Lyra used to be a normal mare. She was just going to be a researcher of the magical leylines that crisscrossed the country of Equestria. But something went wrong. At the grand opening of the newest Sparkle Generator- it exploded and covered the city in a haze of pure and concentrated mana. Now she's one of the many new mutants that have risen from the magical shockwave and she's ready to help the city as the Handler.

And juggling her life of being the head researcher of the hypothetical fallout and needing to fight crime can be rather draining on a mare. Step one: find Twilight Sparkle. Step two: find a good place to hideout and build new technology.
