Our monthly character feature for October, Nightshade, bodyguard and assassin of the Lunar Republic.

Nightshade is the leader of Princess Lunas elite night guard, and acts as both a bodyguard to her military commanders and an espionage agent for the kingdoms darker operations. She is fiercely loyal to the princess, and one of the leaders of the New Lunar Republic forces after the beginning of the civil war. She tends to be very grim and resolute, having participated in operations that the majority of Equestria will never know existed, however she can be somewhat snarky and lighthearted to those that she respects.

Though she acts incredibly loyal to Luna, instantly following the lead of her princess when the country split, she is in fact a little untrusting of the princess, constantly afraid that she will return to the dark persona of Nightmare Moon. To that end, Nightshade stays so close to her princess not only out of honor, but to keep an eye on her. This makes her undyingly loyal to Eclipse in actuality, who is the only pony she believes can restore equality to Equestria should the princess fall to darkness.
