History: Vollo was bred in an unknown location. When he was 2 he was brought to the local fair where Peregrine lived. At that fair, there is a game that the people have. They bring out the best bucking horses that nobody wants. They put them on display and encourage anyone who want to have a shot at riding the broncos have a go. If the rider managed to ride the horse until it became docile, they won the horse free of charge.
Peregrine, 12 at the time, saw Vollo being whipped mercilessly by the handlers. Having a talent for staying on top of bucking horses, he asked to ride Vollo. The handlers laughed at him and said that he could. However, just before Peregrine rode Vollo into the arena, one of them cut his bridle.
Vollo bucked spectacularlly for about 10 seconds, then calmed under Peregrine, making him Peregrine's horse. This story was uncannily like the story of Alexander the Great and Bucephalus. Vollo's sire was named after Bucephalus and Peregrine's last name is Alexander. Hmm...
Vollo has been Peregrine's faithful friend and companion as well as noble steed ever since.
