It's done. Finally. Sorry it took me so long. I get distracted pretty easily and I end up not doing things I know I want to do. Anyway here it is. You can tell me how bad/good it is if you feel like it. I also posted it in my OC thread so you can view it there as well. Name: Nova Arcane Gender: Male/Stallion Age: 22 years old Type: Bat Pony Appearance: See image Personality: Nova is actually quite the social bug. Or, in this case, social bat. He likes to get to know everypony he meets. He especially likes to get to know others that aren’t bat ponies like him. He always has been interested in the other races of ponies to the point where he would occasionally find himself invading on their privacy just so he could get to know them which doesn’t really work out to well for him admittedly. The only problem is that because he’s a bat pony, a lot of ponies are scared of him and treat him like he’s some sort of vampire that’s going to make them a vampire. He would never do that but other ponies just don’t seem to look past his bat pony wings. The one thing he really takes pride in is to help others overcome their musings and become better ponies. In other words, he likes to help other ponies confront their “true selves” and sort of “defeat” them so that they can be happier and live the rest of their lives in peace without having to worry about put up some sort of false sense of who they really are. He likes to fly around at night as he really feels free that way. He’ll even occasionally just be upside just for the heck of it, even if other ponies can clearly see him. He’s embraced his bat pony heritage to its fullest. He takes pride in being a bat pony, however, he also works to try to make other ponies not fear bat ponies because of all of the bad rumors about them that go around like wildfire. History: Nova was brought up in pure bat pony family that was pretty strict with him. His family was the type that seemed to think the only others they should associate themselves with were other bat ponies mostly because they were the main ponies that were most active at night. However, the older he became, his curiosity got the better of him and when he learned to fly, he secretly left home one day to see if bat ponies really were the only species active at night. He was surprised by what he saw. Other ponies were active at night as well. Not just bat ponies. Occasionally, he would even make a few friends that weren’t bat ponies. Ever since then, Nova has furiously worked to try to better the bat pony image and try to make all of the other ponies realize that everything they have heard about bat ponies were just stories that were twisted out of control. His cutie mark represents his love of helping other ponies overcome their true selves and become better ponies. It’s a butterfly to represent emerging from a cocoon as a butterfly when he helps others be better ponies. Unfortunately, he’s only been able to help a few ponies with that due to the fact that most ponies are scared of bat ponies. But the ones he did help thanked him and assured him that they would also try to tell others that bat ponies weren’t like they were told. Nova continues to help other ponies and to better the bat pony image to this day. Image: Spoiler: Nova Arcane P.S.: I may or may not have taken some ideas from Persona. :derpe:
Nice. The only critique I have is with the picture, but I know that Pony Creator doesn't have the right ears or wings for a Bat Pony. If you want a more show-accurate Equus Chiroptera, I'd suggest using The Fabulous Ponymaker. http://www.daytime.discoveryfamilyc...c/games/the-fabulous-ponymaker-trick-or-treat
I'd use that, but, I don't think you can use custom cutie marks with that one. Can you? I'm honestly not sure.
