Ponyville

 Cookie Dough

An MLP:FiM inspired character, everyone was making their own pony character, and I sorta caved in and made one myself.  Cookie Dough, as her name suggests, has a cookie dough cutie mark, directly showing her special talent.  Having a particularly innate skill for baking, there is no better dessert maker in Equestria.  Do not ask her to bake anything else, however, especially bread.  There may be some fatalities involved if she does.

Cookie Dough is a quiet, calm pony with a cheerful and friendly personality.  She is nowhere near being shy, but she doesn't tend to voice out her opinions either unless asked.

 Odd Cog

Odd Cog is a bit of a loner by pony standards.  It isn't that he is anti social, he is just so busy with his work!  He tends to spend days upon days locked up in his home finishing the last final details on his newest 'masterpiece', and will normally not go out for anyone other than Cookie Dough during these moments.  He strives to find ways to make her job easier, his last attempt creating a mechanical unicorn horn for handy magic for Earth Pony use, but unfortunately it did little more than explode once activated.  He is normally avoided by the neighborhood pony for his random muttering and calculations, making him a bit of an oddity among the others and earning him the nickname 'Oddi' from Cookie Dough.

 Apple Heart

Daughter to an Earth pony father and a Pegasus mother, Apple Heart is the older sibling in a pair of brother and sister, and the one who ended earthbound like her father.  Luckily for her, unlike her brother, Thundering Spectrum, Apple Heart is happiest on land, helping out around her father's apple farm and making herself cozy around friends and family.  Her cutie mark, an apple in the shape of a heart, symbolize her deep love for her home and how she is a clear show of how home is where the heart is.

While she does not enjoy showing off and the extreme situations Thundering Spectrum enjoys getting himself in, she loves spending time with her brother when he is having some rest away from the clouds, and relishes in hearing his stories, usually bringing a much softer side to the otherwise hot headed and 'too cool for most things' personality her brother normally sports.  Her bow was a gift from him as he wished for her to share some of the rainbow he already sports in his mane and tail.

Puppy Love

Puppy Love, unlike his older sister, is a chatter box. He will not shut up. Gratefully, what he has to say is normally well accepted by the other ponies, making his friends find him rather amusing, although he does get occasional exasperated looks from the grown ups. His bald tail has the unusual custom of wagging like a dog's when he is happy, something he has been doing since the day he was born, attributing to his name. He was born and raised in his parent's house, just like his sister, and frequents her shop where he normally find her talking to Odd Cog. While he was a bit over protective of her and unwilling to let Odd Cog into their lives, Odd Cog's constant attempts to make 'fun' or helpful things for both grown ups and foals alike quickly made Puppy Love come to approve of him as becoming a part of his family.

 He has a deep love of animals as well and seems to be able to make friends with them easier than other ponies, making his future cutie mark a puppy paw print with an upside down heart as the pad and a bone shaped kibble on top of it.

Autumn Breeze

Like most Pegasus ponies, Autumn is happiest when in the sky.  Her special ability is guiding the gentle breeze that tends to carry the leaves during the fall seasons, earning her the leaf cutie mark she sports as opposed to something more weather evident.  Not a very big fan of Pegasus sports... or any sports really, Autumn spends her time away from muck and grime, being a bit more vain than the rest of the ponies and much more self conscious about her looks.  This is not to say she is superficial, however, as despite her constantly trying to look her best, she never judges others based on their own appearance, and can be quite naive in spotting someone who is obviously up to no good.

Glacial Hunter

A seapony of a rather strange tribe, Glacial Hunter sports no cutie mark, not out of her talent not being discovered, but because her tribe has long forgone the tradition of finding a cutie mark, this being seen as a waste of time in such difficult to live in territory and by now a forgotten rite of passage.  Glacial Hunter is best known for her hunting skills.  Yes, this is correct, her hunting skills.  Despite being a pony, the lack of vegetation in her home has forced her tribe to become carnivores, hunting fish for survival.  Glacial Hunter is especially cruel when it comes to hunting, trying to find a bit of fun in life in what few things they can do, hunting being her outlet and usually meaning a slow and rather frightful death for her prey.

 Berry Smurf

Berry Smurf is, for lack of a better word, goofy.  His whole past is a rather strange one.  Unlike most other ponies, Berry Smurf was not born into his family, he was brought to town by a stork... a very confused stork who seemed to not be entirely certain what or who he was delivering to.  A family who had recently lost their own young took him in, amused by his strange, bald head, stump of a tail, round snout and rather massive ears, but unable to resist the evident love and friendship in his eyes.  As a grown up, Berry Smurf is very much the same as when he first arrived in Equestria, just as weird and lovable at the same time.  He is, however, incredibly self conscious of his bald head and stumpy tail, and in turn he wears a hat and pants, hoping to distract from the lack of hair on each end, and usually accomplishing it quite well.

Fairy Dust

Fairy Dust is a mischievous, sneaky mare who tends to feel a certain sense of pride at getting away with naughtiness, be it something as silly as drop some rain on an unsuspecting pony, to something more serious as trying to skive off orders if she finds them to be too boring.  Despite her happy go lucky attitude and the eternal grin on her face, Fairy Dust is very self conscious about herself.   Having gotten her cutie mark due to her ability to exude 'fairy dust' from her wings when she flaps them ever since she was born - Hence how she got her name - Fairy Dust feels inadequate as a Pegasus, and she tends to try twice as hard to make sure she is up to par with the rest of the more weather oriented members of the flock.

Zafiro Flamme

 Zafiro Flamme is, for lack of a better word, a fiery stallion.  He is rather full of himself, believing himself to be the highest expert on his field, and has little patience for anyone who dares say otherwise.  Because of this, he isn't very good at making friends... which isn't exactly something that he minds.  Zafiro tends to believe that anyone who attempts to approach him with a friendly disposition is after nothing more than his high status and he is quick to dispose of them.  Despite his looks, Zafiro is a unicorn.  However, he hails from a distant land that has little to no interaction with Canterlot.  Because he is not from Canterlot, he speaks with a heavy accent, usually getting his words mixed in and quickly angering when he is corrected, not out of anger towards the correction itself, but to mask his embarrassment.

Fire dancing.  His performances are done with a blue fire he conjures up as his specialty, making his shows be unique and look much more daring than they really are.  His favorite way to end his shows is by breathing out a large blaze of this blue fire, an illusion that makes him look like he has the powers of a dragon, yet it is just that, an illusion, although only few ponies alive are aware of this fact.
