Q&A with my OCs! · 8:10pm Feb 27th, 2019
I was hoping to get a few questions from the blog I did that celebrated me getting 100 followers before I put this up, but no such luck, it seems. Now, I'll start by refreshing your memory on each of them, then having them answer one question about themselves that you might not know the answer to. After that, you are free to ask them questions in the comments below, and they will reply to those they feel comfortable with answering. Let's begin.

Q: Maestro, what is your affinity when it comes to magic?
A: Well, I am best at enchanting, and I am at least average at everything else.
Q: Janice, what is it like to be half-dragon?
A: It's... been rough. Most people kinda are afraid of me... Though, I am pretty lucky that some people have been kind enough to look past that.
Q: Chessmaster, what are your thoughts on the hippogriffs as depicted in the show?
A: Definitely mixed. I'm a hippogirff of a different sort, back when fans thought they were half-griffon. I'm still referring to myself as one, just to spite them.
Q: Servo, what is one of your favorite memories?
A: Not being dead for once? Aside from that, reuniting with Maestro, Chess, Janice, Aurora, and Story after a long separation.
Q: Moonlight, what exactly is your relation to Maestro?
A: Tenth cousin, twice removed.
Q: Aurora, what is your special talent?
A: It's my Glisten Wind! I send out beams of light when I flap my wings hard!
Q: Story, what is your special talent?
A: I am a writer, to put it simply. My work has high praise in its ability to "take people to new worlds."
Q: Tempered, how did you meet your wives?
A: A bit of a touchy subject, but I'll keep it brief. I first met Servo's mother while visiting Minos for a job. After she passed away, I met Chessmaster's mother in Griffonstone. After she passed on, I met Nimbus in a hidden-away thestral village. It took a while after she passed before I met Janice's mother in the Dragon Lands. After her death, my poor heart couldn't take going after anyone else, so I settled down with only my children to keep me company.
Q: Nimbus, does it feel strange for him to talk about your death when you're right here?
A: Yes, though I remind myself that he isn't quite my Tempered... It's still hard to think about. Heck, I imagine it must be kind of odd for him to see me here, not to mention Maestro, Aurora, and Story. It's odder still for me to see the latter two as adults...
Q: King Eclipse, how old are you?
A: I sometimes forget myself, to be frank. I've lived a long life, from not long after Equestria was founded. And you must recall- the Equestria I rule was founded further back than the one you are most likely familiar with.
Q: Gearbox, what are the ends that your inventions hope to achieve?
A: I'm glad you asked! I see many possibilities for the Synth Horn and Synth Wings. From helping those that lost/damaged their horn or wings, to allowing those that don't have them experience the feeling of using them. Sure, research is ongoing, but with time, they will be perfected.
Q: Wind, why do some call you Phantom Howler?
A: It's because of my gift. I can communicate with the spirits of the departed. When ponies started overhearing me do so, they started calling me the "crazy pony that howls about phantoms", and I modified it from there.
Q: Brilliant, if you're Maestro's ex-girlfriend, why don't we see you more often?
A: Well, I'm due to pop up soon in another fic. Won't tell you which one, though.
Q: Serenity, how successful is your perfume business?
A: Well, I'd say... it's got staying power. I may not be a big name in the market, but my clientele are as loyal as they come.
Q: Thunder, do you have any relation to Rainbow Dash?
A: No! I'm a thestral! She's a pegasus! We may have... similarities... but I am NOT related to that... egomaniac.
Q: Cherry, how did your family escape the Crystal Empire before it disappeared?
A: It's pretty simple, really. My ancestors on the crystal side were not in the Empire when Sombra came to power, and had not re-entered by the time he was defeated and took the Empire with him. Having no where else to go, the Equestrian Government granted them asylum, along with a few other crystal pony families that had managed to escape.
Q: Concerta, did you have any family that didn't escape the Crystal Empire?
A: Well, it has been passed down that there were a few members left behind, much to our dismay. Were they to come back, I would consider them my many-times great aunt and many-times great uncle, as well as a few cousins probably at least a dozen times removed.
Q: Melia, do you walk in daylight often?
A: I prefer not to, seeing as I am a thestral. But if the situation requires it, I will do so.
Q: Crescendo, can you shape shift?
A: That's changelings. I'm a flutterpony. Our species maybe somewhat related, but we do not share the same abilities. And let me stop you right there- I'm not a "giant breezie." Those are... very strange to consider, to be frank.
Q: Prism, how did Maestro find your egg?
A: Dad's better to tell the full story, but I'll trim it down for you. He more or less found it while looking for inspiration for an art piece, and decided to take it home with him. And no, he did not steal it from some cave or roost- he found it just sitting there in the forest, discarded thoughtlessly. He hatched the egg and raised me as his own- and that's why I call him dad.
Q: Sarah, you've got a strange dichotomy when it comes to your relationship with Maestro. In one fic, you're his ex-girlfriend, and in another you're his girlfriend. How do you feel about that?
A: I cope by reminding myself that in an altered setting, altered results are bound to happen. Besides, while in the reality of the fic, most of us aren't aware of how things are elsewhere, so it makes it a bit easier that way. It's only when taken out of that context that we even need a reason to cope at all.
Question. Why and how do you have so many OC’s?
5020884
I've got a lot of them because I just have so many character ideas in my head. Technically there are more, but I could only fit so many using unique fonts.
5021096
That makes sense.
Who (the O.C.) do you love ?
5020884
You could ask me the same thing
5021096
Me 2 !
5021162
Um, which OC is this question directed at?
5021328
All of them !
or at the lest the ones that do have love

Alright then, let's run down the list. Maestro?
Well, it's kinda complicated. In DMOGP, I love Sarah Von Strokenheimer. In most other universes, I'm not far enough along to have a love interest just yet. Though, I will say that a few of them will have differing results as to who it ends up being.
Chessmaster?
I only have a love interest in DMOGP, that being Brilliant Dawn or as you know her, Brianna. I don't have enough development anywhere else to have one.
Moonrise?
Spoilers! I'm not telling you that!
Tempered?
I loved all my wives, I'll have you know. All four of them were equal in my eyes. You've only met one of them, though.
Nimbus?
My dear Tempered, of course. I knew he had two others before me, but I don't care about that too much. Even with knowing that after I pass on he'll find a new one, I don't really mind too much.
Eclipse?
She's long since left this realm, unfortunately. Lonely is the head that wears the crown...
Gearbox?
In DMOGP, I love Trixie. I haven't been well-developed anywhere else, so I don't have one outside that.
Wind Shard?
Well, due to my recent anthrofication in chapter 34 of DMOGP, Natalie. Outside of that fic, I don't have one.
Brilliant Dawn?
I only have a presence in DMOGP so far, and in there I love Chessmaster. Though, things are bound to get crazy in the near future...
Prism?
I have an interest in Spike, of course! Though, not every fic follows that thread.
Sarah?
Maestro, mostly. I've only ever appeared in one other fic aside from DMOGP, and in there I was his ex. I... don't like to think too much on it, to be honest.
Sorry if they confused you a bit. They have presence in multiple realities, and that tends to make things a bit complicated. The ones that didn't answer are not far enough along to have an interest in anyone just yet.
