General Description: Runs 'Mortar & Son', a home repair company consisting of himself, his son, and a hired hoof to hold down the fort at the office whenever they have work to do. Is hard-working, and has been at his job for decades. Is a humble and honest pony, and isn't afraid to admit when he doesn't know something. Is part of a local-area bowling team.
Other: Was inspired by advertisements I saw for a business called "Father & Son" back when I was a kid in Michigan.
Name: Pestle
Species: Male earth pony
Approximate age: Mid-twenties
Coloration: Forest green coat, brown mane and tail
Cutie mark: Traditional mortar and pestle, natch.
Special talent: Unknown at this time.
Accessories: Has a pair of safety goggles around his neck, plus the same vest/tool pouch as his father.
General Description: Is the 'son' in "Mortar & Son", having joined the company a few years prior to the story's events. Is skilled in home repair like his father, but still has plenty to learn and is willing to do so. Enjoys pasta, which he thanks his mother for. Is a bit on edge when it comes to the unknown, and is wary of Leviathan. Due in part to his father's age, he has an edge in regards physical strength.
