Name: Dumat (dew-mott) Age: 2 years Sex: Male Breed: Swiss White Shepherd x Tamaskan Dog
Height: 27.5" Weight: 79 lbs Physical Description: Dumat is blessed with a physique he didn't earn. He stands on relatively lengthy, somewhat thin legs, and is otherwise comprised of a sturdy chest and narrow abdomen. This frame is covered with plush white fur, as pure as his mother's with the increased warmth and thickness of his father's. Frequent bathing keeps it as stain-free as possible, though even the most fervent of washings can't keep some stain from growing around his paws in the muddier seasons.
His head is shapely, narrow muzzle'd, with erect ears and too-dark eyes. He is longer than tall, although his stature is nothing to sneeze at, and present youthful legginess makes a mockery of the proper confirmation he will grow into in years yet to come. Still, he is a firm creature of easy muscle, with the ability to look deceptively relaxed by extension of his lengthy tongue from his jaws. Dumat has moderately large, but not comical, paws.
General Personality: The Boy King, the Spoiled Prince, the child-in-a-man's-world who takes his status and stature as divine mandate rather than a force of luck. He holds his chin a bit too high, his tail a bit too bold, his eyes.. a bit too critical. The dog is a beast of childish impulses and demands, little patience, and a penchant for snapping at little provocation. Selfish, cocky, and possessive, Dumat is nothing pleasant and everything irritating. And, yet, there is something about him more intriguing than such an outline would suggest. Specifically, he is not a characterture of exuberance. Indeed, he can seem downright passive at times and, despite the appearance of control, is quite easily persuaded. Dumat seeks something of an authority figure, an experienced mine that can anticipate and control his behavior, but this is a pursuit on an unconscious level.
Perhaps, with maturity, he may develop the proper wisdom to make himself worthy of the respect of equals.. but this remains to be seen.
Habits & Quirks: Despite his general composure, Dumat is never able to fully hide his inner passions. When attempting to keep silent and withhold information about his thoughts, his fleeting thoughts become quite plain in his expression unless he actively thinks about holding it steady. He also bathes daily, and if unable to grows agitated and uncomfortable.
Important Events in History: Despite having an overbearing father and a mother with too many expectations, Dumat did not grow into a shy or easily discouraged young adult. Indeed, his parents preferred him of his entire litter, which when combined with their high standards left him with an unmatched confidence. The family was somewhat nomadic, but despite the always-shifting environment their personal roles were rigid and specific. Dumat was perfectly content in his role until his second winter, when he began to notice weakness in his sire's steps and grey fur around his muzzle. Sensing his own impending weakness, that dog drove away all of his sons, including his white-furred prize. Abandoned and offended, Dumat moved toward Saratov with expectations of easy seizure.
