Mad Munchkin Blethers about Non Pony OCs

[@MadMunchkin]

What species is your OC?

[@RoadrunnerMoose]

Rikkaku is a Hippogryph in a non-traditional sense.

[@danielcurren2119]

My main OC is a hydra with elemental magic, each head represents two elements and a different type of dragon that represents the elements of that head. I love elemental characters and creatures, so a hydra is a cool way of mixing these concepts

[@Third7Plays]

Shallow Waters is a Mistform, a type of peaceful windigo that originated from some weird daring do game ive never heard of ever

Bronies worst fear is creating an oc that's already been taken. Finding a unique, never used before name is the worst part of the whole freakin thing!!!!!

[@MadMunchkin]

Hammy Haven Here's a thought; make an OC that's not limited to just MLP.

[@Kartoffelkamm]

Mad Munchkin like my griffon OC? i mean, i could write a book about him, send him on some adventures and even let the main character from the book i already wrote have a cameo (dont ask how) anyway, this cameo thing is only possible because of a certain aspect of my book, which is kinda fun to write. imagine a mix of Discord´s hom world and Distortion World from pokemon platinum. i mean, goodbye logics and physics, hello fun.

[@FoxHappy365]

I have 1 griffon wolf mix oc called a grolf 😊

[@deman182]

Hammy Haven I know that feeling it took me two solid months of thinking about a way to make my OC unique before I thought I was ready to get him commissioned to be drawn only to realize I forgot some really base things like what his cutie mark would be.

[@Kartoffelkamm]

Patchwork i had the same problem with mine. so first i made him and his family have a curse that they dont get cutie marks, which causes them to be skilled in many things, but then i went with the invisibility spell, which he can do at his age because he has a special talent for manipulating the psychological. he can see energy with a certain spell, which allows him to use the lock picking spell. but more info about him will be published in my spin-off series, if i find an animator.

[@roccoten369]

what about crystal ponies? My OC is a crystal unicorn.

[@Em.sonic7]

Rocco Ten I don't think Crystal Ponies count either, sense they r pretty much just ponies crystalized. Like Bat Ponies, Crystal Ponies are just a sub species.

[@erzathefairyhunter330]

Sonic Sega really any pony can be a crystal one if they go into a pool thingy

[@allenholloway5109]

I mean, if you made a good character, and created lore around what being a crystal pony actually means for daily life, then I think that is a good idea. But really, it still is a pony subspecies. Like bat ponies/thestrals or seaponies (which are awesome if done right).

[@robokill387]

Allen Holloway crystal ponies exist in canon.

[@allenholloway5109]

Yes, they exist in canon. But they are not fleshed out at all. The only thing we know about crystallization is that it is affected by emotion and the Crystal Heart has something to do with it. In order to make it a good character, you need to know things like that very well. The solution is to create a good head-canon about it.

[@weathermangohanssj4]

It's always off putting to see Dr. Wolf on all fours.

[@laraharvey5780]

It's hard to make your OC look original. You're constantly worried someone will call it "too mary sue" or "you stole your design from the brony artist" the truth is, because there are so many fans and artists, and lots of different art styles taken. It's difficult to find one unique to you, as your art style may be similar to another artist. However, as every artist is never EXACTLY THE SAME as another's work, it may be hard to find a medium that stands out, that makes people go, "That MUST be so and so's work, their style is VERY distinctive" Even if you stray from the four main choices, if you DO create an OC, like a wolf or hippogriff, there will always be people who say, "Oh, you copied Dr Wolf or Silver Quill" and that's harsh. The reality is, we, the brony community, need to be less critical about other's artwork, as their struggles to please you are many.

[@theenderdestruction2362]

I don't regret my decision xD

Loving the new art style for your OC, Munchkin. Right alongside the design for the Team Fortress Crossover. I especially love how well said art style looks on SilverQuill and Dr.Wolf. Secondly, I love your bagpipe theme music. Could you tell me the name of the song, perhaps? Lastly, on the topic at hand; if I had the ability. My OC would resemble that of a centaur

[@lynn7495]

My oc is a winged deer. Her fur is brown, and her hair is light purple with a dark brown streak.Her cutie mark is a music note with a wing, and her name is Sanderling Symphony.

