Age: 17

Gender: Female

Species: Pegasus

Cutie Mark: Her cutie mark is a minecraft looking pickaxe wearing headphones! <br /><br />The pickaxe is a diamond one as she's good at gaming. The headphones is because she likes listening to music or even singing to it!

Personality: She’s an out going, bubbly pony! She loves meeting new people and wont stop talking to them. Even though her outward personality is Pinkie Pies. She some times suffers from panic attacks and shyness.

Backstory: For as long as Equestria has turned, there have been 4 alicorns to control the seasons.<br />Aestiva, with a coat warm orange in colour and a fiery red mane, patterned with yellow highlights. His cutie mark was a sun partially covered by a cloud. He was the oldest of the four alicorns. He worked closely with Celestia to make sure the summers ran smoothly.<br />Vernum, who had a coat of blossom pink and a dark pink mane with highlights of a lighter shade. Her cutie mark was three beautiful flowers. Her job was to use her magic to bring life to nature after the winters.<br />With a white coat with a light blue mane was Hiems. With a snow flake upon his flank, it was his job to ensure that no winter was dangerously cold, but still contained a certain chill.<br />Last was Autumnus. She had an odd green coat and light green hair with darker lowlights. Her cutie mark was three different coloured leaves. It was her who was the youngest of the four.<br /><br />Together they bought the seasons. But over time Hiems grew cold. Year after year the ponies of Equestria would complain. To them the snow was just an inconvenience. This upset Hiems. Every year he watched. No one cared about the snow. Hiems was upset. The world shunned his beauty, and the other alicorns wouldn't even listen to his complaints.<br /><br />Soon Autumnus noticed that no one knew why she made the leaves fall off. No one ever asked. They just complained that the trees looked horrible without their leaves and that winter was coming. Something started to turn in Autumnus, she was growing tired and bitter. They all shunned her season just like they shunned Hiems'. She spoke with her brother, Hiems, and together they tired to overthrow Aestiva and Vernum.<br /><br />Decades later the alicorns had begun hating each other. Each one trying to keep their season lasting forever. Celestia saw this, and took away their alicorn powers.<br />“If you can no longer bring the seasons in harmony, then the power will be taken from you.” She paused. Her horn glowed and a magical aura formed around Aestiva. <br /><br />Aestiva had lost his horn and Celestia looked down on him.<br />“For the rest of your life you will be a pegasus and age like one, the only time you will be given back your alicorn powers is when summer has arrived.” she told Aestiva. Celestia horn glowed again, this time forming around Vernum.<br /><br />Vernum had lost her wings. Celestia looked at her.<br />“For the rest of your life you will be a Unicorn and age like one, the only time you’ll be given back your alicorn powers when the spring has arrived” Vernum gave a small bow, but kept her head low in shame.<br /><br />Celestia turned to Autumnus and Hiems, her eyes full of anger. Her horn glowed again this time it covered Autumnus. She had lost her horn.<br />“You have also lost your horn you will be a Pegasus and age like one. the only time you will be given back your powers, is when I’ve seen you can handle them. I will bring the autumn till then.”<br /><br />She turned to Hiems her horn glowed for the final time. Hiems lost his horn and his wings.<br />“You will be earth pony and will age like one. Your powers will also be given back when I see you can handle them.”<br />Celestia looked at the four one last time.<br />“But be warned. It will hurt when you've grown what you need to become an alicorn. This is your punishment.” With that, Celestia walked away.<br /><br />Years later, Celestia called a meeting. She told Autumnus and Hiems that they could have their powers back.<br />“As we all know, you are now getting older.” she paused, looking at the four.<br />“I know you all have loving partners.” She looked at Aestiva,<br />“And it is by my decree that you will bare the next generation of season bringers. They too will have to live through the burden that you have.” <br /><br /><br /><br />**A Few generations down the line **<br /><br />This time it was the Autumns turn to bring the new generation. Two colts and an middle aged filly looked over at cot. A teal pony lead there, before the oldest one looked over. She looked around, “So this is are baby sister Ivy?” she asked. The mum nodded and made a sigh of relief. <br /><br />Each generation, has looked different from the original Alicorns. But this time they looked the same, just different named. Oldest one being Summer and the two colts called Icicle and Blossom. Everyone blamed Autumnus for her actions, so the youngest autumn normal had a hard a life.<br /><br />But Ivy grew happily with the rest, as they did not hate her for her past generations. Though she could tell the rest of the family did. She danced around her Pegasus mum shouting, “I get to learn to fly, right? Right?” she carried on dancing around. Her mum kept furthering her self from Ivy, so just shook her head and Ivy learn from her brother summer.<br /><br />Soon they had there cutie marks, normally they got there only cutie mark and only had there cutie mark of the Alicorn in Alicorn form. But this generation they all good the same cutie marks as before. Apart from Ivy still being a filly she jealous of her older siblings. But knew she would get her cutie mark soon. <br /><br />There was a video game tournament that road into town once a gear. She competed, and won she saw a glow at the corner of her eye. She looked over and saw her cutie mark a pickaxe from the same game, where the black headphone she used with the cable around the handle. She ran home to tell her parents, but they looked worried and didn’t say anything. But her brothers and sisters came running up to her to see well done.<br /><br />After getting her cutie mark she was taken to the canter lot castle a lot. As her family had to work close with the royals. But her mum wanted something more from Ivy, she wanted him to be with the Prince born not long ago. Soon Ivy grew great friends with the Prince who she just now called Lighting. But she didn’t want anything more then friendship, she felt she was being forced into it by her mother.<br /><br />A few years later, when Ivy was 12 she was watching all her brothers and sister bring the season. She watched in awe, before her mother stepped beside her. She told her that she has to spend the autumn with here, learning how to do it to. Ivy was in shock was her mum really going to trust her with bring the autumn. <br /><br />Sure the autumn arrived, and Ivy and her mum where in a great deal of pain growing the horn back. Before they bother stood side by side in Alicorn form. Her mum had one large leaf on her flank in this form. While Ivy felt a burning on her flank she looked to see her cutie mark had changed. Three leaves, the highest in the middle a red colour, the one to the left but slightly lower down was a amber coloured leaf. The lowest of the three and the one to the right of the leaf, was a yellow coloured leaf. <br /><br />Sure enough Ivy watched her mother horn glow, she puts it the magic on her wings and Ivys. They start flying and a glittery like beams was come from there wings. She watched it hit the trees turning the leaves a different colour. Ivy stood in awe, after a week of flying around turning all the leaves there funny colours they landed back at there house. Ivy was not used to so flopped on her bed as soon as she got back.<br /><br />The next year the mother taught the spell to Ivy, she tried her hardest to use spell. But it started hurting her head trying to use that much strong magic. Ivy couldn’t do it, she felt her mother disappointment. All the other had learnt first time, but they flew again and tried again the next year. After having such intense training she learnt it.<br /><br />To celebrate that she would bring the autumn by her self next year. She threw a party, and she loved it. Prince was there, something had changed in Prince after the 3 years of Ivy away. But Ivy couldn’t help but notice it. She remembered what her filly self said ‘you’ll never go out with him we’re just friends!’<br />Soon all the party guests had left and just Lighting and her were stood there in the living room. <br />Lighting asked her out and she said yes.<br /><br />Her mum was so happy, when she heard the news from the letter as they had gone on holiday. A few years later a strange man turned up, Ivy told her family she had go away for awhile. While with this strange man she found out his name was the doctor. She loved travelling around with Lighting and the doctor. Her travels had to come a stop finding out she was part time lord.<br /><br />Now 18 she’s still going out with Lighting but her story doesn’t stop there.
