Dana Simpson is the cartoonist responsible for the syndicated comic strip, and graphic novel series, "Phoebe and Her Unicorn." Before that, she drew the popular webcomic "Ozy and Millie." She's also a Seattle native, and was an Everfree Northwest staff artist for three years (she created EFNW's visor-wearing mascot Front Page).

Igor, as a fan of the show since late 2011, has two long term goals in the fandom. The first is to create fashionable formal-wear accessories with which to allow ponies to be brought into nearly any working environment, and through this to ever so slowly elevate the fashion of the fandom at large. This may be a slow process, but it's certainly a worthwhile one. Now with the addition of two lasers, the inexhaustible pursuit of lasering ponies on all sorts of things is in full swing as well.
The second is, accepting the inevitable AI singularity and our eventual cybernetic overlords, to help make sure that there is pony present there as well. To this end, he has built a virtual reality simulation of Ponyville, with close to a hundred AI ponies, and a slowly expanding series of quests. A demo of this fledgling virtual world will be running at his vendor hall table via an Oculus Rift and the magic that is modern technology. Donning the headset it is possible for anyone to temporarily abandon their current existence and take on the form of a diminutive equine avatar.

Selfie Snapshots aka The Selfie Pony is Everfree Northwest’s legendary Selfie taking horse.
Selfie is on her 10th “Selfie Quest” as she returns to her home con.
If you find Selfie wandering around the con obtaining selfies, don’t be shy. Everypony is welcome to help with the Selfie Quest, and everypony who helps gets a “Selfie Card” with their Selfie Number so they can find it online via Twitter, @TheSelfiePony.

Sethisto is the head pony at Equestria Daily. He’ll post his ponies and there’s nothing you can do about it!!!!! He uses the exclamation point way too much, plays Skype/Discord/Steam social whack-a-mole for one half the day, and digs through emails for the other half.
People seem to think he likes Trixie way too much! To them he says: “Pretty much.”
(Honestly Twilight Sparkle Sweet Velvet is his favorite pony~)
His OC apparently got locked in a cube or something, so have his bat.

CouchCrusader is the product of a stuffed animal's boundless imagination, loosed upon the world to make absurd jokes and make absurd jokes. Aside from providing convention coverage and episode followups on Equestria Daily, Couch also runs Children of Everfree, a Tumblr askblog that makes monsters of the Mane 6.

Around September 2012 Gameleon contacted Sethisto about a little app he was creating to view EQD posts. Over the following 6 months this little app would evolve to become what is now known as the Equestria Daily app, done just in time to be released for the Season 3 finale news.
Let's just say the app was properly stress tested during Gameleon's first few days on the team.
Aside from his app development duties, his contribution to EQD consist of posting minor news posts, and confusing us all with a 7-9 hour time difference and kilometers.

After joining the fandom in March of 2011—and watching Over a Barrel as his first brand new episode—The Illustrious Q was a fairly quiet member of the Brony fandom willing to just enjoy the show and let other more interested/energetic people make their mark in the fandom.
Then the IDW Comic series was announced in July in 2012, and that completely changed. Absorbing any and all pieces of information about the comic series—in addition to buying everything related to that series in sight—The Illustrious Q quickly became one of the fandoms experts on the My Little Pony Comic world. Once he had started interviewing and submitting interviews of the IDW staff to Equestria Daily, it wasn’t long before he was invited aboard as their Comic Expert.

"User" started getting into ponies around 2012 with the now defunct Pony Fortress 2 and Friendship is Gaming online communities and joined up with Equestria Daily in early 2017 as a community administrator who oversees the EQD forums, steam group, Discord (which you should join by the way!) He's considered by many to be a diehard Trixie loyalist and often mistaken for Sethisto himself whether in game or in other chat mediums due to his praise for best pony. Other top tier mares of his include Starlight Glimmer, Sunset Shimmer, and Lightning Dust.

Hailing from the Toronto area in Canada he has a lifelong interest for traveling and that obviously translated over to attending conventions once he became a brony. He enjoys helping out with press work when needed for EQD.

