Despite being poor in strength he makes up for it with his speed, mostly due to his long legs. The male's fur is mostly a slightly long tan off-white with a darker brownish grey tone filling out his face as well as dusting his ears and paws. His tail is relatively long with longer fur than the rest of his coat. Gorsefoot's nose and pads are a dark grey and his tongue and inner ear are a light pink with the occasional speck of grey. The mutt's eyes are a warm brown with slight darkness and are rather small, occasionally drifting apart from one another if he isn't focused. He does not have many defining scars though hasmany smaller ones hidden by his shaggy fur.

♤[Background]♤
Gorsefoot was born and raised a dog of WindPack, with two siblings and both parents. He was raised in ignorant bliss before being exposed to the real world as an apprentice. His meals were not so easy to provide as he had thought and each new encounter was rather frightening for the male, bringing upon his sudden fear of rivers. The first time he'd encountered the river had been on a visit to RiverPack with a group of WindPack dogs soon after he had become a Moor Runner. The dark and seemingly endless water rushing below his feet as he crossed the river had been so frightening and new that he had nearly stayed behind, only his former mentor being able to urge him across.
Gorsefoot did not often interact with the river and over his time away from it he began to become more aware of all of these scary things, understanding that they weren't actually that bad. For whatever reason though, the river never became one of the many fears he had overcome, especially since he didn't know how to swim. To this day he still fears the river to some extent, even though he is much more mature than he used to be.
