The Silver Unicorn Welcomes You
I am an adult player. If you are a minor, it is wise to seek your guardian’s advice before PMing me about anything that is not Howrse related.
Hello! I am TheSilverUnicorn.
You may call me by my full title, but Silver or Unicorn or any sensible diminutive thereof may be more comfortable. Some people call me TSU in the forums. I accept all friend requests.
GO HAWKS!!
I don't sell riding horses, draft horses, ponies, unicorns, pegasi, winged unicorns, donkeys, divines, wilds, BMI, or anything else. If you inquire, my answer will always be no, so please put your time and effort toward more fruitful endeavors.
I apologize for my prolonged absences. Messages are automatically deleted after four weeks. Sometimes, I vanish without warning for five, six, or even ten weeks at a time because real world obligations take precedence in my life. That said, I do read and respond to every friendly message I see. If you don't hear back from me, it probably just means that I did not see it. If you suspect that you messaged me during an absence and it was deleted before I returned, please try again. I appreciate all of the wonderful people at Howrse, including YOU!
I am one of the least competitive players around.
However, I am very interested in breeding just about everything. I am
currently focused on the horses under my "The Silver Unicorns" and "Active" tabs. My life in the real world wavers between varying degrees of
stress, sometimes quite intense. I refuse to entertain an ounce of it
here. My primary goal at Howrse is to relax while listening to my
favorite music. That's easy to do when I am not competitive. Yes, I do hoard foals. Why? Because they're so very cute! Yes, I will let most of them grow up eventually, but I'll never stop collecting them. They're just so very cute!
Princess Peanut was the first foal I bred. She was born from my stallion, Rakkas, and my mare, Silverwater, in September of 2008. She has been a foal ever since. So she shall remain forever.
♫Silver Siren Song♫ was bred by me from a stallion and mare owned by me.
She was trained entirely by me from foal games to old age.
She has won over 6,800 show jumping competitions and earned more than 807,000e in winnings so far.
She is currently ranked #32 for show jumping horses of every breed in the Victory Ranking.
She has won more show jumping competitions than any other purebred Arabian Horse on the entire International Server.
To put that in perspective, she is ranked #32 out of 11,770,984 horses in general and #1 out of 1,582,503 purebred Arabians in particular, for show jumping victories!
Even more impressive, she has been the top ranked purebred Arabian for show jumping victories for a few years! That’s not bad for a casual player!
She also sports the beautiful blue pegasus coat by wahooey, Winged Wonder, (retired with 73 copies left; only available on the International server) but I like the old picture of her, too.
She continues to collect several first place wins every day.
She is an outrageous champion, especially considering that she only has 1210.56 skills and regularly competes against horses that are highly skilled.
How far will she go?
On October 18, 2010, the stallion Rocket To The Moon ranked first in jumping skills among all purebred Paint Horses on Howrse.
He was nearly 20 points ahead of the horse in the second position.
The horse in the second position was the merest fraction of a point ahead of the horse ranked third.
The horse in third was a merest fraction of a point ahead of the horse in fourth.
As you can see, the trend continued along all of the top rankings.
Hence, Rocket To The Moon flies above and beyond all others. He was trained entirely by me from foal games to fully BLUPed and bolded.
Rocket To The Moon is also one of my favorite stallions.
Feel free to PM me for a private covering. The stud fee is 500e. On November 18, 2010, Rocket To The Moon was still the top ranked purebred Paint Horse in jumping!
I figured he would remain in the rankings for a few days before being pushed out of the top 20, as I am not an elite player and I rarely breed Paint Horses.
I was shocked to see him hold the spot for a month, and that he outranked the horse under him by 10 points.
He ended up holding the highest position for more than two months.
C'mon, elite breeders!
Were you even trying?
(I want a Vintage Apple so that I can make Sundance look like this again. GOT ONE!! )

About Me
You’ve scrolled down this far! Impressive! Perhaps you want to know more about me?
I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area in California. Since California is home to most of my best childhood memories, I have made ☼California☼ my personal brand for this game.
I am an artist. I used oil pastels to create the art for my coat, Frolicking Iridescence (detail from Frolicking Iridescence 2) and the banner I use to sign guest books ( Spring Thaw). I own the copyrights, so do not use them without my permission. My artwork has been published and professional prints are available from elsewhere on the internet. I also work with colored pencils, ink, and graphite. I am also a writer. I have several works in progress. Lately, I have been very focused on a novel featuring cats, fairies, and rainy weather. With luck, it will be the first one I publish. If I'm not on Howrse, at work, or asleep, then I'm probably working on my novel.
Here are some other random facts about me. My favorite colors are blue and silver, but I love to wear green. My favorite singers include Simone Simons, Floor Jansen, Tarja Turunen, Anette Olzon, Marco Hietala, Sarah Brightman, Tony Kakko, Loreena McKennitt, Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Lori Lewis, Renee Fleming, Bryn Terfel, Josh Groban, Maria Callas, and Andrea Bocelli. Aretha Franklin makes my soul sing. I still love Nirvana after all these years. Chris LeDoux, Adriane Buckaroogirl, and Brenn Hill inspire my imagination. And U2 will always be one of my favorite bands! In other words, I am passionate about music and my tastes are quite eclectic! I am an avid reader! My favorite author is Neil Gaiman. I also love to read the classics. I read some comics, mangas, and graphic novels, too, but I am very selective. I love horseback riding, but have only been in the saddle three times in the last fifteen years. I adore Mexican food, sushi, and gourmet hamburgers, but my ultimate comfort food is a tossed green salad. I used to cosplay at major anime conventions in California, Washington, and Idaho. I was even part of an award winning cosplay group. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to keep up with the cosplay scene anymore. I love taking long walks around my neighborhood and often hike into the forest. I love walking in the rain with an umbrella! Fortunately, I currently live in a very rainy part of the world. My favorite horse movies are The Black Stallion, The Black Stallion Returns, National Velvet, Hidalgo, Into The West, and Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken. I don’t watch very much television because I prefer to read or watch movies, but I love Once Upon A Time, Star Trek: The Next Generation, LOST, Frasier, Little House on the Prairie, Vikings and Firefly. (Yes, I’m a Browncoat!) My favorite animes are Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherood, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Tenchi Universe, Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Wolf's Rain, and Serial Experiments Lain. Most of my favorite video games are from the Final Fantasy series. I also play Star Stable Online, where I am currently level 17 and rapidly approaching 18. My favorite animals are horses, cats, bats, wolves, lions, tigers, and orcas.
WOW! You made it all the way to the bottom! Congratulations! If you have similar interests, feel free to PM me. I accept all friend requests. Please, be patient. I rarely answer PMs in a very timely manner.
