Name: Eris

Age: 8

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Description: Average height for his age and growing all the time, Eris is just slightly shorter than his twin sister, a characteristic he hopes to soon overcome. Hell, he'd settle for just being the same height! He's often mistaken for being blind, partially because of their grey/black color, mostly because of the 'glazed' look they seem to have. Actually, he's only partially blind. He can make out differences in light and occasional shapes, but that's it. Mostly he uses his horn to maneuver around through a form of echolocation involving vibrations. Eris hasn't earned his yet, though most ponies in Puerto Seguro are pretty sure he'll get something involving healing given that he spends most of his time with the town healers.

Personality:  Like any kid, Eris is interested in the world around him, always curious about how things work. He's adventurous and loves to explore, usually leading him into some sort of trouble. Thankfully, Eros is usually there to help him out. He can be rebellious at times, but is usually pretty responsible and obedient. He's also very helpful, always willing to go out of his way for another pony. He's determined when it comes to solving problems, mostly by working around them.

Backstory: 

Born and raised in Puerto Seguro to Captain Sergio the Soulless and Sandra, Eris and his twin sister have spent their entire lives around pirates. Being the children of the governor, they're usually either treated with respect and tolerance or avoided altogether so as to not anger the governor. Anyone who has ever laid a hoof on them has always come to regret it.

Eris spends a lot of his time with the healers of the town, learning all he can from them. In fact, he's there so often that the most ponies have begun placing bets on when his healing cutie mark will appear. When it does, he'll most likely join his older brother Virgil's crew.
