• June 11, 2015




Age: 26

Gender: Female

Species: Unicorn

Appearance: Refer to the picture above. Please note that I used a base, so a few additional notes are posted. :)<br />She is a tall unicorn mare with a large, curved horn.<br />The badly drawn thing around her neck is a necklace made of white thread with gemstones at the bottom, hanging.<br />The thingie on her eye is a scar.

Cutie Mark: A little ball of fire. It represents Blitz's affinity with fire magic.

Personality: Blitz is outwardly very polite and even sweet. She has a good sense of humor and is generally a lot of fun to be around.<br /><br />In reality, she is reserved, collected, and even ruthless when it comes to getting what she wants. She is cunning and clever, and has no moral issues with manipulating others.<br /><br />Blitz desires money and power. She does what she can to get it, but is never reckless. She does not want to tread on a bud that can later bloom in her favor, or accidentally step on a bee. <br /><br />She can act very arrogant and snobbish, though she is careful not too when around higher society. Despite this, she is not afraid to get her hooves dirty in a tussle.<br /><br />Contrary to her general aloofness, she loves her sister, Star Glider, a Pegasus. She and Glider are practically polar opposites in behavior. But they both will protect the other to whatever cost. Blitz is the leader of the two, making all the plans. Around her sister, she attains her normal outward personality naturally-- becoming very good-natured and considerate.<br /><br />Blitz loves animals. LOVES animals. Especially cats. She has a pet cat named Socks. Whenever she's not out plotting ways to become powerful, she's playing board games with her sister and petting her cat.

Backstory: Blitz was born as the younger sibling of two. Her older sister was Glider. She was born as an aristocrat in Canterlot. Her mother left her father when the two sisters were very young, and her father was left to care for them.<br /><br />Blitz's father was a cruel pony. He was very rich, but he got the money through bad ways-- pure thievery at first, than more sophisticated methods of cheating unfortunate ponies out of their money. Their mother left because she hadn't realized how crooked their father was.<br /> <br />Their mother was born to very rich parents and had a lot of money. Their father charmed their mother into marrying him solely for her money. Once their mother realized this, she left them-- taking the money with her.<br /><br />Their father did not have the money to upkeep a family and still live in Canterlot, so they moved to Manehatten where their father went back to his petty thievery and cheating at gambling. One day he was caught stealing from a richer pony, and was imprisoned, leaving the two children on their own.<br /><br />Blitz took charge. Even with their father, they had always been mostly independent, due to their father constantly being away from the apartment they lived in. Blitz desired the life she vaguely remembered and that Glider and her father had told her a lot about. <br /><br />After her father had been imprisoned for being a thief, she decided to try a hoof at it herself. Stealing to make a living, she had enough to buy food-- but not enough to keep the apartment she and her sister had lived in. They both took the thing they prized most: for Blitz, it was a jeweled necklace her mother had worn on her wedding day, that Blitz had always loved.<br /><br />Now living on the streets at the age of about 13 (human years), Blitz met her cat, Socks, who often helped them scavenge for food. They had to face the harsh life on the streets. <br /><br />One day, Blitz returned to their makeshift home in an alley when she found a big earth pony stallion, cornering her sister. She charged forward, activating her horn for the first time and set the pony on fire. She got her cutie mark in fire magic that day. <br /><br />The stallion, who had a sharp kitchen knife in his mouth, was deeply in pain and not thinking straight, and slashed at Blitz, barely avoiding cutting her eye out. She still has the scar. <br /><br />From all the commotion, however, the police came and captured the stallion. Blitz and Glider were taken to an orphanage. Glider would eventually get her cutie mark and would become a good weather-pony, but fire-magic couldn't really help Blitz get a good job at a young age, so she continued stealing.<br /><br />The two sisters attended school and proved to be very intelligent-- especially Blitz. Soon, however, they got to old for the orphanage and school and had to move out. After she finished school, she got several ear-piercings. At this point, they had made enough money to rent an apartment. Her sister got a full time job as a weather pony and Blitz got a job she hated-- a teacher. She taught magic to young unicorns foals.<br /><br />This did not satisfy Blitz. She wanted to get big in society. She wormed her way into connections and managed to get herself a job as a Professor of Magic in the Canterlot Academy for Gifted Unicorns. Now she and her sister live in Canterlot at a decent place in society-- but Blitz still isn't satisfied.<br /><br />Blitz is a pony that puts meaning into almost everything she does. Though she probably could have gotten a magic-surgery to remove her scar, she chose not to, so as to intimidate ponies and show she was unique.<br /><br />She wears two ear-rings on each ear to remind herself in a way of her strength. She uses her senses in situations.<br /><br />She wears her necklace as a symbol of power, and her desire for it, as well. It is a fairly pretty necklace, and shows that she has money. But it isn't completely made of gold, exactly.
