Name: Burning Sage
Gender: Steer
Age: Adult
Tribe: Northern Appleloosan
Hair and Buckskin Color: Black hair, light brown buckskin
Hairstyle: Tied into four braids, with the rest left untouched
Horn style: Dyed blue
Eye Color: Green
Tribal Accessories (optional): Blue stripes running down from his eyes and a buffalo horn in each braid (mementos of his fallen comrades)
Residence: Nomadic
Occupation: Warrior, medicine man, wanderer.
Talents, Skills: Holds extensive knowledge of medicinal plants and can fight with a spear, hatchet, staff or his bare hooves, and dabbles in buffalo witchcraft, cooking.
Likes: Peace, the night sky, cooking, telling stories, other buffalo and helping others recover, cooking and singing (or Soul Crying, as his tribe refers to their special style)
Dislikes: Diamond Dogs, poisons, death and dishonesty
Character Personality: Gentle and kind, he is known to offer his hoof in aid to anypony, griffon, dragon, donkey, buffalo or zebra who needs it. He charges nothing for medicinal remedies until the patient is fully healed, if at all. On nights of the full moon and new moon, he will sit under the stars and meditate. He is very spiritual.
Bio (optional):A good friend to Chief Bluehorn's son, Roaring Thunder, he left the tribe to travel to Canterlot where he felt he was most needed (or as the spirits told him), he originally left with four other buffalo. They were caught in a Diamond Dog ambush a day after they left. The dogs were killed, but he was the only one left. In honor of their bravery (and as a reminder of Diamond Dog cowardice) he took one horn from them and braided them into his hair, so all who meet him may know their bravery. His warpaint is that of the mournful warrior, the first warrior healer of his tribe. He carries medicinal herbs with him in small bags. In case of dire emergencies (or before a large battle) he keeps a plant other medicine men named "Ancestors Fury" and will distribute it among those who'll be fighting.

Something to consider, a bunch of horns tied in his braids might look kinda ridiculas considering the size they are. Also explain what you mean by buffalo witchcraft.

But no skinwalking? Also the production of corpse poison would be heavily frowned upon (i.e. illegal). Rest I don't see as problematic. I'll clear it with Red, but assuming that's fine, the character is good to go.

So skinwalking is okay, but corpse poison isn't?
I left out skinwalking because I thought it was overpowered.

No no no, no skinwalking. I was just checking that you weren't planning to use that.
