Blackjack

Blackjack is a white unicorn mare with a black and red mane. She is a quadruped with hooves instead of hands. She was a security mare in the extremely matriarchal Stable 99, located near Hoofington. Her mother Gin Rummy was head of Stable security, a role that Blackjack was set to inherit due to Stable 99's hereditary job role system; as with all mares in the Stable, she grew up without any contact or input with her father, as colts simply filled a reproductive role in society. While she followed security detail, she wasn't the most competent at her job and spent most of her time wishing for something more exciting to do.

Her eyes are contaminated by radiation, giving them a yellow, ghoul-ish glow during times she is irradiated. Due to her security barding, most ponies across the Wasteland recognize her by her nickname "Security." She tends to dislike being called by her title, preferring to just go by Blackjack. Her real name is Go Fish, which she strongly dislikes being called. She wears her security armor from the Stable she grew up in.

She can be very irrational and has a tendency to dive headfirst into conflicts and often makes simple, sometimes nonexistent, plans. She often resorts to improvisation, which tend to end badly. She is willing to turn to drugs to get an edge in combat (until they damaged her heart) and frequently turns to drink to cope with stress and depression; her preferred drink is "Wild Pegasus Whiskey", though she is more than willing to consume any alcohol when not within easy reach.

She used to shoot first and ask questions later when engaged in combat. Following several, notably traumatic, incidents, she changed her combat motto to "I don't want to kill you if I don't have to." She can be a very caring pony to be around and is willing to help anypony in need, though this instinct has been a bane on more than one occasion. The sense of shame she feels for getting innocents killed during her journeys also leads her to show genuine forgiveness to others who have done terrible things.

Blackjack is very charismatic, being able to befriend a wide group of wasteland warriors. Oddly enough they all, herself included, have some sort of emotional problem, having been hurt or damaged in some way. Her guilt for her actions (both before and after entering the Wasteland) is so great that she has suffered a mental breakdown on more than one occasion. She has been diagnosed as having a self-destructive personality, as she continually pushes herself harder into more dangerous situations. All of these issues, and the affects they have had on her friends has lead her to admit that she is unstable and deeply hates herself.

Blackjack is an avid gun enthusiast. Her preferred primary weapon are shotguns for close range combat and assault carbines for mid to long range combat. As a unicorn, she uses her magic to levitate guns and fire them.

Blackjack is bisexual and very sexually active, especially if she's intoxicated. She ends up sleeping with many ponies in the Wasteland, and has plenty of experience.
