Dorkey
A hybrid of Donkey + Horse
The Dorkey is a robust hybrid creature, exhibiting a muscular build inherited from its equine lineage, combined with the stocky stature of a donkey. It possesses a long, flowing mane similar to that of a horse, while its ears are large and expressive like those of a donkey. Its coat can vary widely in color, ranging from the glossy chestnuts of horses to the muted grays and browns of donkeys.
