Sedoran is a shy and unassuming child who feels very strange and freakish among his Old Cascatan kin. He has met a grand total of one other New Cascatan, who was part of a different pod in his old clan. Tristis dotes upon him and he soaks the attention in like someone starved for affection, though he was never actually such. He remains shaken by the annihilation of his birth-pod, which he did not actually witness -- he only discovered its aftermath, after daring to return from the higher waters he had fled to.

Sedoran's world was turned on end when his small pod was beset by Shevran Caetrae -- much same way that his adoptive mother, Tristis, lost her lifemate. It is no surprise, then, that Tristis didn't hesitate to take Sedoran under her metaphorical wing when she found the kit wandering lost, alone, and frightened, even though she had never seen or heard of the New Cascatans before that moment.
