Dusk Shines Saga - Character Profile: Derpy Hooves · 5:26am Aug 22nd, 2014
Dear Princess Celestia, After the crazy day I had yesterday I ended up sleeping in this morning, and as a result was woken up by a delivery of mail from Canterlot. What really stood out about it however was the kindly mare who was making the rounds. A simple pegasus with a really warm heart and the odddest of nicknames. As she was such a interesting conversation I've included her in these profiles on the people of Ponyville. As always, your Faithful Student Dusk Shine.
Name: Ditzy Doo
Nicknames: Derpy Hooves
Age: 34
Birthday: May 4th
Clan: Pegasus
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 155lbs
Hair: Pale Apple Green, very light.*
Eyes: A gradient from pale apple green to Gamboge**
Cutiemark: An Array of Blue Bubbles, from right hip to her left jawline crossing behind her back and around her shoulder.
Bust Size: 34 C
Occupation: Mail Courier; Part time member of the Weather Corps.***
Scars or accessories? Suffers from some sort of Wall Eyes syndrome.
Close relationships: A daughter named Dinky Doo, a Marefriend named Amethyst Star.
Personality: Kind and a little silly but always good natured and a real pleasure to chat with.
Skills and Quirks:
Flight – With soft gray feathers she is a skilled flyer. ****
Unlucky – A shock, but this good natured mare simply can't go a day without something going wrong. Just today she brought me several packages from Canterlot yet had to return because she left her mail bag at Sugar Cube Corner and tripped over the same rock in the front lawn twice.
Good Natured – Apparently a life of bad luck hasn't effected her cheery attitude on bit.
* - Very seriously light. I mistook her for being blond in the daylight.
** - I wonder if her eyes colouration is in some way related or a result of her condition?
*** - Currently suspended for health reasons apparently.
**** - Recently booked a conversation with Dash to learn more about why a skilled flier would only be part time with her troop but already its becoming clear to me.
Bonus epic Derpy Comic from a great DA!
Daily blog 30 minutes kate but better than never!
Good to see Derpy gets her own bio :D
2390756 expect her cameo appearance in chapter 4 ticket master!
2390758 Neat :D though it's likely she and star aren't interested in the Gala since it WAS revealed that Derpy knows the higher class ponies (Well, in Sweet and Elite that is :P)
I'm a little shocked to see a profile on Ditzy Doo/Derpy Hooves. I was expecting a profile on Applebloom before Ditzy/Derpy. Now,
I have to admit that this was kind of hard for me to picture.
Marefriend instead of daughter? That's new (at least to me).
'Kind and a little silly but always good-natured and a real pleasure to chat with.'
'...her cheery attitude.'
'Recently booked a conversation with Dash to learn more about...'
Finger slips happen all the time, don't worry about it. Also forgot to capitalize the birthday month.
2391028 HAHA. Yeah. I fucked that one up bad cause I was rushing it together while at work because a friend who was visiting yesterday plus watching a movie kept me so busy pre work I didn't have time to do my daily blog. Apple Bloom should be soon, only reason she is beaten by Derpy is due to the order of events in Chapter 4: Ticket Master. I'll fix these errors I made writing this profile on my tablet at work and start AB's profile sometime this afternoon to go up this evening [by my schedule at least!] Thanks again Frankie, your great as always.
Oh and for the bubble tattoo. I'm thinking about simplifying since the concept is a little odd and it does make it the biggest cutiemark of all. Maybe just a line of bubbles from her right hip trailing up her spine as if blown by the wind.
dat comic dough....
4372253 The artist has done a ton of them. Mostly humor but occasionally they get really deep and though provoking. There is one I can't share until post "best night ever' about a character nobody has predicted yet because it'll be a huge spoiler for 'best night ever', but it is so cute/touching.
