Description
I needed some refs for the changes I made to each of the pony race, (though is started out as just Pegasus practice)So here's the infodump, the Size chart at the bottom is of averages, and are not all that scaled.
Pegasus:
Size: Smallest of the three Races usually only getting as tall as 14hands (4'6") at the shoulder, they are also very light rarely getting over 272kg unless obese.
Magic: most magic in a Pegasus is found in the chest and wings, it's uses include flight, cloud walking and weather control.
Weaknesses: due to their thinner flexable neck (used in preening) they can more easily break it. their legs are much weaker then earth or unicorn ponies do to the flight muscles taking so much room in the chest.
Strengths: besides flight pegasus also have some of the best lungs of the ponies some can run in low oxygen environments for over five minutes. Pegasus are also have a honing like sense that helps lead them back home. they can jump really high.
Bat Pegasus:
those pegasus that serve under Luna become Bat Pegasus. granting them much better night version and hearing.
Unicorns:
size: usually around 13-16 hands, though with their tail the are usually twice as long as a pony the same size.
Magic: the most magical of the races and the only one that can use spells, their magic is focus in the head and chest.
Weaknesses: their long tail is sensitive and an easy target in fights, lose or broken tails are common in ponies that fight for a living. Their can suffer from magic poisoning do to their high magic levels. spells cast on a unicorn (like a healing spell) need more magic to work do to their resistant to it. most unicorns have a lot of trouble building muscle and are usually weaker then the other races.
Strengths: Magic is the most important one, but there horn is also good at stabbing things and will regrow if broken. With their tail they can balance on their hind legs better then the other races some they can hold things in their fore hooves.
Earth:
Size: the largest of the races usually around 15-19hands, also usually have feathering on their legs.
Magic: it strengths their body, allowing them to heal much faster the the other races. The can have ways with plants and animals that make farming easier for them. their magic isn't very centered.
Weakness: they can't fly or do magic, somethings even having trouble with passive magic like those used to grab objects with their hooves.
Strengths: besides physical strength and endurance, earth ponies are also the hardiest, rarely getting sick.
Alicorn:
Size: Alicorns being physical perfect beings (in theory) the are the largest ponies within the base ponies standing 20-25hands.
Magic: they can use all the types of magic the races can, the older the alicorn the greater their power. their magic isn't centered but is so strong they can seem almost made of magic.
Weakness: well they can do all types of magic they need to do more work to master a skill. do to their size the have trouble with doors. (they easily become mary-sues)
Strengths: They can't die from old age.
Guess with one is fake Luna lol
