Rules and Information for the Witch's Herd

[Peregrine]

Rules

* Don't challenge me, dudes. It really ruins my day.
* Challenges for my position in the herd will result in your public humiliation. What I do with you afterwards depends on what kind of mood I'm in.
* Be on the best behavior your grandma could have hoped for when King Felix is around. Don't sass him either. I think sass is funny, he doesn't.
* I wouldn't say, "my word is law", but you should probably listen to me.
* If you're going to break the law, don't get caught.
* Under no circumstances will foals harmed in any way. Failure to protect a foal in the face of danger shall be meant with the swiftest and harshest retributions in my power.

These rules are all in-character, by the way.

Information

* Mountainside Forest was all but untouched by the humans when they lived here. They believed that it was infested by werewolves and ruled over by a witch. Although I've personally never encountered a werewolf or a witch, the legends live on and that is why we are called "The Witch's Herd".

* There is small river, little more than a brook running down the mountainside that is the water source for our herd. You are advised to be careful wherever you go: we do live on a mountain and the ground is treacherous and you will not be the first horse to fall and break a leg if you don't watch your hooves.
