Applejack | My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic | Not Reserved
Nickname: Jordan
Age: 31
Personal LJ/DW:
Method of Contact:[AIM] akaiLV
Characters Played: Formally Madoka @ TVK, a few @ Mayfield
Character Info:
Name: Applejack
Age: There isn't a specific age given, but Applejack seems rather mature and acts older than most of the other characters. I'd estimate she'd be in her late 20s, like 25 or 28 as a human.
Canon: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Pull Point: From the end of the second season, shortly after the Royal Wedding.
Background Info:
History: Applejack's history
Personality:
Honest, reliable, and hard-working. That's Applejack in a nutshell and she doesn't really mind it all.
She's believes in honesty and fairness, almost to a fault as she can be pretty blunt or when she needs to keep a secret (she doesn't have much of a poker face). Because of this though, she is very straightforward and trustworthy, even able to convince Twilight when she was hanging from a cliff that all she had to do was let go and she'd be safe. On the other hoof, she expects that same sort of honesty and fairness from others, and can get pretty ill-tempered when others cheat, like how upset she got at Rainbow Dash during the Iron Pony competition.
She's very hard-working, caring for her family's farm and orchard with only some help from her brother as well as running the business of selling the apples. She does this all so as to provide for her family who she deeply cares about. She's very protective of her younger sister Apple Bloom, and likes to keep an eye on her, knowing how much she can get into trouble. While this may at times leave Apple Bloom feeling overprotected, it does show how caring Applejack is, to the point that even when AJ was shrunk down to the size of a mouse, she still chased after Apple Bloom to "rescue" her.
She is glad people consider her reliable, and is always ready to lend a hoof if she can to her friends, families, and others. But again, she might take this too far and bite off more than she can chew, as shown in one episode where she tries to harvest all the apples in her orchard herself while still helping her friends with small tasks at the same time. This in a way shows the other side of her personality, her pride and stubbornness. She was working herself to death, exhausted, and falling asleep standing up, and yet she still wouldn't accept help until the very end. This isn't the only time her pride and stubbornness have caused trouble though, as when she was trying to negotiate between the Buffalo and Settler ponies of Appleloosa, she escalated the tension because she felt they were "right."
All in all, Applejack is a strong, honest friend who's toughest critic might be herself. She's confident in her abilities and proud of the way she does things. And while at times these beliefs might cause her trouble, she is always first to realize her mistakes and apologize or make amends for it. As such, this gives her a more mature, older sister personality to other ponies, which she is happy to be.
Game Specific:
Arcana: Temperance
Justification: Applejack is a balanced and straightforward pony, one who is always there to offer help and suggestions to any situations. Her nurturing nature, her belief in fairness, and optimism are all traits of Temperance in the upright position. Meanwhile, her pride in doing things one specific way, looking down on ways she sees ineffective, or how much she hates to hold still when she can take a hooves on approach are aspects of an inverted Temperance.
Samples:
First Person Sample: A Dear_mun post.
Third Person Sample: Here's one, and as a human too!
A lot of other samples I could give for Applejack would be found on Mayfield under her character tag.
