TTD Entry by Thyme

Before the outbreak, Thyme used to cart homegrown herbs to nearby villages. Now that Equestria is filled with zombies, he's expanded his wares a bit, now selling and trading supplies and information at outposts across Equestria via cloudcart (essentially just a wooden cart supported by clouds rather than wheels).

Thyme's weapon of choice is a throwing axe, mostly because he spends most of his time in the air and the quickest way to down a pegasus trotter is to chop off either wing.

@Blast: Well, I could probably spare you a few rounds, and I know there's a junkyard a bit west of here. It's mostly been picked clean, but you'll probably find some scrap metal.

So I guess I'll add some backstory or whatever:

I lived a bit out from the nearest town, so I didn't realize zombies actually took over Equestria until a few days after. So when I saw four of the things under my house, I kinda panicked. The only things I could find as weapons were a few kitchen knives and two jars of acid rain, which I hastily shoved into a saddlebag before taking off for civilization.

Every house was empty. I started busting open doors, but found nothing but an old unicorn's tome and a hatchet. Fortunately for me, a few homes had stockpiles of food. I thought to myself. If every town was like this, the cloud cities would be in less immediate danger, but soon they would start to starve. I could take the abandoned cans here and trade for whatever a survivor might need... Soon, I started the trek home to get my cart.

Yeah, I'm playing Awakening right now, so I ended up using the Short Axe's design for this. It's probably my favorite axe in the game. :3
