Character Summary:

Doctor Whooves was a relatively easy-going scientist pony, though his devices were a little... 'crazy'. Mind-reading helmets. Spring-loaded horseshoes. That sort of thing. Then, one day, in his shop, he was hanging a clock when he fell and hit his head.

When he came to, his ideas had started to crystalize, and he had one important realization: He wasn't getting any younger, and there was SO MUCH to see and do. He started making 'big inventions' less and less often, though there's still plenty of half-finished projects in his house, and instead focused his inventing on spur-of-the-moment inventions. He kept his clock shop, and still works there, but only to pay the bills so that he can turn around and go off to another far corner of Equestria to see what's up!

Doctor Whooves lives in a little run-down house in the forest, with all sorts of odd gizmos around it. Some sort of big metal barrel with rows of big copper bumps down the sides rests against the side of his house, collecting rainwater. All sorts of antennae are perched atop the house. A bizarre self-propelled carriage is propped up out front, missing one of its wheels. Thick wires run out the front door to small dishes pointed up towards the sky all around the front yard. If one were to peek in through the window, they'd see a scale model of Ponyville made out of carved white blocks, and a clocktower raised above it all - his dream creation for Ponyville.

And in the back is a small, bright blue shed, barely big enough to fit one pony, with a light atop it.

Really nice concept now! I like it! Approved.

If he likes all these clock works and gadgets he might be the type to even attempt to have gone to Rockwington and gotten some precious trinkets there! Neat iron making things and such that he now keeps in his home? Just as little prizes of his travels. :D Not needed at all, just thought it would be cool to mention he would have claw-crafted things by griffins of the west!
