**Twistknot** is a female super under the Delta Alpha branch. She uses natural ribbon manipulation powers and is a B-ranked disruptor. As an ex-member of the late Phoenix Light Corporation, she is now a member of the current Phoenix Light squadron.

## Biography

### Appearance

Twistknot is a slim young mare of average height with a pale yellow coat and a long pink mane that she keeps tied back in a messy bun. Her uniform consists of a sleeveless pink bodysuit and a hot pink mask that causes her eyes to appear entirely pastel pink. Despite being a coreless super, Twistknot has power markings that manifest in the form of pink colouration in her hooves and a pink ribbon pattern that moves up her legs in a fading gradient.

### Personality

Twistknot is an upbeat and positive young mare within the Phoenix Light squadron, having a habit of mothering her teammates despite her younger age. She is rather sociable and likes to hang out with others, frequently visiting the Beta through Theta buildings to familiarize herself with all members of Delta Host. While she can occasionally be naïve and lose focus on the battlefield, she does her best to fight with determination.

### Powers & Abilities

Twistknot utilizes natural ribbon manipulation abilities in a disruptor position, tangling and entrapping her opponents in her ribbons. Her most common attack methods consist of setting ribbon traps that bind her enemies, cocooning her enemies in ribbons and restraining their limbs so that her allies may attack without resistance. Because of her restraining capabilities, Twistknot is often used to end a fight quickly.
