My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Rarity How did you find MLP Forums?: My boyfriend recommended it to me when I decided to get into this community!
How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: I grew up with the original toys. At first, I didn't give Friendship is Magic much of a chance, but some friends convinced me otherwise. After seeing some fan-created content, I really found myself digging the show and the atmosphere around it.
Where to begin... hm.
I'm a 33 year old trans woman (in transition) from California; the Bay Area specifically. I've spent years involved in the furry fandom, but I've burned out on it pretty badly, as I mentioned above. I am extremely into music and a huge fan of all kinds of genres and styles, though especially punk (NOFX, Against Me) and alt-hiphop (Aesop Rock, Abdominal.) I've worked a ton of strange jobs, from bodyguard to the tech industry in Silicon Valley. If it's weird, I've probably done it. I'm also a big video game nerd, playing a ton of TF2, along with various Blizzard games. Also embarrassed to admit I am a big fan of pro wrestling.
My OC is a unicorn called Reprise! The best way to describe her is, in short, punk-rock Rarity. She loves designing and implementing alternative fashion. She also has a talent for singing, thus her cutie mark of a microphone through a captive bead ring. Reprise prides herself on being friendly and approachable, but some ponies might find her intimidating because of her unusual style.
I am really excited about getting involved in the pony community and I hope to make a lot of friends! Feel free to strike up conversation. I can be a little shy at first, but I am pretty outgoing once I get to know someone.
