Age: 20

Gender: Male

Species: Unicorn

Cutie Mark: Radiation symbol. His special talent is working with radiation as well as most conventional explosives, which leads to him blowing himself (and often those around him) up by trial and error. He knows quite a bit about explosives, allowing him to improvise in case common explosives are not at ready availability.

Personality: End Game is friendly, but incredibly cynical. He doesn’t hesitate to point out flaws in plans, but tries his best to get along with people he knows well. Once he gets onto a project, he tends to stick with it until he either has it succeed (sometimes) or it blows up in his face (much more common). Due to his trial and error method of work, he tends to discover random things that have nothing to do with what he was looking for in the first place. He is a bit apprehensive of meeting new people, but if you take the time and effort to get to know him he’s a great friend and a powerful ally.

Backstory: Born in the frontiers of Appleoosa, End Game took an interest in the explosives used by the railroad workers to make tunnels for the railroad to be extended to parts unknown. When his family moved from the frontier to the skyscrapers of Manehatten, he continued his obsession with a study of the advanced chemistry involved in the process of making bombs, small and large. This led him to his true talent. While working with particularly volatile substances he discovered a glowing residue on the bottom of his bowl. In doing research of this substance he wound up coming up with a detector for radiation. In doing this he got his cutie mark. Ever since he’s only continued learning about bombs while trying to make radiation a safe source of power for everypony’s benefit.
