These are some of the current characters, outside of those in ponyville, that I have down. Arar- Captain of the second company of the famed Grey Knights, forms a friendship with Rashall and the other exarchs of Sar-Neith and keeps a death wish to the companies last captain, captain Silvermane to find his son. Atolli- Leader of the ranger detachment that first stumble into Equestria. Atolli is a ranger friend of Rashall's, but both could almost be mistaken for brothers because of how much they stick close to one another. Rhinestar- Atolli's second in command, Rhinestar is usually very quiet, but when he speaks it is often something of great importance and thus all listen to him with dedication. Blinkmoth- Exarch of the Shadowy Depth's Warp Spider temple Blinkmoth is another friend of Rashall's, but the two feel as though the connection goes deeper than that. In the side story "Honor and Sacrifice" Blinkmoth's unit teleports a mysterious object out of an unknown facility. Corvus- Corvus has known Rashall for a long time, but failed to find a path to go into, instead under his friends guidance he becomes an apprentice to the Warrior Priest Wolf-n-Mane. DJ Star- Star is a very odd pony in that she is like Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, she is an Alicorn, Unlike both of the Princesses though she would rather push her limits trying to prove her self to others. Whether it be playing her custom music to a small crowed or trying to out do even Rainbow dash in rounding up clouds she will continue to try and find out what her true talent is. Hawkeye- Hawkeye only just recently graduated from Cloudsdale when Rashall arrives in Ponyville. But she does not know what she is to do with herself, she continually questions herself and her abilities and hopes to one day meet a pony that can show her a true path. Hocus- Hocus and Katerina are two of the closest friends known in Ponyville, many see them together so much that they believe that they are actually sisters. The two have been best friends as long as they can remember and both of them arrived in ponyville because of the same reason Rashall does, only these two made the journey alone and without anypony older than them. This shows that these two can overcome just about anything together. Katerina- Like stated above, Katerina has known Hocus for almost her entire life, but she knows something that all others do not, and it's that Hocus tends to stare out into empty space. On one such incident they had come to a crossroads and did not know which way to go, until that is Hocus told her to go down the left branch with her, Katerina was about to question her friend when Hocus told her to have faith in her. A day later and they wound up in Equestria, never again did Katerina try to question her friend. Suntide- Suntide is a Pegasus pony that is trying to prove her worth to all the other pegasus ponies in Cloudsdale, but finds that she is continually made fun of. She later meets up with Katerina and Hocus and becomes best friends with both of them. Maguna- Maguna is a grim pony after a fashion that is, he is the exarch of the Reaching Darkness temple of the Dark Reapers aspect shrine. He along with the other exarchs made a bond to forever protect Rashall should they ever find him. After the death of the queen of Sar-Neith he joins his friend Tyrith aboard the Empires Retribution and there meets up with Blinkmoth, Chokia, Uldrak, Spiritrunner, and Blacksun. Together they represent the rest of the Eldar in the known world. Tyrith- Tyrith served as an Autarch during the last years of the Eldar's decline. she lead more than one force into the bowls of the enemies lair only to return with a handful left, after which she resigned from her duties to become an exarch of the Shrieking Winds temple of the Swooping Hawks aspect temple. Like the others she too looks for Rashall wherever the winds might take her. Uldrak- Uldrak was born into a wealthy family in Sar-Neith and went to school with the other exarchs including Rashall and Corvus. When the fillies at the time were told to choose their most likely aspect Uldrak chose the Avenging Heavens temple of the Dire Avengers aspect shrine. He took up the call to defend Rashall with his life after learning that he had made fun of his Lord's son and swore an oath of repentance, an oath that he holds until this day. Sicarus- Sicarus is captain of the second company of the Ultramarines chapter that is outside of Ultramare, he has been sent on a mission to find what his Chapter Master says is the salvation of the Empire. Sicarus and Rashall met each other during the war for Misona during which the young Ultramarine sergeant was saved by Rashall who was exarch of the Striking Scorpions at the time. Ever since that day Sicarus has sworn to uphold the friendship that he made that day and that if ever Rashall needed the backing of the Ultramarines that he would have it in the form of the second company. Chokia- Chokia is the Rear Admiral of the remnant of the Imperial Second Fleet, and serves and lives aboard his flagship the Empires Retribution. He swore to the lord of Sar-Neith and to the Last Emperor to protect Rashall and to give him any support that he needed. Wolf-n-Mane- Wolf-n-Mane is one of the last Warrior Priests known to exist since the Empires destruction. Wherever he goes he rallies the Empires people to move to Equestria where he says "Your next Lord awaits." Nopony knows what this means, but then again they do not wish to question the word of a Warrior Priest. Skyblue- Skyblue is a pony that likes to show off his talent to perform acrobats in the air. He preformed so much in the Empire that the Last Emperor himself gave him a squad of six ponies to train into a performance team.However when the Great War emerged Skyblue swore that he and his team would go where they were needed and fend off any attacks. In one such instance he covered a column of Imperial Guardswolves as they fell back across a river, along side of the Imperial Regiment was a small strike force of Cataphracts under the command of the Young Commander Yurtz. Skyblue noticed that one of the cataphracts had staid behind and went to investigate, he found Rashall covering the retreat of two wounded guardwolves. Skyblue told his squad to go and get reinforcements while he stayed behind and helped Rashall and the two guardwolves stand their ground. When Yurtz and the Lord General of the Imperial Regiment learned of what was going on they quickly counter attacked in order to help the four stranded survivors. When the counter attack came they found only Skyblue and Rashall standing the two guardwolves had passed away, both still holding their weapons in hand ready for the next enemy wave. Rashall and Skyblue became friends that day and both vowed that they would never again fail the wounded or a civilian while they lived. Skyblue called his team the Blue Angels as wherever they went the sky turned blue and the forces on the ground called them their guardian angels. Rashall Firemane- Rashall is the last known Eldar High Lord in existence, and this fact is never far from his mind. He feels alone in the world, but knows that fate has something in store for him. Rashall also believes that everypony has a star in the sky. Rashall is very mysterious and normally keeps to himself most of the time, but if something threatens his friends or those he swears to protect he will give his life in order to see that they are protected. Blacksun- Blacksun is the brother of Spiritrunner and is the exarch of the Swift Strike temple of the Guardian aspect shrine. He and his sister are both wolves that have pledged themselves to Sar-Neith. Like the other exarchs Blacksun too pledges his live to guarding and finding Rashall and bringing back they Eldar way. Spiritrunner- Spiritrunner joined the Singers of War shrine of the Howling Banshee aspect temple. She like her brother took the oath to forever protect Rashall should she find him again. thats it so far if you need descriptions please ask as those are still work in progress.
Are these related to a fanfic you're writing? Many of the background ponies have unofficial (but widely accepted) names.
Yes these are all in my fanfic, with more to come, some of them I may not post here so you will have to wait until the story comes out. @pixel hope-yes it is a pretty darn big story, has three separate parts to it the first one that I need to get started typing up is "Part One:Ranger" with the other parts to be named as they come out.
