Blazing Hoof

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Cutie Mark: A broken heart, which he only assumes means he is best at getting his heart broken. Although his cutie mark is affected by how much love he gets. If somepony were to love him, the two pieces would slowly come together, and if he loses them, it returns to its broken state.

Personality: Blazing has a tendency to act happy around other ponies, and he's very social as long as he's with his friends. Of course this is nothing but an act, and the exact opposite of his true personality. It's the only thing that makes him happy that he developed a bad habit of lying. In reality, he's depressed, he'd rather be antisocial, and has no courage whatsoever. His only problem is that he doesn't want his friends to worry about him, so he fakes the constant happiness. Only the people he truly trusts see his true personality. (Namely his three best friends). He has major issues with trusting other ponies, and has incredibly low self esteem. He hates that about himself, although that's not surprising to him, seeing how he tends to hate a lot of things about himself. The only way he's ever thought of to deal with his depression is sleep. He has considered turning to drinking as soon as it's legal. The only other option he has ever considered besides those two is suicide, although he is afraid to try it. He has a bad habit of randomly breaking down when nopony is around.

Backstory: Since the day he was born, Blazing has been unable to use magic. He has a disability that gives him limited magic, that can only be used in a life or death situation. If he were to force hmself to use up too much of it, it would kill him. He was constantly made fun of for his disability, only being defended by ponies who had similar problems to the one he had (Although none were quite like him). These ponies quickly became friends of his, although there was one that stood out from the rest, Pacific the changeling. He had never felt like he was closer friends with anypony. Pacific was there for him through everything, from the first time he was made fun of, to the times he actually considered suicide, even when Blazing got his terrible cutie mark by getting heartbroken. Of course, he was sad when Pacific moved away, but he still understood that he had no other choice. There have been points in his life where he was happy, although they usually don't last for too long. He still enjoys those times while he can.
