-What You Can’t See-

Personality: When he was younger, Dorak lived up to his name in many ways. He was very lively and loved to spend time in play with his family. Yet, then and now, he can also be very serious. Trained by his mother in all the necessary skills in being a leader, he has a wisdom that far exceeds his age and a determination to be good and wise, as an advisor to his sister when she someday rules the herd.


History: Dorak grew up under the wise tutelage of his mother, seldom seeing his father at all during his foalhood. While he tried not to be bitter, there were -- for a time, at least -- some hard feelings in the young colt for the lack of mentoring from his sire. However, as he grew older, he learned that there had been other things that had kept his father away and that Nikko did care for him, just perhaps not in an outward, traditional sense. At any rate, Dorak's foalhood was otherwise uneventful. By his second year, he was an older brother, happily helping his mother in looking after his lovely bay tobiano sister. He was devastated when, several years later, she died in the disasters that struck the lands.

In his third year, his father brought home a young Appaloosa mare to become a part of the herd. Though the femme had been meant to become a part of his father's harem -- which had never been large in the first place and had grown smaller with Blodeou's death when Dorak was still young -- but the insecure damsel did not feel comfortable as such. Destiny, it seemed, had other plans for both young equines. Their first meeting set the stage for a love story that has continued to this day, despite his father's antipathy. The fact that he loves Yasmine and would never give her up is the reason his father decreed that he would not be heir.

After the birth of a second sister, his mother and new little sister had barely arrived home before there was a fearsome attack from a pack of wolves. The predators were sent fleeing eventually, but the price to fend them off had been high; Nikko had been wounded to death. Though father and son reconciled in the end, the position of heir was by Nikko's decree placed on young Melody, the newly born filly. Since that time, his mother has offered to restore his position as heir -- for he is, after all, the eldest of Nikko's offspring and also the only son -- but Dorak has declined so far. He would rather find out from Melody, when she is older, whether she wishes to be the eventual leader of their home or not. He was quite content, with his beautiful mate and two children -- a handsome young son and a beautiful little daughter.

Sadly, his happiness was soon to be marred, for both his beloved mate and daughter took sick, perishing within hours of one another. Grieved deeply by this loss, he has continued with his duties, but sorrow marks him, though he tries hard to be cheerful for his little sister and for his son. Still, it seems a part of him died with his mate and daughter, and there is no telling if that part of him can ever be resurrected.

Even so, he does his best to keep at least an outward appearance up for the rest. With the turmoil in the herd with Miyax being stolen, he's especially had to be strong. For his mother, who feels guilt in not blocking Miyax; for Ahiga, who blames himself for not being there to block his mate; for Adonis, who feels helpless in the face of what has happened; and for the younger members of Shadow Canyon, who are frightened and confused by what is happening.
