History: Born to a bay Quarab mare and her dunskin grey Quarab mate, Tama was a happy colt from the moment he first stood. He was happy, curious, and playful. For the most part, his family was content. They never moved around, for his father had his own land, but they lived close to human settlements. This is how he came to be orphaned. Not long after he was weaned, humans came into their land, driving things that smelled like they were burning and that made terrible noise. They captured his father first, forcing him into some terrible metal contraption. Tama was terrified, but was tiring quickly. The humans had come after him, and he was running away when he fell. The human on the machine would have hit him, but his mother bodyslammed it from the side. Her neck was broken instantly. This terrified Tama so badly he ran away, far away from the scene of his mother's death.
Tama ran right into MUSTANG before he rested. And it wasn't so much that he decided to sleep, than he simply fell down in exhaustion. There wasn't much left to the colt. His legs were bruised and swollen, hooves cracked and chipped, and what little meat he had put on was gone. His ribs and hip bones were evident, for he hadn't taken the time to eat. This is where the mare Cicily found him. Already pregnant with her own foal, it didn't matter to her. She decided to take the young colt as her own.
(illegal agreed to have Cicily foster Tama.)
Description: Tama is a dark, dusty bay dun. The eel stripe along his back is obvious, though the barring on his legs and shoulders are difficult to see. He has a white star in the shape of a magatama, and a white sock on his rear right foot. Instead of having black legs, like a normal bay, his legs are only a couple shades darker than the rest of his body. He has slight dappling along his ribs and flank. His eyes are a dark amber color now, but will brighten to golden amber when he is an adult.
