IllustriousQ

In March of 2011, a fairly quiet Brony known as The Illustrious Q watched his first brand new episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, “Over a Barrel”. This was of course after binging the entire first season up to that point. While he was, at the time, content to let other much more interested/energetic people make their mark in the fandom, something was about to happen which would change everything. It wasn’t the Fire Nation attacking, but IDW Publishing announcing a new My Little Pony Comic Series at SDCC 2012 that had arguably as much of an impact on him. Minus the being frozen in ice for a century bit. Never one for half measures, The Illustrious Q swore an oath to collect every single MLP comic produced by IDW on that fateful day. Little did he realize that his quest for perfection would eventually lead him to Equestria Daily as their resident IDW MLP Comic Expert, MLP convention reporter, and chief interviewer!

After winning a handful of Judge’s Awards at cons in the 00’s, they took the road of being too broke and busy to cosplay for several years, before becoming too intimidated to compete at larger cons after moving to the PNW in 2014. After honing their craft for about two decades and being a lurker MLP fan for even longer, Vee finally competed in their first My Little Pony cosplay competition at EFNW 2023, winning Best in Show.

They work primarily with lasers, which they admit is one of the coolest things to say to new acquaintances.
