My Little Pony: Murder is Mystery {Open and Accepting!}

[originals]

Murder...

has struck Equestria. Oh, do forgive me! I'm Twilight Sparkle, here to brief you on the situation before you join in. As you may or may not know, our dearly loved Zecora was found struck down within her own Everfree home. I'll let the file explain the rest of the situation, but it's not pretty. Not pretty at all.
Art is not mine. This is PG-13.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Zecora Rime
Age: 34
Birth Date: 970 After Luna's Banishment (ALB)
Cause of Death: See coroner's report.
Evidence: The following were found at the scene: a large pink bow, a large scattering of Poison Joke, an orange feather, purple hair, and a calendar with the date April 1st circled in red.
Suspects: Apple Bloom is currently held in custody at the Ponyville Youth Detention Center (PYDC) until further information can be found. A friend of hers, Scootaloo, is also in custody due to the orange feather and purple hair that remains untested for DNA results. Visiting is permitted from noon to five PM.
Date of Investigation: October 27 1004 ALB— Unknown 00 0000 ALB

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She appears to have died of an overdose of Poison Joke, which is toxic when ingested in the smallest amounts or when breathed in for too long. We'd typically assume this was a slip-up, but she's the town witch doctor. She doesn't slip up.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So you see? We have quite the problem on our hooves. While murders are uncommon, they aren't unheard of. If anything, this is shocking because there's never been a murder in Ponyville. Usually they hit Fillydelphia, Las Pegasus, or Trottingham on occasion. The ponies of Ponyville won't be able to help much with the case, but we've been grilling the Cutie Mark Crusaders incessantly all day. Maybe the ponies that live near the Everfree can help though. We're still uncertain on the process,b ut we appreciate any help we can get!

Rules for the Users
1. Please take only one character from each "Category" until later notice.
2. This is lower-ended semi-lit. I expect two descriptive sentences excluding conversation, or five lines of conversation.
3. While this is a PG-13 roleplay, keep the discussion of blood and violence limited.
4. This isn't a romance. If both of you want to ship each other, go ahead. But both must agree, and it can't become the main plot.
5. The murderer is already chosen. Don't ask to be the murderer, and don't ask who the murderer is.
6. No major plot changes.
7. Stay in character. If you are severely out of character, expect a warning.
8. No OCs.
9. I may and probably will add rules later on.
