Character Summary:

History – Stronghoof was the only male born into a fairly wealthy military family in Canterlot. Coming from a long line of stallions that had served in the Royal Equestrian Army, Stronghoof knew early on that he would be expected to follow in the hoofsteps of his father and his father before him (all of whom also shared the name "Stronghoof"). More than eager to carry on his family's legacy, Stronghoof trained himself both physically and magically, growing up to be both a talented wielder of magic and a rather physically rather physically imposing stallion. Upon joining the Royal Equestrian Army, Stronghoof rose to the rank of major in a relatively short period of time, which he still holds to this day. Fiercely loyal to the Princess, and determined to uphold justice and his family's legacy, Stronghoof could easily be considered a model soldier… That is if it weren't for his quirky behavior.

Parents – Major Stronghoof's father, also named Stronghoof, was once a high-ranking officer in the Royal Equestrian Army and currently serves as the head of the Stronghoof household. His mother is a unicorn mare who comes from a fairly well-to-do family Canterlot family. Together, the two of them had five foals, among whom the only colt was Stronghoof.

Cutie Mark Story – In Stronghoof's early years, his sole motivation for all his training was to uphold his family's legacy, nothing more. As he got older, however, he began to realize that there had to be more to what he was doing than just simply being his family's living legacy. The answer to his question eventually came one day when he saw some colts bullying a smaller colt close to a nearby school. Having been educated by private tutors his whole life, Stronghoof had never witnessed firsthand such unnecessary cruelty among colts his age before. Now that he had seen it, however, he at first felt rage boiling up inside of him. But before he was able to bring himself to beat the other colts to a pulp, he remembered an old Unyasian proverb that his father once related to him: "Speak softly and carry a big stick." With this in mind, the young Stronghoof slowly approached the two bullies and calmly asked them what they were doing to the younger colt. Already being fairly big and physically imposing for his age, the two bullies immediately shied away from the bigger colt. Once they were gone, Stronghoof helped the colt that was being bullied out of the mud and told him to let him know if they ever bothered him again. It was after the smaller colt thanked stronghoof and went on his way that his cutie mark appeared: A yellow moustache, like the one he would grow as an adult. This moustache symbolized his strength, valor, and his commitment to defending the weak and innocent.

Personality – Major Strongoof is a very proud and confident individual, yet he does not let his pride get in the way of his morals and duties. He has a very strong sense of honor and duty, willing to do whatever it takes to defend both his Princess and the citizens of Equestria. Yet at the same time, he is a very friendly and kind-hearted individual, doing his best to be approachable by both subordinate and civilian alike, although his overly-outgoing and boisterous personality can often put other ponies off. But even with his quirks, those closest to the Major see him as a strong ally and loyal friend.

Flaws – Although an all-around kind-hearted and decent pony, Major Stronghoof can be quite a quirky individual. He is extremely prideful of his heritage and often brings it up, sometimes to the annoyance of others. He is also very proud when it comes to his physique, and will often show it off at times that one would usually deem inappropriate. The Majro can also be very emotional has very little regard for personal space, not even being afraid to embrace a subordinate if he is moved to tears by something that they say or do, which is not very difficult for him.

Okay, now, to address questions everypony's mind: Yes, this character is based off of Major Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist. And yes, I am aware that there is a minor character in Fallout: Equestria named Paladin Stronghoof, although I was not aware of this until I had already come up with the character and someone else told me about it. I had even come up with the name Stronghoof on my own, basing it off of Major Armstrong's moniker, "the Strong Arm Alchemist." I would also like to add that I mostly just made this character for fun because I thought that Major Armstrong would fit in well in Equestria with his colorful and over-the-top personality. Because of this, I don't intend on using him very often or developing him further. The only kind of RP that I would see using him extensively in would be one in which the Royal Equestrian Army is heavily involved.

Interesting, though I'm no fan of FMA though I'm sure there are faults I can't point out for you though maybe characters based off anime shouldn't be allowed. Don't know =l. Wonder what criticism you'd get from the admins of apps.

Well there is a pony already in Mane RP based on Edward Elric, so...

For Great Justice!
