• July 18, 2012

Age: 65

Gender: Male

Species: Earth Pony

Appearance: An old man who had too many cigars and not enough liquor.

Cutie Mark: Buried under a bundle of clothes.

Personality: Gruff, rude and dirty!

Backstory: Old Smoke was an aspiring military from the start. A military family, Smoke's ancestors, from the eldest member of his clan to his father, had all served in the line of duty. Smoke himself joined the top Military University in the nation, studying the Art of War. After a dozen conflicts and hundreds of hard earned victories, he was finally promoted General of The Army at age 51, right before the start of the 4th Canine War. Only halfway through the conflict, he was dishonorably discharged after commanding a slaughter of a Canine village, and attempting to cover it up with bribes. Now, though, as the possibility of a Lunar victory looms, Celestia needs her brightest General, even if it means abandoning her morals.
