Open Facts: Sawyer has always had a very deep passion for leading. When he was a young foal and living with his family’s herd, he would always gather all of the fillies and pretend that he was their leader, he would even fight the rival colts and protect them like they were his own. His family thought it was rather cute to see how prevailing he was even at such a young age. Later on in his life he managed to branch out and get a nice herd of his own. He now leads a decent sized group of Timber Horses called the “Sentence” herd, it's not that big of a herd, especially for one containing nothing but Timbers, but it will do for him.
-Sawyer does at times, get full of himself, and will always try to show up the younger horses. He seems to greatly dislike opposition and doesn’t do well to any form of criticism. This is a horse that does not enjoy being proven wrong or contested against.
-His movement is very swift and very sound. He is by far the most agile of horses at the Sentence herd. They all lookup to him with great respect and admiration for his skills and ability to do most anything at any given time.
-His most prominent feature is his knowledge and cunningness. He is very sharp and things don’t often get past him. It’s very difficult to outwit him, he is clever and can easily see through others lies and deceit.

Private facts: Upon first glace, Sawyer seems like just your average Timber Horse, but to wise older horses like Magnum, Sawyer is nothing but sheer tribulation and the main reason why few to this day be keen on the Timber Horse breed. It’s horses like Sawyer, who were the Timber’s initials, that caused the great disaster for the normal lives of horses back in the early days of Los Lobos. Timber Horses were known for being highly aggressive and possessive over mates, land and forage, and this made it extremely difficult for others who were not of their breed to thrive and survive here. Horses were chased away from their own land and made inferior to the now superior Timber Horses, many normal lives were lost due to starvation and lack of land due to all of the exiles made by those of the Timber breed. They became hated for what they did to the normal breeds just because they were stronger and nearly impossible to beat. Many unnecessary clashing disputes erupted between the Timbers and the normal breeds of Los Lobos. It grew so horrendous, that all had nearly given up hope for a future, but in then end it was Sawyer and Magnum that stood against each other, it was only through the brave proposal on Magnum’s behalf that Sawyer saw the wrong in the Timber’s ways and let go of all the bitterness, and just as soon as the wars began, they ended all the same. However, Timber Horses of today do not usually partake in normal gatherings or common horse herds, they are very tightly bound to their own kind and do not relish mingling in with common horses that are not of their own breed. Even half Timber Horses are known to be a terrible disgrace to their kind and are looked down on as pure filth.
-Sawyer in the past had commitment issues and at first was afraid to lead his own herd, but with flying colors he did it successfully and is now thriving like the bold leader that he always dreamed he would be. Although, he does tend to make rather rash decisions and his often acts of impulse can lead his herd into some dangerous encounters.

Character info: Overall, Sawyer is very protective over his herd, he is social and very outgoing. He does have a slight temper, but then again, what Timber Horse doesn’t? His personality is friendly, but cautious.
-He might come off a bit sarcastic upon first meeting, but it’s just how he is. He means nothing by it.
-His voice seems deep, so he comes off a little brash, too. But again, it’s just how he is. A little rough around the edges type of guy.
-Nobility and honor is something he strongly believes in. He is quite proud of his race and will do anything to prove his worth in the eyes of others, whether they care or not.

mmm, i love Sawyer! x33 such a sexy boy!
you changed his facial markings, i like it! (i think i prefer the old though :3) but my little Bausch has his previous marking, so i'm contented! x3

it's crazy how similar Bausch acts like his daddy, and i didn't even know the full depth of Sawyer's personality! :la: i'd love to draw them together, if i may? :meow:
