Description I've made another pony OC.  After seeing 's Ullr and 's Valkyria; I asked both of them if I could make an OC in Hoofalla.

This is just a quick reference sheet for me to jot down all the ideas I have for him.

Name: Loki
Nickname: Lone Wolf

Background:  As a young colt, he always wondered why his parents named him Loki.  There are other ponies in the past who shared the same name as him, but they were untrustworthy and some had a very bad reputation causing many ponies to mistrust him on name alone.  Because of this, he spent most of his time flying.  He became a daredevil, being able to many acrobatics that many thought were impossible.  All the tricks and maneuvers he practiced as a colt paid off.  He earned the nickname of Lone Wolf because of his isolation from most ponies.  He is blind in one eye due to one of the many battles he fought.  Instead of thinking of it as a curse, he focuses on using his other senses more; preferring darkness over light.  This is another reason why he is able to preform all of his maneuvers.

He has few friends, but he is extremely loyal to the ones who stand by him.  Personality wise, he is more on the serious side, but he can be mischievous on a whim.  He's not one to conform to the laws of his land because of the many years of being treated as an outcast.


His armor design is still in the works.  His helmet has a goggle piece on one side and the other side has his cutiemark design over the blind eye.  His shoes have metal claws attached for both practical and fighting purposes.  When not in battle, he uses the claws to scale the rocky mountains when sneaking around or hanging upside down.  His helmet design might be similar to his nickname and might look wolfish.  The helmet also has horns because he likes to stand out and it's a good thing to have when you ram into others in battle.

The cutiemark design is based off of yin yang and a jester mask.  Since he's not truly good or bad, I thought it would be a nice balance to have.  One eye is closed as to be laughing, but it also goes well with his blind eye.  Ponies always think he's up to something.  The wings below the mask represent his daredevil flying ability.

I'm probably missing a bunch of information I have for him, but I'll add them later when I make a better reference sheet.

Loki's design and back story belong to me.
MLP belongs to Hasbro
His ears and wing colors are made to be similar to 's design of Ullr and Valkyria.
Hoofalla is a place that thought of for her OC.

Really like the backstory and how it fits so well with his visual representation. The cutie mark is brilliant!

Thanks!  I thought it would be interesting to try a different take on Loki.  I tried to keep a bit of his mischievous bit of his personality, but not focused on him being evil.  I wanted to create a reason why he's an outsider.

I think his cutie mark was one of the easier designs I've made.  After creating his personality, I wanted it to be simple yet expresses his core identity.

Well you certainly have a talent for capturing the essence of a character in a single symbol.

Yeeeees he's so awesome! I love how he looks SO much like him and his cutie mark is brilliant.
Welcome to Hoofalla!!
I wonder what it would.be like if him and Ullr met. :3

Hm...  If he and Ullr met...  I think for Loki, it depends on the situation.  He might be aloof because of the stigma or he'll act cocky to read the other's emotion.  Ah, I forgot to put some info above.  For those ponies who weren't ignoring him; most were bullies who were bigger than he was.  He adapted by becoming a better flyer and hider. He's explored Hoofalla a lot.

I'd like to think they might be feuding because
of personality at first, but maybe they become friends,
maybe the kind that like to compete or something?
I don't know. XD 
But I'd like to think Ullr explores a lot of Hoofalla 
as well, especially for great hunting places~

SummerisleDog In reply to CrescentMoon96 [2014-09-10 03:42:34 +0000 UTC]

Loki's an expert at finding escape routes and places to hide.  He doesn't pay attention too much of hunting grounds.  Lol. Also, I've been trying really hard to make a pony with claw shoes.  I actually made it functional for other things besides fighting.  It might not make any sense... But he's Loki.  Not everythig has to make sense.

I think they'd have to take some time to get to know each other.  Loki has trust issues.  Lol

They could have a friendly rivalry as well.  He currently has one with Valkryia.

Well one thing about Ullr is he's like an infiltrator,
so I can imagine him knowing of a few of those places
himself, especially when something goes wrong mission wise. XD

But I could see that. XD Especially with Ullr's personality, he can
be a bit brash and come across very...hoity toity I guess? XD

SummerisleDog In reply to CrescentMoon96 [2014-09-10 05:24:31 +0000 UTC]

They'll have an ultimate game of hide and seek.  Lol

It'll take them awhile before they'll be friends.  I imagine more one-sided conversations from Loki; if he's in the mood.

Oh gosh that would be so funny. XD

And that would make sense.

I bet if Valkyria is the one seeking... She'll have her hooves full trying to find the two of them.

Such a disadvantage she'd have.

Nah.  She hangs out with Loki on occasion.  She'll be fine....  I hope.  lol  Well she'd find them a lot faster than most.

Like a mini Ragnarok I'd assume.

I guess it's perfect that one of them is named Loki.  lol  Boy would he be mad.  lol

XD I can already see when they become friends they'd
get into a large mess of trouble.

You see
I like that. I like him a LOT. I'd like to think that he crossed swords with Valkyria at one point and they tied and she respects him and maybe he her.

SummerisleDog In reply to Scarlet-Songstress [2014-09-09 15:01:16 +0000 UTC]

I can imagine they must've battled before.  He respects her for her strength and her fiery spirit.  He can relate to that.  I wonder if they have a friendly rivalry going on since they tied.  I should put that Loki's a hide and seek master.  Lol

Scarlet-Songstress In reply to SummerisleDog [2014-09-09 23:44:03 +0000 UTC]

Oh i totally agree on the friendly rivalry shiz and since Valkyria is the mothering type she probably worries he's going to do something stupid :3 She probably trusts him. Even if its foolish.

SummerisleDog In reply to Scarlet-Songstress [2014-09-10 03:44:56 +0000 UTC]

I can imagine Loki trying to sneak away from eating something at the table, but Valkryia spots him and forces him to finish it.  He'll have to get better at disappearing if he wants to hide from Vallyria.

I bet Loki comes up with a few foolish ideas, thinking it's the best thing ever.

Scarlet-Songstress In reply to SummerisleDog [2014-09-10 04:49:09 +0000 UTC]

Valkyria is "supper" sharp when it comes to that sort of thing. She probably has saved his ass from a few of the worse ones.

SummerisleDog In reply to Scarlet-Songstress [2014-09-10 05:19:19 +0000 UTC]

Lol yeah.  He'd thank her, but it won't stop him from coming up with another plan later.
