Personality

Refined and ladylike, Bethesda is a particularly intelligent and motivated horse. She is eager to learn and eager to please. Praise or treats from her rider are the greatest delight to Bethesda. While she is not the bravest of horses and will spook as easily as any other, her motivation and eagerness generally mitigate this. Additionally, she may be too needy and friendly for some -- she remains very close to her rider and isn't averse to unfamiliar Luperci.