Author of the Wavelengths Timeline (and many others), Project Lead of Gardens of Equestria: This Coming Storm and designer of many a FimFic cover, Novel-Idea discovered MLP:FiM toward the end of Season 3 and thoroughly enjoyed it while everyone else was panicking about technicolor humans and magical wings.
After helping lead the charge to 50K in National Pony Writing Month in 2016, Novel returned in 2017 and orchestrated the greatest NaPoWriMo to date! After NaNo’s success (and only three straightjackets, a new personal record!), Novel stumbled upon the insane idea of helping out Equestria Daily with a deeper coverage of MLP fanfiction. He’s now enjoying his latest straightjacket. It’s purple.
When not in his straightjackets, Novel’s obsessively writing a minimum of 1,000 words a day on his lunch breaks, usually about Sunset Shimmer and/or Shipping and/or Deerponies. When not doing that, he spends time with his wife, Painted Heart and his two daughters, Primary Colour and Sunny Stage.

Oroboro got his start writing Haruhi Suzumiya Fanfiction in 2011, and found his way to the pony fandom in 2013 with a convoluted meta-murder-mystery he couldn't get out of his head. Now, he's found a comfortable niche writing EQG romance/drama fics such as Fractured Sunlight, and shipping Sunset Shimmer with every character that so much as makes eye contact.

If you want someone to blame for your addiction to Sunset Shimmer, he’s probably the root of it all. Someone was dumb enough to give this child a keyboard and a picture of Sunset, and it’s been all downhill ever since. A fanfiction writer since 2012, he’s spent five of the last six years writing long adventures and character analysis of one character. Someone should really take that keyboard from him.

Self-Proclaimed Leader of the Rarity Defense Squad, Monochromatic is widely regarded as the prime example of a ship choosing the author. Predominantly a romance writer, she is responsible for The Enchanted Library series and far too many RariTwi fics. She is also very much like Rarity. Except for the fashion sense. And the vocabulary. And the fabulosity. And the generosity. Actually, she's nothing like her, but isn't perfection a rarity, after all?

TD joined the fandom in early 2013, completing his binge-watch of the first three seasons just in time to get in arguments about how awesome Twilight becoming an alicorn was and how much Applejack and Rarity need to kiss. Since then, he has been drawn into the fanfiction community, and despite his initial resistance to writing fanfiction, has written over 40 stories, the most famous likely being two stories centered around the relationship between Twilight and Celestia - The Stars Ascendant and Forever and Again and Again - as well as the popular comedy Dying To Get There and The Collected Poems of Maud Pie. As an active reviewer, he has reviewed over 1,000 stories, and looks forward to reading the next 1,873 stories on his read later list.

Lea Dabssi, known throughout the fandom as Imalou, is an amazingly talented young artist hailing from France and living in Ireland. Her current work involves character design on a CG feature about a very well known Hasbro franchise as part of the Boulder Media studio based in Dublin, Ireland.
Lea has been drawing seriously since age 11, beginning with her first tablet and Photoshop, and then becoming a freelance concept artist on various secret projects for the game industry and TV series once she started working professionally in 2016. Lea trained at New3Dge art school in Paris for 1 year and has been a part of the My Little Pony fandom since 2011, drawing ponies ever since.
She loves animals and animation - especially The Amazing World of Gumball and the anime, Card Captor Sakura. Her mother is a landscape artist, and her sister is an illustrator, so she comes from a very artsy family. Her favorite vacation spot is the beach near her place in Nantes where she indulges in a true French baguette or pain au chocolat while she dreams that the love of her life will appear with a crepe and okonomiyakis. Her favorite pony is Pinkie Pie, and with a such of love of french pastry, we can’t blame her.
Lea’s artistic inspirations are Gosia Arska, Ryan Lang, Aaron Blaise, Nathan Fowkes along with talent from the pony fandom such as Crookedtrees, Asassinmonkey, Celebi-Yoshi, Cannibalus and Yakovlev-val.

