I can't tell you who I am. I don't know who I am. All I know is I need to play a game with the thief that stole my identity to find out.
I woke up in a steeple at the top of the bell tower with no true memories of my past, only vague recollections of the events that led me there. It wasn't long after leaving the steeple that the thief who stole my identity confronted me in the night.
He laughed at my predicament before posing a challenge to me. The prize of this challenge? Earning my identity and life back.
I had no reason to refuse him, since all he has to do is kill me to keep my identity forever. And yet he wants to play a game with me? I'm not questioning it, though. It's my only way to figure out who I am.
He told me that I'm a resident of the town called Ponyville, specifically one of six ponies. Since he's one of them, he's going to make it difficult for me to determine who he is...who I am. He's laid out some rules and guidelines for me to follow, but I don't trust him on those. He seems like the kind to change the rules as he plays the game.
I don't care. I need to play his game. I have to. Otherwise, he'll be me, and I'll be...nothing.

Hoo boy, this crossover will be an interesting one. I'm mashin up MLP and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door this time, so buckle up and get ready for a bumpy ride.

Why am I thinking the one Doopliss chose is Rarity?
4009419 You're wrong, it's Spike.
4009432 NO in descrituon it say ONE OF THE MANE 6
4009570 Of course it is, I'm just messing with you.
Doopliss was one of my favorite characters in Thousand Year Door. So you can bet anything I'm following this!
He said in the second chapter he would tip his hat to slick. The only one who wears a hat is Applejack.
He made, references to all six of the Elements:
However, only THREE of those references were italicized: generosity, laughter, and friendship(which I am saying is the same as Magic because Friendship IS Magic). Now, if only one weren't italicized, I'd be willing to think you just forgot to italicize it. But, three seems more like a pattern to me. As such, here's my theories:
The italicized ones are the clues to who Doopliss is, meaning he's either Rarity, Pinkie, or Twilight
OR
The non-italicized words are the clues, meaning he's either Rainbow, Flutters, or AJ
I'll admit, it's not much to go on, but at least now we have a 50/50 chance of having a 33.3% chance of getting it right, whereas before we had a flat 16.6% chance of being right.
4024800 I'm pretty much betting on its Fluttershy's body he stole.
4066969 Well, at least you have your mind made up. Personally, I'm going to wait for some more clues before I cast my final verdict, and even then, I'll probably change it in correlation with new revelations in the plot.
When will you update this?
4010738 It's Twilight.
