History [must be at least 2 paragraphs, at 7 sentences each]:
Little Arianna was born in the town of Waterville Maine on June 16th of 1991. Her parents were ecstatic to have their second baby girl, only 5 years after her older sister Crystal. She was brought home and over the course of 2 years, taught how to walk, talk, and all the other things she needed to learn. At the age of 5 she started going to school, by this time her older sister was 10 years old and in 5th grade, and promptly started to become a protector for her younger sister. Around this time Arianna, fondly nicknamed Ari by her friends and teachers, started showing interest in horses. Her parents indulged her and allowed her to have lessons at the nearby stables. As she progressed through her school years, her love of horses stayed with her as she got better and better. By the time she was 12 she was competing in simple shows. Around this time their parents decided to give her the present she'd been dreaming about for 7 years, a horse of her own. After some looking around, they found out that neighbor's mare was having a foal. The neighbor agreed that he would let the girl help him raise the foal, and as soon as it was old enough, they could buy it from him.
A while passed, and Ari grew up quickly, alongside her now faithful stallion Eclipse. At the age of 15 Ari was constantly with her horse, she even did her homework by his side, talking to him, consoling in her "best friend" as she called him. Crystal started tormenting her about it, telling her "Get a life" and calling her names because she spent so much time with the horse. Ari started getting antisocial, and was becoming a troubled teen, her parents saw this ahead of time and, with plenty of time in the guidance councilors office at school, she became the bright cheery girl again. After another 3 years of High School, Arianna relished her freedom, immediately scanning the internet for horse farms and ranches and such in need of workers, and found Willow Brooke, after a year of saving up for the trip for both her and her trusty steed, she shipped out of Maine and headed for Montana, where she went to find work here, and here she is, working with horses like she always wanted.

RP Sample [must be 3 good paragraphs]:
Striding from the staff cabins towards the stables, Arianna Kelly tightened her ponytail, straightening her T-shirt(as usual with a decal about horses on it) and dusting off her jeans to get ready for her first day working at Willow Brooke Correctional Facility. But first thing was first, she had a horse to take care of. She walked into the stables, riding boots making slight clomping noises on the floor. Her own horse, Eternal Eclipse, commonly known as Eclipse or Clipsy to Arianna, stuck his head out of the stall and snorted as she walked up to him, stroking his soft nose gently.
"How's the pretty boy?" She asked fondly, getting an answer as the 4 year old stallion blew air at her chest. Ari laughed and smiled.
"I know what you're sayin: 'Feeding time Ari.'" She made fun of the Arabian happily, sliding inside to grab his water bucket before going down to fill it. She slid into the stall, setting the bucket in it's rightful place, ignoring the horse that was nosing at her back.
"I told you Clipsy, I know, I'm getting your feed and hay next." She spoke with slight irritation, turning to glare at the black horse, who did his best to look guilty. She chuckled and rubbed the white star in the center of his forehead before heading down the the tack room to grab a bucket full of feed for her horse, sliding in backwards and shoving her way past the pushy horse, after pouring the feed into a dish that the horse was already pigging out on she rolled her eyes.
"You really are a pig in a horse's body Eclipse." She spoke irately, turning around after grabbing his hay net to head out and fill it for the stallion. After placing it in the stall she went to work grooming, brushing the shavings out of the black coat until it was smooth and silky again. Then taking and combing out his mane and tail in her usual high-maintenance way. Then she cleaned out his hooves after the usual struggle to get him to lift his leg, and finished off by feeding him some carrots and stepping out of the stall. She walked out of the stable and looked at the early morning sky, breathing in deeply.
"Welcome to your new life Ari."
