My name is Blackest Skyline, and I am a unicorn residing in Canterlot in the country of Equestria. I should start with appearances; my body colour is all black, and so is my long and shaggy mane and tail - except for one small detail; there is a thick blood stain running through my mane. I won't go into the story about how it appeared - that's for another time - but I have tried to wash it out... in vain. Nonetheless, it looked pretty awesome, judging by the reactions I got from passerbys, so I decided to keep it.
My special talent is that I'm a guitarist. Not in the traditional sense - I was trained in the course of metal. I am not in a band as of now, and I'm still pretty underground in comparison to many contemprary groups. I just enjoy playing my guitar, and I'm... okay at what I do. Problem is that there has been nothing to do of recent. As I have already pointed out, I have no band, and nopony is hiring; I'm confined to my little house on the outskirts of Canterlot, endlessly strumming away, hoping that somepony will notice.
Then I saw this being advertised; the Running Of The Leaves. I was never the sportiest colt when I was at school - even then, I knew music was my passion - but I gave everything my best, and it usually made me finish well. So I decided that this was my opportunity to get my name out there. Perhaps ponies will take notice; perhaps they won't. Regardless, this is not about victory; I just want to finish, that's all. I just hope the Jaguar XJ220 doesn't break down...
