Foals & Ageing:
Every foals age one year after one full rotation of the seasons, or 56 days. Foals will grow until they are 3 years old, then they are adults. Adult horses, however, do not age.

Seasons:
In the horse world, there are four seasons. The game starts in season #1, or Winter, and the rotation goes like this:

Each season lasts 30 days. (If you weren't on durring foaling season and your character is in foal, you'll have to wait till next foaling season or PM me and ask permission for your mare to foal out of season.

Season #1- Winter: In this season there is no breeding, and the temperatures are colder throughout the horse world. Foaling is not done either. Foals are in great danger of catching a sickness, and cougars are rare.

Season #2- Spring, or Breeding Season: This is the season where all horses can go to Breeding Fields to breed. There is no foaling though, and cougars become more popular. The risk of catching a sickness goes down majorly.

Season #3- Summer: In this season the temperatures are much warmer, and the risk of cougar attack is very high. The risk of catching a sickness is very low, but bees, and stinging bugs are much more popular.

Season #4- Fall, or Foaling Season: In this season all the mares will go to Foaling grounds to have their foals. Temperatures become more moderate, and the risk of catching a sickness goes up a little. Cougar attacks go down slightly, but not much.

Breeding & Foaling:

Breeding:

A stallion and mare may decide they want a foal. When they do, they may only breed during the Breeding Season, after Season #1. The mares will then remain in foal until Foaling Season comes, two seasons later after Season #3. When they decide to breed, they would go to Breeding Grounds. You can be Detailed if you like.


Foaling:


When Foaling Season comes around, and a mare is ready to give birth, they would go to Foaling Grounds. There she would have her foal. You may choose to have another person roleplay the foal, or you may do it yourself.

Mares:
Before mares take a stallion, they would live in Spirited Springs, in the stallion side. Once a stallion takes them, they may go live with their stallion in their territory, or on Talupa Lakes, where mare and stallion couples without territory live. Mares can not claim territory. If a stallion dies, the mare may keep the territory of her dead mate, and may fight a stallion to keep control of it. Remember, you're not immortal, so please die when the occasion calls for it.

Stallions:
Only stallions may claim territory, and take mares. When a stallion decides he wants a mare, he may simply go to Spirited Springs on the mare side, where all stallionless mares live. From there, after the mare says she'll go with him, he may take her back to his territory. Before a stallion claims a territory, or a takes on a mare, he will live in Spirited Springs on the stallion side. If he still does not own territory, but has a mare, he would like on Talupa Lakes, where mare and stallion couples live.

Using the different territories/lands:
When having your horse go from one place to another, you have to make a new forum in each of those places. In one place you could say something like: So, they headed towards *Place Name*, and then make a new topic in that place and say something like:When they arrived in the lands...and continue it from there. Then, you would just say you're going back to the place you came from or what not, and continue where you left off in the first one.

Claiming/fighting for land:
To claim land you may simply post a topic in the territory and announce that your stallion has claimed. To fight another stallion for his land, just simply make your stallion go to the territory and announce that he is going to fight the stallion for his land.
Note:You may only have four of your stallions own land for now.
