The game will feature 21 playable characters, all of which will have unique abilities to help the player succeed.

These abilities include:

Twilight's wide range of skills

Rainbow Dash's flying

Pinkie Pie's attack command has random effects

Fluttershy's ability to summon beasts

and much more...

Some characters have proven to be, problematic, due to constraints of the RPG 2003 engine. Because of this, certain abilities might have to be removed, such as:

Derpy using 2 items in one turn

and the CMC doing team attacks

Note: All 21 characters are at least in the pre-alpha stage, I just erased some names to avoid spoilers.

Also, the 21st character is an extremely out of place guest character with no role in the story. He/she is only there due to my strange sense of humor.
