Introduction · · ·
Cactus isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, but she does get the job done... Somehow. She is a tank that acts before she thinks, making her unreliable without a smarter companion. She does complete missions with a solid B-, which is enough for her.
This green australian alicorn is witty and charismatic regardless of her thick, surprisingly functioning skull. She is built like a tank, seemingly able to run someone over, maybe not even realizing it. Her character is for comedic relief, which is what anybody would want in a depressing fallout.

Personality · · ·
The green alicorn is a very charismatic and laid back mare, but easily to be determined as not the brightest. Cactus can be seen as cocky and determined, being the life of the party for whoever she is around. Unlike most mercenaries, she doesn’t take on the job too seriously.
Determined
Cactus is determined and dedicated when it comes to work, which helps when someone needs a raise of hooves for a mission.
Cocky
Her confidence can sometimes come off as cockiness, which can be irritating in the work environment.
Impulsive
She tends to act on instinct rather than careful planning, hence why she scores low in intelligence. You'll probably find her injured in the most comically cartoonish way.
Lively
Cactus brings life and energy to any gathering or group she's a part of, brightening any room she walks into. This also helps the work ethic with her peers.
Resourceful
As a mercenary, she's obligated to be resourceful and make the most of what she has. Luckily, this has became a habit of hers.
Relaxed
She maintains a relaxed demeanor most of the time, even in tense situations. This is often because she does not understand the severity of a situation, which can be hilarious or aggravating.

Time to make these raiders see more stars than the Outback night sky!

Backstory · · ·
Cactus lived a pretty normal life as a regular pony then alicorn in the span of about more or less 200 years; witnessed the world nearly end, became one with Unity, saw its downfall, and resorted to become a mercenary. Cactus's life wasn't very eventful otherwise. She's seen back and forth battles between Enclave and the Steel Rangers, seen Raiders stab and bite each other, and plenty more. Though, she was always on the sidelines to watch... Until being part of Archaic, an abandoned faction that was once driven by Alicorn mercenaries... It began her path as a gun-for-hire, and to this day she remains to shoot and kill for caps.
Archaic Beginnings · · ·
Cactus begun mercenary business with a now disbanded alicorn mercenary group called "Archaic". She was fresh into the world of hitmen, though acting like she knew what she was doing. She didn't make friends in Archaic, but she did learn crucial things in order to persue the life as a successful mercenary. However, she does not talk about her life with Archaic often solely because she was hardly present.
As Archaic ran business as usual, Cactus went down her own route; a route that wasn't so lucky.
Cactus fell victim to capture by another alicorn, a story that Cactus herself is stumped in talking about. The only remnant that outlives that memory is a scar engraved on her left flank.
Improvised Mercenary Parliament (I.M.P.) · · ·
Once Archaic was broken apart, Cactus was one of the many mercenaries who parted ways from the faction. She was without a business, thus resorted to make her own temporarily. She spent some of her time doing missions on her own based off of her hires, while also making new, friendly acquaintances. This helped Cactus develop what everyone loved most about: her charismatic and lively personality.
This went on for some time before her eyes laid on a new alicorn mercenary community: I.M.P. She wasn't tempted by the idea of this however, recollecting her suppressed memories of the last time she was part of an alicorn-only merc family. But, you think she was going to thoroughly think it through? Nope. She locked hooves with the parliament, and locked lips with a blue alicorn, Woozy.
She doesn't regret the decision to joining forces with I.M.P., but certainly made some embarrassing choices that would haunt her for the rest of her life. But, who cares? This is Cactus!
