Capper

Capper is a cat lord of Abyssinia, a one-time resident of Klugetown, and an ally of Equestria.

Early life
Growing up as a poor nobody in the city of Panthera, Capper was a prolific petty thief, always stealing fish and other foods just to survive and running from the law, but did so joyfully. He did this in the company of several other cats, and the motley group considered each other to be family. Capper was particularly close to Chummer, a tomcat of similar size to himself.

However, his life changed when the city was sacked by the Storm King. During the Siege of Panthera, Capper and Chummer both took up refuge in an airship used by the Storm Army. During a battle between the army and the Knife's Edge crew, the two cats came in contact and befriended the pirates, though as the ship crashed in the battle, they found themselves in the Bone Dry Desert in the Badlands, where they eventually came across Klugetown.

Klugetown and Storm War
Capper would eventually become one of the biggest names in Klugetown, but was also known as the closest thing to a good guy in the entire town, often helping others out - for a price, that is. He later took an interest in the Mane Six and after their arrival in town, and helped them escape the unwanted attentions of Mori and several other residents. Quickly winning over his new acquaintances-with the exception of a jealous Spike and a suspicious -Capper led the group through town to his home. Unfortunately for the ponies, Capper's "kindness" was in fact a ruse, as he intended to turn them over to Verko in order to settle his debts to the crime boss.

While waiting for Verko to arrive, having passed word to him through Needy, Capper listened to his visitors' tales, and was surprised when made some minor repairs to his coat as a way of expressing her gratitude for his help. This made Capper uncomfortable, but not as much as when Twilight discovered information regarding the Queen of the Hippogriffs, whom they had been seeking. Capper attempted to dissuade them with disinformation, and then to prevent them from leaving, offering to help them secure an airship. At that moment, Verko appeared, and Capper's treachery was exposed-and quickly overshadowed by the arrival of Tempest Shadow.

After Twilight and her friends escaped, Tempest and her guards seized Capper, demanding to know where their quarry was heading. Capper, about to reveal all, had a change of heart upon noticing the buttons Rarity had added to his coat. As such, he decided to deceive Tempest, claiming that the ponies and dragon were heading for Black Skull Island. Unfortunately, Tempest insisted that he remain in her custody until she located them. Even more unfortunately, his ruse was quickly exposed when, having befriended Capper's old pirate acquaintances, performed a Sonic Rainboom and thus made their location obvious to Tempest.

His lie exposed, Capper could do little more than stammer in objection as he and the pirates, who had been forced into the Storm King's delivery service, faced the brunt of Tempest's wrath. Despite being caught aboard the pirates' airship as Tempest demolished it with her Unicorn Magic, Capper managed to survive, and with Celaeno and her crew made his way to Basalt Beach. There, they came across Twilight's friends, reeling from her abduction by Tempest. Upon revealing himself, Capper received a less than warm reception, but made a grand show of describing a group of heroes he felt could overcome the challenges they faced. soon brought everycreature down by guessing that he was talking about them.

Despite this, the ponies and dragon soon rallied as Celaeno's crew also revealed themselves, offering to help take the fight to the Storm King. Much to the whole group's surprise, they were then joined by Princess Skystar; their motley crew completed, the heroes set course for Canterlot. Putting his smooth-talking tongue to work, Capper managed to bluff the group past a pair of Storm Guards, the ponies pulling along a large cake that concealed the Ornithians, dragon, and Hippogriff. When Grubber discovered the contents of the cake, Capper joined Rarity in tying up several Storm Guards with a large ribbon. He then joined the ponies and Spike in heading for Canterlot Castle while their allies held off a number of guards.

Confronted with several more, Capper suddenly recognized Spike's status as a dragon, and-with Spike's eager cooperation-began wielding him as a flamethrower. Unfortunately, they overcame their foes only to see a massive storm materialize over the city, the result of the Storm King wielding the magic of the Four Princesses of Equestria. Capper then helped with the aiming of 's Easy Bake Confetti Cannon, which launched the five ponies and Spike into the eye of the storm to assist Twilight. Once the Storm King was defeated, Capper attended the resumed Friendship Festival in celebration, and was presented with a new top hat and cloak by Rarity. He was later seen joining several Storm Creatures in a kick line, before serving as judge of a dance-off with Skystar and.

Pal to Ponies
After aiding in the Battle for Canterlot, Capper remained shady as ever, but also went legit and began to work as a motivational speaker. It was during this period of his life that Capper was requested to perform the biggest heist of his life; to steal from Princess Eris, the lord of Chaos.

Honored Guest, Homeward Bound
During Princess Luna and 's vacation across Equestria, Capper was apparently among the many creatures they encountered. Later, Capper would attend Twilight's coronation as Queen of Equestria. When the Council of Friendship formed teams to visit various locations beyond Equestria, Capper was chosen to join, , , and Trixie in traveling to him homeland of Abyssinia. "Team Fluttershy", as they were dubbed, traveled aboard Captain Celaeno's new airship with Team Rainbow Dash, which was on its way to the Parrot Peaks.

Before and after Capper's group were dropped off at a port on their way to Panthera, Capper was noticeably anxious, and Trixie, recognizing the signs of somecreature uneasy about a destination, inquired about it. At her urging, Capper opened up about his youth.

Personality
Between himself and his friend Chummer, Capper was the more passive and gentle of the two. Though still a proud thief, his illegal acts tended to stop there, while Chummer had a thirst for power and violent nature that eventually drove them apart.

After his brush with the kindness of Rarity, Capper began to rethink his life choices and began to act in a more selfless and even heroic manner.

Abilities
Capper is a skilled thief, expert in sleight-of-hand (or tail, as the case may be). These skills, combined with his quick wits and natural charm, are his primary assets. He primarily turns to these when faced with danger, seeking to outthink opponents rather than attempt to challenge them physically.
