Just my ponysona, anon. Nothing special at all. |

Hmm. The unusually large wings might be a strike against you (lol look how unique and special my oc is donut steal), but you actually made them a weakness as well as a strength. Well done. |

I'm not sure how that's a strike against her. Despite the limited time, Faust did make sure to show that ponies have all kinds of differant shapes and sizes and if they did have more time, all the ponies wouldn't have been so similar in appearance, if I recall correctly.
It's not just the cutie mark that makes a pony unique, after all, encourage creativity and originallity! |

^ Well... I recall in some production notes that Lauren wanted more variety to pony shapes, but the animators were working double time as it was, so the idea was dropped. So I just mentally fill in that there ARE plenty of body types among ponies. As such, Stormy isn't unique for being a twig with two kites sewn to her. |

Interesting. Thinking raptor/albatross on this one? |

^ I wasn't thinking of any specific bird, but that some birds can lock their wings in place and glide on air currents when hunting, to conserve energy.
She's got pretty poor vertical and horizontal speed, relative to, say, Rainbow Dash. (Who, let's face it, is a fighter jet.) Like raptors, she'd probably have a good diving speed (those wings still have mass, after all), but the dive has to be pretty steep... Essentially, she's a marathon runner. She sacrifices speed for endurance. Her job? Courier/mailpony. Which essentially boils down to getting from point A to point B and back without stopping. ...She does put that dive to good use, though. She likes to put the 'flying' in 'flying tackle glomp'. Specifically on Aegis Steadfast, Digara's ponysona. |

I would like to go on the record here by saying that being struck at high speeds still hurts, despite what my cutie mark would tell you. |
