Name: Hoplite
Gender: Male
Age: Adult
Species: Earth Pony
Pelt Color: Azure
Mane/Tail Color & Style: Short, well-kept white and grey. Average length tail.
Eye Color: Brown
Cutie Mark: A mountain
Residence: Hoofington
Occupation: Militia
Talents, Skills: Holding his ground, resistance to force.
Likes: He's grown fond of sparring and general combat practice over the course of his involvement in the militia. Otherwise, any way he can work with his hooves, be it helping in construction or helping out on a farm, gives him a fair bit of satisfaction all the same, doubly so if he feels it's making a significant difference. Just about any meal with daisies involved and placed near this stallion's muzzle will likely be devoured in less than a minute.
Dislikes: As a hard-working colt, he doesn't hold much care or praise over slackers, be they locals or even his siblings. He'll likely spit out hay if he ever allowed it to pass his lips, despising the bland flavour if not the texture. Lastly, he holds little regard for zealotry, only barely able to brush aside the intensity of his sister's let alone any other source.
Equipment: Stalwart Tower Shield, a large tower shield with greater force absorbtion than deflection and a dull pike at the bottom to let it 'root' in the ground.
Character Personality: During the calmest times, Hoplite comes across as rather sheltered and self-reflective, often looking as though he was waiting for an oncoming storm. His actions are often deliberately pondered over before they're followed through, making him seem slow of mind and wit.
During moments of stress or intensity, he becomes highly defensive of himself and his allies, abandoning his earlier deliberateness in favour of faster response times. It's rare to anger or stress this colt out, but if it ever occurs then it'll be quite some time before he simmers down.
Almost never far from his sister, Phalanx, he's considered the brawn of the two, his sister becoming the brains. He tends to stay calm and aloof if she's present.
Should he ever be split from her, or otherwise alone, his stress levels slowly rise. He's much less inclined to stay in any form of violent encounter (verbal or physical) if Phalanx isn't present. If the separation persists, Hoplite is often wracked by anxiety or 'panic attacks' that are magnified if he doesn't know where she is.
Bio (optional): (Still in the works)
Note: Due to a night he would rather forget when he was younger, he has red war painting tattooed into his coat.
Other: Brother to Phalanx and Long Haul
