> and now i realize that i don't like drawing colts, especially when they are based on elite snobs. let's try to make this work.
> from left to right~ Keith Ribbon, Lewis Frost, Thunder Goth, and Ardan Cormac.
> The four met in Colt School with Solomon Seeker, all becoming best mates. Though their personalities differ, they all share a common goal to choose their own path and not that of their parents.
> Keith is the quietest, though when he does speak, he speaks few words, though they are well thought out and carry deep meaning. He aspires to be a banker.
> Lewis is a nervous colt, and is haunted by social anxiety. From an early age, his parents tried to "cure" him by forcing him into competitions that involved speaking to a grand audience. That only traumatized him and made him worse to this day, although he's completely open to his closest friends. He aspires to write a book of poems.
> Thunder is almost the opposite of Lewis, and enjoys attention from complete strangers, whether alone or with a crowd. He has a childish side that his friends know, but he could quickly snap back to being a perfect gentlecolt without complaint. Although he loves physical activities, he didn't find his parent's choice for his career appealing. He did however, attend a training program, and was the best recruit. He doesn't quite know what he wants to aspire to just yet, seeing as he would prefer something physical, but at the same time, he loves to play with lightning.
> Ardan isn't from Canterlot like his friends. His parents relocated to Canterlot for business, and enrolled him into Colt School, where he met the other four. He stuck out, mainly because he has a foreign accent. His parents may not have brought him to Canterlot to become a royal guard there, but they had plans to have him join the force back in their lands across the sea. Seeing that his new-found friends were boycotting their parents, he did the same. He aspires to become a writer.
