Ataneq is a very regal dire. He is incredibly proud of his thick, curly mane, and everything he does, he does with an air of sophistication and royalty. Despite his rather kingly posture and carefully polished appearance, he is kind beyond words and will do all in his power to help those who cannot help themselves. He gains respect not by commanding it, but by earning it through good deeds and comfort. His family is more dear to him than his own life, and he makes sure to take time for each member of the pack, big or small. Although not easilly angered, beware if he reaches his limit, for he will make sure that any problem is corrected, and that it will not happen again.
