Pony (3.5e Race)

Pony
Summary::Yes, these are THOSE Ponies...

Personality
Ponies originate from a land called Equestria, leading pleasant lives and doing the work that makes them the happiest. Most are friendly and polite, though individual personalities are as varied as snowflakes. They are easily excitable and perhaps overly dramatic.

Physical Description
Ponies are smaller versions of horses. Their coats are widely varied in color, including colors that are normally not found in nature. They have manes which can be styled to resemble humanoid hair. There are two subspecies of pony: horned ponies and winged ponies. Winged ponies possess small wings just behind their shoulders, which somehow allow them to fly. Horned ponies possess a small, stubby single horn in the center of their forehead, and they are naturally adept at some form of magic. All Ponies possess a Cutie Mark, which magically appears on the pony's flank when the pony discovers their talent. The exact form of a cutie mark varies from pony to pony, but usually reflects an individual pony's natural gifts.

Relations
Ponies get along well with most non-evil races. They revere alicorns but do not worship them, instead regarding them as nobility.

Alignment
Most ponies tend to be good-aligned, and pony civilizations tend to be well-ordered. However, all alignments can be found within the pony population.

Lands
Ponies prefer temperate lands with forest and suitable farmlands. They coexist well with other animals, but not vermin or aggressive magical beasts. Ponies are extremely civilized, building towns and settlements wherever they choose to settle down. Winged ponies also will build cities in large clouds made permanent and semi-solid via magic.

Religion
Ponies do not worship deities as such, but they do respect nature and the natural elements.

Language
Ponies speak Common, though their speech tends to be more pony-centric, saying things like "everypony" or somepony" instead of "everyone" or "someone."

Names
Most Ponies have compound names, such as Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, or Lauren Faust.

Normal Pony
Most Ponies fall into this category, lacking either wings or a horn.

Unicorn Pony
Unicorn Ponies have all the characteristics of a regular pony, as well as a single horn growing from the center of their forehead just above the eyes, of the same color as their fur. All unicorns are magically gifted to varying degrees, though not all unicorns devote themselves to the study of magical arts.

Winged Pony
Winged ponies have all the characteristics of a regular pony, as well as a pair of wings that match their fur color, which allow them to fly. As stated above, winged ponies often dwell in cloud cities far above the surface of Equestria. Most are proud of their flight ability, and many compete with each other to see which among them is the fastest, most maneuverable flier.
