I tried out doing my first drawing of a pony...
Here's a description (Using another user's format, but I assumed it's universal):
Name: Cuddle Cresent (Got the name from a name generator so...)
Type: Earth Pony
Age: 16
Job: Traveller, Odd jobs around towns
Friends: Knew Twlight as a little fillie... Not too well though. Ends up being friends with most ponies she meets... Sometimes not so much...
Cutie Mark: Heart Breaking a bar of steel (Represents 'Tough Love' which she shows to those she encounters. Also her strong will).
Talent: Acting and Fighting.
Personality: Acts very girly (stereotypically), but is a big bad tom boy on the inside. Loves fighting, sports, and action packed situations... Time to time, she may like other "girly" things.
Flaws: Has a ton of pride, and can get mad easy. She can control herself though, after awhile of anger. She also is arrogant in most cases and is greedy when it comes to sales, and will milk any oppurtunity (May not be a weakness, but would definitely be an annoying aspect).
Backstory (Off the top of my head): She grew up in Canterlot, and was always looked at as the cutest pony in her class. She hated it. She did tons of tough stuff, got into fighting, and sports of all sorts., but was still looked at like any other cute pony out there. So, once she was old enough, she left home. She at first planned on living off the land, and started to farm. She found it boring though, and didn't want to stay in one place, so she abandoned the farm, by selling it to a couple who wanted that sort of life. She got a good amount of bits for it... She could've done better! She thought, and vowed to never mess up a sales oppurtunity again. After she left the farm, she just started to trek down a path. It veered and turned to all the lovely things in Equestria... She wanted something different then that. She decided to leave Equestria, and explore the lands outside. She did, fighting nasty mythical creatures, unseen to many pony's eyes, and found rare artifacts, that helped her defeat powerful foes. She sold whatever she didn't need, and makes a fortune... Most of the time. She has now decided to come home to Equestria, after a long 6 years of travel (Especially the one adventure into the 'Place ofNo Time' :3)