[@SleepyPanda49]

My OC is 75% pony, 25% panda. She's basically a normal pony except 1) her colouration is a bit different, 2) she's not as intelligent (and thus can't speak), and 3) she eats a different diet.

Sleepy Panda that.was.fricken.LOVABLE

[@bananasinfrench]

That doesn't make any sense. Beyond not fitting with the lore of canon, if all that's affected in her design is coloring then you could literally take that piece out with no changes. Just making a random mix of species without being willing to stray from the norm of pony designs completely misses the point o this video. I would suggest choosing a species that would fit into the look of the show, if you're absolutely set on having a hybrid. If not, just make it a straight pony, there's no problem with that.

[@SleepyPanda49]

bananasinfrench Like I said though, she's mostly pony. Genetics aren't always distributed equally. I'm part Vietnamese, for example, but I look completely Caucasian. Most of the difference with her is mental ability, not really physical appearance.

[@PieDislikerSwag]

Funnily enough, the reason I created a zebra OC was from a poll on Equestria Daily. Out of all of the options available (core 3, alicorn, griffon, etc) zebra had the fewest votes. I enjoyed the idea of zebra OCs and wanted to see more ideas of what they'd be like aside from Zecora. Most people don't know about my OC because I don't really have an opportunity to show him off. Aside from my profile picture and channel art, I wouldn't have gotten much use out of it. I also don't quite have the artistic talent to make drawings of him myself that I'd be proud of, so going without the OC was more convenient for me. I never needed to use him until my AMWDW session, and even then, one of his volunteers drew the images of him.

[@TuesdaysArt]

If you still want to use that oc, I could make icons of him. Granted, I don't draw equines as well as canines or other things I tend to draw more of, but I'll give it a go! :^) I do have an outside life, so I won't be able to come up with a good amount of icons with various expressions until maybe the weekend, if I get the motivation, but I'll help if you want. I don't have an updated drawing of an equine I can show you, but my dA is Starstar87 if you want to look at my art style.

[@PieDislikerSwag]

That's a rather unexpected offer. I don't really have any plans to make use of him as of now, so I'm not sure it would be worth your time. Though if you feel like drawing him just for drawing's sake, I could send you an image of him to show what he looks like.

[@TuesdaysArt]

With a enchanted scarf that allows her to talk XD (with her "Cutie mark" on it) So I understand Silver Quill's solution to adding a pony hind quarters to his OC. But What I really think people shy away from non-pony OC's because they consider them a non character or...*Shudders* Pets, so hey, Spikes a "Pet" so why can't I make a phoenix OC! in conclusion, I wanted to share my frustration and sympathy for non-pony OC's.

It took me awhile to figure out what I wanted my OC to be or look like. So what I did was put three of my most favorite Mythical Creatures/Animals together. Dragon+Cat (every wild feline in the world combined)+Wolf (Dire Wolf) My niece, said that the name was to long, so I put all three names in a Name Combiner. I searched until I found the perfect name: The Dracatolf! I wanted everything about my Character to be unique! So after I figured out the name of the species of my OC (I also made my Character the only one of her race for Extra *Uniqueness* ), I had to come up with the design (& dear Celestia that took ages) Plus I was also helping my Niece with her OC. So I went for the Body of a Dire Wolf, Wings of a Dragon (not the webbed kind), Retractable Claws of a Feline, Speed + Strength of all 3 combined, Fire powers (my character doesn't breath fire like a normal dragon) and Magic. Then there was the name and color palette 😑>_

[@jakiekat3250]

My OC is a Pegasus, BUUUT shes acually a changling. Thats why she gets along with her channeling friend so much, she hardley knows the main six. What she does know about them is that she stops by raritys boutique sometimes to get her mane done and just like everypony else she knows twilight is the princess of friend ship and all that. So shes really just like everypony else aside from the fact shes a changling.

Rose Noppeee an oc actually stands for "original character". If you make a character, as long as it's your own and original, it's an oc.

I noticed that during the video you said your OC was a type or Scottish fairy, and that just made me wonder: have you ever heard of a dulahon? It's a type of Celtic fairy that can survive a head. I first heard about them from an anime, and you probably had to look into types of fairies, because, I don't know about how it is wherever you are or with whoever you hang out with, but types of fairies from different nationalities aren't common knowledge where I am. So, it seems to me that you are interested in that sort of thing, so I'm just curious. But don't think you need to answer my question, because I'm not all that important.

