Hi! I'm Cain, a proudly LGBTQ+ adult player from England who has had an account on this game for far too long. I work full time as a SEN teaching assistant so don't have nearly the amout of free time I used to, but every so often I drop in, get moderately competitive for a few days and then disappear again. Mostly, I'm here for the nostalgia. I am owned by an orange cat called Sunfyre who I consider to be my son, and live alone with him and a ridiculous amount of books. I have a Masters in English Literature with a focus on ecocritical Gothic literature and have built a collection of LGBTQ+ books that I'm pretty sure deserves a medal. I also enjoy reading and watching fantasy - hence my kitten being named after a fictional dragon - and gaming when I have spare time, with favourites being Stray, Red Dead Redemption 2, both The Last of Us games and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. When I'm not being a mega nerd, I provide respite care to a young boy I work with and try to be a somewhat functioning adult. I was a big part of Howrse's roleplay scene back in the day and occasionally, with the right story, can be moved to write these days.

As I have real life bills to pay and rent is expensive, I'm a mostly non-pass buying player. If I do feel like joining the more competitive side of the game, I tend to focus on Thoroughbreds. I tend to join most promos if I log in in time to see them happening, and occasionally make an attempt to keep my EC running. I also make the odd attempt to finish collections and as of right now have every classic coat! Otherwise, I'm a very casual player and prefer the occasional idle gameplay.
