Cutie Mark Chronicle:

Ember Heart was just a young colt when he earned his cutie mark. A powerful storm was going through Fillydelphia. Many of the ponyfolk did not approve of these powerful storms but the local weather teams insisted that they were necessary to maintain a balance in the surrounding plains ecosystem. Unfortunately the weather team did not put out an early enough warning and some ponies were still out and about when the storm hit.

Ember Heart was enjoying his time at the nearby beach when he started to feel the wind pick up. He decided the head on home. He had only made it about halfway back to town when the rain began to pour. It was raining so hard that he was having a tough time making his way down the road. The constant lightning strikes deafened and frightened him. He soon could not see the path at all as the wind blew rain into his eyes. He knew that he had to find some form of shelter.

Just as he was moving off the path to find refuge in a nearby cave he thought he heard a noise. He did not think much of it kept walking. He heard the noise again and stood still the make out what it was. It sounded like another pony but he was not sure and decided to slowly move in the direction. He hear the noise again and this time made out that it was a young filly screaming for help. He ran blindly in the direction of the scream.

Ember Heart was horrified but what he saw. A young earth pony was trapped under a fallen tree. Ember Heart tried to calm the crying pony down while he thought of a solution. Lightning flashed and struck the ground a short distance away. This startled the wounded filly and make her scream even louder. Ember Heart knew that neither of the two would last much longer in this storm and decided to try basic telekinesis in order to move the fallen tree. His horn lit up as he put his all into the spell. The tree barely moved at all and Ember Heart had to give up for the time being due to exhaustion. The rain began to fall even harder.

Ember Heart was beginning to think that he wasn't going to be able to help the poor filly. Thoughts about his own safety were starting to go through his mind. He began to turn and walk away when the lightning flashed again. The filly cried out in fear, her pain being numbed slightly by the adrenaline and cold, and Ember Heart turned back to look at her. He saw the fear in her eyes and a sense of determination filled his mind. He approached the tree again, horn glowing, and made another attempt with his telekinesis. The tree was not moving. He knew that he could not give up and thought about the life that depended on him. Lightning flashed and the boom of the thunder shook his body. This struck fear into him and made the young filly cry out again. Ember Heart heard this cry and felt a new wave of strength sweep through his body. His horn glowed even brighter and the tree began to rise into the air slightly. Pain was coursing through his body as he held it but he knew that he could not let go. He slowly moved it to the side and dropped it. It hit the ground with a thud and splashed mud all over the two ponies. At last the filly was free.

Ember Heart moved the filly onto his back and fought against the howling wind to find the nearby cave. The cold rain felt like sharp needles as the powerful wind blew it into his face. After many painful minutes Ember Heart saw the mouth of the cave through the deluge. His heart felt lighter and he moved into the cave.

He gently set the filly down and took a look at her broken hind legs. She was weeping softly now as the pain of her injuries started to return. He tried his best to comfort her as he did not have any knowledge on how to deal with her injuries. He used his horn to light up the cave in an effort to calm her down. The two sat there for a few minutes in complete silence, aside from her sniffles. An idea popped through her head and he asked her what she knew about dragons. The filly gave him a confused look and he used that as a cue to tell her one of the many stories he heard from his grandfather. He told her many stories that night to keep her spirits up.

The rain stopped the following morning and Ember Heart put the injured filly on his back and headed back towards town passing the fallen tree on the way. As he approached the town he heard several cries of joy and saw several ponies both strange and familiar run out to greet him. Two older ponies cried out their daughters name and approached him. tears began to stream from their eyes when they saw their daughter on his back. Some ponies helped the young filly into a nearby cart so that she could be taken to the nearby hospital. Ember Heart's mother ran up to him and gave him the largest embrace that he had ever received. An unknown feeling swept through him and a nearby pony pointed at his flank. He turn his head and saw that a heart had appeared on his flank. Inside that heart was a small flame.

Personality: Ember Heart will go out of his way to help a pony in need. He values life greatly. While impatient he will do whatever is needed to prevent failure.

How is this application coming along?

[Doc Hoof MD]

I feel like I have hit a brick wall. I am still thinking. My character wants to enter the medical field but I am not sure what kind of Unicorn power can go with that without being too op. Also I am not sure if names like Ember Heart and Rain Leaf sound better as a single word or two. Hmmm......

[MyLittlePonyTales]

Well, if you need help with the character summary, I can give you some questions to answer about your character to try to get the application going.

[Doc Hoof MD]

I do plan on filling this out as soon as I can. This has been a very busy week for me because it is the second to last week of school. It should be filled out by Monday though. Thanks!

[MyLittlePonyTales]

I think Rain Leaf and Ember Heart go good as two words.

Wait a second. Those are Warriors references, aren't they?

Well I think it is ready for a look over.

You need to remove the WIP tag if you want it to be looked at for approval.

DERP

ok done

There's just one thing I see that doesn't seem to fit. Under dislikes, it says, "Ember Heart loves his hometown and does not like traveling very far outside of it." However, you say that he wants to move to Canterlot, which is pretty far from Fillydelphia. That just doesn't seem to make much sense.

That was bad wording on my part. I can see how that doesn't make sense especially when Search and Rescue teams and other relief efforts will leave to help out a nearby city in their time of need. I meant that he dislikes temporary traveling like a vacation where as the move to Canterlot would be a permanent thing. I think I might just remove that dislike all together.

edit: Done

You have likes, dislikes and occupation listed in here twice. Once around the middle of the app and once listed at the bottom. You may want to edit this app and combine the two, but that can be done even as it's being approved.

Not to mention all the spelling errors. I'll get right on that!

Done. It seems a little cluttered at the top though.

[Doc Hoof MD]

I would like to develop this character a little more. Could I have this moved back into applications?

[BlindJester]

Your wish is my command.

[Doc Hoof MD]

I added a couple of things and removed a few as well. I decided not to make any big changes. I like the character as is. Unless there are any additions you guys would like to see, I think this good for a look over.
