Description:
Hey everyone,
Welcome to another instalment of the "Introducing," wherein I introduce you to a character from my roster that has never been depicted here before, and today it is the turn of none other than Moonshadow!
Moonshadow is a 48 year old thestral mare originally hailing from Fillydelphia, but now living and working on a large arable farm just outside of Dazzledell Hollow with her beloved husband, Wheatsheaf, and their twin sons Buckwheat and Barleycorn.
A former Lieutenant of the Lunar Guard, Moonshadow was a notably brave combat medic who served with honour and distinction throughout her service to the Equestrian Crown.
Additionally, she is one of the few thestral soldiers that were present for the Changeling invasion of Canterlot, and worked like a mare possessed in order to help patch up her wounded comrades, including many of the Solar Guard members the were involved in the running street battles throughout the city.
In fact, this is where she first met Wheatsheaf, tending to his injuries towards the end of the invasion. Despite the horrible circumstances, the two immediately struck up an easy friendship, something that only grew exponentially over the next year.
Within a few weeks after the end of their first year as a couple, they were wed and formally retired from military service together, selling all of their collective assets and moving to a quiet little town called Dazzledell Hollow where they bought a farm- not only a place to raise crops, but to raise a family.
As for Moonshadow's personality, she embodies many of the thestral stereotypes. Sweet, nurturing, and ever so cuddly, with a tendency to cutely pounce on her husband like a cat hunting a mouse- but also iron willed and utterly uncompromising if raised to ire. While calm and collected for the most part, she is not afraid to throw down if the situation calls for it.
While like most thestrals, she enjoys mangoes as a snack, "Little Moonie," as she is known around town, she actually prefers pears, and has a small pear orchard near her farmhouse that is reserved just for her. When not working the land, she can often be found reclining on a sun lounger in the orchard- it's one of her happy places.
Physically, while having a leggy build, Moonie is actually a bit smaller than average for a thestral mare, and while not visibly heavily muscled from working the land, she is possessed of a taut and wiry strength that many underestimate.
With regard to her unusual cutie mark, this represents her deep-seated drive to help and protect those around her, to wrap a figurative or even literal wing around those who need it most. As for the Ruby, even Moonshadow hasn't figured out just quite what that means yet.
She is one of very few known adult thestrals that have retained unshorn fetlocks and a substantial amount of chest floof. Most trim these down out of habit as they are seen by many thestrals as not only a fashion faux-pas, but also an aerodynamic annoyance in flight.
A proud and hardworking mother with a heart of gold, Moonshadow dotes on her sons and her husband. Within reason of course! She's not the sort to spoil anypony, and has already managed to fully instil a solid work ethic into her sons, along with the drive and will to succeed in whatever walk of life they end up in.
As if it even need to be said here, Moonshadow is heterosexual, and loves her husband deeply. She does not and prbably will not have eyes for anyone else in the future. Ever.
