URL to Character Picture or a few sentences about what they look like: Here. Cutie mark close-up.Character Species (nation personification, human, alien, etc): Intelligent talking pegasus-pony
Character Powers/Special Abilities (if any):[*]Is an artist as well, dealing mostly in abstract
[*]Like any Pegasus, can fly
[*]As a pony of the G4 MLP variety, he obviously can move more flexibly than the normal pony. This includes the limited ability to grip his hooves around things like cups or doorknobs, swivel his front legs in a manner similar to arms, sit upright if he so chose to,
do whatever the hell it is happened here, etc.
[*]He is still a variety of horse, so I imagine being kicked by him wouldn't be all that pleasant
[*]Is loyal to the few people he likes
Character Weaknesses/Flaws:[*]You know that stereotype that artists are moody, depressing people who dress in all black and spend their days contemplating the profoundness or lack thereof of the world around them and life in general? Yeah. That's him.
[*]A bit anti-social
[*]Sometimes honest to the point of verbal brutality
[*]Sharp tongue in general
[*]As mentioned before, hooves. He may have some difficulty with tasks that are very hand-required, such as using silverware or writing a message with speed
[*]His homeland, due to the magic in it, was a bit behind in some terms of tech levels where natural pony abilities covered those needs; thus, he has never before seen vending machines, phones, airplanes, computers, printers, or glass-or-plasma-screen televisions (the closest he has seen is an old projector).
Character Background: Willow Streaks is an 18 year old (they age about the same as humans) Pegasus-pony from Ponyville, Equestria. Originally born and from Cloudsdale, Willow never fit in with much of the physical challenge-oriented Pegasus culture, failing epically at sports and flying competitions of all sorts, and disappointing his parents because of it. One day, while attempting to join in on a foals' flying race, Willow took an unintentional crash detour into a house in the middle of getting a paint job, and found that he actually thought that the mess he had made looked beautiful, thus realizing his destiny as an artist and earning his cutie mark.
Most of his adult life was then spent in Ponyville at his home/art studio, doing commissions for his pushy, never-seen manager to sell for his living, and keeping out of most everyone's way. Despite this, he is friends with Sterling Venture.
Willow is very skeptical despite his creativity, not being one to immediately jump onto the "bright side" of things or assume the best. He does not tend to mince words, though he is not outright hostile towards others either (unless they push him). He has ended up in Bielefeld via a portal dumping he and a few others there, and is being reluctantly forced-by-circumstance to stay with Gio, with whom his interests match, but personality largely clashes against.
Additional Notes: Willow often disappoints Giovenith's notion of magical talking ponies as a little girl, the main source of conflict between them. He does not like her or other small children randomly grabbing out to touch or pet him, nor will he give anyone rides or flights on his back (be prepared to be dropped on your bum or hind-kicked if you try to surprise-jump on like some cowboy movie). Despite this, he tries to understand the differences and inevitable fascination bound to pop up around him from kids and girls... that doesn't mean he likes it, though.
