Registered Name: Little Jim
Call Name: Jimmie
Breed: Percheron
Appearance: Names can be deceiving and never has a horse been more inappropriately named. Standing a freakish nineteen hands he looks perfect next to his six foot three owner. A good many people always do a double take when they pass the horse and some of the grooms can be scared of him. He is by no means vicious, but an animal that weighs two thousand five hundred pounds can be quite scary to a lot of people. His coat is a handsome grey, though he appears white in bright light. He has dapples, but they aren't instantly noticed until the horse turns in just the right light and then the dappling is very much apparent. Overall he is a handsome horse, though one must be careful in handling an animal so large.
Age: twelve years
Gender: gelding
Training: Jimmie is broken to ride and is quite comfortable under saddle, though being so large a traditional saddle won't work so the ridiculously huge saddle in the tack room? Yeah, that would be Jimmie's. He is also trained to pull a wagon or cart.
Quirks: Despite his huge size Jimmie is pretty easy to work with if one knows his weakness: bananas. The horse loves anything and everything to do with bananas whether it be an actual banana or a flavored treat he just can't get enough. But be careful if you get to near with anything banana scented as you'll have two and a half thousand pounds of horse all over you, quite literally.
Vices: Jimmie's a really sweet and affectionate horse if one gives him the chance. The only problem is Jimmie doesn't seem to realize he weighs over a ton and therefore it is easy for a nudge by Jimmie to shove a smaller person to the ground. Normally though he causes no harm as he's learned to remember how big he is.
Jimmie has an interesting problem that can turn quite nauseating. Flatulence is the technical term for his little condition, but most know it as farting. And he does it a lot, but who really is going to stop him?
History: Jimmie was born twelve years ago on a draft horse farm outside of New York. Both of his parents were large former cart horses that used to be used to cart loving couples and tourists around Central Park. When Jimmie turned three he began his cart training and after two years of ensuring he was calm enough to not freak out he was allowed to drive his first couple around New York City. For the next seven years he was used as a cart horse, but when the people that owned the cart company shut down due to financial problems he was put up for sale. When a freakishly tall young man showed up they knew they'd found the perfect owner.
Anything Else: He is owned by Nathanial Flynn.
