Rough shard

So we do have diamond dogs inside of this group I'm working on. This is head of the mining unit in the Rodeo ravine. He will let anyone work for him as long as they are not worried about chipping a hoof/claw. 

I am a fan of earthsong9405, and a lot of there head cannons and concepts for different species. I just really like the idea of gems being able to come out of the characters.

History:

Ever since a pup, Roughshard’s ambition was fueled to reach out and into the world and it’s secrets. From the diamond dog capital of Rubidinia, this pup was taught to be alpha of the pack by his elders and the world expected nothing but the best from him at all times, he was promised to be a great new alpha to a world that needed him. Training never ended, he was expected to be top notch but… there was some things physical training did not stop.

What went in one ear came out the other, in his youth, he was powerful and talented but on another paw very mischievous and intent on remaining stubborn. Going where he wasn’t allowed, digging holes where not permitted, collapsing tunnels and causing ‘fun’ hell on the miners of his town was how he spent his early days. Eventually, the right dog came into his life by the name of Hardclaw. A hound that many saw as a troublemaker also, became the best teacher for the wild and otherwise untamed puppy that was Roughshard. Eventually, he settled with his mentor's help and his elders were able to teach him skills to better himself and set a claim over Rubidinia as their alpha.

Things change however and Roughshard found himself stepping down to work on mines and that’s when a unique offer came through to him from a place called Rodeo Ravine tucked out in the middle of nowhere and yet everywhere. He jumped on the chance to travel and seek more in the world and with a few pack mates, he went forward, arriving in his new home to find he was… Not impressed. Small tunnels littered the town and not many homes sat about, living there proved that everyday was routine but he rather liked the change from alpha to worker and knew that if he wished he could return home to be in charge but… Rodeo ravine had a charm to it.
