Vanity Faire
“Now, keep those lovely eyes on me, dear. Ponies who have confidence keep eye contact with other parties…”
Parents: Fancy Pants and Fleur de Lis
Species: Unicorn/Female
Special Talents: Fashion modeling, confidence
Nicknames: Vanity, Van
Significant Other: (to be continued…)
Voice Actor: Laura Carmichael
Bio:
Vanity Faire is the sophisticated, mild-mannered, and stunningly gorgeous daughter of Fancy Pants and Fleur de Lis. Vanity (one of the oldest members of the Athenaverse) is an up-and-coming fashion model, and is quite proud to be following in her dear mother’s hoofsteps. Vanity trots through her home of Canterlot with her head held high in confidence and precision. Her flowing lavender mane never seems to have one hair out of place, and her impeccable eye shadow and mascara never seems to run. Her snowy white coat gleams, hooves always polished. However, despite her nigh-perfect and high-and-mighty outward appearance, Vanity is much like her parents. She is a well-spoken, benevolent pony that much prefers the kinder advantages to being rich and rather famous. Vanity is notorious for donating large sums of money to hospitals, charities, Trottingham’s orphanage, and even to Sweet Feather Sanctuary in Ponyville (sometimes without consulting her parents).
Despite her tendencies to slightly overreact to smaller inconveniences, this mare is in no way a brat and is determined to show the rest of Canterlot’s nouveau riche that that is indeed possible. More than once, she has traveled to larger cities like Manehatten and Baltimare with best friend/aspiring dentist Bo, and cousin/cosmetologist Splendor to set up shop in the town center. From there, Vanity gathers homeless ponies, or those in need and down on their luck, to get a small makeover, their teeth checked and cleaned, and a tiny seminar in confidence and how to present oneself in situations such as first dates or job interviews. Vanity likes to know she’s making at least a little difference in her world, and she certainly enjoys being told so.
Boadicea
“Let me see that sparkling smile of yours!”
Parents: Trenderhoof and Coco Pommel
Species: Earth/Female
Special Talents: Dentistry, her kind nature
Nicknames: Bo
Significant Other: (to be continued…)
Voice Actor: Jodi Benson
Bio:
Boadicea, or simply just Bo, is the sweet-as-candy daughter of Trenderhoof and Coco Pommel. Residing in Canterlot with her parents, Bo emulates her dad’s eye for fashion and other mainstream trends, and her mother’s kindness and sincerity. She always has a smile on her muzzle and tries her best to look on the bright side of things, but her anxiety can sometimes get to her. Nevertheless, Bo is a very passionate pony and is determined to be Equestria’s next best…dentist?! Much unlike her very fashion-forward parents, Bo’s talents lie a bit more towards the medical field – specifically, odontology. When Bo was a teeny filly and her adult teeth were just beginning to come in, her previously perfect smile became crooked and sideways. The filly was rather distraught, afraid other ponies would make fun of her. Coco took her to local dentist Minuette, who sympathized with Bo’s chagrin over her smile.
To help her feel better, Minuette explained in her ever-cheerful way how her new braces worked, why her adult teeth had come in crooked, how a root canal worked, the whole nine yards. Bo’s fascination turned into determination, and quickly worked her way up to being Minuette’s right-hoof assistant and is studying to get her MPD (medical pony director). Her best friend is Vanity Faire (who never made fun of her braces) and the two often put their talents together to help ponies less fortunate than them. Bo knows first hoof how one’s smile impacts one’s confidence. So she is always eager to set up shop with Vanity and her cousin Splendor to give advice to ponies on proper and essential dental care and complete a few cleanings. The smiles she gets afterwards just tickle her as pink as her mane (but no, she’s not telling you whether its natural or not).
Techno Tempo
“-”
Parents: Neon Lights and Vinyl Scratch
Species: Unicorn/Male
Special Talents: DJ-ing, creating music
Nicknames: Techno, Tech, TT
Significant Other: (To be continued…)
Bio:
Known quite well by his stage name “TempTech” Techno Tempo is the son of world-renowned musicians Neon Lights and DJ-Pon3 (Rising Star and Vinyl Scratch) and has taken on the title with as much passion and heart as the ponies that preceded him. Techno specializes in pop and hip-hop – however, his mother’s (technically adopted) sister Octavia Melody has been rather a large influence in Tech’s musical style, and he loves to incorporate his aunt’s talents on the cello into the beats thrumming from his turntable. Techno’s name is slowly becoming more and more well-known, though sometimes not exactly in the way the musician likes. Techno Tempo is known as the pony whose “music is his voice.” This unicorn was born completely mute. He has a form of aphonia and cannot make a single sound. Well, from the mouth, that is. Techno took to his adoration quite quickly and has used it since he was a small colt to not only express his feelings and emotions, but to communicate. He uses small beats with his hooves for simple responses, and musical notes to convey more complicated sentences.
A lot of his fans take delight in the unique musicians quirks, but it seems sometimes they talk about “brave” he is for putting himself out there, how “creative” he is for working around his disability. Techno insists he merely wants to create and wants to be admired for his work – the thing he can control as opposed to what he was saddled with. Nevertheless, if his tunes need a little vocal enhancement, Techno always turns to fellow musicians Jetstream and Tommy, who form Ponyville’s local two-pony band RazorWingz (in exchange for, of course, a little extra publicity).
