    Correct, I have a link to an update thread of mine in my sig if you want to check it out. And from what I heard the possible voice actor for Octavia has a very good voice for the part.

    Personally I quite like Caesar and Neon Lights, although Caesar has been duplicated as a background pony in quite a few crowd scenes. Neon Lights is basically the male version of Vinyl Scratch, and appears as a background DJ-type pony on S2 E9. I just love both of their designs, Caesar being a high-society pony with a top hat and monicle and Neon Lights for his unique mohawk and purple glasses.

    Would Mrs Cake count as a background character? I've been rewatching the episodes again (as you do =P) and she's really sticking on me. I like her character and design

    I think characters that actually interract with the main characters can't really be considered background characters (except maybe Derpy). They're more like supporting cast or something.

    Lyra Heartstrings is my favorite.

    I also like Derpy Hooves, Bonbon, Blossomforth, Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, and Carrot Top.

    Lyra Heartstrings, also Bon-Bon, Cherrilee (if she is considered a background pony) and Berry Punch.

    Are not Cherrilee too important to be considered a background pony? I mean, she has an episode dedicated to her.

    How do we define that anyway, non speaking role?

    If that is true, and from what I hear of Octavia gaining a speaking role sometime in the next season, then does that mean she will no longer be a background (Even though she's only appeared once I believe) or even Derpy, despite the whole debacle over her?
