Pre-taming- Often scheming to worm his way up the social hierarchy, Elk is a bit of a scapegoat despite being highly intelligent and highly motivated. Due to his small size, he's easily pushed around. Humans are seen as little more than a source of getting what he wants, which may make him seem friendly at first, but when someone has nothing of value to offer him, he will quickly become aloof and irritable. Post-taming- A formidable and agile hunter. He's learned to be more trusting, but he still has a bit of his old habits. He will quickly become disinterested in something if it is of no benefit to him, though he will also keep in mind the thoughts of his handler and Eshi.
