A unicorn mare who works for the Murdocks Press Corps as their lead Solar reporter, although she does interact with Luna during joint conferences and deliberate summons. Her job is simple: make the Diarchy look bad, no matter what the situation, cost, or reality -- which is a little easier to do in a world which has yet to figure out the term 'libel law'. She is described in ''FanFic/DailyEquestriaLifeWithMonsterGirl'' as having a blue coat with white mane/tail and red eyes (each a shade ''off'' from the true). Her horn is shorter and sharper than the average unicorn's, and only the cruelty of nature has kept her teeth from appropriate points.
