Kosciusko (pronounced kozzy-os-ko but affectionatly known as "Kossy") is an Australian outback RPG based on the Silver Brumby by Elyne Mitchell. Primarily a brumby (feral horse) RPG you can also play any other Australian wildlife! You're also allowed a limited number of men with their domestic animals.
We're based on the idea of the Silver Brumby series but we provide all the information you need to play. We do not support canon characters here, we're set after their stories, but their legends live on and they are often mentioned.
New members, check out the rules before joining a character. We'll see you in the outback!
29/10/09 -- Hah! Spot the difference ^_^ Hope you like the new skin guys, let me know if you spot any bugs =)
22/06/09 -- Again, the rules got a bit of an update. This time it's the way fights work. No if a stallion has less than half of the points of the stallion they are challange, they will definitely lose. I've also updated the board descriptions a little as well as adding a few new boards, so speak up if you notice a typo! 04/02/09 -- Updated the rules a smidgen. Nothing major, just tidying them up and adding a few clarifications. Please re-read when you have a spare moment =) 24/01/09 -- Had a bit of an affiliates cleanout. If I've deleted your banner by accident and it has been active this year, then feel free to repost the request =) 23/01/09 -- I've tidied up a few of the administration boards! The "Order of the Outback" board has been updated and mixed around so you're welcome to have a look at that. I also reorganised the Character Creation boards, but I realised a little too late that any links to brumby or critter profiles will now be broken -- oops! You'll have to relink any of those, sorry for the inconvenience! 20/01/09 -- A bit of a few slow-news months!! Anyhow, hoping you're all liking the the new skin! I've added a bit of a feature as you can see to the right. Thats what the gang-gangs are gossiping about. If anything happened in the game that would become common knowledge, PM me (Tiggs) and I'll plonk it up there. 02/06/08 -- I've added a little to the rules under "Activity". I'm sure I had it written down before but apparently not! I've also cleaned out a few accounts and moved the inactive characters to the archive. 02/05/08 -- Tingara has taken the position of the King after the last ruler's disappearence! 10/03/08 -- Aleo is now King of the High Country! Congratulations! 03/03/08 -- Updated the rules on Breeding a little. Please vote in the poll in the OOC section =) 06/02/08 -- Kosciusko is BACK! I've reset all the boards and moved any profiles that were made previous to 2008 to an archieve. If you're a returning member, just copy the forms you've made and re-post them for acceptance.

Name:Boorana Age: 2 Link to Profile: http://kosciusko.proboards.com/index.cgi....play&thread=634 Reference pic: tis difficult...very difficult. left hind has a sock that is tall in the back and low at the front right hind has strange roaning or "frosting" up it in a stocking form, but taller at the front than at the back. She has a small white star. She also has a lighter hair at the very top (dock) area of her tail, but it quickly flows into black hair (see first pic) She is a smokey grulla, so a smokey (go figure) dark grey/brown colour, with brownish highlights, she has a silvery tint to her coat also

She has bright blue eyes and a solid black mane and tail. White bald face that misses the area around her eye, no white on her legs. She's an overo, and her white markings are kind of rounded, like clouds almost, and take up most of the midsection of her body and her flank. --> see her profile for more details She has quite a lot of white, but only one small section of white on her neck. You can get creative with the shapes of her markings if you'd like
THANKS!

Tiggs..... Could you make one of your beautiful creations for my mare?!
Here is her shtuff..
Name: AquilaDorado Age: 4 Link to Profile:http://kosciusko.proboards.com/index.cgi....428&page=1#6033 Reference Pic: There are 2 on her profile, one looks like she has a face marking but I swear it is just the light (or at least that is my defense lol). They are both from the right view unfortunately, but it should be alright. Other: I think the normal base should be good for her, her half-pastern marking on her right hind foot could pretty much just go as a heel spot but just a tiny bit bigger? She also kind of has dapples which I would love if you could put on but just really lightly? And her left eye is blue and her right is red, so considering we see the left eye would you be able to make it blue? Sorry to ask so much
