Alizarin Dawn

Age: 35

Gender: Male

Species: Earth Pony

Appearance: Lean and athletic stallion. He is named for his alizarin red coat. His eyes are amber, and his mane is a basalt grey. He keeps him mane and tail shorter, due to his past in the Steel Rangers.<br />His mane is slightly glossier than normal ponies, due to his being half Crystal Pony.<br />His eyes also reflect light the same way as Crystal Ponies do.<br /><br />He wears a set of pre-war combat armor that he reinforced using his old Ranger Power Armor. (it kinda resembles an ODST's from Halo, except the helmet visor doesn't cover his entire face, on his left eye.)

Cutie Mark: A sniper scope cross-hair that resembles a gear. It represents his excellent skill in scoped firearms and other such long ranged weapons, as well as his understanding of how things work, and how he can fix just about anything after studying it for a little.

Personality: He is generally serious and has a strong work ethic. His sense of humor is typically very dry, but he can lighten up when not in serious situations. When with a group he will give his opinion in decisions, usually from a his own personal, militant viewpoint.<br />He almost always has a serious expression on his face.

Backstory: (Temporary backstory! More to it coming (hopefully) soon!)<br /><br />A former Steel Ranger Paladin from a chapter located in the far north near an area called the Imperial Wasteland (should be pretty obvious where that is) who defected after he grew to disagree with their agendas. After leaving the Rangers he became a mercenary, putting his skill with sniping and his knowledge of how things work to use. He had since stopped his mercenary lifestyle and just wanders the wastes looking for something to do. At some point he met a group of ponies, a Unicorn and two Pegasi, one of whom knew how to cast Zebra incantations and spell fetishes, and stuck a crystal onto his signature anti-machine rifle that allows him to float and operate it as would a Unicorn.
