Talent: Turning Noise, chaos, and discord into a bittersweet symphony. Grim Melody's music sets the hearts of all who hear it to ease but reminds them of an unfortunate event and brings them to tears.
Family: Grim Melody is the son of Fluttershy and Discord but considers all of Fluttershy's friends to be family. He is especially close to Rarity.
Personality: Grim Melody is a shy little pony. He is often rejected by most ponies his age because of his odd looks. Grim Melody keeps to himself most of the time, creating music in the forest, among the animals there who appreciate it the most. Grim Melody often helps his Aunt Rarity in her salon, creating designs of beautiful but dark flair. Most of the designs Rarity keeps in her files to bring to life around Halloween, but she is always willing to help her nephew create his own clothes that he wears with confidence and elegance. Rarity takes Grim Melody to all of the finest affairs with her. She always introduces him as her Niece Melody and he is usually the most sought out attendee to dance with. Viewed as a female people find Grim Melody exotic and enticing. Viewed as a male, people keep their distance from him. Grim Melody, to most people, has a dream of becoming a Wonder Bolt, much to his Aunt Rainbow Dash's delight. Only his Aunt Rarity knows his true dream, to become a famous fashion designer.
Mission accomplished!
