However, this description fails to capture the [b]RAW ANIMAL MAJESTY[/b] that is Horse's existence. If Horse were a person, he'd be, like, some super ripped hot guy with long flowing hair, a flawless tan, and his shirt would be unbuttoned to halfway down his chest at all times and probably also he would be called Fabio.

Thus, it can only be taken as a paragon of it's species and all behaviors it exhibits totally natural. He is also an avid mahjong player for unknown reasons. [b]Personality:[/b] Horse is the [i]ultimate alpha male[/i], a creature composed entirely of [b]testosterone[/b] and [b]raw, nonstop aggression[/b]. Though it understands the languages of both humans and fishmen, he [b]pays no heed[/b] to the petty laws of these lesser creatures. Horse believes, nay, it [i]knows[/i] that it is exemplar of all beasts, that which is first under earth and heaven. Horse, however, understands that such a [b]perfect[/b] creature must obviously help those lesser than itself, so that they may better understand it's [b]brilliance[/b] and in doing so better themselves. [b]History:[/b] Gaze upon this most perfect of God's creatures and weep, for he is the last of his kind upon the Four Blues. These [b]brilliant[/b], [i][b]noble[/b][/i] creatures were hunted to the brink of extinction for their [b]mouth-wateringly delicious[/b] flesh and use as [b]novelty sleeping bags[/b]. Driven from their ancestral spawning grounds, they formed a great school and traveled across the oceans in search of a new home. Without a true home, however, their numbers slowly dwindled away, falling prey to massed attacks by lesser wildlife such as dolphins and hippos. Things were looking bleak for these [b]shining exemplars[/b] of fish- and horse-hood. Then, one day, a great storm like none had ever seen before formed over the West Blue, leveling entire islands in it's wake. Great currents came and went like the wind, and none were safe from the sea's [b]wrathful embrace[/b]. Young Horse was one of the lucky ones, taking cover in a convenient shoal until the storm passed. When he awoke the next day to find himself the sole survivor, all his kinsmen either dead or vanished along with the storm. Horse searched the Four Blues high and low for his kind, and after three years he could only come to one conclusion: His kind were either extinct, or had been [b]flung gracelessly[/b] into the depths of the Grand Line itself. No matter how strong he was, none could break through the Calm Belt alone, not even a creature as [b]noble[/b] and [b]pure[/b] as himself. Thus, it stood to reason that he must grace a crew of lesser creatures with his presence, and thus obtain passage into the Grand Line. [center][h3][b]Combat Specialties[/b][/h3][/center] [b]Skills and Abilities:[/b] The Sea Horse has the notable ability to swallow just about anything it can fit inside it's mouth, then spit it up later in perfect condition. Uniquely, and possibly because they are the largest known Sea Horses, there does not seem to be any noted limit to the total capacity of a Greater Ridgeback Sea Horse's stomach, either in mass or volume. Sea Horses are also amphibious, and possess powerful legs and tails. Horse also has the inexplicable ability to do chores but only when nobody is looking. Horse does not speak vocally, but communicates with lesser creatures using his [i][b]raw animal charisma[/b][/i] and complex body language. [b]Devil Fruit:[/b] N/A [b]Haki:[/b] N/A [b]Gear:[/b] Whatever Horse can fit in it's mouth [b]Fighting Style:[/b] Horse fights primarily with kicks, tail slaps, trampling, and projectile vomiting. [b]Techniques:[/b] [i][b]Iipeikou:[/b][/i] Horse vomits forth a coherent beam of seawater that propels people and objects away with great force. [i][b]Ippatsu:[/b][/i] Horse spits a stinging, burning substance into his opponent's eyes to blind and distract them. This is usually followed up by repeated hoof blows to the face and/or ribs. [i][b]Houtei Raoyui:[/b][/i] Horse simply swallows an opponent whole. Nobody can ever completely remember what a Sea Horse looks like on the inside, but it's apparently quite traumatizing. A pirate's life for me [/hider]
