As you pull up the long, paved drive, you see a small creek running alongside you, and many trees lining the private drive. A willow reaches toward you, and beyond its leaves is a beautiful, impeccable stable. Its yard is neat and tidy, and horses in paddocks graze lazily in the warm sunshine.
One of the stable hands comes out of the large stables, and waves a welcome to you. The stable hand then comes to a halt next to your car and invites you to have a look around the yards. As you scan the area, you see quite a few people bustling around the stables; horses being led in, horses being turned out, and others still being ridden in various large arenas.
After leaving your car, you then walk toward the large stable entrance, and enter through the spacious doorway. Clean, roomy stalls line the inside of the large stables, and sunlight filters in through multiple sunroofs. A few of the horses not at pasture stick out their heads and quietly neigh to you in greeting.
After petting a few of the horses, the stable hand then proceeds to guide you to the large, green pastures, and smiles.
"Welcome to Aelwen Stables."
---------
Aelwen Stables was established in the late 1800s, early 1900s. It was established by Sir Aiden Dillingham from England, and is still currently owned by a descendant of Sir Aiden himself. In Aelwen's hay-day, the stables were known as some of the best in the country. Home to World Champion equines and riders alike, Aelwen has permanently placed its name in the history books. The stable isn't as 'top-class' as it used to be, but it's still considered a 'top of the line' stable. Many a champion has come from a humble beginning at Aelwen. The stables are located in rural Pennsylvania, where there's plenty of 'equine approved' acreage and trails. Earlier in the year, it was being renovated to accommodate larger numbers of horses and people, and cleaned up a bit as well. Most of the old structure still stands; only a small part of the east and west wings were added on to, and the indoor arena was also renovated to insure a structurally secure building.

Current Plot~
After some time being renovated, Aelwen Stables has reopened its doors. Old friends have returned, along with plenty of new ones as well. Aelwen has been established as one of the top horse-training stables in the state in all disciplines. So more and more expensive horses are being boarded here.
It's the beginning of show season, and everyone is getting ready for their first show. Various trainers are being hired to train both horses and riders. A new show-jumping champion is beginning to shine, but will this horses' shine fade away all too soon? Only time will tell...
* This is a unique equine/human RPG. Both the humans AND horses can talk, so it's like 2 RPGs in one! (Obviously, only the horses can understand each other when they speak, and vice-versa for the humans.)
* An Intermediate-Advanced RPG! No piddly one-liners allowed. ;]
* Various boards to roleplay in!
* Staff tryouts are now underway! (please don't join the
RPG just for a staff position.)
* And much more!
(Since this is a relatively new RPG, there aren't many members yet, and therefore the board can't be guaranteed to be extremely active for the moment. That's why we need you to join!)
