FiM Cast Snips

[Corsair]

Name: Snips

Sex: Male

Age: Foal

Species: Unicorn

Pelt Color: Blue-Gray

Mane/Tail Color & Style: Orange mane and tail, both kept short and spiky.

Eye Color: Brown, with bushy brown eyebrows (No eye color shown in episodes)

Cutie Mark: A pair of open scissors in white and gray

Physique: Short and stocky for a foal his age. Has a pair of prominent buck teeth.

Residence: Ponyville

Occupation: Student

Motivation: Snips' cutie mark shows his talent for telekinetic magic. Specifically, he has the potential to take over his father's barber shop in Ponyville. He's not very good at cutting hair yet (he cut his own hair, and you can tell,) but he's working on it. He's fascinated with magic and powerful magic users, and is always trying to improve his own abilities.

Likes: Magic (both Unicorn magic and sleight-of-hoof magic), Snails, mustaches, Trixie...no, Twilight.

Dislikes: Being teased about his appearance, Ursas, Silver Spoon, Diamond Tiara, liars, sports.

Character Summary: Snips is the son of Ponyville's barber. He knows that one day he'll be working along side his dad and then taking over the business, but he's in no hurry to take over boring adult responsibilities. He's much more interested in goofing off with his buddy Snails, and trying to improve his magic act.

Snips doesn't fit in well with most of the other colts in Ponyville his age. He's often teased for his short stature and his weight, by colts and fillies as well. He's not interested in sports or competitions, he just wants to do magic. He and Snails, though, are nearly inseparable.

Snips is a bit hyperactive, and tends to be the idea pony between the two friends. It was his bright idea to bring an Ursa into town to get Trixie to demonstrate her "awesome magical abilities". When Trixie failed to deliver on her boasts, it crushed Snips emotionally (and almost crushed him physically.) In the aftermath of the attack, only groveling to his father had saved him from being grounded for the rest of his natural life. He still wishes that he could be a showpony like Trixie, but he now has a bit of a fancolt crush on Twilight Sparkle.

Snips' prize possession is the medal he received for "Best Magic Act" at the Ponyville talent show. Granted, he and Snails were the ONLY magic act, but that doesn't matter to him.

I think that Snips would still be considered a Foal.

I like what you've done with the character, the age is the only problem I see with this. You'll have to wait for Meow's approval, since she handles cast applications, but this looks good!

As MLPT has mentioned Snips would be considered a Foal (along with Snails and the Cutie Mark Crusaders).

Other than that - Approved! Be sure to edit the correct Age bracket in there and review the Cast Member Policies.
