Age: 23 (8/24)

Gender: Female

Species: Earth Pony

Appearance: Eyes: A deep purplish-blue. Most commonly sharp and guessing.<br /><br />Body: A very slightly purplish gray. Has freckles on her nose, and cheeks. Slightly frizzy around the ears, and the backs of her knees. Walks with purpose.<br /><br />Mane: Cherry red, with the occasional streak of yellow. Has recently cut it to about chest height altogether.<br /><br />Scent: ink and fresh pine<br /><br />Voice:<br />Powerful and authoritative. Puts heavy emphasis on the first word in a sentence, and emphasizes every second word. Stresses her syllables.

Cutie Mark: An inkwell full of red ink with a question mark enfolded inside, signifying her talents with being an investigative reporter.

Personality: Determined. Is going to try to get to where she needs to, regardless of the stakes. Has very few lines to draw, one of them being hurting other ponies, but most things aren't above her, and has been known to break light rules and laws, provided they get her closer to her goals.<br /><br />Mature. Always carries herself in a self-certain, confident manner, no matter where she is. Stays composed and keeps her cool, even under the most tense of situations. Isn't a sore loser, and can admit her losses gracefully when she has them.<br /><br />Courageous. Isn't afraid of situations or events that would terrify others, even when said events may be life-or-death in nature (and often winds up in them, anyways, due to her job). Instead heads into them willingly and without hesitation, working things out instead in the moment, and as she goes along.<br /><br />Intelligent. Does well at planning, once she's stuck in a particular situation. If she can, she'll readily play the situation to her advantage, and use other ponies strengths and weaknesses to her benefit. Can read a situation very well, very quickly, and respond accordingly.<br /><br />Strengths:<br />A master reporter with years of experience gives her a heavily analytical mind, and she's able to work down problems very easily.<br /><br />Knows how take charge of a situation, and find her way to an upper hand easily.<br /><br />World savvy enough to get around on her own skills, without help.<br /><br />Weaknesses:<br />Sometimes pulls bluffs that she doesn't have, promises things beyond her, claims power she doesn't have, etc., which may get her into trouble if she's called out on them.<br /><br />Her obsession with S.M.I.L.E sometimes draws a sense of recklessness, in her urge to track them down. Works the same for large cases, on a smaller scale.<br /><br />Likes:<br />New scoops<br />Bars<br />Interesting characters<br />Mysterious figures<br />Apple Cider<br /><br />Dislikes:<br />Mouthiness<br />Idiocy<br />Excessive flirtation<br />Being held up

Backstory: -A very auspicious investigative reporter, who makes her living exposing truths and finding information that most ponies were unaware of. Or in some cases, choose to keep hidden.<br /><br />-Was born in Ponyville, but chose to move to Canterlot, since it's the hub of most of the strange occurrences that go on in Equis. Has been wanting to do so since she was a kid, and always carried an interest in exposing strange and fascinating mysteries.<br /><br />-Earned her cutie mark tracking down a mystery. Several years ago, rumors of a Bug Bear escape from Tartarus' connection to Canterlot drew her there, eager to explore what would be her first real mystery. Came very close, after a detailed investigation that extended onward for several months. Unfortunately, ran afoul of a mysterious organization known only as S.M.I.L.E., and woke up in a Canterlot hotel with a cutie mark, but no memories of the investigation, or how it went. Does remember the feeling, however, and is driven to do more.
