Equus & Cervidae Razorus ~ Main Thread
Deep In The Forest...

2v0et8p.jpg
The screeching sound of metal on metal echoes amongst the trees. In a grassy clearing, titans are dueling. The ground shakes and a squeal fills the air, soon followed by the tangy metalic scent of blood. Welcome the Razor Horse.
Updates!

As of November 29th 2016, Sales have reopened!

In July of 2016, the Equus Razorus Custom Decor was released! Check it out!

Hello everyone! As of 12/13/15 Cervidae Razorus are being introduced!

Feel free to chat here!
What is a "Equus Razorus"?

igaoll.jpg.
Aptly named the Razor Horse, these gigantic beasts are anything but "gentle giants". These strange equines come equipt with an arsonal unique all to them. Blades, yes, blades, protruding from their massive bodies. Razor horses are becoming exceedingly rare, as they are prized for their colorful furs and, above all, their weirdly metalic colored bones. Their "blades" are simply weponized bones showing threw their skin, just like the antlers of a deer. Every bone in there body is a shiny silver, and twice as strong as any other creature's. The outer layer however is soft, making it perfect for carving delicate designs. A typical male stands atleast 24 hands tall, whilst females atleast 22. Each have a bladed snout, tail, all four legs and a hard plate over their upper backs. They come in every color imaginable, though it's been noted they often have "danger" colors, like that of poisonous snakes. The short mane-like fur running down their spines, belly and chests never grows long, and is usually double, if not tri-colored.
Razor horses are extreamly agressive and inteligent. It's a well known fact it's nearly impossible to keep them fenced in, but they are feircly loyal once tamed. In the wild they form herds just like all other kinds of horses, with a domanant mare ruling over a bunch of mares and a stallion to tag along. They use their sharp blades when competing intruders for mates or fighting off foes.
What is a "Cervidae Razorus"?

A Cervidae Razorus is a hybrid of Equus Razoruses and Caribou. Although more fragile and deer-like in appearance, these beast are still referred to as horses. Created in a science lab, there was no real purpose behind the species mixing other than testing to see how easily Equuses would breed. When the foals became a hit with the public, it was decided the genetic engineering would continue.
Cervidae differ from Equus in many ways. They lack the spinal mane, head blade, tail blade, dorsal pad, and fur tufts. They are shorter, less stocky, and alot leaner with huge singled toed hooves. Unlike Equus, which are born with spongy soft blades, Cervidae grow into their antlers like caribou. The roundedness of the antlers are gone, replaced by flat, razor sharp horns. These horns grow very large, and are often hooked on both ends. Stallions have two small super sharp prongs on each foot, while females have blades only on their hind feet. Both genders have thick soft manes as well as antlers, but female Cervidae often have smaller racks.
While Cervidae are noted to have duller coat colors than Equuses, they make up for it with attitude. These hybrids are twice as likely to gore you (or rather slice/chop you) to death than the more calm Equus. They are also about 6-7 hands shorter than Equuses, measuring in at about 21 hands high. Cervidae are just as rideable as Equus, if not more so. Unlike other hybrids, these beasts can reproduce on their own. When bred back to Equuses, the resulting foal will likely loose all Cervidae qualities. But, there's also a chance it will keep them or have more combined parts.
How I get one?

1zbdvd3.jpg
Every so often, a few of these equines are rounded up and sold. From there, they can be obtained in these ways...

¤Straight from the wild~ Horses are brought to a sales ring fresh out of the woods and auctioned off. Click here to visit the sales ring!

¤Raffles or Contests~ Horses are kept as a prize for completing whatever action is needed.

¤Breeding~ CLICK HERE to go to the breeding thread. (It's complicated CURRENTLY CLOSED)
Stats Can Earn You Money

Just like LioDen, the higher the stats the more money you can make

How Horses Obtain Stats
*Horses that are captured from the wild are given 10 Stats in the owner's selected criteria.
*Horses that are bred receive the stats of their parents combined.
*Custom bought horses are given 30 Stats in the owner's selected criteria.
***A limited amount of Stats can bought and added to horse's criteria bars. The information can be found in the breeding thread.

