Description
And here's my new OC, Cupid Arrow the Pegasus pony. Now I have one of each~Cupid Arrow was born and raised on Cloudsdale and as such had never seen other types of ponies. One day, though, when she was a little filly, her father traveled to visit a distant relative on Ponyville and she joined. Excited to be in a whole new place, Cupid Arrow wandered around town until she found herself lost deep in the Ever Free forest. She cried and ran, but no one appeared. After walking a while, she found a lake. Intending to drink some water, she dipped a stick on the lake to test for wild fishes. Instead, the stick started to glow. Before she could react, her father appeared yelling her name. He saw her and immediatly started to scold her for wandering away, etc. He kept yelling at her and while crying, she accidently touched him with the stick. Immediatly, he stopped yellling and hugged her, saying how worried her was and that he loved her. Before they came back, she managed to dip some more sticks on the water and took them home. After a few experiments, she found out that after having skin contact with the magic sticks, ponies would reveal the true feelings they were trying to hide.
A few years later, her parents had a big fight while she was at archery practice at school. She got really worried that they might divorce, so she flew back to the lake all by herself. After a few hours, she located it and dipped two of the arrows she had on her quiver on the water, and came back home. The moment she entered the house, she found them in the heat of a discussion, her "running away" being the biggest topic. She managed to touch each of them with a arrow, and they confessed to each other their true feelings, what was actually creating the conflict, etc. With the power of communication, the made up. That moment, Cupid Arrow got her cutie mark, an arrow just like the ones she dipped in the lake, but with a heart point.
After that, she made her "job" to fly around cities, locate ponies with problems and shoot them with "true feelings arrows" to help them solve their problems. She can usually be found around the Ever Free forest, looking at both sided suspiciosly, secretly going to the lake to dip her next quiver content.
By the way, when creating her, I got real doubts about naming... the alternatives I made were:
*Skip-a-Beat
*Love Quiver
*Heart Shooter
*Cupid Arrow
I choose the most obvious option, in the end.
What do you think?
