Okay, so, yeah, here we go, how to make Ponies in Pathfinder 2e.
All My Little Pony Clips are owned by Hasbro and E One entertainment. This video should be considered fair use as it is significantly transformative.

Listen, my toddler has me so deep in Paw Patrol Lore that I've already theory-crafted at least three characters from that show into Pathfinder 2e. I have no room to judge! LOL!

Awakened animal, inventor, and then appropriate background (laborer, city guard, etc.)

[@legomojo]

Huh it’s 2am and I wanted to go to bed… but let’s watch this instead.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I mean, thanks for the watch, but also, get some sleep? Video will be here in the morning? Save it as a 'watch for later?'

[@legomojo]

@@PsiPrimeProductions1don’t tell ME what to do! I’ll watch it if I want!… and I did! Already. 😂

[@palkemo]

I always tell people how versatile is pathfinder to build famous tv or cinema characters..... But this is a whole new level.

[@davidedwards3206]

I looked up canonical ponies, such as the Riding Pony and War Pony, in PF2 as well as horses, such as Riding Horse and War Horse, just to see what the size of an actual Pony and Horse are in the game rules. Pony's are sized Medium while Horses are sized Large. This is likely why most Centaur are Large, with the pony heritage being Medium. This means there is an argument to be able to play a medium pony Awakened Animal too. It just means those apples (and other fruit and veg) are really BIG for apples, which tracks for what the G5 earth pony's plants sometimes produce. However, Howl of the Wild also has a section under Awakened Animal that says "Many animals have giant-sized versions of themselves in the game, and you can take advantage of that fact to make an animal of any size that you prefer", so your Small size choice for the ponies is viable too. And this section on different sized animals also means it's possible for different sized plant-life too, so large apples are possible.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Yeah, I saw that, and thought about explaining it, but it would have made the video drag on. But thanks for doing due diligence.

[@3_14pie]

You're not a necromancer, but summoned a dead fandom with this one

[@Ditidos]

For the unicorns, you can also reskin the kashrishi too if you are going for small size. I consider the ponies to be long medium sized creatures which is why they are around the same height as a halfling but they are medium due to being longer. But if you are going small, the kashrishi have innate telekinetic abilities and a horn, just like unicorns (albeit empathic sense is slightly off but seems justifiable). Plus, you can get a glowing horn or the coolest unarmed attack in the game that way with a heritage and Open Mind gives you an occult cantrip which can be Telekinetic Hand, and your horn glows when you use it.

[@chiragasnani3437]

I'm almost certain out there, someone is planning to run a Strength of Thousands campaign with a at least a couple of Pony PCs, and I hope they see your video. Nothing wrong with doing characters you like, and good shout on the Witchwarper, thinking ahead of starfinder classes we might get is a good idea.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

That would be cool!

[@mobi2289]

In our rush to see if we could make it, we didn't stop to think if we should at all. Also first! Muahahahaha!

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Ooookay?

[@vekthegoblin2592]

The nice thing is that all those other creatures-hippogriffs, griffons, hippocampi, bison, etc.-already exist in Pathfinder, and they're all animals. It's actually harder to play a pegasus or unicorn RAW than any non-pony species (except dragon, but that's what RFC is for 😂).

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I actually figured out a build for the hippogriffs into sea ponies thing.

[@DavidSilverGames]

Always good to see more ponies about. (Ponyfinder writer)

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Hey, I couldn’t find a good website for silver games llc, if you guys have one, let me know and I’ll link it in the description.

[@DavidSilverGames]

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 books.ponyfinder.net/ is the easiest link for all the books ever!

[@cinderheart2720]

Pegasi do have one other form of magic in g4 that we've seen. The standing and working with clouds. Rainbow Dash kicked lightning bolts out of clouds too.

[@gunjfur8633]

Also, they control the weather/seasons (kinda)

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Yeah, true, but I COULD NOT figure out how to replicate that in Pathfinder, so I just kinda left it out. It’s very situational too. I don’t think we ever see Dash grab a cloud and kick it as, like, an attack or something. If you wanted to represent it, you could just flavor it as an application of ‘weather lore’ or something.

