The name Attor comes from Old English and has been given the meaning "poisonous or venom"
I found this name to be apropriate, concidering he is based off of a poison dart frog.
Though I could have gone either way when deciding a gender, I felt this Mako was more male in appearance.
Attor, despite his rather dangerous name and looks, is a soft and hurting soul. Due to his past, Attor has learned to bottle things up, keep secrets, and hide himself from the world. And just like the skin of a poison dart frog, it's vibrant colors are it's way of saying stay away. For Attor, it is no different. His coat is his warning sign. "Come close - and you'll regret it"
It is now that Attor comes off as being "stuck- up" or "flashy". Most take his behavior as a pathetic excuse for attention, but for him it is quite the opposite. He just wants to be left alone- doesn't want to get hurt again. Doesn't want to lose someone he's gotten close to; and that is precisely why he alienates himself from the rest. He truly has no choice.
Attor was the one and only child of his parents, Ayana and Jekk. Tragically Ayana, his mother, died while bringing baby Attor into the world. But soon after, his father passed on as well. Died of grief after losing his mate. Attor was then handed off to his grandmother and was raised with her until he turned two years old. But once again tragedy struck, his grandmother died of old age, leaving young Attor to fend for himself. But that wasn't the worst of it. Attor was forced to grow up with the realization that anyone he had ever grown close to had died in his presence. And that's the thing, he blamed himself for their deaths. He thought of himself as a poison, just like his name had suggested. That is why Attor turned out the way he did - afraid to love, to let anyone close. He couldn't live with himself if another person who had loved him died. And so he moved on; in complete isolation. Scareing off any he could so that he could protect them from himself.
"May my bright colors draw you in,
But believe me darlin' I'm poison.
Get too close and you'll find out,
Cause baby see ; I'm poison.
Curiosity killed the cat,
But baby, I've killed more.
Cause there's a poison in my veins,
Which have taken lives before."
It was a still night- a night filled with nothing but silence. The water rippled gently, the small waves moving softly up and down almost as if it was breathing. Upon the shore of a small island Attor sat. His distant blue eyes gazing over the waters cool surface- wondering. It had been a couple days since his grandmothers untimely passing; and Attor was trying to cope with the pain and the guilt that consumed his young heart. A soft inaudible sigh escaped his parted lips, a look of longing and depair etched into his face. He was to blame- or so he thought. A poision he was- a poison too powerful for him to control. And it was this venom within him that had killed not only his parents, but now his grandmother. The idea of it sickened him, but there was nothing to be done now, she was dead. And no matter how many times he wished her alive again, such a thing would never happen for him.
Reluctantly the young Attor stood upon wobbly legs and began his decent into the icy waters of the atlantic. He had never felt so alone, and as his eyes wandered across the waters surface, he released that being alone would be his fate.
