Yakone is eager to do her best. She was born with spinal problems that directly affected her feelings of self-worth, but despite the fact that she cannot be ridden, she excels at hunting and is actually very swift as long as she doesn't overextend herself. Overlooked by just about everyone, she was neglected by her previous owner and only found refuge once she was purchased by Sila, her current owner and handler. He spoils her, and it is only through his constant encouragement that Yakone is able to push aside her shyness and self-doubt to reveal a stout spirit and truly caring nature. She makes friends easily when she is confident in her situation, and is actually quite clever, even in stressful situations.
