Does she have friends on the other side?
As an inverted color from the traditional Zebra, with black body and white stripes. She already stands out in a crowd. Though her night black coat might only be the second thing to catch your attention, after the intricate pattern of swirling symbols that cover her body. True to the tale about how Zebra use their stripes to fool a predator, Glyphs marks seem to be hard to focus on, as the patterns seem to so subtle sway in a way that must implicate magical origins (as well as providing a convenient excuse for the artist.)
how se came to posess such exotic stripes are but one of the secrets she keeps in that antiquarian mind of hers. Though she is not one to horde knowledge, and readily shares what she knows with any who asks, a mare has got to keep a few secrets Right?
