Personality: He is a bit rude to those he doesn't know, but is much friendlier to those he does.He is also known for making things a bit too complicated, it's best not to ask him for help on puzzles or really anything else. That is, if you don't want to be left confused. He hates easiness, so he'll often make the rules for his board games so that they require plenty of thought. He's also very stubborn, and refuses to change his ways.

History: Dice was born almost completely blind. Being the type of parents who want the perfect child, his parents bought him a pair of glasses. He has only lost them twice since he first got them. When he was little, he brought confusion all around him. While he was taught the easiest ways to do things, he always tried to make them harder. When asked why, he always replied "The trickier it is, the more fun it is. Easy things are boring!" This made him very unpopular, and many little foals picked on him. His parents tried (and failed) to make him accept the easy way of doing things, hoping that would make him a bit more accepted by his peers. Eventually, they realized that it might just tie to his special talent, and they encouraged it - they thought having writer for a father and an artist for a mother would, without a doubt, give the little foal an interesting skill. They thought of a combination of the two parent's talents and the love of difficulty to get a result that they would have normally expected. His talent, according to their calculations, was puzzles and games. They introduced him to many different types of puzzles, and he showed great interest and enjoyment from them. However, that did not make his cutie mark appear. It didn't appear until one day, he came up with a little puzzle out of boredom. It wouldn't be very hard if it was not worded in such a confusing way. He called it the "Idenity Crisis Challenge". That puzzle can be found at the bottom of this post. He told it to one of his friends, who figured it out in 3 minutes. Dice found the experience quite enjoyable, and realized that puzzles and games were what he loved most. That's when he got his cutie mark. He tried selling his games in Manehattan, but nobody would buy from him. In fact, many of them said that they "have no time for such junk." Of course, when he could finally travel around and sell things on his own, he left the city to see if everybody around equestria was like the citizens of Manehattan.

　

Other Information: Dice's Puzzle (the Identity Crisis Challenge) (In his own words)

So, there were 3 ponies - Red, Blue, and Green. They all worked at a circus. Red was red, Blue was blue, green was green. There were 4 workers in that carnival. There were 2 clowns - one short, one tall; one blue announcer; and a pink manticore tamer. If Green was short, what color was the tall clown?
