My Oc probably doesn't fall all within the guidelines because without explanation she looks like alicorn copycat #57874655w9 but believe it or not she isn't. Please note she's a MLP ask blog pony of a blog being built still. As such, some things haven't become "canon" as of yet. (i.e. her cutie mark) However, if you feel she isn't what you're looking for, all I ask is to glance at the "other stuff" section before bouncing down to the remainder of this email. And now for the copypasta:
Name: Spectrum
-Age: Mare
-Race: Unicorn (it's true! believe me it is!)
-Sex: Female
-Height: (optional)
-Hometown: (optional)
-Likes: Pesto, gray things, snuggles, Snuggles (character)
-Dislikes: Her current predicament, violence, not being able to remember things, mushrooms, assumptions
-Physical Description: A all grey unicorn with dark grey markings, red curly mane and tail, purple eyes.
-Personality: tweaked.
-Occupation: nomad, adoptive mother
-Cutie mark: (recently changed, I'll give you the newer one, pic attached)
-Bio: Spectrum is a born a red maned, purple unicorn with Gray eyes. She's a good unicorn who's only evil is forgetting things, not listening to her parents, and making mistakes more than once. As a filly, she tried to stop a fire once (that she started accidentally of course) used the wrong spell and ended up burning herself in the process. She proceeded to use the same spell again and learned she could manipulate color and moved her burns into patterns on her body. Her X cutie mark is a later usage of this same spell. (blank flank teasing and what not. Her actual cutie mark is the result of a yet to be released plot device. When she got a bit older, she tried a different spell that lead to colors melting off of ponies. After her "friend" (an unnamed pony as of now) lied about what happened she was thrown into Canterlot prison for 3 years and escaped during Chrysalis' invasion. During her time in prison she thought she perfected the spell and out of a deranged chain of thought cast it towards the sky. Hoping to change it's color forever as a reminder of how she's actually important to this world. What she didn't count on was the sky firing something back. When it struck her her coat turned gray, her eyes purple, she can't see colors right anymore, and had wings. Contrary to belief, she actually can't use her wings without risking a painful shock. The whole thing has given her memory loss, so she has become nomadic. She met a changeling pupa along the way and sort of adopted him calling him and her "kindred spirits"
-Other stuff: Her whole creation was made of the idea that alicorns eventually become the thing they command over the centuries. Becoming ethereal beings over time, but being a weighing factor still in the ways of the world thus must still create more alicorns to maintain the balance. Spectrum has a fragment of 2 of these alicorns in her as a result of that spell. Of course, what is taken must be given back. HOWEVER, The whole reason I'm submitting is more because of her interactions with Snuggles (a changeling pupa). She's pretty much adopted him and their interactions are adorable. And seeing as how that's more of "slice-of-life" my whole slew of plot and what not, I'm sure you'd rather have that. Snuggles is a mute (as of now) so he's entirely an expressionist character that depends greatly on Spectrum for food, comfort, etc. I'd like something to show changeling love in a positive light to the brony community. If I need to revert Spectrum to her unicorn state, then so be it. Just know that Snuggles shows purpose in distracting her from her issues and didn't play any role in the story prior to. He was barely hatched/born (whatever your headcanon is) when the invasion on Canterlot went down and as such played no role in Unicorn Spectrum's life. Even if the entire episode is Snuggle's life up to the point he met Spectrum, that's fine. Spectrum also has a foul-tempered sister if that's more up your ally.
Like I said, this probably isn't what you're looking for. That's why I'm also offering my services as a writer, voice actor, or story board artist. My services stem from two different sources, the newspaper club in high school and English reading. My abilities as a writer/storyboard artist stem from years of being the cartoonist there. As a writer I can assure there's no plot holes. My voice acting I offer only due to when reading as a character in classes over the years I would capture people by becoming that character. I even voiced a deep southern black slave man once! (and I'm a high-pitched girl) I only have a slight issue maintaining accents on occasion.
