NAME: Finders/keppers
AGE: 21
GENDER: Male
BREED/SPECIES: Unicorn
GENERATION: G1

DESCRIPTION: Finders is a small,squatty pony with stubie legs. He stands about a hand shorter than most ponies and he is a little on the heavy side. His body is a dark brown color like an old chest and his main and tail are a dingy gold. The symbol on his hip is an open treasure chest full of gold coins with a few scattered around the bottom.

PERSONALITY: Finders is a laid back/kind of shy pony. His shyness comes from the fact that not only was he small and chubbie,but is parents were both farmers(an ocupation that didn't put his family to high on the class scale) so he was picked on and teased when he was younger. Now that he is older he is very distrustful of any new ponies he meets and does'nt easily make friends, but if he does become your friend he is fercily loyal and will do anything for you.


POWERS: Finders doesnt have the ability to "wink" himself but he can "wink" objects into a pocket demention. He can only do this to one object at a time. If he already has winked an object and wants to wink something else the first object will appear at his feet.
Any object that is winked into the pocket demention finders will feel like he is carrying that object on his back. So if it is something big and heavy it will affect the way he moves and his stamina. For this reason he cant do this to very big or heavy items. He has to be in full contact with the item he is winking.

Duration/Limitations: The longer he "holds" something in the pocket demention the more fatigued he becomes,and the longer he must rest before attempting to "wink"anything else. A small item like a ring or a key can be carried for a few days with little recovery time needed. A larger item requires him to rest longer before he can wink anything else. The rest time also depends on how much energy he expended caring the item. here is a brief list:

16 onces or less-he can carry for up to one week. When he brings the item back he needs to rest for 10 minutes before winking something else.


16 onces up to five pounds- he can carry for up to three days and requires 2 hours before winking a new item.

five pounds and over- he can carry for up to twenty four hours and he requires a full days rest before winking anything else.

He was told by his mother before she died that he can teleport living things into the pocket demention,however he has not learned how to do this yet.When he does he was told it would affect him the same way as a non living object. Any living thing teleported into the pocket demention(i.e anothrt pony,another animal,or a plant) goes into a "suspended animation" for as long as they are in the PD. When they come out it is as if no time has passed for them.





Family:Father- Night Hawk(earth pony) Mother-Morning Dove(unicorn)
Both parents were lower class farmers and are deceased(Great Death)

a little aditional info on finders powers. The longer he "holds" something in the pocket demention the more fatigued he becomes. A small iten like a ring or a key can be carried for a few days with little ill effect. A larger item requires him to rest before he can wink anything else. The time tepends on how much energy he expended csrring the item. here is a brief list:

16 onces or less-he can carry for up to three days. when he brings the item back he needs to rest for 10 minutes before winking something else.


16 onces up to five pounds- he can carry for up to 24 hours and requires 2 hours before winking a new item.

five pounds and over- he can carry for only one hour and he requires a full days rest before winking anything else.

I like him, very original.
I like the idea of the "pocket dimension" as well.

About his powers...
Is he able to wink living things to this "pocket dimension"?

About his parents...
Since he is 19... he would've been a year old when his parents died in the Great Death (aka GD) The GD left no one over the age of ten alive and all children born during this time were dark colored (FYI).

You may want to consider adding a caretaker into his history he probably would have needed one for the first 2 years or so. This is up to you though.

That's all I really have to say about this fella... for now wink.gif

Yes he can teleport living things into the pocket demention but it would affect him the same way as a non living object. Any living thing teleported while in the pocket demention goes into suspended animation for as long as they are in there. When they come out it is as if no time has passed for them.

Also i will change his age to 23 to make things easier.

I do have one question about parents. Do they have to be actuall ponies from before the great death or can they be made up ones?

Actually, we prefer that they are made up ones... but these two are fine...

i'll comment on the rest in a bit...

I have made the needed changes to his bio. Let me know if there is anything else I need to add/change.

Sider- 01-07-2006
For now, could he just be able to wink out inanimate objects and have him working on living things or not quite figured out he can do this with living things?

Besides, it may prove interesting to play out the day he has to attempt this.

To summarize,
Yes, he is able to wink out living things but he hasn't figuredthis out yet. How does this sound?

One more thing... does he have to be in physical contact with the item before he can teleport it?

Yea that would work. It would be a neat thing to have him learning how to wink living things as the story goes along.


QUOTE

He doesn't have to be in contact, but he does need to see the object in question.


I have added these changes to his Bio.

Sider- 01-09-2006
Sorry about all the hoops...

(heh, a little trainer humor here wink.gif )

Just being able to see something and wink it out seems to be far more advanced than winking out living things... could you switch it physical contact is needed? Pwease?

thanks!

After this part is editted in the bio I can give you an approval (you'll still need one more, but it's a start)

black heart- 01-09-2006
Not a prob. biggrin.gif

Sider- 01-09-2006
Cool thanks for changing that around...

thought I'd make one comment though...

The ponies of light really we're too magical... no noe really had magic unless they were unicorns. So... How do you figure that his mother knew about his power before he did? Just curious... I know, I know... more hoops... sorry 'bout that. Lets just say I'm, uh, helping you prepare for when those cubs get bigger!;)

Hey Adam, this is a pretty neat character concept! biggrin.gif

I think Sider has handled most of the problems so I'm just here to take a second look and provide that second approval you'll need ^_~

Are you still planning on changin his age to 23?

QUOTE

I don't think you really need to, especially now that his parents are made up and not Hasbro G1s. Just my thoughts.

So his mother was a unicorn? That would explain why his mother knew, Sider. Adam did you change that after she made her last post? Maybe his mother's talent beyond winking was being able to figure out other unicorn's abilities. *shrug* just an idea.

I think if the object is within tough range (he can touch it) or say up to a pony length away he should be able to PD it. That way if say a boulder were falling and was about to land on A friend of Finders he could take it away and deposit it on the ground safely. biggrin.gif He is in his 20's I think he's probably had at least that much of experience.

Sider? Other mods? What say yous? Once this is dicussed I'll approve.

black heart- 01-10-2006
Yea that sounds good,however i like Sider's idea of him not being able to wink something unless he can touch it. I was thinking as he plays out there can possibly be a situation where he would have to wink something he cant touch. It could be something he has been working on but has not been able to accomplish yet,but when the situation presents itself he does it out of instinct. Just a thought. It would add another element to his character that i could play with in the story.

I had changes it,but forgot to post the change. Sorry Sider sad.gif

Sider- 01-10-2006

You still need one more approval though...

Have any ideas as to where you're deploying this fella?