[@loreleisummers6224]

First of all, I know it's Irish. That's why I said it was Celtic, which is another word for Irish. Second of all, yes. I did first hear of dullahons from Durara!!

[@loreleisummers6224]

I wasn't asking why she didn't use a dullahon. It's just that in my culture types of fairies isn't common knowledge, so if her culture is similar to mine in that sense, that tells me that she did research, which in turn tells me she's interested in the topic of fairies, so I was unsure how many types of fairies she knew of, so I was just wondering if she knew what a dullahon was.

[@loreleisummers6224]

Alright, I can see why she was annoyed by that, and thank you for clarifying why you pointed all that out.

[@flickwise5916]

See, this is why I get angry when people hate against Hybrid or Non-Pony OCs. We're just expressing our unique personalities and differences, not to mention displaying much more creativity. There's nothing wrong with them. Some people just don't want to accept that change.

[@flickwise5916]

*Shrugs*

[@KadzietWolf]

Well, that was pretentious. "expressing our unique personalities and differences." And we don't have that? "displaying much more creativity." I have a unicorn OC. Am I just that uncreative and stupid?

[@flickwise5916]

No, you're not. People who hate on others who make non-pony OCs are. There's nothing wrong with a pony OC, nothing at all.

[@Kartoffelkamm]

Flick Wise well, then why do u have a pony as profile pic? i know, i got one, too, but my channel is named after him. if u can draw well, i would like u to help me with a project. if u have a Patreon account, i could even link it under every video of this project (5 seasons, 20 episodes each, and a huge movie).

[@flickwise5916]

Huh?

[@Veronica-pz4gw]

I love how you made your OC reflect your nationality. Unique and precious. I like it!

[@IcyAtlas]

plus one subscriber for great animation and plus one like for great humor

hehe lord of pest control

[@arisaraphumphung1960]

Give Mad Munchkin a break MARY SUE!!!

[@gracestray2001]

what the wolf said at around 11 minutes about wanting to create a pony oc just because they wanted to fit in is similar to what I did with my sexuality. when I was still in primary school, I didn't know much about many sexualities. I wasn't attracted to boys (the norm), yet dated boys only because I thought that it'd be weird if everyone else were getting boyfriends and not me. it wasn't until late year 8 that I realised what asexual/aromantics was, and that I was one.

[@deanthedeerpurr6730]

Welll my mlp oc is a Gryphon, so am I good? ;3

[@MsGigglesluv]

My boyfriend has called Silver a chicken.

[@AbbRunner]

+Anna Bernick I kinda think he looks like an Albatross. Don't judge me.

[@carrionkrisis]

+AbbRunner Silver makes me think of a Quail or a goose sometimes lol

[@anacleos345]

+Anna Bernick might as well be

[@Dokdiamant]

Oh man had I have to laugh, even if this vid is a little older. xD But what you and your guests said give me to thought. I think I will "Overthink" my own "WIP" OC again, even if I have no Idea at the Moment in what direction he should go for now... ^^

[@hollyTM]

I do think your points are quite true and interesting, but I'll stick with my unicorn OC. I like the magical and uniqueness that a unicorn possesses, I just like the Greek culture that unicorns surround. It's my opinion though :)

[@JSage90]

Same here. I picked the unicorn species because it fits the best with my personality. Though despite that I've been able to create other original characters of varying races; despite this my one and only OC that represents me will continue to be a unicorn.

[@joabelescano4888]

I like your point of view its good to know what you want and go for it, thats why my oc is a dragon, i always love them and when i saw spike in a rampage that was it xD my oc it has to be a dragon lml but like spkie whit out the wings y like more the idea of running and jumping than flying

[@electricphoenix2139]

I was a unicorn for a year and a half, mostly because back then I thought you could only be a pony. That's until I came across the Equestria Daily poll and saw that Zebra OCs were a thing. Since Zecora was and still is my favorite character in the show, I made my own zebra OC, Firefly.

