Physique: A little on the bulky side, but muscular

Residence: Recently relocated to Ponyville, and then further north to the Nimbusgait Lakes, though she still considers herself a resident of Ponyville largely because of her frequent trips downriver to shop for supplies there.

Occupation: Proprietor of the Nimbusgait Inn

Motivation: Trying to get a new lease on life.

Likes: Any flowing body of water, especially the ocean, and everything in them. The moon, because of it's pull on the tides. Rainy days, stories from travellers, flying on windy days, especially with seabirds.

Dislikes: Being too far from the water, hot, dry weather, ponies who don't take their responsibilities seriously.

Character Summary: Sealight grew up on the seashore, and became keeper of the lighthouse at the point of Seasaddle Bay (so long as no one minds me just plopping one there). She took her job very seriously and was diligent not just about maintaining the light, but maintaining the traditions. She never flew to the top, but always walked up the tall, spiral staircase the way the original Earth Pony keepers did, which gave her the bulky muscles she has. She often greeted travellers between the mainland and the island, even guiding the ferry using her keen sense of direction during rough weather when the light couldn't pierce the fog or rain. She often opened her home to any ponies or creatures passing through, and enjoys having houseguests. The years of travelling the stairs has taken its toll on her knees, and her worst fear was finding herself unable to climb as night fell and the lamp needed to be lit, so she passed on her job to a new pony. Though she misses the ocean, she has found a new home on the shores of the Nimbusgait Lakes, close to Ponyville, and a new occupation in the Nimbusgait Inn.

Sealight's inn is two floors and a little-used basement. The first floor is made up of the lobby, a lounge area, a dining room that opens up onto a small deck overlooking the grounds, a kitchen, and her own private quarters (a sitting room and bedroom). The upstairs has eight guest rooms, each with enough room for two guests. Four of these rooms are two single beds, four have one double/queen sized bed. A more thorough description of the decor can be found here.

When guests begin to arrive, I'll edit this post to include a floorplan and a list of who is staying in each room.
