Random Dorcean Headcanon: Intersubspecies Relation
For Dorceans, mating between members of different subspecies isn’t forbidden, but it’s very uncommon and seen as unpractical. Each subspecies evolved to different biomes and lifestyles. EG: A forest Dorcean’s skills as a hunter won’t be of any of use in a coastal village, because sea Dorceans are fishermen, not hunters. This, summed up with the fact that the three subspecies seldom interact with each other other than the occasional trading or the Forest Games, contributes to the rarity of cross-subspecies pairings.
Of course, there’s exceptions. Redimus, who never felt quite at home in the forest, had no problem adapting to Nalavega when he and Marakeen got married, mostly because his new job as lightkeeper didn’t require him to swim.
Then there’s Fayluna, who would eventually fall in love with a Polar Dorcean, and their arrangement is kinda like Hades and Persephone: in the fall and winter months, her mate would live with her, and during spring and summer he’d go back to the north
