This is my character Windy Rose, from my story Secrets of Harmony. First and beforehand, she can't use magic when she gets the horn, and isn't much stronger than an average male pegasus (although that horn sure packs quite a kick). She isn't the "faster than Rainbow Dash and derpier than Derpy" kind of character, and all her "prowess" was gained through good ol' training and effort.

Seeing that my story isn't going to continue anytime soon (1.5 years or more, because my Pony Emblem hack is keeping me busy), I decided to include descriptions of each phase of her life. I might do her friend's description, Silver Flash, if she has a good reception.

Aside of the obvious need to open your mind towards "ponies with both wings and horns", enjoy. The sources redirects to the Equestria Daily post with my story, in case you're curious about it.

...and yes, it was me the one who added the "donut_steel" tag...lol

If her wing can be restored by Luna then why couldn't she get rid of the horn?

"Unbreakable horn". It can also be implied that it would be impervious to ways to take it off.

If I was an evil guy making enhanced soldiers, I would look for a way to avoid having my enemy taking away those improvements...lol

How about a different look at the "unbreakable" part, don't remove it but change it's form and make it part of the restored wings.

Or at lest less noticeable, like it would be a scar that's left from an injury.

The thing is... she does gets involved quite a bit with the mane cast. Besides, it's fairly nicely accepted that healing is part of a unicorn's power.

Taking away body parts, however, is mainly seen as an ability in antagonists. I doubt any of the goddesses would want to do such a thing.

I'm pretty sure those mad scientists really worked hard on that research (we are talking about years here), and made sure the horn became a deadly weapon that couldn't be rid of easily, especially considering their main objective was to create alicorns.

That's just how evil work, and it works as a reminder for Windy of what she did with that power. She definitely would like to use that same power to fix things.

Blech. I can't pin it down, but reading this was like a cheese grater against my MarySueSense.
I guess it would be the combination of SO much personal info on the OC, plus the oh-so-cliche tragedy, ended with sugary happiness.
And unbreakable? Impervious to ways to take it off? No such thing. By Discord, diamond can be worn away, light can blocked, and air solidified in RL.
I'm just glad you didn't give her magic.

If things are so easy to take away, it would also be easy to put them back. What could've stopped Nex from adding the horn again then? I actually gave a more "real life" feeling by making it permanent and kept the "magical land" thing by making major secondary effects reverting a Goddess-tier only thing.

...and real life? Since when Equestria is the "real life"?

NightJack's feedback was actually well-thought, and I respect his/her opinion. NonAnon, how about you return to /b/ and pretend to live in a perfect world where differences don't exist and you don't need to raise your tolerance standards?

As long I follow the general standards set by community, I don't need to care about your lack of vision. I don't consider Windy perfect (she's not even remotely close to what Nyx is for fanon), but I'm quite satisfied with her, and that's all that matters to me.

/b/? Poor little kid. I've never wasted my time on 4chan. Great how I pointed out characteristic that define Mary Sues, and your response is to call me dumb.
The RL point was to show that if those things can be done in RL, then in Equestria those limitations are considered child's play. Unbreakable becomes even less possible.

Raise my tolerance standards. Ha. The one who threw the first stone claims to be the more tolerant.

And what general standards? Ponibooru's? On OCs? In that case, the standard has always been in favor of my statements.

I wasn't outright condemning this OC. I was just pointed out it was rather... extravagent. If it were toned down a bit, made less integral to the fate of Canterlot, then it'd be more approachable.

You only appreaciated NJ's feedback because there was no outright criticism. Once it comes around, you attempt slander and condescension.

Bah, your immaturity has gotten me too riled up. I offer honest and hopefully helpful criticism, and get bit in the ass.

Two sentences, Mr OCmaker:

OC is fairly lacking in meaning, in depth, in any sort of interest and completely throws out the show's tone whilst still referencing - something that I despise more than I probably should.

Second sentence is that Nyx is shitty and if you are looking up to the blandness that is her then there is little hope for you; know that a character must be more than satisfactory or believable, but interesting and compelling.

...or maybe you're just trolling. Can't be sure where Nyx is concerned.

@NonAnon

There are better ways to give criticism. Your tone was definitely something more than just assertive, it sounded more like if you were just bashing.

@Anon #504144

Mind to explain why Past Sin is one of the most liked fanfictions among the fandom? Or perhaps

Flame war achieved. Well, I was either expecting a fairly warm welcome for Windy, or a total shitstorm happening. Whatever the outcome was, I'm satisfied by it.

And I would like to see you detailing the life of a character that would appear in a 20+ chapters story in just a single image.

In the end, I can safely say that about 80% of the stuff said by you was completely biased and was only meant for the worst. Why? None of you have even noticed she's a blank flank here. Epic.

I wonder what would've happened if I didn't include anything below her horned pegasus look. We'll never know, but this the REAL reason why we can't have nice things. And here I thought the "Sonictardism" was still far away from the community.

...Heh, seeing all of this negativeness is, oddly, quite thrilling. Let's see what I come up to honor "the best you can offer". I would like to have some more fun watching people hiding behind Anon's might.

This is my last comment here. I already wasted enough time with you. If you'll excuse me, I have better things to take care of than to read your mockery.

Last comment? Then last word win! Don't bother responding to any of this, it's for you to think about.

Tone via neutral text. Yes. That makes sense.

It appears you left out some of your response.

Flame War was your instigation. I made a comment, you mocked, I called you out on it. I'm _really am_ happy the drama made you feel like you achieved something, it must be a rare occurrence for you.

If the character appears in 20+ chapters, then WHY was that history put out here?

How do you get 80% out of 2 points? It'd be 0-50-100. Learn 2 Math.

What is "Sonictardism"? Is that another of your 4chan terms? Leave that crap at your homepage.

I don't care if most of your comment wasn't directed at me. It's the duty of all self-respecting adults to stand against uppity, abusive children.
