*Fallout Equestria batpony

by ThatDarnPony*

A side character for something I’m doing. Batponies were rarely touched (except by PH), so I decided to mess with them a little. For the sake of argument, they are a lot like bats- several are blind, or with such poor eyesight they may as well be blind. Their hearing, however, is fantastic, so they aren’t at as much of a disadvantage as others might believe. They can use echolocation in confined areas to great effect, allowing them to act in complete darkness without problems. They can also shriek loud enough to cause some pretty intense pain or disorientation.

This particular character, Snake Eyes, is freelance “thief.” She works with a couple other guys to make high level robberies (think “robbing Tenpony blind” level stuff). She uses humming and song to disguise her echolocation while in public. She has a bit of a language barrier (Batponies never spoke regular language) too, so is very proper in her speech and never shortens phrases (don’t = do not). This makes her the Charisma girl of the group. She also often jokes about vampirism a lot, though she’s completely vegetarian.

Her particular “clan” used an unfinished stable near the crystal mountains like a cave, hence the color of the poncho she wears. Had a friend (one of the other robbers she works with) read to her a Crystal Pony military manual which included use of spears/lances in martial arts, so she’s a spear fiend.

Will get to the other two when real life decides to let up.
