Speaking of which, I'm not sure why I made each of them a different pony race, since they're siblings, but it made sense at the time. Like, they're an effective team partly because they cover all the strengths of each race. I don't know. I went with what fit their personalities; Michael as the sort of militant bruiser, Johann being more down-to-earth (no pun intended) , and Nena being an evil genki girl. They're all dark, as represented by their somewhat muted colors (in comparison to others) and their cutie marks. Michael's sword looks evil, rather than heroic, since violence is an end unto itself for him. Johann is an excellent marksman, like the good guys' Lockon Stratos, but while his cutie mark is similar it's more menacing. Nena's is misleading on purpose- it's meant to be mistaken for a pretty flower of some sort, just like she might be mistaken for your usual, flirtatious teenage girl. It's actually a reference to her gundam's GN Stealth Field, which makes that shape while in use. (Also, since Nena doesn't have fingers as a pony, she makes her trademark 'v' sign by using one of those foam hands. I assume she keeps it in Hammer Space when not in use. )
