Nice post Elempi and Folwren! I'm glad that Rowenna was convinced to stay, you two have really don a brilliant job with the whole situation.

My post is up for Lithor, so the horse race can begin whenever we feel like it.

Erbrand stands at 6'3". His legs are muscular, much more so than his arms, and can move fast, although his endurance is his strong point. His long legs hinder him from doing well in a sprinting match, but drive on in a steady fury in a distance race. For the short race I'd give him +2, and for the furlong race I'd give him +5.