Stat Criteria Levels
There are 6 criteria bars for horses to earn stats in.
Here is an example that also shows the types of criteria.

Stamina: 10
Strength: 10
Speed: 10
Agility: 10
Intelligence: 10

A horse with the given example would have 50 Stats.

Beauty, The Exclusive 6th Stat
Above there are only 5 criteria shown, though there is a 6th. Beauty Stats are obtained only by public voting. These stats are shown by numbers like the others stats. The number is how many votes the horse received. The highest winning horse of each public vote will earn their owner a beetle prize!

Other Competitions
Other kinds of competitions will be held recommending the other 5 Stats, these too will earn the owner money!
Are there currently any for sale?

CLICK HERE to go to the sales thread. Here auctions, raffles, flatsales and contests take place!

The Stables!


Wanna browse horses for breeding or just look for fun? Well CLICK HERE to visit the stables! There you can find males, females, and foals!
The Tack Shop

Wow, this is one weird tack shop! There's no tack in it! A woman sits behind the counter, knitting a very long, beautiful scarf. There are many decorative items around the store for horses - scarves, mane tassels, leggings, stockings, even silver bracelets for the legs & tails of the horses. You spot a beautiful silky bridle on a plastic horse head, alongside many others of the same kind in many different shades. Lastly, you spot a wooden sign that says "We offer freeze branding". Oh, how comforting.

If you'd like any sort of decor for your horse, talk to me about it! I will not do tack, except broad banded silky halter-like hacks. PM me or post here!
Closing

Thanks for reading, feel free to track this thread!

I love this idea, eep! ;o;
May I ask, though: I saw a sales thread for some babs and it said they can make beetles for you; is that just talking about stud fees or something else? c:

Suggestions for Raffle

Mutations
- Blind
- Overgrown teeth ( could look like fangs )
- Missing Blades ( perhaps they don't have the blade on the tail, face, legs, etc. Also, they don't have to be missing all three they could just be missing one ).
- Overgrown blades
- Albino
- Missing fur tufts
- Glowing ( it can happen but it's not natural. Just google "glowing rabbits" )
- Big ears ( like a donkey! )
- Dwarfism
- Foal does not grow up
- Missing or twisted limbs
- Wings
- Antler blades
- Uni-blade ( kinda like a unicorn )
- More than four legs
- More than one tail
- Scales

Series/Themes
- Seasons
- Biomes ( ex - deep sea, forest, desert, rain forest, etc. )
- Astronomy ( nebula, stars, galaxies, etc. )
- Astrology ( zodiac perhaps? )
- Historical ( Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, Aztec Empire, Rome, etc. )
- Mythical creatures
- Paranormal/Si-fi ( Ghost, zombie, vampire, etc. )
- Seven virtues
- Seven sins
- Evil/darkness
- Good/light
- Elements ( fire, water, earth, wind, lightning, etc. )
- Mother Nature
- Father Time

Profit
- Prettiest Horse: People vote for the prettiest horse and the owner of the winner gets the prize money. The prize money can come from entry fees, left over money from raffles or both. This could be open to the public or private ( note, owners cannot vote for their own horse ).
- Horse Competition: The horses go head to head to win competitions ( show jumping, halter, cross country, etc. ) for prize money/stat points. This is how it could work ( none of this is set in stone however) , let's say each horse is born with 10 stat points ( mutations could change this though ) in Stamina, Strength, Agility, Speed, Beauty, Intelligence, or whatever else you choose. For each competition certain stats will matter more ( ex - In Cross Country Agility and Stamina would matter more than Beauty ) and based off of this a winner is chosen. People can boost their horse's stats by winning competitions, contests, raffles, or by buying stat points ( or items that give stat points. )

I know that keeping all of the votes ( Prettiest Horse ) and Stat Points ( Horse Competition ) could be complicated but I'm sure with a good spreadsheet it would be much similar to handle. Also, to limit people on winning everything you could put a limit on how many times someone could win, or put a limit on how many stat boosting items a person could buy.

If I have anymore ideas I'll be sure to post them ( if that is allowed ). :)
