Appearance
Sleetmane's build is very much like a Shetland's, with a short stature and shaggy hair. His coat is a deep chocolate brown, while his mane and tail are a very light cream color. Sleetmane’s heavy coat of thick hair protects him from the harsh arctic climate. In some cards, like the Royalty card which is featured here, and in his Fuzzy Minis appearance, his mane extends down his spine all the way to his tail. However, in other cards, like the Bella's Ball card, as well as in the stables on the website, he does not have this trait. Because of this, it is unclear if his mane extends all the way down his spine.

Personality
Sleetmane is the perfect example of what a true herd Valeryk member should be like. He is brave, wise, and courageous, but also kind and forgiving. Overall, he makes for a wonderful king. He is most often seen with his friends, the Glowball Pooches.

Sleetmane is one of the main characters in Book Eleven (Amia and the Ice Gems) of the Bella Sara series.

Magical Gift
Like other “cold” horses, Sleetmane sometimes helps create Arborium, a special type of metal that is half plant, half golden, silvery filigree.
