but I sure can kick your butt any day of the week."
.:Requiem:.
{ Basics }
{ Basics }
Species: Hippogryph (Kiger Mustang X Ferruginous Hawk)
Full Name: Kiger Requiem
Prefers: Authority figures might call her Kiger, but she prefers Requiem
Gender: Mare
Age: 21 years old
Height: 5.8ft
Wingspan: 30.2ft
Theme: Grow Up by Paramore
Voice: Kathleen Zuelch (Agent Texas from Red Vs. Blue)
History: Generally doesn't speak of it. If a close friend was to inquire about her past, she might explain her wing injury, and how she was outcast from her herd due to being seen as a burden, since she couldn't go on hunting patrols, partake in events or learn aerial combat. She might also hint at an ingrained disliking of other hippogryphs for this exact reason- even if they didn't actually do anything to her and have no clue about her injury.

- Reference here -
With the head, torso and wings of a hawk, and the mane, tail, ears and hindquarters of a horse, Requiem is an interesting sight indeed.
Her eyes are those of a raptor, a piercing icy blue which might feel as if they're staring into your very core.
Well feathered and spotty, her body is white with black and rusty orange spots. She has horse-like ears edged in black that are feathered on the outside and furred on the inside. Her forelegs end in talons with large, sharp claws, and she has a large yellow beak tipped in black. Her wings are around 30ft in length, spotted much like her body. Feathers are replaced by tan fur past her stomach, where one can see her horse half- stripy black legs, a black dorsal stripe, grey hooves, and a black tail streaked with dark blue much like her mane.
{ Personality }
Requiem is the sort of creature that has two sides- the side strangers see, and the side friends see.
Generally, Requiem is polite, but sarcastic. She is calculating, and never naive. Everything is to be questioned and little is to be trusted.
Gaining her trust is difficult, but once managed, Requiem can prove to be a great friend. She is extremely loyal and hates to see her friends upset, sometimes even to the point of hunting down whoever or whatever it was that upset them.
Unfortunately, due to an inability to fly (improperly healed wing after an accident of her own fault) and a lack of real "powers", she tends to have a bit of an inferiority complex that can show itself from time to time. To her friends, she'll sometimes exhibit lack of confidence, but to strangers, she has a rebellious and arrogant sort of personality, playing herself up to make up for her weak points.
Across both her true personality and her 'facade,' Requiem is highly curious and enjoys adventuring and exploring. She is also extremely competitive, always striving for #1, but she knows how to accept defeat, despite being a bit of a perfectionist.
Her temper is unmatched but combined with a sort of unflinching calmness, it doesn't show itself easily. She doesn't easily tolerate being disrespected, ignored or mistreated, however.
{ Combat }
- Fight overflight -
Her hooves are her main weapon, as the force they generate can be bone-breaking. Her reflexes are lightning fast, allowing for a quick turn, kick, and run. She's also able to 'cow kick,' in which she kicks out in a forward direction below her belly. Attackers that climb onto her will quickly find themselves being bucked off, or reared and sometimes flipped over onto. Used less often but still just as deadly are her front talons, sharp enough to pierce skin and powerful enough to create deadly vice grips, while being fast enough to strike out quickly and allow her to still run away. Her beak is only used in times of desperation, but it rips and tears flesh easily.
She possesses no magical abilities. Instead, she has enhanced strength, a surprising amount of agility, and is skilled at various defensive and offensive maneuvers. Her downfall is long-range fighting- because she has to get in close to use her hooves or talons, she strictly avoids long range fights.

{ Relations }
No creature in Yugure has thusfar proven themselves worthy of the "friend" title.
Eclipse is considered a close acquaintance.
Valeska, Pitch, Glaber, Katana Prabhu, Chaniboo, and Enoki are uncertainties.
She has no enemies..yet.
Her mind is not clouded with thoughts of romance.
Her family is far, far behind her and they care about it as little as she does.
She looks after no foals, and intends to keep it that way.
-Still largely a work in progress, and will develop as time goes on. Preset to be added later but link above is the gist of it. And yes, that is mine!-
