Her hooves are a bit differently colored as well, the front left and back right having a white coloring to it while the front right and back left are the more common black color.
Personality
Dyrius has a bit of an interesting character, her behavior and attitudes relatively different from most centaurs. She is a very kind towards wizards and such, wishing to help those who need it. She is very open to others as well as long as she knows them well-enough. She doesn't mind being around a large group, sometimes even preferring the crowds. But, despite her good nature, she has a sort of twisted side to her as well. Even though she is on relatively good terms with wizards, her kinds' natural sense of pride will easily bring about her harsh tempter if said pride is damaged. Along with that, her temper itself isn't very patient either, the centaur becoming agitated over some of the simplest things.
History
Born to a small herd of eleven, she was the oldest of two, her sister only a year younger. As a child, she was a very quiet, cautious one, being skittish about most everything. Her sister, on the other hand, was a very rebellious youngster. Even though Dyrius would fight against it, the two siblings always managed to get into trouble. She was always dragged out by her sister in their younger years, but it wasn't until later that they had to pay for it. At the age of eight, the two sisters had snuck out of the colony's boundaries, having thought little of it. They simply believed that the woods there would be no different than their little piece. Unfortunately, they hadn't realized that being in the unfamiliar part of the woods would result with them getting lost.
Having wandered too far, they failed to find their way back to their herd, something that terrified Dyrius. They spent a few days wandering through the woods before they ran into a creature their parents had told them to stay away from. Man. Her father had told them both countless stories of how cruel wizards and witches were and how they treated their kind like animals. The stories had honestly frightened the young centaur, but the man they came upon was nothing like she was told. He did them no harm and treated them both kindly even when her sister would threaten him countless times. Eventually, though, he managed to help the two find their way home, and it was that experience that changed Dyrius' opinion and thoughts.
As she grew older, Dyrius began to become distant from her sister, their opinions on everything having changed drastically since the day they had met the male. Her trust in her father's words and stories weakened as a curiosity for the two legged beings began to grow. Her habits were quickly discovered and she was seen as an embarrassment. Disgusted by her so-called care for people, she was banished from the herd at the age of seventeen, having to live on her own. For years after, she spent her time wandering through woods and plains, avoiding muggles when she had to but attempting to gain friendships among wizards and witches. Eventually, her travels found her at Hogwarts where she managed to find a job as teacher for Care of Magical Creatures.
