Age: 17

Gender: Male

Species: Non-Pony

Appearance: Included in the image is his great grandfather's quill. It's a primary feather, beat up from extensive use.

Personality: Markus is a smart young mind filled with wanderlust and a bright disposition. He likes flying, art, and intellectual conversation with friends and strangers alike. While Markus keeps up a good face, he can be easily upset by certain things. Markus has a tendency to bottle up his feelings, hiding them from others. Due to the harder times of his life, Markus has overwhelming sympathy for the less fortunate of Equestria. If given the opportunity, Markus will always help those less fortunate than he. Markus is also brutally protective of those he's close to. You can bet Markus would sooner die himself than allow a close friend to come to harm. Despite his ever-flowing river of enthusiasm for his travels, he dearly misses his family and secretly yearns for their company and approval.

Backstory: Tired of the poor conditions of the tattered Griffinstone, Markus' great grandparents left the crestfallen country for Equestria. After establishing a home in Manehattan, Markus' great grandpa started earning bits from selling his art. From this store Markus' family raised the next generation as artists worthy of the Prismawing name. Sometimes life was hard, people wouldn't want art, or just not from a griffin. Somehow the family made it through the hardships, always for the better as a family. However, after reaching the age of 17, Living in his ancestral home didn't appeal to Markus any longer. He sought to travel the world, and paint or draw whatever came to his fancy. Although they were obviously upset to hear this, Markus' family knew there was no stopping him if he really wanted it. So, with supplies in claw and his own great grandfather's feather-quill, Markus sets out to change the world!<br />
