Taija

Postby Aurealis » Sun Jan 13, 2013 6:42 am

I've been meaning to create a pony that represents me for awhile now... and I think that this is her. You may ask yourself what her cutie mark means, and I have a bit of a story that goes behind it.

History of the Lost wrote:
Long, long ago, there was an old race of ponies whose cutie marks showed, not the simple symbol that represented their talents, but a far older set of ancient runes. These runes were only ever seen on those among the ponies that could understand the powers that they percieved and in some cases could wield. These strange markings where thought to be cursed and shamful things by the other regular ponies. However, this assement was FAR from the truth. These cutie marks were derived from elemental and cosmic understandings, and "abilites". Most of these ponies were shunned from society, because none could understand their strange ways. They were cast off, and their abilities were lost to the ends of the world.

Until now....

New ponies have emerged with these bizarre markings, and have brought back the old understandings. This pony's markings ^^, symbolizes the flow of the unvierse and that all life and energy is connected on various "levels" (what those "levels" are, can be interpreted in many different ways, of which I won't go into here.) This arcane magic is as old as the power of friendship itself (of course much less powerful seeing that it has spawned in an individual instead of a group), and therfore must be used wisely, and be kept in the hooves of those that can understand the powers they wield. For this reason, these ponies tend to be reclusive and stay on the fringes of pony society, in fear of being discovered for what they really are.

Taija is wise and thoughtful, but can't physically affect anything with her talent. She can percieve the flux of life and emotional energies. These "visions" come to her in waves of life, that she see glowing around people, animals, pets, EVERYTHING! It is like her eyes can see the energy of life that is being radiated off of the living. This reminds her that no matter what, everyone is connected to eachother through our common mingling vibes and colors of life.


My girl wears knit hoove gloves (like mine) and a pendant that symbolises life itself. I've actually made the pendant out of clay that she wears. I won't bore you with the details, but the pendant basically represents the essence that we, as intellectual and emotional beings have with the natural and non-physical world.

Thank you very much for reading this. :D I would love to hear any comments you may have!
