#Gender ; Male
#Species; Earth Pony
#Cutie Mark ; shown in image
#Occupation ; Seamster; he works with clothing and sewing.
#Powers and Abilities ; Spindle is best known for his works of art through clothing. His cutie mark conveys both his love of sewing and how his talent is, as cheesily as one can put it, "sewing love in every stitch."
#Physique ; Slightly larger build, surprisingly so for a pony as shy as he is.
#Mane and fur color and style ; Dark, almost black mane and tail, with his mane short and the tail chopped off to only have a small stub (long manes and tails get in the way of clothing making, after all). His fur is a slate-blue.
#Eye color ; His eyes are a deep pink, almost purple.
#Other appearance details (optional) ;
#Personality ;
Especially true around someone he's never met before, Spindle can very rarely bring his voice to a shouting level. He's extremely shy, which makes him only speak when spoken to -- if approached, he'll be friendly, of course. However, he could know someone's name for years, even, and never speak a word to them. He's the observer, the one that sits in the corner and reads a book, looking up every now and then with curiosity to see what people are doing. He's a people-watcher, as he likes to call it. When approached, he tends to stumble over his words and maybe even get uncomfortable; however, once a person wins his trust, he's more open and a bit more outgoing. He doesn't tend to take compliments well -- if someone says he looks good or something of the sort, he'll lower his head and blush furiously. Spindle isn't very used to being called nice things.
Spin is fairly naive, especially when it comes to things of a sexual nature. He knows he's gay, but that's about it. He's never been kissed or held -- he's had a crush on the same guy for a very long time, so his experience on the subject is fairly limited. He doesn't know too many slang words, and will probably think of a word's innocent counterpart. Although intelligent, he rarely understands sex jokes because his information is so limited. This also means that he's completely oblivious to any advances someone makes on him. If someone begins to flirt, he just thinks they're being nice to him.
Perhaps Spindle most prominent trait is his gentleness. He cares about those he's close to, and if someone is persistent and wants to be his friend, he'll accept it. He worries about everyone constantly and loves to know what's going on with them. He'll give advice if he can (although most of the time he's the one getting the advice) and listen to whatever frets and problems his friends have. However, he tends to blame himself and apologize for any problems they talk to him about, and he carries their burdens around like a cross. He doesn't care much about his own well being, just as long as the people around him are safe and content. He's extremely protective of the people he gets close to, and maybe even gets tiny spurts of bravery if he sees someone harming them with words or punches. He's not one to abandon those he loves; he's as loyal as a dog when it comes to his friends.
Spindle refuses to stand up for himself -- whether it's because of his insecurities, he doesn't want to fight, or doesn't want someone to get hurt in the process, he'll never say anything to an offender. He'll either ignore it or mold into it. He sometimes needs to rely on his friends to stand up for him rather than him doing it for himself. He'd much rather stand up for someone else (with, most likely, a timidly spoken "Hey, that's not very nice of you!") than have to acknowledge the fact that he had been insulted. He's also fairly gullible, especially when it comes to jokes and the like. He'll believe those he trusts without much question, but he'll be quite disappointed if he ever finds out that they're lying to him.
