As told by Hrugar, the Diamond Dog.
Zebra
I met one of these once. She talk funny and live alone.
Not all of them talk funny… or live alone… but this one did… or do.
Anyway, I told zebra am good at travelin’ around like some kinda gypsy-type.
So, zebra look a lot like pony, so they still four-legged and stuff, but they only come in two color – black and white. Also, they got some crazy styles. Very out-landy.
Zebras has something called Tribal Style Mark which am totally different and nothing like pony cutie mark.
With this mark, zebras get +1 more to 2 separate stats when getting created, and they have a +1 bonus when doing anything that relate to wilderness survival or living off the land.
Also, instead of cute picture, zebra mark look better ‘cause it more like pretty pattern instead.
Zebra also have some kind of Situation Prediction.
With this skill, the zebra can roll 2d12 once on their turn during a situation. As long as they make a lucky doubles roll, they will gain a hint of what the others will do next. Any other result just leaves it up to the zebra’s guess work.
Zebras is weird, but here’s what they start off with: +1 Resilience, +2 Awareness, +2 Creativity, +1 Willpower
Griffons
Half lion, half giant loud bird, griffons are scary, flying, loud, and do not fall easy when I throw rocks at them.
Harsh brawlers, quick fliers, and perceptive creatures, griffons usually have that “better than you” attitude.
They have Flight of course.
Their form of flight is just like them pegasai and can land on fluffy white stuff in the sky! They still build up speed and stuff like a pegasus.
Then they have Talons, which is crazy sharp.
These talons give griffons the ability to scale any surface they can dig into. They also has a bonus of +3 Melee Damage when unarmed, which kinda scare me a little if I think about it. Good thing I don’t think about it.
As for stats: +3 Ferocity, +1 Speed, +2 Awareness
Diamond Dogs
So, this part my specialty!
*Flexes his muscles.*
Diamond dogs is bigger than puny ponies. We stand on two legs, and has two arms. We has feet and big beefy hands, as well as these tails with smashy things on the end of them.
We like big scary dogs who can talk same as ponies. We has our own language, but ponies no understand that.
We has big claws that are good for digging and fighting and climbing and stuff.
Also, we really likes diamonds. That’s where our name came from. We live and tunnel underground all the time lookin’ for more diamonds.
‘Cause of this, we can see in the dark, and have heightened directional senses.
So yeah… we has Big Claws.
This allows us to add twice our Resilience when we dig holes or climb things, rather than just base Resilience. We also get a +2 Melee Damage Bonus when we have no weapon! So you see, we strong and scary!
We also has Underground Sense!
It work more than just underground, but we has vision in the dark, bein’ able to see on really… really low light. Ponies need light spells where we don’t! It so great. Also, we can easily tell which way is out when we’re inside.
So, we get: +2 Resilience, +1 Ferocity, +1 Speed, +2 Awareness
Changelings
I thought these things went home, but apparently not all changelings is bad nasty bug ponies. Some is nice nasty bug ponies.
So I heard, instead of needing to eat food all the time, these nasty bug ponies just need to feed on strong emotions. Feelings of love, hate, and intense jealousy are most delicious to them.
Then the scary thing is that they can take different forms! Take shape of your girlfriend and suck out your love while turning you into some kind of mind-slave.
So this may take long time to describe, so let’s start with their basic skill. Flight!
They can fly like pesagai, except they don’t land on fluffy clouds like a pegasai unless they in the body of a pegasai or alicorn pony.
So, now we talk about Changeling Magic.
This am their big skill, what make changeling a changeling. Kinda like how cutie marks make the ponies… ponies.
Changelings have the ability to cast magic from the Emotions realm, and so have the Empath class available to them.
Changelings also get the ability to change their shape with their magic. They can imitate any pony they see, down to the look of the cutie mark, but they don’t change any of their stats or skills, just their appearance and voice. Changing shape for ponies is instant, but changing shape for other races takes like… fifteen minutes.
They can also change appearance and voice to look like an original pony, but their body size won’t change then, and they will have no cutie mark! Blank flank, hah-ha!
Uh, stats: +4 Willpower, +2 Creativity
