About Me
23 years on this Earth.
(she/her)
Hello there! I'm a Danish player returning to Howrse after what must be a few years' absence at this point. I used to play on the Danish server as a kid/young teen and later switched over here - and now I'm back and ready to hop into international waters with the rest of you.
When I don't play around with the statistics of digital horses, I work on getting my bachelor's degree in biology. And when studying becomes too much, I spend my time playing D&D, drawing, writing, and obsessing over all of my favourite movies, series, and books.
This uncludes, but is not limited to:
- The Witcher
- Mostly the games and books. Don't know what on Earth Netflix is doing, but it ain't good.
- I have a tattoo of the swords and signs from the "Wild Hunt" game :)
- My profile pic is a cut-out of a piece of fanart I made
- Red Dead Redemption
- Especially the second game
- Arthur Morgan is my wife, actually
- Arcane
- Viktor nation... how we doing?
- Lord of the Rings
- A classic. I need not elaborate
- Doctor Who
- Probably my all-time favourite show
- The inspiration for my username
- "Priory of the Orange Tree" by Samantha Shannon
- I will never stop recommending this book to anyone who even remotely enjoys fantasy
- Hannibal (NBC)
- Came for Mads Mikkelsen, stayed for the cannibal jokes
- The Hunger Games
- Currently reading the books for the first time. Obsessed
As I mentioned, I enjoy to draw and write. I made my profile pic and the header at the top of my presentation myself :)
If you want to check out some of my work, you can find me

I'm always open for a chat and up for accepting friend requests. I try to help out during events when I can! I also try to reciprocate whenever someone congratulates me :)

My Game
Breeding
When I've played in the past, I've usually stuck to focusing most of my efforts on 4-5 Riding Horse breeds and 2-3 Pony breeds.
Now, I've instead chosen to focus on optimizing any riding horse, pony or draft horse breed I want to perform the best in whichever competition-type fits their genetic makeup best.
I like collecting things, so I've decided not to limit myself breed-wise lol
I train every horse until they have 100 BLUP before breeding them. The only exceptions to this rule are donkeys and filler horses.
Western Riding Competitions
Barrel Racing
Stamina // Speed // Gallop
- Marwari: One of my favourite breeds to work with. I don't know why, but I've been drawn to them every time I've played this game.
- Ban'ei Horse: I'm only just starting up with these guys, but I'll be breeding some proper champions soon enough.
Cutting
Stamina // Speed // Dressage
- Kerry Bog: I'm not taking the breeding of these incredibly seriously yet, but we'll get there before long.
Trail Class
Dressage // Trot // Jumping
- Knabstrupper: A definite favourite breed of mine. Love to work with them, and it doesn't hurt that the breed originates in Denmark :)
Reining
Stamina // Dressage // Gallop
- I haven't found a breed for this competition type yet
Western Pleasure
Stamina // Dressage // Trot
- Freisian: Another favourite breed of mine. There's just something so incredibly alluring about their look.
- Shire: A project breed. I'm having fun with slowly building up the GP of my shires
Classic Riding Competitions
Trot
Speed // Dressage // Trot
- French Trotter: Seems like the obvious choice, no? ;P
Gallop
Speed // Dressage // Gallop
- Thoroughbred: Another breed I have an unexplainable soft spot for. They're just easy to work with and I think it might have been my starter breed in one of my earlier games.
Dressage
Dressage // Gallop // Trot
- Lusitano: My starter breed. Having a lot of fun with these.
Cross Country
Stamina // Dressage // Jumping
- Connemara: Project breed. Slowly working my way towards foals with a good Genetic Potential
- Vanner: I was lucky enough to get my hands on a colt with wonderful stats early on in my game. I'll be using him to start out my own production of high GP Vanners
Show Jumping
Speed // Dressage // Jumping
- KWPN: Pretty sure buying one of these bad boys was one of the starter objectives.
Affixes
I'll be using my affixes to categorise my production based on Genetic Potential rather than breed. Late on, I imagine I'll probably make seperate affixes for divines, unicorns, donkeys and draft horses, but for now, I'll be focusing on dividing by GP.
All the names of my affixes will take inspiration from my home country of Denmark and/or Norse mythology.
The Affixes:
My first affix. All non-divine riding horses, ponies and draft horses produced by me with a Genetic Potential below 20.000. Later on, most of these will be auctioned off from birth.
An affix for every non-divine horses, ponies and draft horses produced by me with a Genetic Potential between 20.000 and 24.999. For now I'm keeping most foals that fit within this affix, but I imagine I'll be selling most of the colts off soon enough.
Vesterhavsrytterne
Translation: "Riders of the Western Sea"
An affix for every riding horse producd by me with a Genetic Potential between 25.000 and 28.999.
Translated: "Fenrir's Tooth"
This will include the Riding Horses I produce with a genetic potential of 29.000 and above.
This will include all the unicorns I produce.
Fra Valhals Sale
Translated: "From the Halls of Valhalla"
This will include all my divines.
Selling and Buying
Generally, most horses with the affix "Made in Denmark" are up for sale. If one of them catch your eye, feel free to throw me a message and we'll probably be able to figure something out.
The only ones that I absolutely do not want to part with are my starters:
Spirit and
Rain (I'm sentimental lol)
Horses with the affix "Fenris' Tand" are not for sale <3
I'm not currently looking to buy unless I seek the horse out myself.
