Name: Grimoire

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Occupation: Element of Magic

Background: Grimoire is a very special and unique pony. He is the last direct descendent of Twilight Sparkle, the previous bearer of the Element of Harmony. His family consists of his cousin, Golden Armour who is a descendent of Shining Armour. Both are royalty by relation, but neither don the title. Grimoire posesses great magical potential, surpassing his ancestor, Twilight entirely. However, that great power has taken a toll on his mind and he is considered clinically insane. Often, Grimoire will make some sense when discussing important issues, but either during times of sociability or great urgency, he will quote phrases, sing songs related to the subject at hand or downright bring up another topic altogether. His personality has forced him to enter an insane asylum. Grimoire is smart enough to know that his personality is out of place, which is why he entered the asylum voluntarily and just lives off of the food that the staff give him. Early on during his stay, he found himself having difficulty with the solitude he requested. Instead of alleviating that issue, he simply requested restraints so he couldn't hurt himself. Grimoire has made claims multiple times that he can see the spirit of his ancestor Twilight and communicate with her at will. Staff just rule that out, but the two Princesses often visit him to ask how both he and Twilight are doing. Grimoire has a difficult relationship with Golden Armour. Being the Captain of the Royal Guard, Golden despises the "loose end" within his family and often denies any relation to the insane stallion. While the crazy unicorn doesn't mind his counsin's claims, he doesn't hide the fact that they are related whenever they are seen together.

Other: While Grimoire has voluntarily entered the insane asylum and is free to leave whenever he wishes, both Princess Celestia and Luna fear his freedom, for his unpredictability can border on chaotic if he were to add complications to his already wild lifestyle. Grimoire posesses an immense amount of raw power, coupled with an alternate point of view on reality. Combining the two allows him to see the weak points in any barrier and counteract the crystal growth on the horn that prevents the use of magic from the victim. Grimoire is able to stand against one Princess at a time. Against both, he would last barely a minute, for they possess experience.

Name: Hawkeye

Age: 20

Gender: Female

Species: Pegasus

Occupation: Royal Guard/Element of Loyalty

Background: Hawkeye is a unique pegasus in her own right. As the middle child in a family of highly accomplished ponies, Hawkeye is often insulted by her siblings, parents, aunts and uncles alike. While her grandparents show a model of decorum for her and stick up for her, Hawkeye is still often upset by her relatives' cruel accusations. She goes through her life without anything to look forward to and strives for nothing but the completion of her tasks between the Princesses and her family. Despite the terrible life at home, she remains loyal and subservient to her peers despite the collective tears she has shed over her lifetime. Her older sister married a Noble which was considered a great achievement to the relatives. Her younger sister entered one of the most prestigious colleges in Canterlot which bore similar praise. But Hawkeye's entry into the royal guard received next to no recognition, which caused her to cry for a week. When she was promoted to Lieutenant within the guard, she received the same response from her family. Over time, she grew to hate her relatives and wished to have nothing to do with them. She even contemplated destroying their reputation in the city just to smite them, but that was until she recieved a special assignment from Princess Celestia herself.

Other: Hawkeye is a very short tempered pegasus, as most are, but she is able to understand others easily which lengthens her temper enough to allow most issues to just fly by, but when something happens that cannot be forgiven, she is a force to be reckoned with. No magic in the world of Equestria can silence her anger when she snaps. She will often humiliate or guilt others by publically displaying her displeasure towards her target and explain why so the public will do the job of pressuring her victim into humiliating guilt.

Name: Applejuice

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Species: Earth Pony

Occupation: Farm Pony/Element of Honesty

Background: Applejuice is the youngest member of the Apple Family. She is the grand daughter of Applebloom and delights in her family's history. Like her Great Aunt Applejack, Applejuice cannot tell a lie in good conscience. Bound by a strong sense of ethics, she takes after Applejack, inherriting the Stetson hat that Applejack was known for in her will. Applejuice cherishes that hat more than anything and has gone so far as to tie her grandmother's bow around the brim. Her colour scheme is similar to Applejack's including her style of mane, however, she retains her grandmother's tail style as well as the colour, with a streak of blonde like her Great Aunt.
Applejuice, though always honest and seemingly carefree, lives under the scrutiny of a drunken father who is abusive every other day of the week. The length of abuse isn't specific, though it is fairly clear that she is not one for sexual relationships.

Other: Applejuice always searches for opportunities to leave home and escape her father's abuse. She has tried on multiple occasions to run away, but he often finds her again.

Name: Skyfall

Age: 9

Gender: Female

Species: Pegasus

Occupation: None/Element of Generosity

Background: Skyfall is a unique pony. She was abandoned and left for dead near the Gryphon border. However, she managed to survive and thrive in the wastelands where the strong survive and the weak suffer and die. Skyfall managed to survive on her own from day 1. Over the years she has suffered the loss of her right wing and the sight in her left eye. Despite these handicaps, she is one of the strongest in the wastelands. She wears black clothing to disguise herself at night time and black weighted hoof bands around her legs in order to increase her strength as she fights to survive. Skyfall is a fighter by nature, but unlike most other creatures in the wastelands, she will not kill. If she manages to subdue a predator or an enemy, she will let them live. Because of her lifestyle, Skyfall isn't used to seeing other ponies, Pegasus or otherwise. This makes her even less trusting that Grimoire, who she takes an odd liking to.

Other: Despite the rules of the wasteland, Skyfall will help and aid those in danger of dying to the best of her abilities, which is what caused the Element of Generosity to choose her as its host.

Name: Everwill

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Occupation: Vet/Element of Kindness

Background: Believed to be a descendent of Fluttershy, though impossible, Everwill was raised by the mare for a time before she passed away. He inherrited her personality, being ever shy and kind to animals. He was named Everwill because he always managed to mess his tasks up and make mistakes, but he always tried and tried again, displaying an everlasting will to succeed, hence 'Everwill'. Though Fluttershy's Illegitimate son, the Stallion possesses her light yellow pelt and a pink mane of a darker shade with black highlights through mane and tail. He has little to no confidence, but doesn't let what anypony says get him down. He loved Fluttershy and continued her legacy as a carer for animals.

Other: Everwill's Cutie mark is a black rose with three petals falling from it. Nopony knows exactly what it symbolises, but looking at it tends to give ponies a heavy headache.

Name: Happy-Go-Lucky (DJ-Happy)

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Species: Earth Pony

Occupation: DJ/Element of Happiness

Background: DJ-Happy is a rather popular pony. With a carefree personality and natural talent for music, he personifies his Element of Harmony entirely. Like the late Pinkie Pie, he has a knack for doing the unnaturally weird, but it works for his musical gigs, especially when he throws records out to the crowds.

Other: Happy-Go-Lucky prefers his stage name over his full name, allowing his friends to simply call him Happy.
