Description Alright so, This drawing... was a bitch. Not only did I have to design 9 new ponies for this picture and tweak them on the fly, as well as make curie marks for them all, I had to do this drawing 3 times. One because SAI crashed. 2 because when I was in mid color, my computer just crashed, corrupting the file and now third try, here we have it, shit background and all.

So, here we have the team that was talked about in my last picture fav.me/da1x38m , all of them, Alive and dead.

From left to right, starting from the bottom.
Valiant Gold is the mare(yes Mare, I know, she looks like a guy. I couldn't help it, I wanted her to have short hair and she ended up looking like a colt) on the far end, bold and daring, this Earth pony is full of spunk and energy, always one to invade personal space (Seeing as she's touching Lucky's butt) just to make them pay attention. She has a daughter back home in ponyville, having left her with her father while she went through Royal Guard training, aspiring to serve under Princess Twilight, having looked up to her since she was a young filly when she had ascended into royalty.

Lucky Strike is the gray-green toned colt, always one matching his name, his luck getting him and his team in great situations. Though he seems like a nice guy, this stallion has a mouth and attitude a mile wide, seeming crude and rude when he is first met before melting into a friendlier disposition once true efforts are made to befriend him. He sees his team as family.

Silver Shield, second in command and offence expert of the team, his abilities are.. Uncommon. Having a type of unicorn magic though he has no horn. He channels magic through his hooves, it always being stronger around powerful unicorns because it gives him a boost. He summons weapons from nothing seemingly and is the first to head into battle, scoping out the danger with Evening at his side, using his defence magic, shielding him from harm. The two work amazing together. Outside of fights, Silver is a very calm and mild-mannered stallion, having quickly become one of Twilight's favorite guard trainees while they were all still in the academy.

Evening Star- well you already know him lol

Winter Frost, No one knows why this timid and quite mare joined the military or how she made it through training with her gentle and meek attitude. However she did. She tends to be the brains of the team, scoping out fight plans and giving advice to other team members on how they can improve their skills that she observes.

Scarlet Lance- This wild card has no special skills, nor is she skilled at magic, but she is one determined little pony. She uses her small stature to her advantage. She is very quick and agile, able to land fast blows, repeatidly again and again before the other even has a chance to think about what to do. But in her down time, she is shamelessly flirting with Winter, just flustering the poor little snowflake. But Scarlet finds their oppositions very amusing.

Now for the top row, the pegasai. Left to right like before

Wild Heart- Like his name implies, he is the team's wild card, hard to predict and always everywhere though he seems pretty chill in the pic. He is the fast flier of the team, though he isn't the most graceful and will sometimes send him straight into a tree. His speciality are dive bomb attacks where he just shoots down and kicks right off his opponent's head. Helmets are required.

Comet Arrow: The relayer of information. He isn't a huge fighter, he rathers to stay on the side of delivering messages back and forth between the Royal guard Captian, Team Captian, being Evening Star, or to Twilight herself. He is quite the big bragger as well and enjoys to exagerate a lot, which can be seen from his cocky expression.

Night Chaser: The stealth fighter, she prefers night fights because she blends in much easier, even though she is seen from her light hair, she is actually the strongest fighters in the flying devision of the team, even though she is smaller than the stallions. Size doesn't mean strength, according to her.

Marble: The scout of the team, she tries to avoid fights but has a great ability of flying up high to where most pegasai won't go because it'd impede their sight due to clouds, she has no problems seeing. Though that doesn't mean she stays out of the fights. She is mainly a pacifist, however if a battle is going south, she will be the first to step in. However she is the most fragile of the team. A glass canon if you will.



And there we have it, a base description of Evening Star's team in the royal guard. No this is not the entire royal guard by far, this is just the group that was assigned together after leaving the academy and Evening having been voted leader unanimously by every single one of them. He cried. He'll deny it, but he cried.

I need ti stop shipping, I was already shipping Silver and Evening before I even had a proper design for him in my head. aaaah xD
