==Personality==
"What kind of pony am I? Well... a gentlecolt should let his deeds let do the talking, but, if you insist, who am I to argue..."

"Father always insisted that I have to be a kind pony, kind to those who need or deserve it. That... if I'll be a kind person, I'll know what to do to whom. What I always disliked about this is... how do you know that you are kind? What is the... metric to measure this against?"

"I don't know. I doubt anypony knows, but I try to help others if I can. I wouldn't risk my life for a complete stranger, but if is there a way to lessen the suffering in his life... well, why not help? On the other hoof, father told me to never refuse an offer to help me. No need to do everything if there is someone else to do it for you, when you can allow it."

"I'd say that... being brought up by a singer and irresponsible scavenger learned me to not take things seriously... take what you can, yes, but give what you can too. Worst come worse, it will kill you. So what?"

Shrapnel starts to laugh.


==History==
"So... how I got here, you ask? Well... it's not a long story. Well, it is 27 years long story, sure, but in the end...there are not many details worthy of saying."

"I was born into... well, for the lack of better term, let's call it a family, but, frankly... well, no matter. Mother was a unicorn, used to sing in the better bars and establishments around Manehatten. Quite talented. And, well, father was a scavenger."

"They met on one night when mother had a show in Tenpony, father had a really lucky find on one of his trips, and completing several recovery jobs he has been tasked with, found himself with a small pile of caps. Being the irresponsible magnificent fool he was, he thought he could spent one night in some nicer place. The place was, as I suppose you already are suspecting, was the bar my mother was singing. Now, one thing went to another, he gut a little drunk, snuck into her backstage room after her show and started to tell he about his heroic life. And somehow... she liked him enough to go with him one his next journey around the metro stations."

"Now, father specialized in the metro stations. If you were clever and had open eyes, the ghouls are predictable element, so his tactic was to detonate several charges at far away tunnels and lure the ghouls there, giving him time to swoop in and gather the good stuff. The day went well, the two returned with load of valuable loot, got pile of caps in return... and mother liked this life. She said she was bored of the singing anyway. Heh..."

"Life went well for those too, having a dependable partner in this line of work is... invaluable, as you all know, I suppose. So well... that I was born year and half later. Mother of course by that time was staying in Tenpony, not like you can take pregnant mare into scavenging runs, singing for the time again. They both planned to retire at the tower, get away from the metro stations and have a small shop dealing in rare valuables."

"As for my name... mother wanted a singer for her son, father... father just wanted me to be a good pony. So my name is in fact Blue Jazz, but... well, funny how names can turn out sometimes. Anyway, when I got a bit
older, I persuaded dad to take me with him and... to let me push the detonator. And... well, not a singer, in the end. Mother was furious when we got back and I showed her that I earned my cutie mark. She almost strangled dad for being such idiot and taking a... well, she said foal, but I was a buck by that time already. Nevertheless, I got my special talent, and my mother loved me for what I was. The family returned back to business two years later, though only for a while, as I got myself a sister not very long after that. She was a complete opposite of me, clever, patient, knew her way around ponies and their caps. The family seemed that we were ready to truly set up shop, and so we did. Bought a vacant spot in Tenpony and moved in. Business was going well, but... as a true son of my parents, I couldn't stand it. I felt how the boredom of the shopkeeps life drained me of my soul, and so, after a discussion with my parents... Well, they understood me. Said I would be welcome, anytime I would like to return, and to at least show my sorry arse every now and then."

"And so I left to find my own singer... heh..."
