Applejack



A hard-working, dependable earth pony and the bearer of the Element of Honesty.

Backstory
Applejack was born in Ponyville and has lived there for most of her life. However, as a foal she fancied something more glamorous than farm life and left Sweet Apple Acres to live with her aunt and uncle in Manehattan. The big city socialite lifestyle ultimately did not suit her and she became homesick, so she returned to the farm and got her cutie mark, three red apples. She has worked the farm ever since. She is also one of Twilight Sparkle's closest friends, making her part of the group that has repeatedly saved Equestria from various threats.

Apearance
Orange coat, pale yellow mane and tail usually tied up with red hair ties, white freckles, green eyes, cutie mark of red apples, and usually wears a tan cowboy hat.

Personality
Applejack is usually the practical and responsible member of the group. She is hard-working and determined, although that can occasionally bleed right over into being stubborn. She is both caring and honest by nature, but these traits can lead her to be overprotective (especially towards her younger sister) or blunt to the point of seeming rude/mean. She prides herself on being "the most dependable of ponies," and will even lie and compromise her own honesty to avoid disappointing others from time to time. While AJ can be abrasive towards insults, she usually responds to compliments modestly. She has no qualms with getting dirty in the process of working, much to Rarity's dismay.

Job
Applejack works the family farm. Her regular tasks include things like harvesting crops, plowing fields, tending to farm animals, baking apple-based products, and handling deliveries and sales. It has been noted that she takes a leadership role within her family, helping them all stay organized and on schedule. The Apple family has also been known to provide catering for events in Ponyville, as well as sell cider seasonally.
