I've been working on this for the last couple of days, and now it's done: a drawing of my two main OCs, Mystic Rune and Whirlwind, made using Inkscape.

Mystic Rune:
A young unicorn training and studying to become a powerful sorceress, Mystic is overall  a serious and responsible mare. Her special talent is runic magic, a form of spellcasting that focuses on carving magical symbols into objects to infuse them with powerful spells.
Mystic Rune has a strong sense of duty which makes her focused and pragmatic almost to a fault, many times forgetting to see the bigger picture and focusing too much in getting one single task done.
Rather serious, Mystic more often than not serves as the voice of reason to her circle of friends and does her best to be a good leader, trying to keep everypony focused at all times since Mystic Rune is more focused on her goals than the others and is regularly seen reflecting on what and how she'll be doing next, hopping from activity to activity.
Despite her attempts to act as a leader to her friends, Mystic not often comes across as "bossy" or "nagging", mostly because said attempts come from a legit care and concern she feels towards those around her, which make her quite a loyal companion to whoever she befriends.
Always aiming to stay aware of any risks, MR will frequently try to warn her friends of any unpleasant consequences their actions may have, with varying degrees of success. Being serious and mature, she acts cordially towards nearly everypony she meets.
Rune knows her strengths, and displays great confidence in them. The unicorn isn't above boasting about her magical abilities and retorting to or backing up the boasts of others, showing a self-satisfied smile whenever she finds herself succeeding at a certain task.
Mystic Rune is the kind of pony who acts reserved and serious towards most strangers, but becomes a truly friendly and warm individual when interacting with those who she cares about, overall she treats others the same way she feels like they're treating her.
Mystic is ambitious, and readily takes any occasion to achieve her final goal of becoming a powerful sorceress.
Rune's main weakness comes from the fact that her driven and focused nature can cause her to act stubborn and fail to see things from the angles of others, her persistency makes it so that she simply doesn't know when to admit that she's failed and move on, trying the same thing over and over until she's completely spent, sometimes even getting angry when somepony tells her to "let it go" or "leave it to some other time". 
Her parents were well known wizard in their hometown in a far away land in which he lived before moving to Equestria and always incentivated her to learn magic, they taught her everything she knows, which lead her to gain her cutie mark fairly soon when she enchanted a wooden plank to glow in the dark. Currently she is seeking to train and improve her magical abilities on her own, dreaming of becoming a powerful soreceress someday.
Mystic's favorite food is pumpkin pie and her favorite drink is apple cider.
Her favorite animals include: Cats(especially black ones), owls and mice.
Her birthday is October 31st, her sign is Scorpio and her lucky number is 13.

Whirlwind:
A pegasus who runs a small diner by himself, his cutie mark is a chef's hat and his special talent is - obviously enough - cooking, his specialty are dishes that utilize grains, root vegetables(such as cassava), cheese or fruits. He's also pretty great at making coffee.
Whirlwind is a savvy, confident and courageous pony. Friendly and loyal, his amiable personality helps him make friends throughout most of his life.
Agreeable by nature, Whirlwind isn't really prone to violence and can even calmly tolerate being mistreated by other ponies, simply choosing to not take it seriously and brushing it off as a "no big deal", and upon meeting somepony in not particularly antagonistic circumstances, he will generally be polite and friendly. Loyal to his friends, Whirl is more than willing to help them around in any way he  can. That being said, if somepony were to push his buttons a little bit too much he'd get seriously, possibly unnecessarily angered, which could cause him to act out of impulse and do things that he normally wouldn't.
Laid back and cool headed, Whirlwind will oftenly avoid stressing himself out or worrying too much about things, that trait in and on itself is a double-edged sword: while yes, it does help him avoid freaking out over nothing, it also makes it so that he takes a long time to actually start worrying about real problems.
Whirlwind's very prone to openly communicate his feelings, either expressing amazement, amusement, fear and anger thus he appears as a goofy and lighthearted individual.
Sufficiently humble, Whirl confesses to being nervous around famous ponies, admits to being afraid of slugs and other gastropods, he isn't shy to admit his limits, and has confessed that he doesn't know much about comics, or isn't good at games such as checkers or chess, even though he is less than pleased to have somepony mock him for said characteristics or try to take advantage of them.
Overall he is pretty clever when it comes to his everyday activities but falls short when it comes to conventional knowledge, he isn't "book smart", so to speak.
Althought he is a kindhearted pony, Whirlwind shows a mischevious side, shown primarily in regards to winning money. He'll oftenly try to take "shortcuts" and "easy ways out" when it comes to making a quick buck, as long as nobody is harmed in the process, that is.
Whirlwind is a big softie at heart and is far from being ashamed of it, being willing to show his emotional and lighthearted nature to anypony he meets.
Whirlwind discovered his special talent - and consequentially, got his cutie mark - after his mother fell into a frozen lake during winter wrap up and caught a cold. Because of that, him and his father had to look after her until she recovered, leading to Whirlwid attemp to make breakfast for his mother and succeeding with flying colors, thus gaining his cutie mark. When that happened, his parents were so thrilled that his mom got better almost immediately. Currently, Whirlwind is mostly happy with running his small and humble diner, but his true dream ever since his childhood is to one day become the owner of a world-famous three horseshoe restaurant.
Whirlwind's favorite food is grilled watermelon and his favorite drink is orange juice.
His favorite animals include: Dogs, hummingbirds and beetles.
His birthday is June 20th, his sign is Gemni and his lucky number is 6.
As it's very clear both characters were ment to be a foil to each other: Mystic is grounded and focused, Whirlwind is lighthearted and all over the place; Mystic is Autumn and Whirlwind is Summer; Mystic is fire and earth, Whirlwind is air and water; so on and so off. Yet, they are best friends, and have been so since they were foals

So, what do you say? Your opinion is really important to me and all, so don't be shy! Feel free to tell me what you think about it.
