Bio:  
Diamond is one interesting, rather mysterious colt. This fellow was found as an extremely young foal by Captain of the Royal Guard, Tempest Berrytwist. While out on patrol outside Trottingham, Tempest came across a cabin billowing with fire and smoke, with a tiny toddler lying on the ground outside with terrible burns. Tempest is horrified and believes the foal to be dead, but upon approach, she sees him take the tiniest, wheeziest breath. Tempest rushes him to the hospital, and they’re luckily able to save the foal, but are sadly unable to do much about the scarring along his face, neck and leg. The colt, dubbed “Diamond” by Tempest, grows up in an orphanage in Trottingham with other abandoned foals. The orphanage is quite a nice institution, but the poor fellow is always passed up for adoption. That is, until the pony who’s been keeping an eye on him for the past thirteen years approaches him with her (rather strange) husband Scorpan and asks him how he would like to live with them.
 

 
And, thus, Diamond has lived with his adopted parents in Canterlot to this day. He is very quiet and keeps to himself a good majority of the time. He wears a hood and sleeves when he’s out of either his home or the mine, not wanting to be judged for his scars. Diamond feels most comfortable when he’s working in Canterlot’s premiere diamond and sapphire mine. He’s quite admired by his colleagues for his ability to find the largest, clearest gems without the use of magic. Diamond merely looks for the telltale signs of a large gem deposit, and is very detail-oriented, which is quite useful when searching for the next big load. One of his personal finds even sits in Princess Cadence’s anniversary pendant. However, when he travels to Ponyville to source out their newly-opened emerald mine and discovers a menagerie of friends (whether he asks for them or not!) He especially catches the cloudy eye of a certain blue farm mare, and the two quickly become fast friends.
