Character Name: Fennel Famicorn
Fandom: None, OC
Character Link or Summary: (Please link us to a wiki or source regarding this character, or provide us some brief detail about their OU existence. This is to help us understand the character and how you have translated them into the AU.)
Pony Type: Unicorn
Cutie Mark: A D20 dice with a flame on it
Element: Fennel’s Element is sportsmanship
AU History: Fennel was born in a very rural part of Equestia called Coltsburg. There Fennel was raised on a small peach farm, one of the few farms owned and operated by Unicorns. She helped her family grow and harvest the peaches, and she thought that she was going to work there her whole life just like her parents and their parents. However, deep down she felt unfulfilled. No matter how hard she tried she couldn’t get into the spirit of Peach farming.
One day, she was manning the peach cart in town when she spotted a magazine in a nearby window. It was called, “Pony Gamer Monthly”, and on the cover was a stallion in full armor fighting a dragon. She had never seen anything like it. She quickly left her cart and went inside to read it. The Magazine was talking about the popular Dungeons and Dragons game, which was getting an new addition. Fennel was never told any fantasy stories as a kid, and was instantly hooked. The Magazine was a special issue, that came with dice and a players guide. She spent all her money on it, ran home, and started to read the players guide. When she picked up her D20 and rolled it, she knew what she wanted to do. She wanted to become a great gamer, and open up her own shop one day. Right then her cutie mark appeared.
Her parents were not approving of this new discovery at all. They wanted her to run the peach farm, and they were not going to let this stop their plans. They forbad Fennel from playing any games in the house, and gave her a curfew. She didn’t let that stop her as she snuck books into her room, and went out and played as well. She got very good at this game, and many others, including video games. She would go off telling her parents she was going to a pear eating contest a few villages down, when she would actually go to video game and D&D tournament, where she would always win. Her parents soon discovered this, and locked her in the house intending to never let her leave. However, after a month of being locked up, Fennel escaped with all of her possessions, and never looked back.
It has been 3 years since then, and Fennel has recently arrived to Bridlewood. She plans to open her gaming shop here and bring the joy of gaming to more ponies.
Personality: Fennel is a fairly outgoing and happy Pony. She loves to chat, mainly about different D&D and video games. She can go on for hours about the different classes, jobs, abilities, and monsters. She can get a little too excited about it though, but she tries to keep her excitement in check. Because of this she comes off as a little too intense to some ponies.
Fennel is a great gamer, and loves to teach people about games. That is one of the reasons she is opening up her new store, “The Prancing Pony Hobby Shop”. She is very knowledgeable about all things game related, be it table top games, card games, and video games. She plans to hold classes to teach ponies just starting out. She may get a little too detailed about certain things, but she is a good teacher, and the few ponies she has taught in other towns have learned a lot, and have even been able to teach other ponies.
Due to her past, Fennel does get very emotional to ponies that criticize games and what she does. She will argue ruthlessly to ponies that say gaming is stupid and only for Fillies. She also holds grudges on ponies that badmouth games for a while. This is all due to how her parents acted with her. If the pony apologizes for insulting games, she will forgive them, but she will still be a little wary of the pony.
When she gets into the competitive gaming scene, her personality changes slightly. She talks smack to her challengers, but it is in all good fun. Most of the competitive gaming scene is like that, but hardly anyone takes what they say seriously. It’s like how ponies in sports insult the others, but are friends after words. However, if someone takes it seriously, and really starts to insult Fennel or other gamer ponies, or just being a bad sport, she will verbally attack them back. She looks down on ponies that are sore winners or losers, ponies that rub their wins in the losers faces, or complain that Fennel or someone else cheated when they lose. She scolds them, tells them that this is all in good fun, and avoids the pony if they keep it up.
Abilities: Fennel is a master at table top games and video games. Her unicorn power lets her create character sheets and stats for monsters instantly, as well as make strategy guides and guide books appear. She can also play video games at an all star level with her powers.