[@ianbabineau5340]

My Little Pony is not my thing, but I get it. I watch some stuff that isn’t any more “adult” or “manly”. When I was a kid I would occasionally play with cousins or neighbours with MLP. I never cared enough to ask for them (plus not sure my mom and step-dad would even allow a boy to have them). I also watched a three-part episode (wishing coins story arc) in my mid-teens. It was decent.

[@natanoj16]

... how would you make Boo of Minsc and Boo fame? Hmmm or Maybe we should wait for Starfinder to make the Miniature Giant 'Space' Hamster? ;)

[@chiragasnani3437]

I misread that as Boo from Monsters Inc, and now I want to see Monsters Inc character builds. I'm sure Howl of the Wild has got options for some of those, at least Randall and Scully!

[@shadark]

Never be ashamed of what brings you joy and gives you an escape from the stress of the real world.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Thank you!

[@otaku-sempai2197]

Minor Correction: It's been known since January 31, 2024 that Make Your Mark ended with Chapter 6, though the 2-D series Tell Your Tale (on KZbin) is ongoing at this time.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I mean, the two are the same show, with just different animation styles. Same characters, same VAs, same continuity.

[@otaku-sempai2197]

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 They are still, technically, separate shows with different formats that have run concurrently with each other (somewhat like Friendship is Magic and Equestria Girls). I did say that it was a 'minor' correction.

[@natanoj16]

I am thinking about making a miniature awakened animal elephant. Any suggestions for silly ideas for class and the like? ❤

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I . . . hm. I mean . . . Dumbo is the obvious choice . . . Also . . . hmmm, I think that's reminded me of something. FOUND IT: The Wuzzles had a kangaroo elephant? Maybe there's something there? kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2fZlGqsitGmgtU

[@chiragasnani3437]

Going Dumbo with the Winged Warrior dedication sounds like so much fun, just give him a feather and send him off!

[@MikeLemmons]

PonyFinder doesn't actually seem to be very pony-esque, except vaguely in how it looks.

[@DEMONOFLOVEANDDEATH]

Well done 🎉, in g4 earth ponies are also mentioned to have "earth magic" such as how the Pie family grows rocks or Rockhoof dug his lava trench. Pegesi also have weather manipulation. Not sure how you'd fit either of those in though

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I mean, a lot of that stuff doesn’t have much mechanical effect. You could just give the pies ‘Rock Farming Lore’ and that’d probably cover it. And yeah, I don’t know how I’d do Pegasus weather control. Maybe they have ‘weather ritual lore’ and are just good at doing weather control rituals, flavored as doing it physically?

[@DEMONOFLOVEANDDEATH]

Regardless, i think you did a good job.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

@@DEMONOFLOVEANDDEATH Thank you!

[@TheCatkingproduction]

I like daydreaming about having campaigns like this But I know I'd never actually get anybody in my friend groups interested in such things So I just collect stuff like the renegade mlp rpg in my room for display

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

I bet you could find a group online that would be willing to play!

[@otaku-sempai2197]

Are you familiar with Cazra's Fallout Equestria PnP? He also produced a conversion for River Horse's Tails of Equestria RPG -- Tails of Fallout: Equestria. A PDF can be downloaded at Deviant Art.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Didn’t know that!

[@afrosamurai3847]

Not my jam at all, tried sitting down and giving it a chance when a guy at college asked me to and only saw a kids show but if it's not hurting anyone then power to you bro. Hope you keep up the great content.

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Well thanks for giving it the good old . . . college try? Anyway, thanks for not being a hater.

[@CristianzenV]

What a lot of disclaimers for a video on a show about friendship hahahha

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Lol, warning, after watching MLP, you might feel kinship with others and actually understand, if not agree with, their point of view.

[@3_14pie]

waitttt there's a new mlp show??????

[@The_Cotaku]

just careful because MLP belongs to hasbro so don't let them send them pinkertons

[@PsiPrimeProductions1]

Lol. Actually, the video was autoclaimed by Hasbro for using a long clip associated with a copywritten song (though I cut out the audio.) I disputed it, and they released the claim like, within six hours or something, so . . . I mean, fair play on them. I give credit where credit is due.

[@The_Cotaku]

@@PsiPrimeProductions1 just glad they relented 👍 keep the content flowing, your work is amazing

[@danmonster2002]

Bronies?

How dare you... Steal my character concept!

Sorry?!
