History:
Diesel was born proudly into the McBrooke tribe, he was loved all around his sweet nature and his inquisitive foal years. He was the apple of his mother and father's eyes and popular amongst the fillies, that made all the other colts extremely outraged, they began targeting Diesel as their new bully candidate. Diesel was afraid to tell his mother and father but instead, they found out from one of the colts dads. Diesels parents were furious. They told all the colts off before comforting their son back to his normal self.

When Diesel was a yearling, the cavalry raided the village. As the village was not ready for the attack, the cavalry took more than half their horses. Diesel and his mother being two of them. All the stolen horses had a long way to go until they reached the cavalry, and with no rests it proved fatal for most of the horses. Diesels mother was pregenant and not very strong so she was struggling twice as much as the others. She eventually passed away while they were on the last stretch to the cavalry. Diesel was distraught as they merely left her there.

Diesel only just allowed human contact after around 2 years, he was still so upset and angry at the men but realised that they were going to kill him if he didnt prove useful. The first thing they did was chop him, he was over the edge a few weeks after because he wasnt used to being patted by a human lett'le own them putting him under pressure and chopping him. After a few months he had settled down and allowed the men to ride him, he became familiar with the cavalry and after a few years, came to be one of the best horses they had.
