Pets work. The main six sans Rainbow Dash have all been shown to have something like a pet. A falcon seems like a strange choice, but it couldn't hurt.

...I dunno if I'd classify Spike as a pet so much as I'd call him Twilight's secretary.

EDIT; Yeah, that's kinda beside the point, isn't it? ^_^;

Hence "something like".

So...what you do guys think? Hat or helmet?

I'm also considering a pet, too, which is pretty much his sidekick.

Hat. Or maybe a Luchador mask?

...I'd like to politely request that Captain Equestria's pet not be another bird, just for the sake of variety. And because I'm worried about sending poor Vanilla Bean into Hitchcock country.

And I think Art should have a more colorful pet than a falcon. Though I suppose it depends on what his art is like. If you want a bird, how about a parakeet?

@Gunheart: For a pet, how about something like a ferret?

Also, for my pony's pet, I want it to be some kind of bird. It's gonna be a female, and I'll probably name her Elaine.

Also, Gelzo, when do you plan on starting this?

I don't have any plans set, but I think we'd have to at least wait until every player has a character ready.

I'm thinking a non-talking fox, like Applejack's dog. Wearing a Red Mage's hat and cape.

Scrounge (4 Score & 7 Years Ago)
#34: Mar 2nd 2011 at 8:37:06 PM

Is that the fox's superhero outfit, or does it always wear that?

Vanilla Bean doesn't have a pet, but she does have a younger sister named Cherry Sprinkle. They're the Sundae Sisters, and they have their own business, an ice cream shop. Oddly enough, Cherry's the more grounded and mature one. Vanilla might be in over her head without her sister to fall back on.

Their superhero outfit. I'm thinking that it's sort of a public secret what the superhero's identity is, but he's completely clueless and everyone just plays along.

I'm thinking Art would have a sister too, but she lives somewhere else, and is also married. She would probably be more athletic than Art. I have no idea what I would call her, but I kind of want to keep up the theme of having Doodle somewhere in their names, so with that in mind, could you guys help me out?

Also, I may have my pet be a Cockatoo.

One of his relatives could be named Yankee and the cockatoo could be Cocka.

You sure that's not too punny?

Also, is it possible that not everypony knows about our fearless do-gooder? Like, say, certain socially awkward purveyors of frozen desserts may not be aware of the masked pony's existence?

Yeah, it's an open secret, but that doesn't mean everyone knows. Newcomers to town, or just ponies who haven't been paying attention.

I'm thinking his hero name is something like Red Lightning or The Crimson Wonder or something like that, with a red lightning bolt as his faux Cutie Mark. I haven't quite figured out his day job yet, so I'm not sure on his real name, though, but I'm thinking he might be the shy, awkward type when not in costume.

I'm thinking Fashion Designer's assistant (to explain where the threads came from) or possibly mailpony (I imagine dragons are only for royal buisness).

#42: Mar 2nd 2011 at 9:39:15 PM

...I never really thought about how Spike-mail works, but now I'm wondering about the details like if he could send mail to anyone else.

I like the mailpony idea. Bonus points if he has a secret compartment in his mailbag where he keeps the stuff for his other job. :)

I personally enjoy the hero name Crimson Wonder! And I like the idea of him being a mail pony.

I'm having some fun imagining Derpy Hooves as the forbidden love interest that he can't get involved with for her own safety.

Yeah, maybe a tailor, with a spool of thread and a needle for his Cutie Mark. Woolie Weave?

Sorry, Ninja'd. He can be a mailpony if everyone wants him to be. Plus, I guess it goes better with the pegasus part.

Still trying to come up with a name for Art's sister. As far as I have her character figured out, she older than Art, is a unicorn pony, is married, lives in another town(maybe Filydelphia), has a whitish yellowish coat, an orange mane, and belittles Art, but in a playful and big sisterish way and means him no harm.

At this moment, I have no what her job or cutie mark is. Any ideas?

[up]Her name is Rainbow Dash, her cutie-mark is a raibow-colored lightning bolt, and she is married to Pinkie Pie.

/shitpost

I figure figuring out what relatives are like is a low priority unless they interact often. I guess it wouldn't be too unreasonable to say she's a member of the Wonderbolts or something if you wanted.

[up][up]I say don't worry about what we'd like to see so much as what you want to play.

@Gelzo: No, actually, it makes perfect sense. He's a Pegasus, so delivering the mail is just perfect. Plus, as was already pointed out, this gives him a perfect place to stash his hero duds. It falls into place so perfectly, it'd be a crime not to go with it.

With that in mind, his Cutie Mark is an envelope.

Oh wow, this really kicked off faster than I though. I'd better start coming up with ideas If I wanna be in on this.

Hmm...A baker Pony might be interesting...Or a cartographer. Not that there'd be much cause for that, I don't think, but then again, if there can be superhero ponies...oh Snap! Indiana Jones Pony! heh.
