Wavelength was a research associate in a research facility known as the Western Great Plains Atomic Research Center, located in the White Tail Woods west of Ponyville. He acted as one of the muscles around the place, handling such fields as hazardous materials handling, heavy lifting where robotic lifters are unable to access, and general errands. Though he was almost constantly in classified areas when on-duty, he usually didn't learn anything about the materials he handled other than the procedures for handling them. He is currently retired, and was living with his wife in Ponyville raising a daughter. This daughter has grown old enough to care for herself; Wavelength and his wife plan to return to their jobs after ten years of retirement, which were spent sending the filly to school and providing constant parental guidance. They are currently in the process of getting her career started with the simple first step of getting a job.
When on-duty, Wavelength would most often have been seen wearing a specialized hazardous environment suit. This suit extended safe radiation exposure, protected against piercing/crushing/blunt/slashing damage measuring somewhere near one ton, provided clean air filter for unhealthy conditions with separate oxygen tank for hazardous atmosphere, included a fire retardant nozzle, and provided a scientific heads-up display with a helmet-mounted sensor relaying varying data ranging from molecular analysis to the wearer's own altitude from sea level. Due to his age, Wavelength's stature hasn't changed notably, so he will likely be reassigned this same environment suit when he returns to work at the research center.
Candycane, a mare who used to make her living off of a candy stand in the Ponyville market square, is Wavelength's wife. For a time, she worked with the food court of the research center, where she contributed to the dessert servings and picked up skills for cooking various main courses and other delicacies. She currently lives with Wavelength in Ponyville, helping him to raise their daughter. When they return to work, she will join a new division at the research center developing new forms of medicine.
Wavelength and Candycane have one daughter, currently of the age 19, named Confetty. The fact that she's been making one-meter aluminum lathe-spun rockets fly by remote control for nearly a mile at her age suggests that she'll be producing something that goes orbital very soon. This, combined with her indescribable ambition to learn everything about fire and other forms of plasma, has led her to pursue an apprenticeship in engineering at the research center, where she will combine her talents and innovations with the materials and resources available to the engineering staff. Her dream is to found a new aerospace division and launch site at the research center.
