Random Pony Table
Probably the wrong place to put this, but it doesn't seem to fit elsewhere... Anyways.
I recently dipped my toes into the world of tabletop roleplaying, with an Equestrian setting, and had a small difficulty; what happens when I need an NPC, and fast? Or just at least some vague ideas for a main character? So, I started looking around for a random pony generator. And while I found some very interesting things, none of them was quite what I needed. To that end, I am making just such a thing, probably several in fact.
For now, I'll start with the "Lite" version; a basic appearance, and a vague idea of special talents a la Pony Tales rules.
No, it is not terribly well fleshed out right now. No, it is not supposed to be "hard and fast"; it just gives some general ideas regarding appearances. So feel free to bombard it with criticism. But there it is:
Type/Gender (D6)
1. Unicorn Stallion
2. Unicorn Mare
3. Pegasus Stallion
4. Pegasus Mare
5. Earth Pony Stallion
6. Earth Pony Mare
Coat Color (D12)
1. Roll it twice, take two colors.
2. red
3. orange
4. yellow
5. green
6. blue
7. purple
8. pink
9. white
10. grey
11. black
12. brown
Hair Style (D6)
1. Messy
2. Curly
3. Short
4. Combed
5. Poofy (Think Pinkie Pie)

1. Roll it twice, take two colors.
2. red
3. orange
4. yellow
5. green
6. blue
7. purple
8. pink
9. white
10. grey
11. black
12. brown
Element:
1. Loyalty
2. Laughter
3. Generosity
4. Honesty
5. Kindness
6. Magic
Special Talent (D12):
1. Blank-Flank (Or just roll again, Derpy.)
2. Stunts
3. Endurance
4. Acrobatics
5. Stealth
6. Mechanics
7. Arcana
8. History
9. Heal
10. Perception
11. Persuasion
12. Streetwise
Changed around a bit, to be easier to memorize (for me at least)

Re: Random Pony Table

Re: Random Pony Table
Done. Sorta. I wanted to keep the idea of a Blank-Flank open though...

Re: Random Pony Table
I've always been fond of table like these. Someone should make a random treasure table too
Re: Random Pony Table
Tried my table out, and I think it's not as light as I thought... I ended up with a male Earth pony, green coat and blue & white messy hair. He is Generous and Streetwise. I ended up envisioning a pony handing out sno-cones at a fair grounds (it's the colors' fault for that). I named him Icy Fetlocks, and gave him a hat and an all-purpose cold snack stand. Not a bad NPC, really; though Streetwise doesn't fit in as well as it could. But I suppose it doesn't have to, does it.
