Occupation: Geologist, Graduate Student from Canterlot University

Cutie Mark: A pair of snow-capped mountain peaks crossed by a geologist’s rock hammer.

History: Topaz grew up on the outskirts on Fillydelphia. Her father is a long-haul cart pony, while her mother is a unicorn jewler. Topaz inherited both her dad’s large build with her mother’s bad eyesight. Both of these features caused a group of neighborhood colts to tease her.

Some of those colts had set up a club house in an old cave outside the town. Topaz had always had a bad feeling about the place, but she was never been able to figure out why. She had tried to warn the boys away from the place, but the colts had dismissed her fears. Then, one day while the colts were playing deep in the cave, the tunnels collapsed, trapping them inside. Topaz insisted on going with the rescue party. During the rescue, she began to feel vibrations through her hooves. She found that she was somehow able to sense where the cracks in the cave walls were, where the ground was dangerous, and where the rescuers could dig without collapsing the cave further. After hours of digging, the colts were finally rescued. As Topaz lay outside the cave, exhausted, the colts came up to thank her, and pointed out that she had gotten her cutie mark. She became great friends with the colts she had helped to save, and she still writes to them regularly.

As she matured, Topaz continued to develop her ‘earth sense’. By stomping the ground, she is able to feel the vibrations through her large hooves and determine the composition of the earth below and if anything is buried nearby. She became fascinated with earth and rocks and minerals, and eventually was accepted to Canterlot University to study geology.

Character Summary: Topaz is a product of two very different parents. Her father (whom she always refers to as ‘Daddy,’) is a coarse, no-nonsense stallion who makes his living pulling heavy carts over long distances. Her mother, on the other hoof, is an elegant unicorn jeweler who always sought to teach her daughter proper behavior.

Topaz is very eloquent and scholarly, but she also loves getting out and digging into the earth. She always strives to maintain proper manners, but she will vehemently defend her friends, and cannot stand rudeness. While she normally speaks in a cultured, educated manner, when she gets angry, she slips into much rougher ‘cart driver’ speech.

She is currently a graduate student at the University, and is undertaking an extensive geological survey of Equestria for her thesis. While it is lonely out on the road by herself, Topaz keeps in touch with her parents and her friends with regular letters.

Topaz is fascinated by minerals, jewels, stones, and the earth of Equestria. She is much more interested in the ancient history she can find in rocks than in current events. She’s most at home on mountains, volcanoes, or when underground.

Likes: Minerals, jewels, caves, and mountains. She has a weakness for junk food like hay fries.

Dislikes: Rudeness, tall buildings, flying (as in a pegasus carriage) , anything that gets her hooves too far off the ground.
