Bio:
Jupiter is a proud, pompous, and oftentimes stuck-up unicorn. Being the son of two incredibly powerful unicorns (oh, and one is Princess Twilight’s graduate and the other is an internationally famous wizard) he’s got quite a bit to live up to. Jupiter spends his nights staring through a telescope, scribbling neat notes in his journal. He has made quite a name for himself in the field of astronomy, namely, his study of the stars. This stallion is deeply intelligent, and has devoted a good majority of his life to his studies.
Jupiter went to the same private school as Princess Dawn Star. There, he poured himself into strengthening his magic and his mind. He took a keen interest into the work of Princess Luna herself, fascinated by the stars she raises into the sky each night. He has a deep appreciation for the world beyond their own, the plants and stars that were so near, yet so far. And so powerful. Jupiter’s trained himself to find fragments of fallen stars and other celestial bodies. He uses his knowledge in astronomy to identify which fragment came from which star. He’s discovered a mere fraction of the power the stars themselves can hold. And he knows that they hold far more.
Jupiter is ambitious, talented, and takes great pride in his work. Like Dawn, he comes from a pair of very prestigious and talented parents. So, he has a lot to live up to. He, too, is determined to make his mark on the world. However, the notion of such can make him seem a tad obsessed. He’s going to leave his hoofprint on Equestria someday. He’s going to help the world, and be held in the honor worthy of his parents. Because of such, it can take quite a bit of coaxing to get him to join in most festivities when he’s studying (which is most of the time). Nonetheless, Jupiter does seem to appreciate the company of those around him, though some are on a mere “tolerate-only” level.
He’s incredibly close with Dawn Star. She’s one of the few ponies he genuinely, deeply likes. They spent countless hours together, studying and talking about their various fields. Dawn is easy to talk to, and her own intelligence never fails to impress him (although he doesn’t often admit it). They were often cast aside in their school as “nerds.” But in all honesty, Jupiter didn’t mind. It just meant that he could spent more time with the Princess. Seeing as how she’s going to start studying to be a princess, and is going to be away all the time…
