Question of the Week #115 · 2:13am Jul 19th, 2023
Hello everyone and this is the question of the week.
Well, the last couple blogs I did involving my rpg had
little to no comments at all, so I will assume that that indicates that none of you are interested in those kind of questions.
That's fine, that doesn't hurt my feelings.
Lol. 
So, as many of you know, I've been working on this radio broadcast story idea and the main character is named Compressed Cue. Below is a description from a previous blog:
Compressed Cue (the Splendid Sir Scorpio)
Gender: Male (Stallion)
Race: Earth Pony
Appearance: A light gray coat with a black mane with lime green highlights. His eyes are purple. On the left side of his face is a birthmark that is white and contorted. His cutie mark is of a vinyl record enveloped in purple flames.
Backstory: Cue lives in the town of Maretime Bay, working as a late night DJ at 91.39 The CHILL, where he takes on the radio personality of the Splendid Sir Scorpio or Scorpio for short. Due to his birthmark and the fact that he has a tendency to scowl when he is concentrating or thinking, most ponies tend to keep their distance. While most ponies are so keen on Cue, many of them love the radio personality of Scorpio, not knowing that they are one and the same.
Likes: music, cats, sleep.
Dislikes: snobby ponies, dogs (they scary), headaches, the absence of sound.
Now I will confess that I am still not sure if I want to keep this physical appearance or maybe change it to something else.
One thought I did have was maybe picking a background pony fron MLP Gen 5 and remodeling Compressed Cue to be a twin brother to the chosen background pony and adjusting his appearance around them (he will still have the birthmark on his face).
Maybe he could be a twin of one of these three:

So, what do you all think? Should I stick with the current description or make him a twin?
Thank you all for coming. Have a great day.
I wasn't able to come up with new ideas for ya, sorry about that.
Is the pony you're talking about the one in the picture?
5738493 One in the picture? There's a picture?

The previous post had a picture
5738495 Oh, no, that's something different.
So, this is one of a series of blogs where I ask my followers a question(s) once per week. It's a different question this week.

Oh ok
I’ve never played rpgs before, so I didn’t have much to add there
Making him a twin could add some interesting dynamics to when he’s not in the studio, but on the air, it might not make much of a difference.
Unless he’s like ‘my twin did this’ and now everyone’s asking everyone if they’re a twin to see if they can find him.
5738501 One thought I did kind of have, is the idea that maybe somepony might see him from behind, think he is the "good/normal" twin, but as soon as they see his birthmark and realize that he's the "other one," they try to leave.
5738504
Yeah, that kind of thing, the twin is much more popular.
5738511 Now of the ponies in the picture, are there any you think look like they could be a radio dj, or should I continue searching?
5738515
I like the one in the middle, but that could be because he’s got similar colors to Hitch. The one on the left makes me think of Derpy (which isn’t bad) and the one on the right has a manestyle I’m not sure I’m feeling.
5738518 Yeah, I was currently leaning toward the guy in the middle as well. Sadly he is currently an unnamed background pony. I suppose that means I can make up stuff for him then.
Apparently he does have a cutie mark of a skateboard so that kind of helps.
