Wow, thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it. Now, in regards to the whole magic thing, what if the ponies job coincides with knowing a few more spells than average? I know that may not be allowed as an excuse to pretty much know every spell, but my OC's "job", if you will, is, well.......... testing spells. I know it's kinda silly, but Twilight does it, right? And I'm sure there are ponies with at least half of the ability that she has, at least I presume. My OC is a bit bookish. And about weapons, it shouldn't be too much of a problem for a middle-aged colt to carry a shortsword, right? Also, forget the whole scar thing. I was just testing my limits here. My OC does not have a scar. Thanks anyway. This feedback will really help me in refining my OC to suit the needs of the forum. As a side note, what if I post my WIP OC, but want to change it? do I have to wait untill I make my completed version until I make the changes? Thanks.
