Character Summary: Clock Works' family had been Alchemists for generations, and Clock's father taught him how to brew medicine and potions, But secretly Clock practiced creating gadgets and gizmos out of spare parts he would find around Cloudsdale. When he was a mid-aged Colt his dad came into his room while he was at school and found his tools and blueprints laying on his bed. When Clock returned from school his dad was upset that he was not following in his father's foorsteps and rather making machines. After this Clock Works did not practice making machines or gadgets until he finished school and moved to Canterlot to be a full time mechanic for the Largest Clock Tower in Canterlot (With the story of his Cutie Mark being the only exception).

Clock Works is a joking pony, but is still very serious about his work. When Clock was a young colt he never fit in with anyone in Cloudsdale, and had always felt that he was different. Having felt different he thought he didnt want to ever 'fit in' he wanted to stand out in a crowd, but still be somepony that other ponies liked. After thinking about this and going for a fly around Cloudsdale, he noticed something he never thought about before, all the machines that make his life and others easy have to be made and repaired by somepony. So that is his dream from that day forward, was not to be what people expected him to be, but to be mechanic and to make machines to make everypony's life easier.

About 2 and a half years after his father found out that Clock Works had been making machines, a thug pony confronted Clock's father and stole his gold watch, which was a family heirloom, Clock Works' father had nearly never taken his watch off and when it was stolen, it sent him into deep sadness. Clock Works understood what happend with his dad and, though he had promissed not to, started working on a machine, a watch. After 3 months of finding parts, researching clocks, and putting parts together, he finished his homemade watch. The next day, after his parents got out of bed, he told his mother and father they needed to see something in the kitchen, they followed Clock into the kitchen where upon he presented the watch to his father, a fine watch made of silver (the silver he paid for himself). When Clock Work's father saw that the watch was for him, he burst out into tears of joy and hugged Clock. There was then a suddend swirl of wind around the homemade silver watch, and on Clock Works' Flank, appered a clock face, His cutie mark.

Clock Works is a good friend of Note Ringer, the guitarist for a semi-popular band called The Atomic Colts.

I would love to hear some feedback (Negative or Positive) of how this is and how to improve, thanks everypony.

Happy New Year!

Seems to cover the majority of the basics! Taken to the next step

The only issue I have with this is the occupation of being 'Sole Mechanic for the largest Clock Tower in Canterlot'. The problem with such a proclomation is that it could be directly contradicted in the show by having other teams, or groups. Being 'Mechanic for the Largest Clock Tower in Canterlot' will be sufficient. We would like to discourage anyone 'taking away' possible jobs from someone else in a manner that can be contradicted by the show.

I've changed anything referring to Clock being the only mechanic to him just being a mechanic.
