Age: 32

Gender: Male

Species: Earth Pony

Appearance: I'll list the things you may not pick up from the image.<br /><br />His jacket has various attachment ports built into it, so he can equip any of his designs easily. None of his designs will be able to work optimally without his jacket, but they can still be utilised. When he flies, he uses a pair of goggles similar to the WonderBolts flight goggles, however they are tinted red to avoid sunglare.

Cutie Mark: 2 locking gears with bits (currency) in the middle.

Personality: While very intelligent, he's generally very laid back and easy going. Nothing others do really bugs him, as he lets "each to their own" rule his judgement. He is also very sensible and likes to think about things before doing them, and is not shy about sharing his opinions however.<br /><br />Things that annoy him are; seeing others with more money than him, not being able to finish something he's started and being made to work when he's getting nothing from it. <br /><br />After learning the value of money, he's become very greedy and money driven, going so far as to sell shoddy goods to ponies so they buy the "next model" when they break.

Backstory: Metal Gear found his calling working in his fathers workshop when he was a colt. He always had an interest in how things work, and would very often be deconstructing things to get a feel for how to put them together again from a very young age. <br /><br />One day in his fathers workshop, there was an accident with one of his magically operated machines, and his unicorn assistant was out of town for the time. With his quick thinking, he took a device he was working on and used it to power the machine with energy, long enough for the unicorn to fix it when he returned. It was this that caused his cutie mark to appear.<br /><br />He's extremely money driven, and will do pretty much anything to get his hands on more of the stuff, as such he's very tight, and not often easy to part from his bits.