Who is this goofball? And why can’t people stop staring at that mustache? Dusty’s life is a manly checklist. The son of an auto worker (have you driven a Ford lately?), high school and college athlete (baseball, football), former bodyguard and ranch hand, trained Big Time wrestler, and Harley mechanic whose custom motorcycles have appeared on the cover of “Easyriders”. A pessimist would say “he can’t make up his mind”; an optimist would say “no single career is big enough for his mustache”. And he watches a cartoon show intended for little girls. Well, what do you expect from the Manliest Brony in the World? What’s with that? Well, aside from making him grin like someone who just found a twenty dollar bill in his underwear, it’s given him a chance to do what he does best: ham it up. Dusty is known primarily for his former show “Stay Brony My Friends”, his YouTube videos which have gone viral, and separating convention-goers from their money at charity auctions. Dusty fearlessly treads upon the crushed skulls of YouTube trolls and hack journalists as he destroys stereotypes. What he is most proud of, though, is his fans. The finest bronies in the world (his audience… that includes YOU, right?) have come together to raise over 50,000 dollars for a variety of charities. This has also piqued the curiosity of documentary filmmakers. He can be seen in “Thatch and Dial”, a Youtube series he is collaborating on with Andy Stein (Mandopony), as well at the Analyst Anarchy TF2 series with Dr. Wolf and friends. His continued appearances on Bronies React, and new gig as multiple characters on the Fallout Equestria radio play by East Corp. Productions as well as in the animation “Allister and Melody” by Luximus. He co-starred in a student film called “Under” with an on screen roll. And completed his first book narrations in the “Portals of Infinity” series with book 3 “Of Temples and Trials” and book 4 “The Sea of Grass” on both Audible and Ibooks. Stay Brony, my Friends.

Foal Papers, or Foaly to folks who know him, has been in the small personal horse fandom for over seven years, and still isn’t quite sure what to make of the whole thing, or why he keeps getting invited to conventions. That said, he’s incredibly grateful for all the remarkable opportunities it’s afforded him: chances to host panels with the Powers That Be of the pony world, to lend his support to charity auctions and fundraising campaigns, to participate in serious podcasts and silly live-streams… in short, to have repeatedly been in the privileged position to help people make good memories, while also creating some brilliant ones for himself. When he isn’t running around as Star Swirl the Bearded or putting the kettle on for yet another cup of tea, you can find him tweeting too much as @foalpapers. Be excellent to each other.

ILoveKimPossibleAlot (KP) is a YouTube critic, entertainer, and an analyst in the Brony community. Don't let the username fool you, she packs a punch with her content! KP is known for being a funny, lively personality that takes analyzing and talking about character troupes to a fun extreme.

KP has always had a knack for reviewing and analyzing and a general interest in understanding why people are drawn to media. She’s especially drawn to animation shows, and you can see what led her on the path for loving the horse fandom. KP joined the fandom mid-season 3 officially, and unofficially since mid-season 2. What pushed her to get involved and to later make content is her fascination and interest in the character of Discord. Once she found herself passionate about analyzing him, the rest fell into place, and she started making content. Her channel produces a range of short analyzing spotlights, podcasts, reviews, and animations.
She is also an interesting case, because unlike some, KP has a production team that helps her continually produce content. You can find more about that by checking out some of her panels!

KABOOM! It's Josh Scorcher! The fiery joker has been doing YouTube for almost a decade, slowly building his audience while balancing a military career and then college. He is most known for his gaming countdowns where rants, with mini-editorials about a various topic.

Part reviewer, writer, comic artist, and all-around nut, Silver Quill’s role is as mixed as his hippogriff character. Actively participating in the fandom since 2012 through fan comics, Silver gained an audience that followed him to YouTube. His “After the Fact” series takes a comedic look at individual episodes and themes running throughout the series. He serves as an editorial and review contributor to Equestria Daily and recently revived the “Pinkie Pie Says Goodnight” comic series. Some might call him a horse’s patoot, but they’re just stating biological fact.

Greetings and Welcome everyone. I am DRWolf.
I actually started a Youtube channel to work on my voice acting, but it's still a lot of fun finding what inspires me about MLP. This show and the fandom surrounding it has become rather intriguing. Quite unlike anything I've come across before.
Perhaps if you stay awhile, I can help you find some inspiration too.
