Cutie Mark Crusaders

he Cutie Mark Crusaders (CMC or simply the Crusaders for short) is a club consisting of Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle formed in Call of the Cutie, with Babs Seed joining in One Bad Apple, Imp joining in the IDW comics' My Little Pony Micro-Series Issue #7, Gabby joining in The Fault in Our Cutie Marks, and Lilymoon joining in Ponyville Mysteries: The Tail of the Timberwolf. Their unity is based on mostly being called "blank flanks", ponies who have not yet gotten their cutie marks; Imp, rather than being a blank flank pony, is a Mimicker who has not yet settled on one form, Gabby is a griffon, and Lilymoon already has her cutie mark at the time of her joining.