[@silverbro13]

Holly Martin Eh... not to burst your bubble or anything but... it's Pegasi that CAME from Greek mythology. Unicorns is actually(Whether you choose to believe it or not) points to coming from Indian mythology, no not the North American Indians, although that would be quite hilarious.

[@silverbro13]

This is also the case in one of the first claims of Unicorns existence which was somewhere in Medieval Europe. I know I sound like a madman, but it's true. Another thing, is that Unicorns, contrary to popular belief, were never thought of to be Magical. That's just the way people thought of them as since they were so "Rare" back then(My guess is around the 14 to 15 hundreds). Just like how dragons were thought of as deities since they were also rare. But get this, Dragons were REAL. Just not the Western kind... I'm sorry, I went on a rant and this might have continued for a while, I apologize.

[@nikki-yq8lv]

What about tyandaga

[@gearhooves5996]

I’m guessing Kirin falls into that category with bat ponies and the old changeling design

[@gearhooves5996]

I know this is old but might as well

[@kawaiiqueee]

My OC is a Kirin-

[@internet7605]

My MLP OC is a wyvern... IN THE MINORITY!

[@otterpopgames7]

Internet my oc is also a wyvern but it’s kind of a changeling wyvern with clearwings and holes everywhere from and incidental chemical spill with acid so CREATIVITY!!!!

[@theenderdestruction2362]

Timberwolf and chewbracowbra over here

[@PenHeart3]

I have a fricken Bendy oc for my main stuff. Even MLP

[@lindsaypetersen5940]

Silver Quill- behold my dark side of the moon! Mary Sue-still looks like pigeon to me. Even from this angle. I love that exchange!

[@madse4672]

My OC is a diquodicus or how ha say it...

[@__4084]

Draconequus?

[@deannahowell7823]

Snivy with Leafeon ok. if u wanna be that species for an oc, 1 learn to spell it 2 learn to SAY it then u can create a back story and AFTER ALLLLL THAT then draw it

[@kawaiigurl2.08]

Nutmeg The noob of life *species :)

[@Tyandaga]

Non-pony Oc's Rep xD

[@lennyfais5040]

Yeah yeah homie! Represent!

[@reiphas]

11:00 - Yeah, I DO know, that lots of bronies might have similiar OCs, but God, this little pony right above white earth pony with blue mane looks almost exacly like my Iris! Or maybe it's InkRose... I dunno. But... Iris is an alicorn (please don't kill me ;-;) and has fox's tail and ears.

[@smallsnake4790]

So.... now your basically Mary Sue's mother.

[@Moon-uo9bf]

Small Snake XD YAAS

[@Ponynstuff320]

You guys forgot to mention that Ahuizotl is now a real creature, and should be considered as a race. Rare race perhaps?

[@JSage90]

True. Ahuizotl IS a real creature now and in fact he is based on the mythical Aztec creature called, of course, Ahuizotl. So his species is indeed a viable one to use.

[@Ponynstuff320]

ALso Centaurs, Chimeras, and Gargoyles (Scorpan) Though, what weird me is that Ahuizotl is named after the creature. Which sparks up an enormous mystery towards his character. And in the Daring Do And The Eternal Flower, he's either a demigod/regular mortal, so he's not an immortal creature of sorts. So something is a huge gap right there.

[@shieldgenerator7]

***** Wait, chimera? what episode was that? And I think Ahuizotl comes from a land far from Equestria, which is why he's the only one like him at the moment

[@Ponynstuff320]

Somepony to Watch Over Me? Erm...

[@shieldgenerator7]

***** Oh! Yes! Of course! THAT Chimera! haha when I hear "Chimera" I think of the medical condition, and not of the mythical beast. That's why I got so confused

[@allenholloway5109]

I have made OCs before, but only for characters in stories I make. I can never seem to find a design or OC character that fits me as a person. With more species, there is more variety, but it is hard to have enough self-reflection to create yourself honestly and completely, especially if you don't really have a developed personality yet. I hate bragging, so it is hard for me to give an OC any of the characteristics of myself that I am proud of. In addition, any flaws that I notice for myself I try to fix, anyway. The only thing left is the personality quirks that make me unique... which are almost impossible to see objectively. Of course, it is not impossible, just really, really hard, and I find myself delaying in actually creating one. It's like I have to get my cutie mark first before I can make an OC. It's frustrating. Of course, I'm taking all of this way too seriously. But I can't bring myself to do something this important psychologically this wrong. (except when I tried making OCs when i first started... They weren't abominations, but... ugh... no actual character.

