned him for good, the Wild Mare of the forest, drawn to the presence of a new soul in the forest, approached him in his grave state and took pity on him. She extended an act of mercy toward him, nursing him until he was able to be weaned. As the little foal grew, the Wild Mare saw his extremely powerful abilities grow, and desired to use them to her own avail. She left him no choice, and he had no where else to go, so Mörk-Jor served the Wild Mare. She had him do things for her that he refuses to think about. Doing her dirty-work turned Mörk-Jor into an angry, withdrawn, and overall cold stallion. When he finally had enough, he tried to leave the Mare in peace; thanking her for saving his life, but wishing to go his own way. The Wild Mare went into a frenzy, a hangover from being near his power for so long, and attacked him. Mörk-Jor tried to flee, but she persued him wherever he went, and finally, it came to a battle to the death. Being no match for Mörk-Jor’s incredible power, the Wild Mare fell in the same glade where she had saved Mörk-Jor’s life so many years ago. Mörk-Jor went into isolation, hating himself for all the things he had done. One day, while grazing in what was supposed to be an abandoned part of the forest, he heard rustling and turned to look behind him. Using Mörk-Jor’s only weakness (the element of surprise), a wild beast attacked him. Mörk-Jor was still much more powerful than it, but his weakness took effect and left him seriously wounded before the creature was finally defeated. Lying in the grass, Mörk-Jor was positive that his life would be over in a matter of moments. But, to his surprise, a beautiful Bay Cobalt Bacabella approached his heaving body and lay beside him. He closed his eyes, thinking that she would finish him off, but then he felt a strange tingling sensation. Blood rushed through his whole body, making leaving him feeling faint. When he finally mustered the strength to open his eyes, the Bay Cobalt mare was still lying beside him, and his wounds were fully healed. He pulled himself up and looked at her. She smiled and introduced herself as Akhalaia. Mörk-Jor finally realized that it was her who had healed him. They started talking.
A year later, after slowly getting to know one another, and falling in love, they decided to have their own foal. Mörk-Jor’s strange tribal markings have now been passed on to his own offspring, but he can’t say that he’s upset about it.

The Foal:
Name: Aodhagan Malina-Lhûg
Pronunciation: Odd-hog-in Muh-lee-na - Loog
Meaning:
Individually: Tiny Little Fire (Aodhagan), Blue Dragon (Malina-Lhûg)
Put together: Tiny Little Blue Dragon of Fire
Sex: Colt (male)
Color: Chestnut Cobalt Bacabello
Markings: Aodhagan’s markings are the same on both sides. On his back, there is a wing on each side. On his face is a tribal-style Dragon Head. When you look at his straight on, you see the full Dragon head on his face.
Tattoo: This colt will be marked with a tattoo when he is older.
Powers: Immortality, Levitation, Mind Control.
This little colt is extremely intelligent!!
