> General Bio:
> Fire Ruby is the most down-to-Earth and successful members of the next gen. He figured out his talent very early after watching Rarity make some accessories for an outfit. She asked him for some help by holding the piece with his claws. Ruby helped her heat it up with his fire breathe and since he became hooked on helping her. After some time Rarity sent him to Sassy Saddles and Trenderhoof to learn some new techniques. His apprenticeship really took off and with the help of all three of them, he opened his own shop. Ruby has become a huge name for all of the celebrity ponies and he and Rarity have an amazing business relationship. It helps that he's extremely self-motivated, driven, and goal-oriented.
