Hi nice to see everypony.
Can you guys reply on how to clear up a power?

Im a earth pony and my talent is being able to move, make, and transform matter by touching it. Basicly its alchemy. It wouldent be like dirt-diamond. It would be reasonable deturing to what the material is. Basicly like full metal alchimest logic. It also follows equivalant exchange and the conservation of mass.

I would apreciate the help.

(nice picture) No. Well not for my logic.
Pegasis ponys can fly.
Unicorns can use majic.
Earth dont do anything!
I decided to give them something that they can use. Its more of a personal prefrence though. Its just that the others have amazing powers. I just wanted to spice it up a bit! And i like alchemy. So why make a character you dont like? (your pic is gonna give me night-mares...get it? XD)

(edit) Sorry i give earth ponys a bad rap their. They are strong and durable.

Here's a few points that I would like to raise about earth ponies.

1.They have natural high constitution.
Unlike Uncorns and Pegasi's, Earth ponies can naturally take more of a hit than the two, and have a great resilience and are able to recover more quickly when it comes to a fall (E.G: Applejacks Seesaw Diving)

2.Earth ponies are stronger than the other two races, naturally, for lifting or pulling heavy things.
Applejack may be a prime example, However during winter wrap up, it was only earth pony males who were towing the snow shoveling devices. As Twilight Sparkle has proven, she was unable to accomplish the feat, and wound up having to use magic instead, but I digress, This may be a small fact to include.

3.They're hard workers
Unicorns use magic to change their enivoronments. The Earth ponies use the resources that they have to change the environt. Look at Winter Wrap up.

4.Earth ponies are open to any culture and readily welcome the new, and also the old.
They are, as expressed throughout the seasons of the show multicultural, and they are greatful with unearth pony like help, such as weather mares.

and... that's all I got. I apologize for the last one not being explained very well.

My side of the story here, is don't give your earth pony anything like alchemy. It kind of makes earth ponies in general look bad by adding that "Special talent." If you want to retain that power, use a Unicorn as a race, He could be an expert of decompising material and putting it back together with his magic.
For that, I bid adieu.

Thanka for the responses. But I understand that earth ponys are tougher. But his talent is alchemy. I mean their are stranger awsome talents. But me personaly and my pony both love alchemy.

And none of this awnsers my question. :lol:*

cloud345,

I wouldn't use your OC.
I agree with Xennyk. Earth ponies dont need powers like that.
If I were you, I wouldnt use this OC unless the GM allows it.

I see we have a Full Metal Alchemist fan here.
That or I'm making a false assumption, in which I slap myself for.
Zecora ranges in a more pharmacological form of alchemy.
It's not entirely un-canon, so it's understandable.

I think he is taking about the Edward Elric kind of alchemist, not the pots 'n' potions kind.

Yeah, I know.
Just making sure he's not feeling like he stretched it to far from canon.
Pots and potion kind of alchemy was featured in the show (FMA) though, so they all fit together in their own special way.

I guess you could say earth ponies aren't ENTIRELY un-magical, since they never really say.
It's all in theory though, and there is a lot left to the imagination.
I think anyone is safe to go a little over-board with their ideas, so the power isn't a ridiculous idea.

Okay, so I think you get the idea on the whole earth-pony thing, so I'll skip that.

I'm not really understanding the question though what do you mean by "clear up"?

That's more of on the call of however is in charge of the current RP, I would personally focus less on having an amazing power and more on having a unique personality.

I like my ponys personality. Hes alot like me actualy. Just look for it on the posts. I spent some time thinking about his bio and all of that. Its not really long though but people agree that they like my pony.I agree with your prefrence though. But that dosent mean i have to have a talent that i dont like right? And its not just my character i am fasanated by it. I would apreciate it if i could use this minor power though.

Thanks for replying!
(and i love it here!)


Edit: That dosent mean stop replying!

To the whole zebra-alchemist thing. As said here over and over.

Earth ponies: Strength, endurance, using hooves. Greatly adapt to.new environments.

Corns: Arcane magic that changes, summons, teleports etc. Because of their magic, they are great crafters.

Pegasi: flying, controlling weather with their cloud control and wings.

Zebras : Potions, magical amulets, magic bound to things using shamanistic and voodoo rituals.


There you have it.

OOC would be Out Of Character. OC is Original Character.

If they ask again, then we can refer them to this thread, or they make a new one.

Plus, this thread is old and it wasnt touched for weeks.

Lets let it die guys.
