Scurry Ditch

By Alex Kennedy

• June 12, 2013

Age: Unknown (Never kept track of his age, maybe around 20)

Gender: Male

Species: Non-Pony

Appearance: A large Diamond Dog with a light grey coat and protruding lower jaw. Like most of his kind, he has elongated forelegs that give him a silhouette similar to a gorilla.

Cutie Mark: N/A

Personality: Although he's still greedy and obsessed with gems, he isn't as obsessed as other Diamond Dogs, such that while he enjoys collecting jewels, he recognizes that there are more important things. He's not very intelligent, but makes up for this with brute strength and courage. He's very gullible, and loyal to the people he becomes attached to. He generally tries to be friendly.

Backstory: Raised by poachers in the Appaloosan mountains, he left to go exploring at a fairly young age. He doesn't generally get along all that well with others of his species because he isn't as obsessed with gems and is generally more logical than they are. Since he isn't really accepted by his own kind or by ponies, he finds himself wandering the world and searching for a place where he can fit in. Hopefully somewhere that still has a lot of gems.
