Background
Rory fixing Dash's wing
As a young colt dashing learned of abilities early on in his colthood. Do to his special talent only showing up at night Dashing was taken out of public school so he could sleep during the day and study the stars during the night. His mother and father are both agents for the royal guard leaving the colt home with a sitter days and weeks at a time. Sadly when Dashing was just turning twelve years old, his mother and father were declared lost on one of their missions.
His only family residing in the deep mountains of the gryphon lands.

Once he turned into an adult he said his good bye to his best friend and all the other tribe members before parting ways from the gryphon lands.
