Age: 16

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Cutie Mark: His cutie mark is a white starburst with "X2" inside it in red letters.<br />It shows how he will always go twice as far as anypony else to help those he loves.

Personality: Kind, Fairly reclusive, not because he doesn't like company, but he doesn't have much in common with most ponies.<br />He's kind of a nerd, always ready to immerse himself in the latest fantasy novel or expansion for Discord's Labyrinth, a tabletop RPG.<br />Most ponies consider him fairly unlikable because of his reclusive nature and the fact that he listens to Dragon and Gryphon bands, who make much more aggressive music than the usual pop and soft rock that ponies are into. (NOTE: Dragons tend to like Metal and Hard Rock, and Gryphons prefer Dubtrot and Electro.)

Backstory: He grew up in Las Pegasus, his father was one of the creators of Discord's Labyrinth, his mother ran a diner.<br />He started reading technology journals when he was 8, and had an idea about making games that combined the story and gameplay of DL with music and video as well. He suggested it to his father, who liked the idea, but couldn't spend any real time on it because of his job.<br />He continued to learn as much as he could about the recent advances in technology, such as the invention of a magic display the could transmit video, and the invention of speakers that were much better than the phonograph and could play with higher quality.<br />When he was 15, he decided to go to ponyville because of it's location and the relaxed nature of the town.<br />He lives in a small apartment near the edge of town, constantly working on new ways to create his dream, videogames.<br />His game development team includes Ultra Combo, his brother; Vinyl Scratch, his best friend/girlfriend; and Doctor Whooves, an eccentric pony who seems to already know, well everything, but only tells him bits at a time.
