Nickname/Alias(es): Professor, Geist
Race: Unicorn
Gender: Male
Age: Young Adult
-Physical Stuff-
Pelt Color: Cool Grey
Mane/Tail Color and Style: A lighter shade of blue with a white highlight streaking in his mane. He wears his mane short and spiky while the end of his tail looks like it had been on fire before.

Cutie Mark: Three interlocking gears with green spectral wisps rising from them.
Other Scars/Markings: a ring of four small dot-like scars on both his forelegs.
Physique: Average height and slightly muscular
-Social Stuff-
Current Residence: Formerly University of Canterlot but now resides in Ponyville
Job: Inventor/Paranormal Investigator (To the dismay of his father)
Mother: Ruby Hearts
Father: Professor Iron Cogs
-Personality Stuff-
Likes: Weird gadgets, creating said weird gadgets, the mysteries of the supernatural, telling other ponies tales his experiences in the supernatural.
Dislikes: Apple-based food, neigh-sayers, being told what is best for him, criticism. long-winded lectures/speeches, and interviews.
Motivation: The thrill and excitement of unraveling the secrets of the paranormal and invent items that’ll help him succeed in this endeavor (And to prove his former university teachers, the neigh-sayers, and his father that he isn’t completely crazy)
Strengths: Nights is actually fairly strong as his profession and his perfectionist ways require both a strong mind and strong body, and of course his intelligence involving inventing things and the supernatural goes without saying. As stated before he’s a bit of a perfectionist, so he painstakingly makes sure everything he creates doesn’t backfire. (Takes a bit longer but it’s worth it) And a worthy mention is his sheer determination of not letting others cloud his mind with doubt.
Weaknesses/Flaws: Nights at times can be a bit oblivious to things around him that doesn’t peak his interest, and is either unaware or doesn’t care about the true potential of some of his inventions. He’s also somewhat of a perfectionist when it comes to his inventions, which he has a little too much pride in and can easily be offended when his inventions are, in his mind, disrespected. And so, he becomes rather competitive when his inventions are challenged. Also as one would obviously think, Nights is very superstitious.
Fears: That his father and teachers were right about him wasting his talents on the paranormal, apple-based dishes.
Overall Persona: Nights is a eccentric one, pure and simple. He sees inspiration in places other ponies might not think inspire ideas, and use said inspiration to invent wondrous things such as his patented ‘Mechanical Diamond Dog prosthetic hands.’ However he does not invent them because they’ll better the world but because he’s far too meticulous to trust in the quality that his own magic can provide for his true passion. Some would say this is tad selfish, some would even plain out tell him his inventions are useless or, as his father would say “A complete waste of talent,” as for Nights rebuttal… He sold the design of his mechanical hands to a medical company while retaining all rights to said design and subsequently dropped out of the university of Canterlot. So it’s safe to say, he doesn’t enjoy ponies telling him what’s right for him nor criticism. But he doesn’t simply do things just to prove a point; no he did all this for the one thing that brings warmth to his heart… Paranormal Investigation! As to how he discovered this talent, let's just say he got a very, very, very good scare.
However, outside his ‘inventing time’ or being criticized; Nights is highly energetic and sociable; sometimes a bit too energetic but that’s just part of his eccentricity. When it comes right down to it, Nights is a good-hearted pony, which despite his pride; enjoys having a good time with his friends because quite frankly, that’s all he really wants: to enjoy his life his way.
