Character[]
Lantern Shine is a timid, yet strong-willed pink pony, a bit feminine in pose and appearance, living in the Everfree Forest's heart. He is terrified of just about anything, being jumpy and nervous yet he insists on staying as a guide and rescue effort because according to him, he "knows the area better than anypony." He has heavy self-confidence issues and is often easily disheartened and intimidated. However, he possesses a very strong sense of duty and has often overcome these shortcomings to ensure the safety of others.
Cutie Mark[]
Lantern's cutie mark is an archaic lantern with a pair of white,spread wings on either side. This is in tune with his method of scouting and leading other creatures to safety, flying through the sky with his signature lantern in his mouth. It symbolizes a guiding light through danger into a safer land.
