Faction: Neutral

Personality: Honey is a very kind-hearted pony with a sunny disposition. She is always seeing the best in each situation, and is kind to anyone, no matter their race. She is friendly and gentle, with a great bedside manner that endears her to patients and families alike.

Special Talent: Medical expertise. Honey studied long and hard and found her special talent for medical care. Patients in her care have been proven to recover from their injuries and illnesses quicker due to faster diagnosis.

Bio: Honey Heart was born in Ponyville, the older of a pair of twin fillies. While her sister, Wild Heart, grew up doing as she pleased, with no repercussions, Honey spent her time immersed in her studies. Both of her parents were working class ponies, with little education, but they knew Honey had potential and nurtured her with private schooling, the best books they could afford, and tutors when she asked for them.

It was in private school in Canterlot where she realized her love of medical study, which she learned while volunteering at a local hospital reading to sick fillies and colts in the intensive care wing. She knew then and there that her path was to become a doctor, and it was then that her cutie mark appeared. She grew into an intelligent and hard working pony, and was able to receive a scholarship to medical school in Fillydelphia. There she studied medicine deeply, and both folk and pharmaceutical remedies.

After her graduation, Honey moved back to Ponyville to take care of the town she'd been raised in, and to spend time with the ponies she loved.

Race: Pegasus

Name: Scarlet Glory

Gender: Female

Appearance: Scarlet Glory is a female pegasus of medium stature, with a cream colored coat and wings and deep green eyes. Her main falls about her shoulders in waves of burgundy, accented with a flash of fiery red. She wears no extraneous coverings, as they may become tangled in a scuffle, should one arise. Her flank bears a golden laurels cutie mark, pertaining to her previous history in the service of Equestria's military and Luna's royal guard.

Faction: Neutral

Personality: Scarlet has a polite disposition that peaks at being kind, but usually borders on the aloof side. Her kindness and formality keeps others at a wing's length, as she is not one to trust easily, and is quick to side with the “just”. Good and evil are relative to her, and she is more likely to side with those to whom equality is due.

Special Talent: Tactical strategy. Scarlet is a clever tactician, and earned her cutie mark in military academy when she realized she had a knack for creating strategic opportunities against bullies at her school.

Bio: Scarlet Glory was born into a military family. Her father was among Princess Celestia's elite guards, and her mother, one of the Princess's ladies in waiting. As a young filly, Scarlet wanted for nothing, and idolized her father's work in the military. Her determination to follow in her father's footsteps became blatantly apparent when her parents gave her the choice of what school she would attend. Given the choice between Miss Cherry Souffle's Etiquette School for Fillies and Canterlot Military Academy, Scarlet jumped at the chance to attend the same school her father had attended as a colt.

Scarlet adored her classes at the military academy, and studied diligently, earning top marks in almost all of her classes. This, and the fact that she was one of the very few fillies at the academy made many of the colts resentful of her, and they teased her incessantly about being a bookworm, about her small stature, and about her lack of physical prowess. Determined to beat the bullies at their own game, Scarlet took to late night private lessons with the school's hoof to hoof combat teacher. The hard work paid off, but not enough to hold her own in an all out brawl.

One day, when she found herself once again cornered by the school bullies, she decided that if she couldn't fight her way out of them, she would outsmart them. As the larger colts advanced, determined to hogtie her and hang her upside down from the flagpole again, Scarlet noticed a small advantage in the form of the very rope they'd brought for her. She quickly darted forward and grabbed it, dashing under the much bigger colts, between their legs and flying straight up, entangling their legs and wings and dangling them from a tree. It was then that her golden laurel cutie mark appeared.

As expected, she graduated at the top of her class and immediately enlisted with the Equestrian army, hoping to join her father on the front lines, but found herself saddled with a different and much more disappointing duty; being Princess Luna's personal bodyguard, a task Scarlet begrudgingly accepted. Working alongside the princess offered Scarlet an insight that she never had before, and it was one that would change the way she thought forever. During a royal discussion about the movements of the troops against the dragons, she overheard some of the Generals talking about withdrawing protection from some of the frontier towns in order to condense protection around Canterlot. The thought of the people in the frontier towns who had suffered enough as it was being left to the mercy of the dragons and whatever other elements that could attack them drove her to speak out fervently against it, stating that the lives of their people was what the army was supposed to protect.

The ruckus she caused was such an embarassment to the Generals in front of Celestia and Luna, that they immediately pulled Scarlet from service and sent her out into Equestria as a “scout”, a position that was actually more of an exile from Canterlot that left her wandering from place to place. And this is where our story finds her.
