Crimson Ace

• March 27, 2017

Age: 23

Gender: Male

Species: Pegasus

Appearance: Skinny and well built, he is a pegasus with a dirty light brown coat and a messy chocolate coloured mane and tail. He has bits of gold entwined in his mane and tail, along with two wide gold bracelets on his front legs, held in place due to them being snug against his forelegs. He has two golden earrings on his left ear, and one final small gold hoop around his neck. He also has a small leather cloak he wears constantly.

Cutie Mark: His cutie mark is a card with a red ace of spades. He got it when playing a complicated card game for the first time and he won, even though the game wasn't going in his favour. Whether he is skilled or just lucky, or maybe a combination of both, is yet to be seen. His cutie mark means that he is okay at whatever he tries to do, even if he has little background experience. He is never extremely good at something, however, only moderately good at everything. A jack-of-all-trades.

Personality: He is very outgoing and happy, but becomes incredibly jumpy and nervous near water, and will have a breakdown if ever upon a boat. He loves performing for a few ponies at a time, but finds it hard to perform on a stage. He is an excellent liar, and is able to convince most ponies of something, even if they are skeptical at the start. He is very good at sweet-talking ponies, complimenting and flirting with near everypony compulsively. Because of this he is much of a charmer, and liked most everywhere (Except by the police..) He is good at pickpocketing, and is very sly. He does generally care about people, and tries not to do any real damage to ponies. He does this by mostly stealing from the extremely rich, and rarely taking advantage of the poor. The few ponies he trusts are very dear to him, and he will risk most everything to protect them.

Backstory: He has no idea where he was born, but he guesses it was probably on the road between Canterlot and Los Pegasus. He traveled with his family and their group of gypsies as a child from place to place, telling fortunes and putting on shows. He eventually left his family when he was fifteen and joined another group to travel around. He sometimes sees his parents around, but not often. He enjoys traveling to the many different places he's been, and wants to eventually travel all the way to the Crystal Empire and Griffon kingdoms, and maybe even to the Zebra lands. He is currently traveling around near the eastern side of Equestria.