[@firetype55]

1516, eh? also, non pony OC, right here. I have a draconequus OC! ^_^

[@jakevuolo6621]

+firetype55 I'm a Fox

[@sophieisakward4834]

I'm a kitsune.

[@supremegirlygamer2382]

My Alicorn OC name is Crazy Art

[@LDAR]

kinda cringy

[@thefantasylife]

Supreme GirlyGamer that name was already taken by a crayon company

[@kilzial2204]

Yes, very creative. Concering that this is a line of products and a Company itself. You should try to get something based on Looks, Personality, and all as such. Theres a few good tutorials out there to do so.

[@kilzial2204]

*Sigh* Another OC that makes no sense to have Flying and Teleporting abilities.. Also, you had to put "Raised by a wolf pack".. What else could she be raised by? A pig pen?

[@kilzial2204]

Hm, I see. Well, I'm currently in no position to judge on your Character, as I have yet to create my own, and may I say, you have rather Fluent Grammar for a Eleven year old. (Not saying in a mean way.) Most ten or eleven year olds have HORRIBLE grammar on the webs, and say some crap they shouldn't. But good on you. I'm sure I can have more time to think of how much time it must of taken. Take care, never the less.

[@redlightning6243]

This was a pretty good video! I actually agree with all of the points you and Silver Quill had. And besides, my MLP Oc isn't even a pony! My character Red Lightning is a Dracatolf, a creature that I created that is made up of three of my most favorite creatures. A Dragon, A Cat & A Dire Wolf. And she has a cutie mark.

[@23gameoverlord]

...............i ship Mary Sue with Silver Quill.

[@battlecross8540]

You wouldn't dare?

[@seasonaldragon73]

This video kinda reminded me of the creativity I have for my oc (He doesn’t belong to any franchise). I picked a really weird concept and now I think I might be the only person around to have a season themed dragon as their character to represent them.

[@childofthesea7345]

I have a selkie oc. Calypso has a pony form yes but she spends most of her time as a seal and her seal design I have spent a while working on

[@lemonkerr3698]

1:26 Looks more Griffon than Hippogriff with the movie out xD

[@waryalphaprime]

So talking on this point. I had gone through multiple designs for my OC for MLP specifically before the one you see now. Starting as a unicorn, then pegasus. When those didnt really work for me i started to attempt to justify a male Alicorn OC but once again scrapped it when it wasnt working out. Then i tried a mix of a zebra and bat pony but still wasnt right for me. Finally after not having any ideas on what worked and the pain staking process of coming up with a cutie mark idea i said screw it and went with Griffon. Now it was challenging trying to figure what to combine for him but eventually i decided on the bird from where i was born being the eastern bluebird, the missouri state bird, and a mountain lion a native animal to colorado. I chose these two because i wanted to represent both states where i grew up (although my current avatar design is before that change was made). So despite being a pain to make an OC, it has proven to work out in the long run

[@ejmwhite6789]

I couldn't help but think of exotic butters when he said exotic colors XD

[@selalewow]

My OC is a sea pony. I found that design appealed to me the most. They are playful tricksters and still currently outside of the show canon. I know that some Bronies are dreading the day they are brought in because of the horror they induced in previous generations, so I enjoy the mystery and mystique as well. I did use a generator, mainly because I have difficulty with paint programs to create a decent one myself. I could try drawing one and scanning it in, but I lack the computer skills to do that as well. She has a fun backstory, and her name means waterfall in Turkish, so I put thought into that as well.

[@kilzial2204]

Several years later, and this Highland woman is still my Favourite source for Inspiration.

[@hariman7727]

Hmmmmmmmmm. *Starts pondering options for Non-Pony OCs.* Also, Mary Sue is the most hilarious mistake turned running gag ever. I both think she is funny, and yet want her to get tossed in a back room and forgotten. Thus, she is the perfection of her namesake. Also also, I really like the "Lord InsertNameHere." joke too. And, you know, the videos and commentary on the various subjects too. ;)

[@jakepulley8155]

I love how Silver looks in your style.
