The History
Basic History: Maria was born and raised for the first few years of her life in Spain, later being taken to Germany where Theodore bought her at a horse auction for his birthday.
The minute he saw her being paraded around the arena Theodore fell in love and he knew thathe had to have her, no matter what the cost may be.
He's still in debt from the bidding war he got into with a woman, but thankfully her original owner has allowed him to slowly pay him back for the mare over time, as long as she went to a good home with someone who would love her and utilize her skills rather than just use her as a brood mare.

Paradise Lost

[/center]

The Basics
Show Name:Paradise Lost
Barn Name:Michael
Age:7
Gender: Gelding
Breed: Lusitano/Lipizzaner
Breed Registry:N/A

The Appearance
Coat Color:Gold bay
Stable Color: Cadetblue
Height:15.3hh

The Personality
Personality: Just because Michael's been gelded, doesn't necessarily mean that he's lost that fire, hard headed attitude that most stallions have. Though he's calmed down greatly, he still has times where he decides to be stubborn and snippy with both other horses and his handlers. Michael can definitely be categorized as a problem horse, but that doesn't make him a lost cause. He shows great potential and a strong desire to learn.
Caution Around: Some other horses and flocks of birds.

The History
Basic History: Michael is basically a stolen horse.
During Theodore and Adiel's traveling about they met the young stallion when Adiel went to apply for a job working as a groom in at the stables of a Lipizzaner breeder. Most of the horses were in great shape. Strong, healthy and well cared for.
However after wandering the property while his brother spoke with the owner, Theo found a small, almost dilapidated barn at the back side of the property. Inside Michael stood in almost a foot of waste beside the body of another long dead horse (possibly his mother). The neglect was horrible, Michael had been left so hungry that she had resorted to eating the rotten wood of the structure he was trapped in.

Adiel and Theo tried to call authorities about the stallion, but when they were told it would take up to a week for officers to come and check out the situation, the two decided they couldn't wait. That night they drove their tuck and trailer through the back of the property and managed to get the scared horse inside before simply driving off.
The stable's owner was arrested and charged four days later when police finally did arrive.
